hello pls nascar steve/soda headcanons (busy mostly steve) like what car would he drive and wait idk if they get to choose but also what do u headcanon that steve would drive (in like the outsiders canon not the nascar au)
ily and ur ideas pls yap to me abt them /nf
HIIIIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!! YYAYYAYAYAYAY OKOKOK SO FIRST THE NASCAR AU!!
Nascar drivers aren't 'assigned' a number or even a sponsor on their cars; the cars are made by the sponsors and different car producers, and the number and sponsor represent the team as a whole. Personally, I'm gonna say he drives with M&M made by toyota (just because I think it's funny and he's a chocolate fiend), though that would only be if it were modern. If it were to be in the 60s, yes, he may have a sponsor, but it would only be from small local auto shops which wouldn't even put the names of their businesses on cars. We're gonna go with a modern au because it's cooler. So we have the little M&M guys on his front hood, maybe with a light blue color scheme. As for his number, we can pretty much choose anything from 0-99, How about we go with 17? It's his age in the book, and he'd have to be aged up to be in NASCAR.
As for what actual Steve would drive? Probably a ford. From reaserch, the cheapest ford car in the 60s were the Ford Falcons, so maybe one of those? Afterall, i headcanon he collected the moeny his dad gave him as an apology and from work so he'd try and get one as soon as he could and fix it up so it'd be better than what he could get. BUT, that being said, he could have just as easily bought a broken or second-hand more expensive car and done-it-up just to say he has it.

Totally normal things soda and Steve did before dating
- long lasting stares into the others eyes while he wasnāt looking
- thinking āfucking god heās hot as hellā and staring every time the other took off his shirt or got out of the shower
- practice kissing for girls
- one day soda came home from working all day but Steve had only been there for part of the day bc heās a part time employee so when they got home Steve sat down and soda completely collapsed onto him and his lap and fell asleep. Steve was too embarrassed to move
- it became a secret weekly thing.
- joking about being gay with each other
- wipe oil and grease off the others face after work
- Steve would only let Soda patch up places like his chest and lower abdomen because he was most comfortable with Soda doing it
- unfortunately the same didnāt go for soda because Darry would always shove everyone out of the way and do it for him so Steve never got the chance to touch that manā I mean what
#Iām posting a lot today#if yall have more tell me rn#these r funny to me#anyway#I wanna post more abt my drag racing au#who here r fans of aus#the outsiders#sodapop curtis#Steve Randle#sodapop x steve#steve x soda#Stevepop#they make me disgusted theyāre so gay

Ive been doing some research to write a Stevepop Drag Racing fic. Hereās what Iāve gathered, and what I want to put in my fic that I think people will enjoy.
Soda did rodeos but is never mentioned to have done Drag Racing, but he mentions that fighting is almost like a drag race, which means he likes watching them or has been in them. Steve on the other hand is free rein bc we know nothing about his free timeā we know he likes cars so he most definitely likes watching Drag races at the very least. So, for the sake of my fic Iām going to say Steve drag races whether itās illegally or legally. He likes to take Soda with him in Shotgun so he can show off his skills first hand and let the boy have some fun after he wasnāt allowed to participate in any rodeos anymore.
Steve took his money he made from the DX and uses it all into paying for his car. He could be using it to pay for his bills, but his thought process is that if he can get his car to be good enough to win enough drag races, he wonāt need to worry about that. Heās too cocky for his own good.
Soda definitely prefers his rodeos, but he likes watching Steve have his fun. And heās definitely not going to stop that proud smile every time Steve looks at him after finishing a race, no matter how bad or good he did. He liked sitting back in the passenger seat and feeling the rush as well. It reminded him of every time he started riding around on a horse, the speed and the excitement.

Stevepop Drag Racing Au OCs!
Jimmy Gray (L) & Ray Baker (R)

Ahem⦠@broareweabouttoviberightnow ā¦
Jimmy Gray (Made by @dolliemarionette)
basic info
name: James Gray
nickname(s): Jimmy, known as Jimmy by most.
age: 17
bday: September 17

personality
descriptives: bitchy, lowk a brat, rude, conceited, āim better than youā syndrome.
appearance
height: 5ā10
eye color: green
hair color: light brown
skin tone: white
Backstory:
Jamesās parents are out of the picture. Yes, theyāre there but they arenāt there. His older brother was though. His older brother was his hero, and also a drag racer. He was a reckless driver when James wasnāt in the car though, and thatās how he lost his life. Thatās when James lost everything, and gained such a controlling nature. that didnāt stop him from racing every day either, he raced as soon as he could get his hands on a car so he could try to live up to his brother.
Ray Baker:
basic info
name: Ray Baker
nickname(s): None
age: 17
bday: July 24th
pronouns: He/him
identity: Pansexual
class: greaser
personality
descriptives: Follower, golden-retriever, yes-man, hype man, āsidekickā, pushover
appearance
height: 6ā
eye color: blue
hair color: black, ālightā black
skin tone: white
Backstory:
Always one upped by his younger sister, Ray has never lived in a world where heās good enough. Not for his parents, his friends, his teachers, anyone. You know how they say itās better to be third place than second? Well, Ray is proof of that. Always runner up, never winning, someoneās always better than him at something. Thatās why when he met Jimmy and he started to win, he stayed. Despite how mean Jimmy may be, Ray knows heās a good person. Why else would he let such dead weight race with him?
I made these ocs for fun bc every good story needs antagonists amiright š¼, they probably wonāt show up in the fic im writing, maybe mentioned, but theyāre supposed to be rival racers who always are the ones to either beat Soda & Steve or come right behind them in the race. You can see what kinda dynamic I was going for with them.
Drawings I made of them:

A snippet from the drag race au fic im writing that i may or may not use:
@broareweabouttoviberightnow
As their car pulled up to the party, Steve and Soda could hear it steadily getting louder and louder, not used to the noise.
The party looked like any other high school rager. It was chilly and the stars were above them, shining as brightly as ever. The once barren field of long grass and wild-flowers now brought to life by a handful of teens and twenty-something-year-olds whooping and cheering, with a bonfire in the heart of it all, brightly lighting the trio's surroundings.
Once finding a nice spot next to the other cars, Soda rushed to get out, with Sasha following behind. They barely waited for Steve to get his shit together and get out. Walking closer to the party with Sasha leading, they were greeted with the unpleasant smell of liquor and sweat. the two not making the greatest combo. Steve visibly cringed, but Soda didn't seem to mind it.
Soda was always the one for social gatherings, people always seemed to gravitate towards him. Steve not so much, his scowl seemingly scared people off, and anyone who did stick by him came to talk with Soda. They were always visibly put off by him. Just yet another reason why he shouldn't be here. Though, the alcohol was certainly a good reason to stay.
He reminded himself he didn't need to hold back on drinks, Sasha offering to get them back to Steve's house since it was their first after party. Then Sasha would just walk a block or two home.

Posting this as I am on the train to school, but an excerpt from the Stevepop Drag Racing Au Iām writing:
Steve had a car, and when he got the car it was as normal as any other car in the market. He got it for a nice price and was able to persuade the guy and make him bump it down a bit. When he first got the car it was his pride and joy, that was his prized possession.
He got his job at the DX just to pay for that car, just to say he had a car to drive around and pick up girls in. As soon as he earned enough money he bought it, emptying his bank account right back down to zero. He looked damn cool in that car and no one could have convinced him otherwise when he first got it.
One day he drove Soda out to the country with him, a place where the speed limit didnāt really exist. The road went on for miles and they were out for hours. Steve spent all day driving Soda around, bringing him to random rest stops and diners they found alongside the side of the road.
The sun was beaming down on them as they walked back out to the car, ready to go home after getting enough food to satisfy them for lunch and dinner, even some leftovers for when evening time came. That was when Soda had the bright idea, to go as fast as they could. They had only noticeably passed one or two cars on their way here, and they hadnāt been behind anyone the entire way to the country.
Steve took it as a personal challenge, going as fast as he could on the empty country roads. They had the windows rolled down, Soda had his head hanging out of the window almost as if he were a dog just enjoying the wind in his face. They had the time of their lives out in the country, and as soon as they saw a car in front of them they stopped.
The sun was setting behind them and they were still on the road when Soda said, āGod, wouldnāt it be fun doing that the rest of our lives, huh?ā The blonde boy adjusted his cap, tightening it on his head. Steve nodded, his mouth sore from smiling.
āHell yeah, it would be.ā
Since theyād gotten home that day, a year ago, heād been fixing up his car to make it go as fast as he could. He hadnāt gotten the chance to take Soda back out to the country despite how much he wanted to. The Curtisās parents died a couple of months after they went out to the country, and Darryās been too nervous to let either of his brothers in longer car rides like that ever since.
If he ever got the chance to take Soda out again he would make sure to impress Soda with his carās speed, even though he knew heād been fixing it up. But heād make sure Soda knew how fast he could go, heād do anything to see that smile back on his face. The smile that's been gone ever since his best friendās parents died.
Ahemā¦. @broareweabouttoviberightnow
