Ryan Martin wins Street Outlaws NPK Season 3 Championship

By Anthony Caruso III | Publisher

Three seasons later, a driver from the 405 has won finally a Street Outlaws No Prep Kings Championship. Ryan Martin ended a streak that belonged to Texas the past two years.

In the first year of the series, James “Birdman” Finney won it. Then, last year, Mike Murillo defeated Martin to win the championship at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis, Texas.

The championship was over in the second round this year. Martin defeated Kye Kelley in their second round matchup.

After the burnout, Kelley had problems with reverse. A group of people had to go out onto the track and help him back to the starting line.

The Mississippi driver, who represented team NOLA, was then put on the clock. That meant Kelley had two minutes to fix the problem or he would not be able to race.

BoostedGT (Chris Hamilton) said they were good. But Martin was able to get out on Kelley and then won the race.

Since Lizzy Musi — Kelley’s girlfriend lost in the second round to Jeff Lutz — that meant the championship was a done deal. Musi was third in points behind her boyfriend before they both lost.

With the championship in hand, Martin wins the $100,000 grand prize. He also wins other prizes along with the money.

Martin presently has three wins on the season thus far. He won the season-opener that began at Maryland International Raceway in Mechanicsville, Maryland, before being pushed back to New England Dragway in Epping, New Hampshire due to rain.

The Oklahoma driver also won at Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois and at Summit Motorsports Park in Norwalk, Ohio.
