A New Beginning: "Little Goldie"
Scott Taylor is no stranger to the No Prep Kings series, and he’s always been one of the top contenders. For Season 8, he’s bringing something special to the track—a brand-new build that’s more than just another race car. This one’s got heart. It’s a 1969 Camaro, a tribute to his late father, and it’s going to be called Little Goldie. Not only is this car destined to be fast, but it’s also packed with personal meaning for Scott and his team.
The car is currently being built by Bad Habits Fabrication, a shop that’s becoming known for putting together some of the fastest cars on the circuit. If you’ve seen Bobby Ducote’s car, you already know the quality that comes out of Bad Habits. So, it’s no surprise that fans are buzzing about what Scott’s new ride will bring to the table.
From Turbo to ProCharger – Taylor’s Winning Formula
Before diving into the details of the new build, let’s take a moment to talk about Scott’s current car, Track Doe. Over the past year, Scott experimented with a twin-turbo setup. While twin turbos can be a game-changer on a prep track, they didn’t quite perform the way Scott had hoped on the No Prep Kings surface. The combination just wasn’t consistent enough. As a result, Scott made the switch back to a ProCharger setup, which seems to have paid off big time.

Not only did Scott make the switch, but he also put Track Doe on a diet—shedding around 60 pounds by upgrading the front end and doors. And let me tell you, that weight reduction made a difference! Track Doe has been lightning-fast this season, and Scott’s gone toe-to-toe with some of the top racers in NPK. He’s already reached the finals, and it’s clear that he’s got a winning combination.
The Competition Heats Up
While Scott Taylor’s gearing up with his new Camaro, the competition isn’t sitting still. Justin Swanstrom is also building a new car, and Kye Kelly—well, Kai’s always working on something new. If you’ve been following Kai Kelly’s NPK career, you know that he’s built several different cars over the years, always looking for the next edge.
On the other hand, Ryan Martin, one of NPK’s most dominant racers, seems to be sticking with what works. His Fireball Camaro and his new screw blower-equipped car have been some of the most consistent performers on the circuit. Ryan’s been racing the same gray car since Season 4, and there’s no sign that he plans on changing things up anytime soon.
What to Expect from Little Goldie
Back to Scott’s new car, though—what can we expect from Little Goldie in Season 8? While the car is still under construction, Scott’s already shared a sneak peek of the chassis on his Facebook page, and it’s looking promising. With Bad Habits Fabrication behind the build, you can bet this car will be fast and competitive.

It’s also worth noting that the ProLine MH7 Hemi paired with a ProCharger setup is one of the most reliable combinations in NPK. Scott’s had success with this combo on Track Doe, so we’re excited to see how it performs in Little Goldie.
Cars with Meaning – A Tribute to Family
One thing that really stands out about this new build is the emotional connection Scott has with it. This Camaro isn’t just another race car—it’s a tribute to his late father. Racing is all about passion, and it’s clear that Little Goldie means more to Scott than just getting from the starting line to the finish. It’s personal.
At Street Outlaws Talks, we love stories like this. Cars with meaning, cars that have history, and cars that reflect the passion of their builders are what make the No Prep Kings series so special. Scott Taylor’s Camaro is shaping up to be one of the most exciting builds we’ve seen in a long time, and we can’t wait to see it in action.
Conclusion
As we gear up for No Prep Kings Season 8, all eyes are on Scott Taylor and Little Goldie. With a new car, a strong team behind him, and a winning setup, Scott’s got everything he needs to make a serious run for the championship.
