I look at Street Outlaws in a similar way I look at the WWE. Is it real racing in the traditional sense? No. But it is entertaining and brings in a large audiance of racers and non-racers. Most important to the vendors possibly supplying parts, it brings in a much younger demographic, which the vendors crave. Same with the WWE. Is it real wrestling? No. But lots and lots of people enjoy watching it, myself included. Again, a young demographic. Chief has a real Pontiac powered car, we should be celebrating that fact. If he would run it in a timed full quarter mile, it would likely be in the top 10 all time quickest. Again, some of the "entertainers" in the WWE are real athletes and used to be top college wrestlers. Now they are "sports entertainers". I look at Chief as a "racing entertainer". Nothing wrong with that. I hope whatever he runs, he stays at the top of "the list".
