Street Outlaws: New Orleans follows Kye Kelley and the rest of the New Orleans team as they try to prove to the entire world that they are Americas best. As the new season begins for the racers, Kye is on a mission to take back the number one spot from Scott Taylor. Kelley upgraded his 92 Camaro, The Shocker, with a new engine, hoping to beat the new modifications on Taylors 92 Cutlass, John Doe. As the top five racers on the big-tire list are shaken up, with three new drivers trying out, NOLA team members Jerry Bird, Jason Thames and Barry Nicholson hope their off-season improvements will allow them to hold their positions.
