TEAM NPP REFRESH

EDSON, AB – Team NPP will be sporting brand new uniforms in 2026 as part of a multi-phase refresh of the Alberta/British Columbia based motorsports organization.  Phase 1 of the refresh will see all current Super Late Model, Late Model, IMCA Modified and Super Stock drivers and their crew outfitted with brand new shirts and fire suits.  Team NPP owner and founder Dwight Kennedy indicates these new uniforms will feature logos from AMS Engines, Alien Race Cars and Kennedy’s company, Northern Provincial Pipelines Ltd.  New company logos from The Keg Restaurant, Silver Tiger Metals and LD Industries will also be featured on the uniforms.

Kennedy indicates that Phase 2 of the Team NPP re-fresh will be the introduction of two brand new Super Late Models.  These cars, for Team NPP drivers Darrell Midgley (Sidney, British Columbia) and Brandon Carlson (Victoria, British Columbia), are currently under construction at Port City Race Cars in Mooresville, North Carolina.  Midgley has been a Team NPP driver for over 20-seasons.  Carlson has been a casual/part-time Team NPP driver since 2017 but will now be a full-time driver.

Both Midgley and Carlson will be competing in their current race cars at the 2025 Turkey Shoot at Tucson Speedway from the last weekend of November (27th – 30th).  Midgley will be driving the familiar Team NPP #81 Dodge.  Carlson will be driving his own Super Late Model (#14 Chevrolet) which will become the official Team NPP back-up car once the new cars arrive sometime in late January or early February 2026.  Both drivers are coming off top-10 finishes (3rd – Carlson / 9th – Midgley) at California’s Shasta Speedway back on October 4th.
