Take a look at this, John Odom Returning to No Prep Kings at Empire Dragway!
This weekend promises to be an electrifying event for drag racing enthusiasts as John Odom makes his much-anticipated return to the No Prep Kings series at Empire Dragway in New York. After a challenging start to season 7, where Odom faced issues in the first race and subsequently missed the second and third races, he is now back and ready to compete.
The significance of this race cannot be overstated. It marks the commencement of the championship points for the season, setting the stage for the upcoming 11 races that will determine the season’s champion. With the stakes this high, the competition is expected to be fierce, and Odom’s return adds an extra layer of excitement.
In recent weeks, the No Prep Kings series has seen lower than usual car counts, with only 18 cars competing in the main event last week and 24 cars in the previous race. However, the expectation for this weekend is brighter, with the field likely to exceed 24 cars, ensuring a thrilling and competitive race.
John Odom will be behind the wheel of his formidable GTR, a car equipped with an older style Hemi Brad 6 motor and a powerful screw blower. This combination has proven to be incredibly potent, with the car previously clocking impressive times in the 370s. With Jim Howe tuning the car, Odom is poised to be a formidable contender in this race.
The weather forecast for the weekend suggests that air conditions will be decent, with a density altitude (DA) ranging between 2,000 and 2,800 feet. Such conditions should favor all types of cars, including screw blower cars, Pro Chargers, nitrous cars, and turbo cars, which tend to perform well regardless of air quality. This means spectators can expect a showcase of high-speed, high-power racing action.
Adding to the excitement is the live feed coverage on the Street Outlaws’ YouTube channel. Fans who can’t make it to the track will still be able to follow the action in real-time. The live feed has been praised for its quality, and this weekend promises even better coverage as the team continues to fine-tune their broadcast.
As the No Prep Kings series embarks on this critical leg of the season, all eyes will be on Empire Dragway. John Odom’s return, the competitive field, and the quest for championship points ensure that this race will be one for the books. Fans are eagerly waiting to see who will emerge on top as the race for the season 7 championship heats up. Tune in to the live feed for updates and to witness the high-octane drama unfold.
