A Fresh Start with a Classic Look
Disco Dean’s new ride is a 1978 Trans Am, and it’s turning heads. While the NPK circuit has seen its share of impressive cars, this Trans Am brings a refreshing and unique vibe. The car boasts a screw-blown Hemi engine—the same powerhouse that propelled his Cadillac to incredible speeds. That Cadillac was no slouch, running 3.70s at 200 mph and delivering jaw-dropping 60-foot and 330-foot times. However, it lacked top-end speed, which might be why Dean decided to build a new car altogether.
Why the Change?
The move to the Trans Am appears to be about optimizing performance. While the Cadillac was fast, this new car is designed to be faster, better built, and capable of consistent performance at the highest levels. The ultimate goal? To compete with the fastest and most consistent cars in NPK.

Early Testing at Orlando Speed World
Dean wasted no time getting the Trans Am on the track. He was recently spotted testing at Orlando Speed World, and early results are promising. While specific numbers haven’t been released, reports suggest the car is running fast and looking strong. A video of the car’s first pass, shared on Dean’s social media, shows it drifting slightly to the right but maintaining excellent speed and control.
What It Takes to Win in NPK
For Disco Dean to be competitive in NPK Season 8, his Trans Am needs to hit certain benchmarks. Cars running in the low 3.70s to high 3.60s are setting the standard. Dean’s extensive experience with screw-blown combinations gives him an edge. At one point, he had the most consistent and highest-ranked screw-blown car in NPK. While other setups, like ProChargers, dominated in terms of consistency during Season 7, Dean’s ability to balance speed and stability could make all the difference.

A Contender for Invitational Wins
Disco Dean has come close to winning NPK Invitationals many times, often making it to the finals. With a lighter, faster, and more refined car, this could be his season to secure those wins. He’s already shown he has the skill and determination—now he’s got a machine that matches his ambitions.
Looking Ahead to NPK Season 8
While the official NPK Season 8 schedule hasn’t been released, there’s plenty of buzz that it’s on the way. With multiple new cars being built and tested, competition is heating up. Disco Dean’s early testing puts him ahead of the curve, and if he can maintain consistency while pushing the limits, he’ll be a force to be reckoned with.
