NPK's Newest Trend: The Rise of Dual-Combo Racers

In the world of street racing, adaptability is key. And in the cutthroat arena of No Prep Kings, where every inch counts and victory hangs on a fine balance of power and precision, adaptability is not just a virtue-it's a necessity.


The latest buzz on the asphalt revolves around Giuseppe Gentile, Chris Michael, and their formidable Gucci Nova. Last season, they unleashed the beast with a ProCharger setup, and boy, did it roar! The Gucci Nova tore up the track, leaving competitors in its dust, especially after the switch to the 136 procharger and shedding some weight. Their triumph in the Invitational class is no small feat in the fiercely competitive world of NPK.

But hold on to your seats, folks, because there's a new contender on the block: Giuseppe's sleek Mustang. Sporting a menacing screw blown Hemi under the hood, this beauty hasn't graced the NPK scene since season five. However, whispers in the pit lane suggest that it's gearing up for a comeback, with Giuseppe Gentile and Chris Michael at the helm.


Now, why all the fuss about this Mustang, you ask? Well, apart from its jaw-dropping aesthetics, it's packing some serious power. While S550 Mustangs are a dime a dozen on the NPK circuit, there's something about a screw blower that sets hearts racing. And with recent rule tweaks allowing for a 98% overdrive on the screw blad, this Mustang might just steal the spotlight from the Gucci Nova.

Speaking of rule changes, let's not forget the 50 lbs added to the 136 ProCharger, throwing a curveball into the mix. With track conditions and air quality playing a crucial role, the decision between the Gucci Nova and the Mustang could be a game-changer.


But Gentile and Chris Michael aren't the only ones doubling down on their chances this season. The trend of racers fielding two cars with different setups is catching on fast. Ryan, Jimmy Taylor, Scott Taylor, and more are gearing up for battle with dual-combo arsenals, ready to tackle whatever the NPK throws their way.
