The nitrous-assisted 1970 Camaro of Wichita, Kansas’ Chris Stateler struggles to get a grip on the unprepped racing surface at the second running of Outlaw Armageddon, the“ World Series of No Prep”. Stateler was competing in the $ 20,000-to-win Small Tire class at the event, which uses flashlight starts and relies on event officials to determine races at the finish line, replicating the no-frills aspects of street racing in an environment that is safer for racers and spectators.
