At Street Outlaws Talks, we are all about keeping you in the loop with the latest in the No Prep Kings world, and today we have some exciting updates on Scott Taylor’s new race car for next season. If you're as much of a fan of No Prep Kings as we are, you already know that Scott Taylor has been making waves on the track. Now, his latest project, a brand-new car that’s shaping up to be a 1968 Camaro (possibly a '69), is gaining attention—and for good reason.

Scott Taylor's Latest Win
Before we dive into the specifics of his new car, let's talk about Scott's recent success. Taylor just clinched his first No Prep Kings Invitational win this past weekend, and it’s safe to say his racing program is stronger than ever. His current car, “Track Doe,” has been flying down the track and bringing home some impressive results. But Taylor’s journey doesn’t stop there—he’s aiming for even bigger wins with his new build, which will make its debut in No Prep Kings Season 8.
A Tribute to Family with "Little Goldie"
What makes this new car even more special is that it's a tribute to Scott’s late father, who raced a car affectionately known as “Little Goldie.” This tribute adds another layer of meaning to the build, making it not just a performance machine but a passion project. Fans of the sport can certainly appreciate the sentimental value behind it, and it’s always exciting to see racers like Scott connect their family history with their future on the track.

What We Know About the New Car
From what we’ve gathered, the new car’s body and chassis are just about complete, with the motor already installed. Taylor is sticking with a proven formula for the engine, dropping in a powerful Pro Line MH7 Hemi—yes, the same setup he’s been running in Track Doe. It's clear Scott has found his groove with this combination, which is a smart move given how well it's performed for him.
Though Scott experimented with a twin-turbo setup in the past, he, like many others in the No Prep Kings world, has moved away from turbos. Interestingly, none of the twin-turbo cars have made the top 16 in points this season—a sign that other power adders, like ProChargers, are more competitive under the current rules.
Potential Rule Changes for Twin Turbo Cars?
Speaking of turbos, we’ve seen plenty of discussions about what could level the playing field for twin-turbo cars in No Prep Kings. One suggestion that keeps coming up is allowing all cars to run a 36-inch tall tire. This change could help twin-turbo setups apply more power to the track and potentially make them more competitive. While it's unclear if such a rule change will happen, it’s an interesting idea that could bring more diversity to the leaderboard in future seasons.
How This New Build Compares to Track Doe
So, what sets Scott’s new car apart from Track Doe? For starters, it’s likely to be significantly lighter. Track Doe has been upgraded over time, including a new front end and doors, which have helped shave off some of the excess weight. However, the new car is being built from the ground up to fit within the current No Prep Kings rules, meaning it will be designed to maximize performance right from the start.

Like Track Doe, Scott’s new car will likely run a ProCharger setup, as he’s already seen that turbos aren’t getting the results he wants. With this fresh build, Scott is looking to take his program to the next level—and we can’t wait to see it in action.
What’s Next for Scott Taylor?
Currently, Scott Taylor is sitting in the top 10 in points—either 7th or 8th, depending on how the standings shake out. With his first Invitational win under his belt and a new car in the works, he’s in a prime position to climb even higher next season. The anticipation for the debut of this tribute car is growing, and if its performance lives up to the hype, we might see Scott making serious waves in No Prep Kings Season 8.
