00:00:01Last week on No Prep Kings.

00:00:03Ohio, how you doing?

00:00:05All right, let's do it.

00:00:07Oh, wait!

00:00:08Ryan's team all went out early.

00:00:11That's one? He beat Ryan? Whoa!

00:00:14But Team Captain Murder Noah and Nate Sailor from Team Bodie raced in the finals.

00:00:19And Nate Sailor! Wow, what a drag race!

00:00:24That earned both teams enough points to pass Team Ryan in the rankings.

00:00:28And Team Murder Nova now holds their highest ranking of the season.

00:00:37Here we go!

00:00:51All right, kids.

00:00:58Hey, Maple Grove. How y'all doing today?

00:01:03Folks, we have a big show planned for you today. A lot of racing.

00:01:10The Invitational class pays $40,000 to win.

00:01:14$200,000 to win to the team that has the most points at the end of the season.

00:01:19We are here in the beautiful green countryside of Pennsylvania, about an hour or so outside of Philadelphia.

00:01:29We're getting ready for our tenth points race of the year.

00:01:32All right, we'll go right here. Go by my buddy Mikey.

00:01:42Team Kai Kelly has been holding down first place now for four straight weeks.

00:01:46And they have held that position more than any team this entire season.

00:01:50But Team Daddy Dave is just 100 points behind them, even though both of those teams didn't do so hot last week in Ohio.

00:01:57Kai Kelly got knocked out in round one by his teammate, Clay Cole.

00:02:01And Dave hasn't made it out of the first round in the past three events.

00:02:05That's gave a couple other teams a chance to move ahead, like Team Murder Nova, who had a great event last week.

00:02:11So, we're in third place.

00:02:13Yeah.

00:02:14We're only 60 points away from Dave's team.

00:02:17So...

00:02:18The only bad thing is, they got all five in, and Doc can't, he can't get a break.

00:02:23I know.

00:02:24With four.

00:02:25With four.

00:02:26But, if we have another week like we did last week, we'll make up ground.

00:02:29We need to put them out in first round.

00:02:31No doubt.

00:02:32Now's the time to make our move, though.

00:02:33We're running out of time.

00:02:34I know.

00:02:35I know.

00:02:36And also, Team Bodie has been looking strong.

00:02:38Mr. Bowman.

00:02:39Bodie himself, unfortunately, could not make the event.

00:02:42But, one of his teammates, Damon Merchant, has stepped up to help lead.

00:02:46Having three in's been really hurting us.

00:02:49Right.

00:02:50We've been putting in work.

00:02:51Been doing it.

00:02:52But, if you think about that now, where are we in the ninth or tenth race?

00:02:54It's 90 to 100 points right there.

00:02:56Yeah.

00:02:57It's a lot.

00:02:58It would have made a big difference if I was there with you guys, but...

00:03:00Like I said, it ain't been for lack of effort.

00:03:01We know it's fast.

00:03:02Yeah.

00:03:03It's been looking really good.

00:03:04You're in.

00:03:05We've got rounds to go today.

00:03:06Yeah.

00:03:07Got rounds to go today.

00:03:08Mike Bowman was able to successfully race his way into the main event.

00:03:11This will be the first time that Team Bodie has had four racers in the invite.

00:03:18Meanwhile, Ryan Martin's team is having a little bit more trouble.

00:03:21Last week, Ryan traded Chuck for Jerry Bird.

00:03:24But, unfortunately, Jerry Bird was unable to race his way in.

00:03:27That, along with mediocre performances from the rest of the team, forced him to drop two spots in the rankings.

00:03:33The reason why we came here first is to welcome you guys to our team.

00:03:37I think that we can help you guys get a little faster, and that part, I'm ecstatic about.

00:03:42We're all stoked.

00:03:43Together, we're gonna get this deal turned around, and it's gonna be a great move for our team.

00:03:46Y'all know I love you.

00:03:47No.

00:03:48Thank you, man.

00:03:49I appreciate it.

00:03:50Yeah.

00:03:51And I'm glad to have you.

00:03:53Get after it.

00:03:54See what happens.

00:03:55I just hope we don't get each other.

00:03:56We got all five in.

00:04:01We are 60 points behind Ryan, and I think Kai and them, they're still in first.

00:04:06They got a pretty big lead, but we're coming up on the races, we're really gonna count.

00:04:11But we're gonna have points and a half, points and a half, and double points at the end.

00:04:15Last year, you and John capitalized a lot on that points and a half, double points there at the end.

00:04:19I do, too.

00:04:20I would love to.

00:04:21Nobody's out of it yet.

00:04:22I mean, Disco Dean may be out.

00:04:24He's, I don't know if he's even got a chance, honestly.

00:04:27Look at that.

00:04:29Bread crumb.

00:04:30That's like a ginger.

00:04:32Finally, we have Mike Murillo and Disco Dean's teams who have had a really rough year.

00:04:37They each have less than half the points of Team Kai Kelly, and they're running out of time to catch up.

00:04:42Our main concern is, obviously, Larry's been doing pretty good.

00:04:45The rest of the team over here has been struggling, riding the struggle bus.

00:04:48We made the change.

00:04:49We got Chuck on the team, tried to change our luck up.

00:04:51Jerry's over here.

00:04:52Booted that worthless ass Jerry Bird out of here that couldn't get in.

00:04:54Yeah.

00:04:55So, I mean, he's out of here.

00:04:56Kicking the .

00:04:57Yeah.

00:04:58I'm good.

00:04:59I got big shoes to fill.

00:05:00You know I only wear nine and a half, right?

00:05:02Yeah.

00:05:03Last week, we had a lot of back and forth with trades.

00:05:06But this week, there were only two changes.

00:05:09Dave dropped Kyle Canyon, who was unable to make it to the event, and picked up Reaper.

00:05:14And Bodie replaced himself with Tim Brown.

00:05:21Team Disco Dean did not have much success racing their way in, so they only have two drivers racing in the main event today.

00:05:29And the deal he made proved to be better for Ryan, as Jerry Bird was able to race his way in and make it into the main event.

00:05:36Which now means Ryan has all five of his drivers in today.

00:05:40That should give him a good chance at crawling back up the leaderboard.

00:05:46You wore an Earnhardt shirt.

00:05:48You wore an Earnhardt shirt for a drive.

00:05:50Lizzie.

00:05:51Lizzie.

00:05:52What?

00:05:53Oh, God.

00:05:54That's it.

00:05:55This is getting really out of control.

00:05:57What the ?

00:05:58I'm sad that you can actually fit in that.

00:06:01Where's Cassia?

00:06:03You look like a little pregnant water snake in that sweater.

00:06:07All right, folks.

00:06:11We are now at the point in time where I ask my drivers, go ahead and draw from the bucket.

00:06:15There are 32 drivers that are going to draw chips for their pairings.

00:06:18Oh, God.

00:06:20Oh, God.

00:06:22Oh, God.

00:06:27Oh, my God.

00:06:28No.

00:06:30There are some very interesting match-ups coming into round one.

00:06:36Ryan drew his new teammate, Jerry Bird, which is a tough draw for him since it's his first time back in the Invitational since Idaho.

00:06:45Ain't nobody trading with him.

00:06:47That could have went better.

00:06:51Hey, you want to trade him back real quick?

00:06:53No, we're good.

00:06:54We're good.

00:06:55Lizzie Musi drew Tony McKinney, who actually was able to take her out in the first round of last week.

00:07:04Then Damon Merchant from Bodie's team ended up drawing Clay Cole from Team Kai.

00:07:09Both those drivers have been earning a ton of points for their team, but that will not be the case for one of them today.

00:07:14All right, folks.

00:07:15We're going to go ahead and get the starting line cleared off, and we're going to go ahead and get this show started.

00:07:20Invitational first round coming at you right now.

00:07:23That is going to be Mike Bowman going up against Justin Swanstrom.

00:07:27If he outruns me, then he's got to make a stellar run.

00:07:32Whether or not he knows that, who knows?

00:07:34We're going to see.

00:07:35It's got to be consistent.

00:07:36Huh?

00:07:37It's got to be consistent.

00:07:38Yeah.

00:07:39Yeah.

00:07:40I mean, we know we're making good runs, so.

00:07:42We're in the Invitational, and I'm super stoked because I haven't been there for a while.

00:07:46So I'm getting ready to race Justin Swanstrom.

00:07:49They're telling me he hadn't made that good of licks yesterday, and I have.

00:07:53So I got to build some points.

00:07:55So every round counts.

00:07:56Got to make it happen.

00:07:57It starts today.

00:08:08It's been, you know, four or five races since I've been able to get out of first round.

00:08:11So hopefully we can change that today.

00:08:13We got a new color scheme, and we got all five drivers in.

00:08:16Hopefully we can all win, go to the next round, gain some points.

00:08:19I think we're only like 60 points behind Ryan Morin.

00:08:21Let's just see if we can go out there and do our job, see if we can win, and go on to the second round.

00:08:25And Justin Swanstrom takes the win. Nice pass from both cars.

00:08:30Hell yeah.

00:08:31Woo!

00:08:32Holy .

00:08:33I was able to cut him on the tree, and I was able to win that race.

00:08:35Very, very exciting for my crew, me, everybody.

00:08:36I mean, we've been struggling so many races.

00:08:37So just get it out of first round, and let's see if we can go more rounds of the race.

00:08:40That one.

00:08:41I went red.

00:08:42Let's go!

00:08:43Yes!

00:08:44Let's go!

00:08:45Let's go!

00:08:46You two two hold!

00:08:47You one two take many looting.

00:08:48Let's go!

00:08:49Here .

00:08:50And one two turn is the hoy Martha Brazio.

00:08:51Look at that.

00:08:52That one take one

00:09:08Let's go!

00:09:10Let's go!

00:09:12Yeah, bud!

00:09:13Yeah!

00:09:15Next pair coming at you right now.

00:09:17I got Jim Howell going up against Kai Kelly.

00:09:19I hate having Jim Howell.

00:09:21Man, I don't know if you thank him, man.

00:09:26I don't, man, but if we're conservative,

00:09:30we're going to get our ass whooped, I think.

00:09:32Me and Jim Howell, we always go back and forth.

00:09:34He's one of the guys that kind of intimidate me

00:09:36because he can pull a really fast pass out of his ass,

00:09:39especially first round, you know?

00:09:41If somebody don't have nothing to lose first round,

00:09:42they can swing at it, and they either beat you or they don't.

00:09:44It don't matter.

00:09:45So that's the kind of guy Jim Howell is,

00:09:46and I hate drawing somebody like that first round.

00:10:01I feel like we've got the faster car.

00:10:03So drawing Kai is not a bad thing in my eyes,

00:10:05but it is a tough draw first round.

00:10:07I need to gain points.

00:10:08You know, that's the thing.

00:10:09And the only way to do that is to beat the guys at the top.

00:10:24Next pair coming at you right now.

00:10:25I got Jim Howell in the left lane going up against Kai Kelly.

00:10:27Kai Kelly in the right lane.

00:10:29All right, so Jim Howell gets the win.

00:10:32Kai Kelly goes red.

00:10:33Good job.

00:10:34You made a good hit?

00:10:35That tree take forever for you?

00:10:36Dude, I almost let go of the button.

00:10:38He left before the tree came off.

00:10:40The light situation, man.

00:10:41I went up there.

00:10:42It's just a long light.

00:10:43I let go.

00:10:44It's just one of those things.

00:10:45It sucks.

00:10:46You know?

00:10:47If there really nothing you can do about it, just fuite.

00:10:48Yeah.

00:10:51He wasn't a grown man.

00:10:52He would just cry.

00:10:53You made a good hit?

00:10:58That tree takes forever for you?

00:11:00Dude, I almost let go of the button.

00:11:02He left before the tree came off.

00:11:05In the light situation, man, I went up there, just a long light.

00:11:08I let go.

00:11:09Just one of those things.

00:11:10It sucks, you know?

00:11:12Ain't really nothing you can do about it.

00:11:14If he wasn't a grown man, he'd just cry.

00:11:16Or drive off the end of the racetrack or something.

00:11:18But whatever.

00:11:19You can't take it back.

00:11:21Can't fix it.

00:11:21It is what it is.

00:11:24On to the next one.

00:11:27That was a long tree.

00:11:28I thought they went to sleep on us.

00:11:31I didn't.

00:11:34All right, next pair, we got Scott Taylor going up against Murder Nova.

00:11:39It's out of control, man.

00:11:41At this point, if you go up there and you're not in your right mind

00:11:44and you are not ready to do your job flawlessly,

00:11:48you're going to lose.

00:11:50Push it right to the limit each round.

00:11:53Yeah.

00:11:54As competitive as it can get, man.

00:11:56I draw Scott Taylor.

00:11:57Scott's struggling a little bit right now.

00:11:59I know how fast his combination is

00:12:02because it's the same combination I have.

00:12:04And I can't take him lightly.

00:12:06Scott's a good racer.

00:12:07He's going to get it figured out.

00:12:09Murder Nova has been killing it.

00:12:19That is a tough draw.

00:12:21You know, we've been stinking a little bit lately.

00:12:22We had a bunch of stuff that just kept fighting us.

00:12:25But we found a lot in our program the last couple passes.

00:12:27I think we're going to put up a good fight.

00:12:29It's going to come down to inches.

00:12:30Murder Nova takes the win.

00:12:49Nice pass there for Sean.

00:12:51He will move on to the next route.

00:12:52I don't know if I let go of the button first,

00:12:58but I got to the finish line first.

00:13:01We made a good pass.

00:13:03It made every bit of the pass that we put in it.

00:13:06We got this win out of the way on to round two.

00:13:10Nice job, Bob.

00:13:12In that slump, dude.

00:13:13Yeah, I made a good one.

00:13:14Yeah, I know.

00:13:14Yeah.

00:13:15I'm just in that slump.

00:13:16Well, we never raced Paige before,

00:13:25so this will be the first.

00:13:26I don't know if she's fast or not.

00:13:28I don't know.

00:13:28I've only got to see a couple of her runs,

00:13:30but they have been here.

00:13:31They look good, yeah.

00:13:33We're here at Maple Grove.

00:13:34First round driver's meeting.

00:13:36I drew Paige Coughlin.

00:13:37I've never drawn her before.

00:13:39I've seen her run.

00:13:40It's fast, so we're not going to take her lightly.

00:13:43Let's do it.

00:13:46Did you hear how long they're all on the two-step?

00:13:50It's a long tree.

00:13:54I'll be good.

00:13:55So when we went up for a chip draw for round one,

00:13:58we drew Jeff Lutz, and I'm, like, thinking to myself,

00:14:00oh, shoot, okay, you know, he's an OG to this show.

00:14:03You know, my dad knows him,

00:14:04and he's been here, part of this series, for a while.

00:14:11This is going to be a really interesting lap

00:14:13because I'm the new kid,

00:14:14and we're earning our way in

00:14:16and making our kind of just, like, proving ourselves.

00:14:19We really need those wind lights to turn on

00:14:20for myself and Team Daddy Dave.

00:14:22We really need to go some rounds today.

00:14:23Like, all of us full send it.

00:14:31All right, next pair,

00:14:32we got Paige Coughlin in the left lane

00:14:34going up against Jeff Lutz in the right.

00:14:36And Paige Coughlin takes the win.

00:15:05A great drag race there.

00:15:07Jeff Lutz was coming,

00:15:08but ran out of room down there at the top end.

00:15:12Woo!

00:15:13Hail you!

00:15:14It felt so good to see my wind light turn on

00:15:16against an OG like Jeff Lutz.

00:15:18This car is on fire.

00:15:20They are doing it bright.

00:15:21It is boogying, and it's just,

00:15:23it's mind-blowing to see it all kind of come together, finally,

00:15:25and we're really working well together,

00:15:27and, oh, it just feels so good.

00:15:30Man, that was a close one.

00:15:31Good job.

00:15:32Happy for you.

00:15:36So the race with Paige went down, man.

00:15:39I left with her,

00:15:40and I thought I clipped her at the end.

00:15:43It was that close.

00:15:45Man, we just got to figure out what happened.

00:15:46As soon as I look at it, we'll know.

00:15:48I just don't know yet.

00:15:50Man, this thing's a beast.

00:15:52Holy crap, we needed that.

00:15:54Ten more for Team Daddy Dave.

00:15:55Come on, everybody else.

00:15:56Let's roll.

00:15:58All right, next pair.

00:16:00Just second.

00:16:01Going up against Nate Taylor.

00:16:03I heard they were struggling a little bit,

00:16:05but I don't really give a who's in the other lane.

00:16:08I don't, see, that's me.

00:16:09It doesn't ever bother me.

00:16:10I just get in there and do my deal.

00:16:11Yep.

00:16:12I'm just going to go,

00:16:13when the light comes on,

00:16:14it could be my sister,

00:16:15and I'd still want to chop her head off.

00:16:17Right.

00:16:17We got Giuseppe,

00:16:18and they've been having a few issues.

00:16:20They got a fast car.

00:16:21They're both Hemi Pro Charger cars,

00:16:23so they're going to be real similar.

00:16:25Obviously, mine's Pro Line powered.

00:16:26His is Noonan powered.

00:16:28We're just going to put a tune-up in it

00:16:29that I know the track will take.

00:16:30We got the left lane,

00:16:31which I think is the better of the two lanes.

00:16:32The right lane's missing a bunch of rubber.

00:16:38But, I mean, realistically,

00:16:40Hemi Pro Charger, Hemi Pro Charger.

00:16:41It's going to be a coin toss,

00:16:42but we're going to give him all he can handle.

00:16:48Invitational today.

00:16:49Still working on the car,

00:16:50having some issues,

00:16:52still having backfiring issues

00:16:53through the manifold.

00:16:54We've changed every electrical part

00:16:56on the car, computer,

00:16:58everything gone through that.

00:16:59Everything's going wrong.

00:17:00We've broken transmission.

00:17:02We're just having multiple issues,

00:17:03so going into first round

00:17:05is going to be a tough deal for us here.

00:17:06We're going to just try changing more stuff

00:17:08and get back to where we were.

00:17:09Seppi Gentile in the right lane

00:17:22going up against Nate Taylor

00:17:23over in that left lane

00:17:24was your invitational champ last weekend.

00:17:29Looking to double up here in Maple Grove.

00:17:31Nate Taylor, able to win that race there.

00:17:46That's a great run.

00:17:48That's a good race.

00:17:48It's a great run.

00:17:49That's the best run.

00:17:49That's the best run of the weekend.

00:17:51It went good.

00:17:56We leave and go right down Broadway.

00:17:58We made a really good pass.

00:18:00He was right there with me.

00:18:01It was a good race, side by side.

00:18:03I think we ended up winning

00:18:03by about half a car is all.

00:18:05The new transmission's working great.

00:18:07Now we're going to turn it up.

00:18:08Now we know that she'll function

00:18:09and take what we can give her.

00:18:10And we're on to round two.

00:18:12That was a good race.

00:18:13Yeah, it was a good race.

00:18:13I was on at that time.

00:18:15We made it, yeah.

00:18:16That was a good race, yeah.

00:18:18I was like, am I holding?

00:18:19Can I get him?

00:18:20Yeah, you got it, man.

00:18:21That was good.

00:18:22That was a good race.

00:18:23All right, folks.

00:18:24Tony McKinney versus Lizzie Musi

00:18:25coming at you right now.

00:18:28You kicked Tony's ass.

00:18:30Yeah, yeah.

00:18:32Revenge.

00:18:35Yeah.

00:18:37First round,

00:18:38I ended up drawing Tony McKinney,

00:18:40racing him second time in a row.

00:18:41I just raced him in Ohio.

00:18:43He kicked my ass.

00:18:44We are a six pair out,

00:18:45left lane for me.

00:18:46Good luck, we saved you.

00:18:48It's time to get some revenge.

00:18:50My car needs to start acting right.

00:18:51We feel confident about today.

00:18:53We put a new motor in.

00:18:54It's a little bit more spicier.

00:18:56So we're going to have to just tune for that

00:18:58and hopefully make a good run against him.

00:19:00Go ahead.

00:19:01Go ahead.

00:19:06Go ahead.

00:19:11Let's go.

00:19:12and Tony McKinney goes red

00:19:41and Lizzie Musi's gonna take the win there.

00:19:44He would've had it, he would've had it, golly.

00:19:47You gotta wait for it, and these drivers need to wait.

00:19:52We get on our two steps, it felt like forever

00:19:55before the light dropped and turned green.

00:19:57That's an automatic loss, so I just held on

00:19:59as long as I can till the light was right and left.

00:20:04Right around 330 feet, it shook the tires,

00:20:06so we got lucky this time.

00:20:07If he didn't go red, I definitely would've lost it.

00:20:10Honestly, we think the motor's just hopped up.

00:20:12It's fresh and it's, you know, new parts.

00:20:14It's just got a lot more oomph to it, you know?

00:20:18So we gotta just tone it down a little bit

00:20:20and get ready for the second round.

00:20:22I was way behind.

00:20:23He just made an A to B run.

00:20:26All right, folks, next fair battle of the turbos.

00:20:29We got Reaper going up against Dominator.

00:20:31I know, really, I know, of all people, I know, I agree.

00:20:37Here, we've been struggling trying to help each other all season.

00:20:39Both of us, that's what I just told to him.

00:20:41And now we gotta race each other?

00:20:42Yep.

00:20:43Well.

00:20:44It is what it is.

00:20:45If you kick my ass, you're gonna earn it.

00:20:49If I kick yours, I know I earned it.

00:20:51How much you got on that scramble?

00:20:53All of it.

00:20:55I better have it.

00:20:56It won't put no more in it.

00:20:58That gate is 100% slammed shut.

00:21:01So coming back this season, I took some time,

00:21:04switched it over to turbos.

00:21:05We're real close on the car, but we're not quite there.

00:21:08We're going in with a semi-fast car,

00:21:10and I have to draw Dominator, one of my best friends,

00:21:12and I have to draw him the first round.

00:21:14But that friendship ends when we pull up to that light.

00:21:23My 405 guy, Reaper.

00:21:28Reaper's no dummy to racing.

00:21:30He's been doing it a long time.

00:21:31He knows his car ain't 100%.

00:21:33He even said that coming into the meeting.

00:21:34Like, hey, look, we ain't got it quite figured out yet,

00:21:36but we're really close.

00:21:38So maybe real close means he's actually really close,

00:21:41and he can make some fast passes.

00:21:53He tried.

00:22:02Hey, he gave it his all.

00:22:03He tried.

00:22:04He gave it his all.

00:22:05He tried.

00:22:06Woo!

00:22:07Good job.

00:22:08Woo!

00:22:09Yeah!

00:22:10Woo-hoo!

00:22:11I let go of the brake.

00:22:12It started to shake about 60 feet out,

00:22:13and then it started to pick the front end up.

00:22:16His got a little nasty about the 330, and he said, take off, Coom.

00:22:23I hate it for him, but I'm going to take the win.

00:22:28So it was a good lick.

00:22:30We just got to calm it down a little bit.

00:22:31It was a little mad right there at 60 foot.

00:22:33No, it still moved.

00:22:34That's why I needed one more hit on it.

00:22:36Yeah.

00:22:37But damn in the middle.

00:22:39All right, folks.

00:22:40Next pair coming at you right now.

00:22:41We got B-Rab going up against Kayla Morton.

00:22:44We've been doing our putting our 10 points in each week,

00:22:46but we just can't get past first round.

00:22:48Today, we're going to get past first round.

00:22:49I want to put team points on the board.

00:22:51I'm tired of just, like, going out first round.

00:22:53It's just, it's tough.

00:22:54So round one here at Maple Grove Race,

00:22:56we just drew Kayla Morton.

00:22:58We actually raced her last race first round, and she beat me.

00:23:01So we owe her some redemption.

00:23:02I had a couple of pistons best off.

00:23:04Now we have all new pistons and new tires.

00:23:06But she's got a really good tuner,

00:23:08and she got me tuning in mind.

00:23:09So I don't know how good that is,

00:23:10but we're going to see what happens.

00:23:11I got some stuff I'm going to try and see if it works.

00:23:13Please go straight.

00:23:14Please, please go straight.

00:23:16Hey, please go straight.

00:23:18Hey, please, please go straight.

00:23:20Hey, hey.

00:23:21You're going to win.

00:23:23You're going to win.

00:23:24You're going to win.

00:23:26You're going to win.

00:23:28Hey.

00:23:29Team Daddy Dave is looking good for today.

00:23:31The most important part is that we're all consistent,

00:23:32and we get through a couple rounds.

00:23:34Last week, Paige and I carried the team.

00:23:36This week, I need the boys to step up and do their part.

00:23:38We're only 100 points behind Kai, and with double points

00:23:41and points and a half coming into play,

00:23:43we still have time to catch them.

00:23:45We just got to do our jobs.

00:24:00This girl is just so temperamental.

00:24:03She is not cooperating right now.

00:24:05We are absolutely on the struggle bus 100%.

00:24:08We're running out of time.

00:24:09We're feeling the pressure to start doing well.

00:24:11So maybe it's my turn today, and I really

00:24:13need to set my game up here.

00:24:32Kayla Morton takes the win.

00:24:34Wow, that was a good race.

00:24:36I was trying to drive that .

00:24:37Damn.

00:24:38It starts shaking right there.

00:24:39I know.

00:24:40I wasn't going to lose that one.

00:24:43The pass was wild.

00:24:46We took off, and it wagged its tail down the whole way.

00:24:49I was not letting out of that gas pedal,

00:24:51and I threaded that needle right through,

00:24:53and it came out with the win.

00:24:54It was one of those things where I just decided

00:24:57I was going to win no matter what.

00:24:58That was a rough one.

00:24:59That wasn't the same track as yesterday.

00:25:00Yep.

00:25:02Not at all, was it?

00:25:03I was all over the place.

00:25:04And that tree was like, I almost flinched because I was like,

00:25:06I'm like, oh, no, no, no.

00:25:07So long.

00:25:09All right, next pair, and that's going to be Rich Bruder

00:25:12going up against Axeman.

00:25:16Good luck, man.

00:25:17Thank you, man.

00:25:19It's an invitational day, and I drew Rich Bruder.

00:25:22They've been up and down all season.

00:25:24The car runs good one minute, next minute they struggle.

00:25:26I talked to them yesterday, and they were having a wiring issue.

00:25:29So going into this first round, it'll be interesting to see

00:25:32if they get that car figured out.

00:25:34You got the models on or not yet?

00:25:35Not yet.

00:25:36You can put them on.

00:25:37When I get down there, I'm going to turn them off.

00:25:39All right.

00:25:40Last race, we had a mishap.

00:25:42We popped the burst panels on the blower.

00:25:44So normally when that happens, there's a misfire,

00:25:46you know, happening in the motor.

00:25:50The burst panel is a piece of thin metal

00:25:51that's designed to protect the blower

00:25:53or the intake manifold in case the engine backfires.

00:25:59We put a fresh motor in, got it all ready.

00:26:04The car's ready, the crew's ready.

00:26:06And like I said, we're going to go up there

00:26:08and make a race out of it.

00:26:25All right.

00:26:26Next pair over in that right lane,

00:26:28that's going to be Rich Bruder going up against it.

00:26:30Axe man.

00:26:51And Rich Bruder takes a stab on the tree, goes green.

00:26:53Good job, buddy.

00:26:54Good job.

00:26:55Aw, man, he guessed the .

00:26:56Woo!

00:26:56So Rich Bruder takes the win.

00:26:58Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo.

00:27:00Did you see that?

00:27:01I love it.

00:27:01Oh, my God.

00:27:02Holy .

00:27:03Gun gasser.

00:27:04Hey, and then I thought, after all that,

00:27:07you're going to let him come around you at the end.

00:27:09That's possible, yeah.

00:27:10I thought for sure he was coming around.

00:27:11Oh, yeah.

00:27:12I went, oh, no.

00:27:13Don't come around me.

00:27:14Ah, ah, no.

00:27:16Damn, damn, damn.

00:27:19Oh, my goodness.

00:27:21Damn.

00:27:23Going into racing Rich, I knew that car had

00:27:25been giving him some trouble.

00:27:26And my car's been flying, especially after last night

00:27:28they seen them passes.

00:27:30I told myself, I said, if I was Rich,

00:27:32I'd take a shot at that light.

00:27:34And that was in my mind, thinking, like,

00:27:36he was probably going to do that.

00:27:38So as the green come on, I seen him

00:27:41go about the 60-foot mark.

00:27:42I said, damn, he took a shot at it.

00:27:45We crossed the finish line, he had me by a couple feet.

00:27:48So apparently, he caught that light, I got that lost.

00:27:51That was a good guess.

00:27:52Guess?

00:27:53You're damn right that was a guess.

00:27:54Oh, my goodness.

00:27:57With all the problems y'all had, I said, he's going to guess.

00:27:59I really didn't guess, bud.

00:28:01You a lying son of a bitch.

00:28:03I promise you.

00:28:06It was a good one, brother.

00:28:08Damn it.

00:28:09I was up on the tree, I didn't know I didn't guess.

00:28:11They can say what they want.

00:28:13Wind light came on, we got some work to do.

00:28:15We got to get back in the pit.

00:28:16I got to change some burst panels on the blower

00:28:19and get ready for the next round.

00:28:21He said he didn't guess.

00:28:23Your bulbs are out before the green light came on.

00:28:26It can't be.

00:28:27You've got to win.

00:28:29All right, next pair, that is going to be Cali Bills

00:28:32going up against David Gates.

00:28:35What do you think, Adam?

00:28:36I think I'm going to take the run we made yesterday

00:28:39when it was warm out, clean it up, clean the engine up,

00:28:42and run to the finish line.

00:28:44Turned the sixth on about three seconds, about three seconds.

00:28:47Let her rip.

00:28:48We're going to go out here.

00:28:49We've got Cali Bills.

00:28:50I think we get down to the other end first,

00:28:52and we get past that first round.

00:28:53And that's always the most nervous to me is the first round.

00:28:56Once I get past the first round, I'm good the rest of the day.

00:28:58So you know, Cali's fast, but she's going to have to put a fast run

00:29:01together to outrun us in this car.

00:29:03First round chip draw, I drew David Gates.

00:29:15I raced him last weekend.

00:29:16He didn't make it down the track,

00:29:17but I'm sure they've gotten their stuff figured out

00:29:19and went and tested and things like that as well as we did.

00:29:22So it should be a good race.

00:29:33And David Gates takes the win.

00:29:48What a drag race there.

00:29:50Looked like it shook a little bit.

00:29:52Gates able to pull off the W. Nice job.

00:29:55This is a spark plug.

00:30:00Not good.

00:30:00You're not supposed to have pieces falling out.

00:30:03It actually started coming apart at about two seconds into the run.

00:30:08Essentially there, after that, I was running off seven cylinders.

00:30:12I think I still gave David a pretty good run just being on seven cylinders.

00:30:16I think definitely if I would have had all eight,

00:30:18it would have been no problems.

00:30:20Drea, you're always racing with y'all, for real.

00:30:21I know. It's always a fun time, you know?

00:30:23Yeah.

00:30:25All right, next pair.

00:30:26That is going to be Brandon James going up against Bobby Ducote.

00:30:30Stamping has shook on me every pass of the last ten passes.

00:30:33That shaking hurts, dude.

00:30:36Turn on you. Turn on the car.

00:30:41It's hard on my fat ass in here.

00:30:43Got a whole new car, a whole new hot ride day.

00:30:45It's getting faster and faster and faster.

00:30:47And whether people want to admit or not,

00:30:49this car's a couple months old now, but we should have a new car blue.

00:30:55Get in here is half the battle, race is half the battle, so whooping ass is another half the battle.

00:31:08And Brandon James takes the win.

00:31:16Great drag race there between both those guys.

00:31:21How's the drag race right there, Hoss?

00:31:22Good job, boy.

00:31:23Good job, man.

00:31:23Good job.

00:31:24We're getting better and better every weekend, so we just got to keep up the consistency and

00:31:31hopefully we go several rounds today, we kind of need to, we're at the bottom of not having to race our way in like 24 or something.

00:31:4924 is the cutoff, so we're tired of having to worry if we're in every week or not, so it's time to make us some ground this weekend.

00:32:02All right, next pair coming at you, we got John Odle and going up against Robin Roberts.

00:32:07You know, Robin won the grade eight last night, so we know that car's fast.

00:32:10We know this car's fast, so it's going to come down to driver on this pass, and we'll see how it goes, and we'll make the best blue car win.

00:32:19I'm coming off of the grade eight win, the car's running fantastic, it's smooth and buttery just the way it should be.

00:32:35John and I have a history, but you know, when he's up, he's tough to beat, so if he makes a hero pass, we may be in trouble.

00:32:42It's going to be a hell of a challenge.

00:32:44John Odle will take the win there if something happens to Robin Roberts' car.

00:33:04Hey, we got three in.

00:33:05Don't matter.

00:33:06Let's go.

00:33:07All right, next pair.

00:33:09That's going to be Larry Larson going up against Daddy Day.

00:33:12Larson, first round, 13th pair.

00:33:15Yeah.

00:33:16Winnable.

00:33:17Don't say very, because I'm going to trip on my thing in any of these.

00:33:22Very little.

00:33:23So last time we raced Larson, I got the win on that deal, but in Vegas, he went to the final, so he's not a duck.

00:33:31Like, the car's fast, and we got a fast, hot rod, so hopefully I can beat him again.

00:33:35So last week, after hurting the motor, refreshing the motor up, all new stuff in it, I feel real good.

00:33:44Like, we made a really fast pass last night.

00:33:46The car's back to where it was.

00:33:47I won grade eight here a few years ago.

00:33:49I'm hoping we can just pull off an imitation on one today.

00:34:04We won this race here five years ago, I think it was, in 2018, so I'd sure like to do it again this weekend.

00:34:10I just need to do my job, not be late, get past first round and move on.

00:34:27All right, over in that right lane, backing up the Cadillac, that's going to be Larry Larson going up against Daddy Dave in that outing.

00:34:35Daddy Dave going to take the win there, driving it.

00:34:56The car makes a hard move towards the center line.

00:34:58Dave, driving that thing, takes the win, nice job.

00:35:03I mean, not that you can see his marks out there over everybody else's.

00:35:06I mean, you know.

00:35:07That looks horrible, but nice job.

00:35:09That looked terrible.

00:35:10But he was worse.

00:35:12Round one, curse, out the window.

00:35:15All right, next pair of battle of some blower cars here, folks.

00:35:18That's going to be Chuck 55 going up against Disco Dean.

00:35:22What's up, bro?

00:35:23And we meet again.

00:35:24This is like three times, isn't it?

00:35:26This is it, it's tiebreaker.

00:35:27And then we'll dodge each other the rest of the season.

00:35:29There you go, there you go.

00:35:30That's what we need to do.

00:35:31Good luck out there, buddy.

00:35:32Yeah, same to you, bud.

00:35:33I just ran Chuck 55 last week, first round.

00:35:36He blew his up, but he beat me.

00:35:38So today, I hope we don't blow up, but we're going to try to get to win light, get redemption.

00:35:43Obviously, we haven't been doing good this year, so we needed to test.

00:35:56We stayed over Sunday at Dragway 42.

00:35:58Unfortunately, the car got away from me.

00:36:00I wrecked and hit the wall.

00:36:01We got the car fixed.

00:36:02We got the fiberglass done.

00:36:03Header, zoomy, lower control arm, rocker panel, quarter panel, wheel tub.

00:36:09Now that it's here and it's back together, we need to turn some wind lights on.

00:36:12I know it's late and we've been struggling, but it's time to turn the season around.

00:36:19And Chuck Parker gets the win.

00:36:36Nice job.

00:36:37All right, folks, next pair coming at you.

00:36:40Battle of the teammates.

00:36:41He's going to be Jerry Bird against Ryan Martin.

00:36:44It's a lot of pressure, man.

00:36:49Not just racing the captain, but racing Ryan.

00:36:52The good news is I made it an invitational.

00:36:55I'm on a new team.

00:36:56As you all know, I'm on Ryan Martin's team.

00:36:59But I'm going to go against how to put him on the trail.

00:37:02Hope to turn a new page.

00:37:03Hope my luck's changing and, you know, we're heading in the right direction.

00:37:29As a team championship, we dropped to number five this week.

00:37:33But we're 10 points behind the other three that are in front of us.

00:37:36So it's a very close, tight race.

00:37:39Problem, though, I drew my teammate again for two weekends in a row.

00:37:43Last weekend, it was Robin Roberts.

00:37:45This weekend is my new teammate, Jerry Bird.

00:37:48Jerry Bird's got a potentially brutally nasty fast car that I can tell you that probably 20 drivers here are smart enough to be scared of.

00:38:05And I'm one of those.

00:38:18And Jerry Bird goes red, gives the win to Ryan Martin.

00:38:26Over in that left lane, Jerry Bird does not wait on the light, goes red.

00:38:32He didn't get the memo.

00:38:35If anybody's going to guess, it's Jerry Bird.

00:38:48Jerry, you're going to take a shot on me.

00:38:55Get him on my team.

00:38:56The fool takes a shot on me.

00:38:58What'd you take a shot for, man?

00:39:00You didn't need to do it.

00:39:02Not only did you not need to do it, but you hurt my feelings, too.

00:39:04No, I was trying on the red light.

00:39:06Oh, OK.

00:39:07OK.

00:39:08Well, you did.

00:39:09Jerry jumps against everyone.

00:39:10But I didn't want the perception to the other teams to go, oh, well, he gave it to him because he's on his team now.

00:39:14I wanted to see, did we make any progress with this car or not?

00:39:17It wasn't as fast as what we went, so it probably would have went this way anyway.

00:39:20But it doesn't matter.

00:39:21It would have been nice to see a good, nice, close race.

00:39:23I wasn't trying to beat you.

00:39:25Well, why?

00:39:26Just, you know I don't race like that.

00:39:28I know, but I mean.

00:39:29I want you to try to beat me.

00:39:30I know, but I mean, I feel like you're going to get a call right now to win this to go further.

00:39:36If that's what you did, I'm a little upset with you because I never would ever, ever, ever, ever want you to do that.

00:39:42Sucks, yeah.

00:39:47All right, next pair coming at you right now over in the left lane.

00:39:50That's going to be Clay Cole going up against Damon Merchant.

00:39:54I got Damon Merchant, 16th pair to go down the track, so that makes me feel a little better because there's going to be quite a bit of rubber down the track.

00:40:11So, but Damon's a fast car as everybody knows.

00:40:14We got our hands full, so we're going to have to tighten up the ship a little bit.

00:40:18We're going to have to put a better tune up in it, and we're just going to have to go A to B.

00:40:21We drew Clay Cole, and he's a tough draw.

00:40:30The dude looks like he's been hauling ass.

00:40:32He put Kai out first round last week, so he is definitely somebody to keep your eye on and not look past for sure.

00:40:39Every round counts, and every race, how you start out counts.

00:40:43So, you know, it's good to have four in.

00:40:46No time like right now to get in there and start, you know, kicking some ass, going some rounds, and gathering up some team points, because this thing ain't over yet.

00:40:54All right, so Clay Cole will take the win there.

00:41:18Damon Merchant, not sure what happened, but ends up leaving before the tree drops.

00:41:23Being in this better air, put more power into it today.

00:41:31I went in, got the first bulb on.

00:41:34He comes in, I get my second.

00:41:37But it took him a little while to get that second one in, so I came off the throttle, and when I went to stick it again, the car plunged forward, and, you know, the race was over by then.

00:41:46I just rolled out, trying to, you know, do the walk of shame down the track, and he makes a killer pass.

00:41:52And it's day over for us.

00:41:55Sorry you had problems, brother.

00:41:57I wish it would have been a race.

00:41:58I don't like taking a win like that.

00:41:59Me too.

00:42:00No, no, no.

00:42:01I'd like to get a good race with you up here.

00:42:02Oh, yeah.

00:42:03I'm sorry, brother.

00:42:04I'm good.

00:42:05If you need anything from me, let me know.

00:42:07Appreciate it.

00:42:09We saw a lot of big names go down in round one today.

00:42:12Kai Kelly, Damon Merchant, and Giuseppe Gentile, just to name a few.

00:42:17Those guys are threats to win every weekend, so having them out of the race is a big deal.

00:42:21All right.

00:42:22We're going to go ahead and draw chips now.

00:42:24Ladies, please step forward.

00:42:30Okay, there we go.

00:42:31Nice job.

00:42:32Nice job.

00:42:33Nice job.

00:42:34Fellas, fellas, fellas.

00:42:39All right.

00:42:40My number ones.

00:42:41We're going to be Rich Bruder versus David Gates.

00:42:44All right.

00:42:45Number twos.

00:42:46We're going to be Brandon James versus Justin Swanstrom.

00:42:50Number threes.

00:42:52It's going to be Jim Howe versus Lizzie Music.

00:42:55All right.

00:42:56Number fours.

00:42:57It's going to be Dominator versus Daddy Dave.

00:43:00Number five.

00:43:02Slay Cole versus Ryan Martin.

00:43:05Number six.

00:43:07Chuck 55 versus Murder Nova.

00:43:10Pair number seven.

00:43:12Going to be Paige Coughlin and Kayla Morton.

00:43:15Damn it.

00:43:16Which means our eighth and final pair will be John Odom versus Nate Sailor.

00:43:22All right, drivers.

00:43:23You know who you're racing.

00:43:24You know what you've got to do.

00:43:25Go back to the pits.

00:43:26Get your cars turned around.

00:43:27Bring them into the station lanes.

00:43:29We need to give someone $40,000 at some point today.

00:43:32All right.

00:43:33Let's do it.

00:43:34I'm coming at you right now.

00:43:41That is going to be Rich Bruder driving the jackal.

00:43:44Going up against David Gates.

00:43:47What do y'all got?

00:43:48Uh, Bruder.

00:43:50Man, did they get it ready?

00:43:52They knocked the ball off the .

00:43:54I don't know.

00:43:55I ain't heard.

00:43:56You know me.

00:43:57I don't like to be late and I like to sit here forever.

00:43:59We, uh, something's going on.

00:44:03We're having some electrical issue and it keeps misfiring the motor.

00:44:06So it's banging in and out going down the track with full boost in there.

00:44:09So it pisses the motor off.

00:44:11First round, we popped the burst panels on the blower.

00:44:13Get back to the pit, rip the blower off the motor, put new burst panels on it, and got it ready for the next round.

00:44:18You know, they were waiting for us up there to start the line.

00:44:21You know, it's a lot of work between rounds to get ready for the next round.

00:44:24Does that feel?

00:44:25See, Rich Bruder just got here in the burnout box.

00:44:30Got to get suited up real quick.

00:44:33Get in the car and then we will go racing.

00:44:36Yeah, you know, my team, I've got another guy in.

00:44:51I've got Rich Bruder, which is awesome.

00:44:53So there's, you know, there's two of us in.

00:44:55It means we're making points.

00:44:56We're getting our team points towards the team championship.

00:44:59We're in a good spot.

00:45:00Not that it's a huge move, but that's at least 20 points.

00:45:03That's good for us.

00:45:11We're having some type of electrical issue.

00:45:13The car goes out and it starts misfiring.

00:45:15So that's the issue we're having.

00:45:16So we're doing our best trying to figure it out.

00:45:21All right, so they put it on a two-minute clock now.

00:45:23Rich Bruder shut it off.

00:45:24David Gates has put him on a two-minute clock.

00:45:25He's got two minutes to stage.

00:45:30Hang on.

00:46:00David Gates shakes.

00:46:01Has to get out of it.

00:46:02So Rich Bruder will take the win.

00:46:05Bruder brothers.

00:46:06They've been working on that car since they got here.

00:46:08Go up there.

00:46:09They're 10 minutes late to the call, sitting in the car, you know.

00:46:12And then I do a burnout and you still ain't ready.

00:46:14And we're having to shut the cars off.

00:46:16The car's heating up.

00:46:17They don't even tell us they're broke for however long.

00:46:19Over there with it, working on it.

00:46:21And then we go out here and, you know, the car's too damn hot to make the run.

00:46:26And we're trying to make the run.

00:46:31Get your fixed and get it out of here.

00:46:33If it ain't fixed, don't bring it to the lanes.

00:46:35And I can tell you from this point forward, no more nice guy for me.

00:46:38I don't give a who it is.

00:46:39I don't care if it's my team captain, Kai Kelly.

00:46:41I'm here to win.

00:46:43What happened, bud?

00:46:45Blow the tires off.

00:46:49Dude, I'm sorry, bro.

00:46:50I appreciate you waiting.

00:46:52Pop the blower again.

00:46:54Damn it.

00:46:55We took the wind light, but we had the same issue we had the round before.

00:46:59And popped the burst panel on the blower.

00:47:01Let's get the blower and valve covers.

00:47:08There's a lot of oil.

00:47:09That one clamp I put on came off.

00:47:10So that's where oil is all over the place.

00:47:12We're going to take the blower off.

00:47:15So we have a lot of work to do to get ready for the next round.

00:47:22So this pair right here, battle of the blower cards.

00:47:24Justin Swanson going up against Brandon James.

00:47:31Ready?

00:47:33We're going up.

00:47:34We got Brandon James, second round.

00:47:36Let's see if we can get after it.

00:47:37It's the hottest point of the day.

00:47:38So the track is going to be the trickiest right now.

00:47:41If we can get through this round, these next couple rounds,

00:47:44the track is going to start cooling down.

00:47:45The cars are going to start going faster.

00:47:47And we'll be able to start getting after it, too.

00:47:49All right.

00:47:50Justin Swanson will take the win.

00:47:51Nice job there.

00:47:52Doing a little bit of driving.

00:47:53Swanson.

00:47:54Moving on to the third round.

00:47:56Way to go.

00:47:57All right.

00:47:58Next pair coming at you right now.

00:48:00I got Jim Hound going up against Lizzie.

00:48:02Musi.

00:48:03Second round.

00:48:04Second round.

00:48:05And we're going to go.

00:48:06All right.

00:48:07I got Jim Hound going up against Lizzie.

00:48:08Musi.

00:48:09Second round.

00:48:10And end of drawing Jim Howe.

00:48:14Definitely have to be on our game to run Jim.

00:48:15His car is fast.

00:48:16Now, if you're going to go to the third round, you're going to go to the third round.

00:48:20And then you're going to go to the third round.

00:48:21And you're going to go to the third round.

00:48:22And you're going to go to the third round.

00:48:25Yeah, I got Jim Howell going up against Lizzie Musi.

00:48:31Second round, and end up drawing Jim Howell.

00:48:35Definitely have to be on our game to run Jim.

00:48:37His car is fast.

00:48:38And I feel like it's a little warmer this round,

00:48:40so I wanted to get after it a little bit more

00:48:43in the front half of the run, and my dad didn't.

00:48:45He said it was too hot,

00:48:46but I felt like now the air is, like,

00:48:49a little bit worse than earlier,

00:48:51and I felt like it's going to need that extra power

00:48:55to lead the lines.

00:48:57So it's just crossing fingers,

00:48:59and hopefully he's going to make a run against him.

00:49:07You know, three of us went in the second round.

00:49:11Jim did well taking out Kai Kelly.

00:49:13I mean, there's some heavy hitters that's already gone,

00:49:15but there's still heavy hitters that's in.

00:49:17Hopefully we can go ahead and gain some ground

00:49:20and figure out if we can go ahead and, you know,

00:49:23pull up a couple spots.

00:49:24That's what we need.

00:49:40Jim Howey will take the win.

00:49:42Nice job.

00:49:43On the next run.

00:49:49I've gone 204 on that pass.

00:49:51Really?

00:49:51I'm telling you, he's fast.

00:49:55Sure enough, I was right about being too slow off the hip.

00:49:59Light turns green.

00:50:00We both leave.

00:50:01I felt like I had him just by a little bit.

00:50:02I'd say 330 feet.

00:50:04It's just kind of, like, all over.

00:50:05Not happy, and I'm not going to take a chance

00:50:08of getting crazy out there.

00:50:10So I just, I lifted, and Jim got the win.

00:50:13Good run, girl.

00:50:14Good race.

00:50:15You're hauling ass.

00:50:16I know.

00:50:16We're trying.

00:50:17I feel like there's, like, a miscommunication or something,

00:50:20but, like, I know my dad's got this, so I don't know.

00:50:24We're going to figure out in this race.

00:50:26Just need a little luck.

00:50:27Yeah.

00:50:28Same.

00:50:29Yep.

00:50:30All right, next pair.

00:50:33Dominator, going up against Daddy Dave.

00:50:38Hey.

00:50:39Hey.

00:50:40Keep safe, baby.

00:50:41I'll wait.

00:50:41Go ahead.

00:50:43Second round, imitation of that Dominator.

00:50:45I hate racing 405, guys.

00:50:47We've been together since day one.

00:50:48It's just, it's hard putting your, you know,

00:50:50four or five guy in a trailer.

00:50:51We have been battling with bending throttle blades.

00:51:06We do the burnout.

00:51:07The idle wants to go up.

00:51:09The gas pedal dropped to the floor.

00:51:11Throttle Lincoln, we've got to push it back.

00:51:14I knew what it was.

00:51:16I killed the car.

00:51:17My daughter is running down there to line me up,

00:51:19and I'm yelling for her to get help.

00:51:22Dave being the racer that he is,

00:51:23he's not taking a win like that.

00:51:25I have two minutes.

00:51:27He shut his off and never said,

00:51:28you've got two minutes, nothing.

00:51:30Just get your car back here.

00:51:31We got it back.

00:51:32Pop the front clip off.

00:51:33Pop the throttle blade connector back on.

00:51:36And we're in.

00:51:37All right, looks like Dominator, good to go.

00:51:49And Daddy Dave takes the win.

00:52:09That was a great drag race there.

00:52:11Love you, Joe.

00:52:12Love you, man.

00:52:12All right, folks.

00:52:14Battle of the Hemi Pro Chargers.

00:52:16Clay Cole going up against Ryan Martin.

00:52:22I drew Ryan Martin.

00:52:24I got a lot of respect for him.

00:52:25He's a fast car.

00:52:27He's a good guy.

00:52:29Same combination as I have.

00:52:32So it's going to be a good race.

00:52:33It's going to come down to who gets who on the tree.

00:52:36It's going to be a good race.

00:52:37All right, let's do a good burn-out.

00:52:40Let's cut a good light.

00:52:42Let's give it some stripe, baby.

00:52:42Let's go one round at a time right here, baby.

00:52:45Clay Cole has proved to be one of the faster guys this year.

00:52:47He's on Kai's team, but he's done the dirty work for us

00:52:50and taken Kai out a couple times.

00:52:52So his car's fast.

00:52:59Do you feel the air that comes out of there?

00:53:03It's a very similar combination to this car.

00:53:05I know it pretty well.

00:53:07It has the potential to be a frontrunner.

00:53:09It has the potential to win an event.

00:53:11We can't take him lightly.

00:53:12We've got to give him everything we've got.

00:53:25All right, folks, this next pair right here

00:53:27is going to be a battle of the Pro Charge cars

00:53:29over the left lane.

00:53:30Clay Cole, first-gen Camaro,

00:53:32going up against Ryan Martin in the right lane.

00:53:37Ryan Martin right down to Broadway.

00:53:53Gets the win.

00:53:54Nice job.

00:53:55Clay Cole rattles the tires hard.

00:53:58You good?

00:53:59Yeah.

00:54:00Shook the tires.

00:54:01Ah, where at?

00:54:03About 60 foot.

00:54:06It's not the way I want to lose to you, but congratulations.

00:54:10Not the way I want to beat you either.

00:54:11I know, brother.

00:54:12I know.

00:54:13You know, we vowed to race the racetrack.

00:54:16Not necessarily the guys.

00:54:17We're trying to go as fast as we can on this racetrack

00:54:19every round, and that's what we did, and it paid off.

00:54:21I was hoping to give you a good race, brother.

00:54:23I'm sure it would have been.

00:54:24I've been worried about racing.

00:54:25I'm sure your car's fast.

00:54:26On to round three.

00:54:29All right, next pair.

00:54:30We got Chuck, 55, going up against Murder Nova.

00:54:34Man, hey, what's good is we know what number it's going to take

00:54:37and whoever can get the number to stick.

00:54:40I just don't know about the track, man.

00:54:41Yeah, it's going to be worse now than it was while I was good.

00:54:43I know.

00:54:44Both the cars are fast.

00:54:46We've talked about this all week, man.

00:54:47I know it.

00:54:47We've talked about this all week.

00:54:49We know what we run.

00:54:50Yep.

00:54:50We just got to be able to do it.

00:54:51We just got to be able to get it now.

00:54:52Yep.

00:54:52So round two, it's bound to happen.

00:54:55We get Chuck, 55.

00:54:56When you're teammates with somebody, you share a lot of information.

00:54:59I know what Chuck runs just like Chuck knows what I run.

00:55:03So whoever gets more aggressive with the tune-up

00:55:05and the track actually holds it, that's who's going to win this race.

00:55:09So not what we wanted out of everybody, I mean, we drew each other.

00:55:24Both of us made some pretty good hits.

00:55:25We both know what number it's going to take to run it.

00:55:27So it's going to be whoever can get that number down the track today.

00:55:30We're going to put what we think the track is going to handle

00:55:33and see if we can pull this W out.

00:55:34We let go of the button.

00:56:03They were more aggressive with their tune-up

00:56:07and the track didn't hold it.

00:56:10Sucks nobody else on my team made it.

00:56:12But when you race a teammate like I just raced Chuck,

00:56:15the good thing you can think about is one of us is going on

00:56:18to get points for the team.

00:56:20So I'm not sure where that's going to land us.

00:56:22I haven't even looked to see what all teams made it in.

00:56:26But hopefully we stay in third.

00:56:28Roll on, man.

00:56:30We'll see what we can do.

00:56:31Yeah.

00:56:31All right, next pair is going to be Paige Coughlin

00:56:35going up against Kayla Morton.

00:56:38Good luck, babe.

00:56:44Love you.

00:56:45Good luck.

00:56:45Be safe.

00:56:46See you on the other end.

00:56:47All righty, sounds good.

00:56:49Round two, drew Paige.

00:56:51Hate that I drew her.

00:56:52But no matter what, one person from Team Daddy Dave here advances

00:56:55and continues to accumulate points for our team.

00:57:08What can I say?

00:57:09Me and Paige got strong shoulders the last couple weeks.

00:57:11I believe in Paige, okay?

00:57:13She's like my little sister at this point.

00:57:15But today is about determination and grit for me.

00:57:19So I'm just refusing to lose today.

00:57:20I'm just going to keep that mindset all day long.

00:57:22All right, so Paige Coughlin going to get the wind.

00:57:38Oh, I think he's going to need fire rescue down at the end of the track.

00:57:53Looks like Paige Coughlin got into the wall down there on the shutdown.

00:57:56I don't know if I'm going to get it out of my system.

00:58:14Hey, no, it's okay.

00:58:15It didn't hurt.

00:58:17It didn't hit very hard.

00:58:19I'm good.

00:58:20It did not hit very hard.

00:58:24She was good.

00:58:26I won.

00:58:30Thanks.

00:58:30We get up there.

00:58:31She ended up going red.

00:58:35The car made an absolute beautiful lap.

00:58:37But as soon as we crossed the finish line,

00:58:39kicked the rods out of it.

00:58:40Oil everywhere.

00:58:41I felt it sliding.

00:58:43We hit the wall.

00:58:48Me as a driver, hit the wall like that just breaks my heart.

00:58:52And I really want to get this thing fixed up.

00:58:54But we did turn on the wind light.

00:58:55So, um, I'll take that win.

00:58:59You good?

00:58:59I'm good.

00:59:00I want to go race again.

00:59:01What do you need?

00:59:02I think we're just doing some cosmetic stuff and put the,

00:59:05you're getting what you want.

00:59:06We're putting the AMA Sherman.

00:59:08Thankfully, we got a spare motor in the trailer

00:59:10that Daddy Day's been asking us to put in every single race.

00:59:14So, um, he's getting his wish.

00:59:15But we're okay.

00:59:17I think this is fixable.

00:59:18And we're going to try to go back up for third round

00:59:20because we really want to win this thing.

00:59:23I love it.

00:59:25I love it.

00:59:26All right, folks.

00:59:29Next pair, Don Odom going up against Nate Saylor.

00:59:36Your main's fine.

00:59:37Your main's fine.

00:59:38Okay.

00:59:39I'm going to change the suit up.

00:59:41When you get up.

00:59:42Okay.

00:59:42Let's go, babe.

00:59:43And, of course, I go to chip draw, draw Nate Saylor.

00:59:47He beat me last weekend.

00:59:48I won some revenge.

00:59:49So, we got 500 bucks on it.

00:59:51Make it up there and just give it a run for his money.

00:59:54We got him, bro.

00:59:55Nice little piece.

00:59:56We're going to try to clip his ass, man.

00:59:58Do your thing, sir.

00:59:59So, going into second round here,

01:00:01I'm the only one left on Team Bodhi.

01:00:03So, there's a lot of pressure on me

01:00:04to keep going round so we can stay up there.

01:00:20And Nate Saylor gets the win,

01:00:22moves on the next round.

01:00:24And got him on the tree.

01:00:30All right, folks.

01:00:31We're going to go ahead and start our

01:00:32invitational third round drivers meeting.

01:00:35Starts now.

01:00:36We started with 32.

01:00:38We are now down to eight.

01:00:41We've got Ryan, Team Dave, and Team Swanstrom

01:00:44all standing strong with two drivers remaining.

01:00:47Also, a little fun fact, Dave and Paige,

01:00:51if y'all can go to the finals,

01:00:52you'll be within 20 points of Team Kai Kelly

01:00:55for first place.

01:00:56Where's he at?

01:00:57Here's a chance to make a comeback.

01:00:58Because he is out.

01:00:59This team is out.

01:01:01All right?

01:01:02All right.

01:01:03Well, hey, Paige, go ahead and step up.

01:01:04Ladies first for drawing out this bucket.

01:01:08All right, Jets.

01:01:09Damn, dude, I got to stop this number one.

01:01:15All right, number one, step forward.

01:01:23It'll be Rich Bruder versus Jim Powell.

01:01:26Number two, Paige Coughlin and Daddy Dave.

01:01:30At least one Team Daddy Dave driver

01:01:32will move on to the semifinals.

01:01:34That's one way to look at it.

01:01:35All right, number three.

01:01:37Ryan Martin versus Murder Nova.

01:01:40Wow, fast race.

01:01:42Which means our fourth and final pair

01:01:44will be Nate Saylor versus Justin Swanstrom.

01:01:48All right.

01:01:49Well, drivers, you know who you got.

01:01:50You know what you got to do.

01:01:51Go back to the pits, get your cars turned around,

01:01:53bring them in the lanes.

01:01:54Let's do it.

01:02:00Round three coming at you right now.

01:02:05We got Jim Powell going up against Rich Bruder.

01:02:09Let's get the blower first.

01:02:13I tried popping the blower this time.

01:02:16The gaskets out and the studs are broke.

01:02:20Right here, right?

01:02:21Yeah.

01:02:22Mabel Grove, round three.

01:02:23We've been fighting some issues with the car.

01:02:26We're going down the track,

01:02:27and the burst panel keeps popping.

01:02:28Sometimes it just pops the burst panel,

01:02:31but sometimes it can do more damage than that.

01:02:33So we've been lucky to come back

01:02:34and put new burst panels in the motor.

01:02:36We got to do that ground wire for the cam sink.

01:02:39We have the crew over here working.

01:02:40It's a Robin's crew,

01:02:41and Ryan's crew was there helping us out.

01:02:43It was a team effort to get the car back up there

01:02:45ready for the next round.

01:02:52I don't know, it shut off.

01:02:58I tried to do a burnout, and the car just dies.

01:03:12So I tried it again, and it did the same thing.

01:03:24I've been racing for a while.

01:03:27It ain't hard to do a burnout in a big tire or a water.

01:03:29So I knew there was some type of an issue.

01:03:31Sort of locked up in the converter.

01:03:33And somehow, I guess from the blower popping every time,

01:03:36the map sensor got unplugged.

01:03:38So it's just a line.

01:03:38So the extra boost came there and broke the fitting.

01:03:42All right, so here we go.

01:03:44The Invitational Round 3 coming at you right now.

01:03:46I've got Jim Howland left by and Rich Brooder

01:03:48unable to make the call.

01:04:08Well, that was probably the slowest winning pass

01:04:17in the history of MPK.

01:04:18I just decided to drive it down through there.

01:04:20I mean, it doesn't do us any good to go out there

01:04:22and make a killer lick and hurt a part

01:04:25or take a chance on tearing something up.

01:04:27So on to the next round.

01:04:30All right, our next pair coming up

01:04:32is going to be Paige Coughlin going up against Daddy Dave.

01:04:35Take your time.

01:04:36Take your time.

01:04:37Johnny, give us a second.

01:04:38You guys, take your time.

01:04:39Okay.

01:04:40No, I don't give a fuck.

01:04:40Take your time.

01:04:42Keep dropping them, buddy.

01:04:43Johnny.

01:04:44Yeah, keep on that other side and drop.

01:04:45Hold on, go past.

01:04:52So help fix her car.

01:04:54This is our teammate.

01:04:55Yeah.

01:04:55We drew her.

01:04:56Yes.

01:04:58That's terrible.

01:04:59Yeah.

01:05:00That sucks.

01:05:02Third round Invitational,

01:05:03I drunk Paige, my own teammate.

01:05:05On one hand, it sucks to draw your teammate,

01:05:08but on the other hand,

01:05:09it's one of our teams going on to the fourth round.

01:05:11Paige just kicked the rods out of her motor,

01:05:14spun the car around,

01:05:16tapped the wall with it.

01:05:18To swap a motor out and to be confident,

01:05:20the tuner's just got to know what he's doing

01:05:21to put a tune up in that thing

01:05:22and make it all last.

01:05:23And Daddy Dave takes the long way down to the finish line,

01:05:46but gets the win.

01:05:47All right, folks, this pair right here

01:05:50is going to be a great one.

01:05:52It's going to be Ryan Martin and Murder Nova.

01:05:55That was a terrible draw.

01:05:57Always is.

01:05:58I'll let you know.

01:05:59I can't draw, man.

01:06:00And you know what?

01:06:01I didn't even draw.

01:06:03You took the last one?

01:06:04I took the last chip in the bag.

01:06:05Oh, man.

01:06:06And I looked directly at Ryan,

01:06:08and I went,

01:06:08and he goes,

01:06:09and I went,

01:06:10obviously,

01:06:12I'd have raced anybody else up there

01:06:14before I wanted to race Ryan.

01:06:15No, it wasn't his favorite draw either,

01:06:17I promise you.

01:06:18Yeah.

01:06:19It's tough because we know what each other runs.

01:06:21We test with each other.

01:06:22We share all of our data together, you know?

01:06:25But at that point,

01:06:26you just got to put some fast stuff in it

01:06:29and hope your lane holds it.

01:06:33Unfortunately, my draw is Murder Nova.

01:06:36I know how good his car runs.

01:06:38He knows how good my car runs.

01:06:40All we can do is do,

01:06:41you know,

01:06:41just do the best we can.

01:06:42That's what we're going to do.

01:07:00Ryan Martin takes the win.

01:07:02What a drag race.

01:07:03That was close.

01:07:05At the other end,

01:07:06my gosh.

01:07:07Ryan Martin moves on.

01:07:11We let off the button,

01:07:13and it was a drag race.

01:07:15Couldn't have been any closer

01:07:16than what it was.

01:07:20He made a good run,

01:07:21I made a good run,

01:07:22and we got outran.

01:07:24He's coming around me, too.

01:07:25It was close, man.

01:07:26We're off to the semis,

01:07:27which is great for us

01:07:28because we've only been to the semis

01:07:30one other time this year,

01:07:31and it was at the qualifier.

01:07:33What did you do?

01:07:34Did you get a lot more engine?

01:07:35Yeah, I bet it.

01:07:36All right, folks,

01:07:37this will be the final pair here

01:07:38in this third round,

01:07:39and that's going to be Nate Sailor

01:07:40going up against Justin Swanstrom.

01:07:45When mine goes down the track,

01:07:46it's literally doing this,

01:07:48getting happy.

01:07:48Yeah.

01:07:49I should bend that back up.

01:07:51I'd be scared of that.

01:07:52I ain't going to lie.

01:07:53Huh?

01:07:54I'd be scared.

01:07:54That would have pulled

01:07:55under the car or something.

01:07:57I would have made that

01:07:57probably a little bit stronger.

01:07:59Well, next year it will be.

01:08:01Round three here in Maple Grove,

01:08:03we got Justin Swanstrom.

01:08:04I feel pretty good about it, man.

01:08:06I really don't care who we got.

01:08:07This car runs so good right now.

01:08:18The track's getting hotter,

01:08:19so traction isn't as good.

01:08:21It gets slimy.

01:08:23So we're going to put a tune-up

01:08:24in it that we know will go,

01:08:25and we're going to go try

01:08:25and put that W

01:08:26and keep gaining points.

01:08:43And Nate Sailor takes the win.

01:08:45We'll move on to the semifinals

01:08:46of the Invitational Class.

01:08:47Nice job.

01:08:48Good job, guys.

01:08:50Woo!

01:08:53So going up against Nate Sailor,

01:08:54listen, I knew we had

01:08:55to be on our game.

01:08:56It was a good drag race.

01:08:57He just put about a car

01:08:58on me at the other end.

01:08:59He's running extremely fast right now.

01:09:01But I'm happy with what we did.

01:09:02We were able to get out

01:09:03of first round,

01:09:03go into third round,

01:09:05and we're going to capitalize.

01:09:05We're going to get better.

01:09:06Next track we're going to,

01:09:07it's going to be

01:09:08a little cooler weather.

01:09:09Let's see what happens.

01:09:10Hopefully we can pull something off

01:09:12and get a win there.

01:09:13I ain't mad about it.

01:09:14We are ready for the semifinals

01:09:19here in Pennsylvania,

01:09:19and this will be the first time

01:09:21that Dave has made it

01:09:22to the semis since Kentucky.

01:09:25And this will be Ryan Martin's

01:09:26first time in the semifinals

01:09:28the entire year.

01:09:30It may have been a rocky start

01:09:32to the season for Ryan Martin,

01:09:33but look,

01:09:34he has turned it on here

01:09:35in the last half of the season,

01:09:37and he's trying to make

01:09:38his presence known

01:09:39as a three-time returning champion.

01:09:44All right, y'all,

01:09:45let's go ahead

01:09:46and draw some chips,

01:09:47see who's racing who.

01:09:51Just like you drew it out.

01:09:52I like it.

01:09:53I like it.

01:09:54Really wanted to surge at the end.

01:09:55All right,

01:09:56where are my number ones?

01:09:57Number one step forward

01:09:59is going to be

01:10:00Jim Howe versus Daddy Dave,

01:10:02which means

01:10:04our last pair there

01:10:05will be Nate Saylor

01:10:07versus Ryan Martin.

01:10:09Look at that.

01:10:11All right, folks,

01:10:12so that does it

01:10:12for the semifinals

01:10:13drivers meeting.

01:10:18All right,

01:10:19next pair coming at you.

01:10:20We got Jim Howe

01:10:20going up against Daddy Dave.

01:10:23Hey,

01:10:25you got Daddy Dave.

01:10:26I got Daddy Dave.

01:10:27Hell yeah.

01:10:28First pair out,

01:10:29we're left lane.

01:10:29Okay,

01:10:30same lane you love.

01:10:31So you know what that means.

01:10:33Let's do our thing.

01:10:34Go out and do your thing?

01:10:36Yep.

01:10:36And then you and Ryan Martin

01:10:37in the finals.

01:10:38Boy,

01:10:38it'd make a good day.

01:10:39I'd like it.

01:10:39I'd like you and Ryan Martin

01:10:40in the finals.

01:10:41Like nothing more than to be,

01:10:42I don't care who I'm with the final,

01:10:43as long as I'm in the finals.

01:10:44You know,

01:10:45a lot of things go through

01:10:45our minds as racers,

01:10:46and I was sitting up there like,

01:10:48you know,

01:10:48who would I want

01:10:48out of this whole crowd?

01:10:50The whole deal is,

01:10:51is that everybody up there

01:10:52is a killer.

01:10:53You know,

01:10:53the one I want

01:10:54is the guy that's going to

01:10:55give me the best opportunity

01:10:56to get to the next round.

01:10:57That's the guy I want.

01:10:57So we're going to race Dave.

01:11:00Don't beat up on me,

01:11:01Jim Howell.

01:11:03Why are you a big bully?

01:11:06If you listen to the internet,

01:11:09big bully.

01:11:11Going to the semifinals,

01:11:13it's anybody's race to win,

01:11:14but just staying in the circle

01:11:15with all the fast guys

01:11:16and all of us being that fast

01:11:17and everybody worrying

01:11:18about everybody,

01:11:20it says a lot for this whole sport

01:11:22and this whole NBA series.

01:11:23One of my fabulous fans

01:11:37brought me something

01:11:39called shoo fly pie.

01:11:40I don't even know

01:11:41what to expect,

01:11:42but we'll crack it open.

01:11:45Is this the proper way

01:11:46to open it?

01:11:50What happens?

01:11:51This thing tastes like

01:11:51on national TV.

01:11:54He goes like,

01:11:55yeah, shoot,

01:11:55why doesn't he cook me

01:11:56a pie?

01:11:57What if this is like

01:11:57actually like a pie?

01:11:59This guy's like,

01:11:59doesn't like me or something.

01:12:02Let's see.

01:12:03Okay.

01:12:04Look at that.

01:12:06Bread crumb.

01:12:06That's like a ginger.

01:12:08Maybe like a,

01:12:09oh, look at this thing.

01:12:11If we can get it at,

01:12:12look at that.

01:12:13You see all that

01:12:13deliciousness in there?

01:12:19It's a,

01:12:20I don't know.

01:12:22Never tasted

01:12:23nothing like that before.

01:12:24I'm going to give it

01:12:25about a 7.2 out of 10.

01:12:27Here, America,

01:12:28let's give you

01:12:29your final bite.

01:12:32All right,

01:12:33next pair coming at you,

01:12:34we got Jim Howe

01:12:34going up against

01:12:35Daddy Dave.

01:12:37Jim Howe

01:12:53will take the win there,

01:12:58move on to the finals.

01:12:59Nice job.

01:13:00There's one

01:13:01for your finals.

01:13:03I thought we was

01:13:06going to have a good

01:13:06drag race side by side

01:13:07while the car didn't

01:13:08make the one-two shift.

01:13:11Instead,

01:13:11it went right

01:13:12on to third gear.

01:13:13When it did,

01:13:13it was kind of underpowered,

01:13:14shot me over towards the wall.

01:13:16He was still in my view,

01:13:17so I didn't lift.

01:13:18I drove the wall

01:13:19all the way down through there

01:13:20and he got me

01:13:20about a car,

01:13:21car and a half.

01:13:22Our night ends right here.

01:13:24Like the weight of the world

01:13:25is off my shoulder.

01:13:27Why?

01:13:28He's been struggling

01:13:29all year, man.

01:13:30I know.

01:13:30You know what it's like.

01:13:31Oh, yeah.

01:13:32All right, folks,

01:13:33last pair here

01:13:34in this semifinals.

01:13:35Going to be Nate Saylor

01:13:37going up against

01:13:38Ryan Martin.

01:13:40I just went over there

01:13:40and was just curious

01:13:41and I talked to him

01:13:41and I said,

01:13:42how fast does he go as well?

01:13:43I put an 83 in it.

01:13:44He's like,

01:13:45he caught me at 200 foot

01:13:46and drove around me.

01:13:47He said,

01:13:47so I would say

01:13:48he goes a 70.

01:13:50He's like,

01:13:50I don't know,

01:13:5178 to 80 flat?

01:13:52Yeah, okay.

01:13:55Semifinals for me,

01:13:56pretty big this year.

01:13:57Not the same story

01:13:58as last year, obviously.

01:13:59It was like an old hat

01:14:00for me to go to the semifinals.

01:14:01But goals change

01:14:03and this year,

01:14:04me getting the semis is big

01:14:05because the only other time

01:14:06I did it

01:14:07was when it was a qualifier

01:14:08and it didn't count

01:14:08for any points.

01:14:10I'm, you know,

01:14:10behind in points.

01:14:12Anything I can do

01:14:12to make up is better off.

01:14:14So, you know,

01:14:15like as far as I'm concerned

01:14:16for points goes,

01:14:16I need to win this race.

01:14:17We've picked this thing

01:14:27up every run for today

01:14:28and it's no different.

01:14:29Made a pretty big move

01:14:30on the tune-up.

01:14:31Kind of joke around

01:14:31it's either going to go faster

01:14:32or it may not go,

01:14:33you know,

01:14:33but that's the kind of tune-up

01:14:34you've got to run against Nate.

01:14:38The points for me

01:14:39mean a big deal

01:14:40because all the rest

01:14:41my team's been out

01:14:42for a couple rounds

01:14:43so we're trying

01:14:44to gain back up

01:14:45so that we can try

01:14:46and win this $200,000.

01:15:07And Ryan Martin

01:15:08going to get the win.

01:15:09Something breaks

01:15:10on Nate Saylor's car

01:15:11here in the right lane

01:15:11took everything

01:15:12for him to keep it

01:15:13off the wall.

01:15:14Wow, Nate Saylor

01:15:16has up the brake

01:15:17over here in the right lane.

01:15:19Ryan Martin

01:15:20cruises onto the win.

01:15:22Yeah, I'm good.

01:15:26My car's never done

01:15:28stuff like that before.

01:15:29We knew we had to have

01:15:30a hot tune-up in this thing.

01:15:32I leave on him

01:15:33and about 60 to 100 feet

01:15:37the car just gets crazy.

01:15:39He flips the ass end out,

01:15:41tries to shove me

01:15:42into the wall

01:15:43so I backed off

01:15:44just a teeny bit.

01:15:45I got it straight

01:15:46and it swung around

01:15:47and nailed the wall.

01:15:51You okay?

01:15:52You good?

01:15:53I'm fine.

01:15:54You good.

01:15:57That's it?

01:15:59That's it?

01:16:01Don't be mad about that.

01:16:02It could have been

01:16:03a lot worse, dude.

01:16:24Got any inspirational quotes

01:16:25for me?

01:16:25Yeah, don't this up.

01:16:29We spent a whole lot

01:16:30of money on this car

01:16:31this year.

01:16:31We crashed it.

01:16:32Well, we, I say I.

01:16:34I've crashed it.

01:16:35I've had to rebuild the motor

01:16:36at least once,

01:16:37so this will be a big help.

01:16:39We're late in the season,

01:16:40here at Maple Grove,

01:16:41and I have made my way

01:16:42to the finals.

01:16:43It's a place that I haven't

01:16:44been able to get to.

01:16:45I've had a lot of parts

01:16:46failures lately.

01:16:47We struggled with just the car

01:16:49at the beginning of the season.

01:16:50Just been a bad season for us.

01:16:52All we know to do

01:16:53is keep our head down

01:16:54and keep pushing.

01:16:55That mentality has got us

01:16:56to the finals here

01:16:57at Maple Grove.

01:16:58I got Jim Howe in the finals.

01:17:01May the fastest car win.

01:17:03You got this.

01:17:04That's all.

01:17:04Good, man.

01:17:05Yep.

01:17:11Ryan's been working.

01:17:12Like, I mean,

01:17:12they've been testing.

01:17:13You know, they crashed the car.

01:17:15I know what that's like.

01:17:16The way that we're going to do it

01:17:17is just exactly

01:17:18what we've been doing.

01:17:19We're going to race the racetrack.

01:17:20Sun's down, track's good.

01:17:22I promise you,

01:17:23Ryan's coming to win

01:17:24the same as we are,

01:17:25so we've just got to go up there

01:17:26and do our job.

01:17:27You got Ryan Martin

01:17:28in the left lane.

01:17:29Do that, Ryan Martin!

01:17:32And you got Jim Howe

01:17:34in the right lane.

01:17:36We're going to f*** Ryan up.

01:17:37Hell yeah, we are.

01:17:38We're going to f*** Ryan up.

01:17:52We're going to f***ing up.

01:17:53Back to the car.

01:17:54Oh.

01:17:57I've won championships

01:17:58and I've won individual races.

01:18:01And this year,

01:18:01it's like,

01:18:02I just can't make it there.

01:18:03So, you know,

01:18:04just thinking about it,

01:18:05I get a little emotional

01:18:05about the fact

01:18:06that I'm in the finals

01:18:07and I have a chance to win.

01:18:09This year has proven

01:18:11how competitive

01:18:11and crazy NPK is.

01:18:14There is no easy draws

01:18:15from first round

01:18:16to the finals,

01:18:16but you've got to get

01:18:18through everybody to do it.

01:18:23Come on, Andy!

01:18:25Come on!

01:18:46Ryan Martin!

01:18:52Amazing comeback

01:18:53from crashing the car

01:18:54a few events ago

01:18:55to winning

01:18:55the Invitational

01:18:56here tonight in Pennsylvania.

01:18:59You did it!

01:19:01Woo!

01:19:02That was a guess.

01:19:04That was a guess for life.

01:19:10That man was asleep.

01:19:12That was not green

01:19:14when he let go of a button.

01:19:15I expected a red light

01:19:17to come on on that one.

01:19:19You treed the out of me.

01:19:20Nah, dude.

01:19:21I'm going to make you feel better.

01:19:23I'm not a liar

01:19:24or nothing like that,

01:19:25and so I'm going to be honest

01:19:25with you.

01:19:26I let go of the button

01:19:27and went,

01:19:27like, I swear to God,

01:19:29I thought it went red.

01:19:30I was like,

01:19:31I just, I got on the radio,

01:19:32I was like,

01:19:32he had to have guessed.

01:19:33No, I would never,

01:19:35on our friendship,

01:19:36I would never guess.

01:19:37I 100% let go of the button

01:19:38and was like,

01:19:39it, but I saw the green light

01:19:41when I went by

01:19:42and I got the one with the men.

01:19:43I know I left

01:19:44a little early on gym

01:19:45and there's so many guys

01:19:47that won't admit that.

01:19:48Look, I let go of the button early,

01:19:49nervous enough

01:19:50that I thought that,

01:19:51hey, I could have went red.

01:19:53But when I did it

01:19:54and I hit it,

01:19:55I legitimately felt bad

01:19:56because I don't like

01:19:57to be doing that.

01:19:59I don't like to do that

01:20:00to people,

01:20:00whether it's a tension

01:20:01or an accident

01:20:01or whatever the case is.

01:20:03That's just not my style.

01:20:04It's all right.

01:20:04You won, buddy.

01:20:05Good job.

01:20:05I know,

01:20:06and hey,

01:20:06this is a better sweep for me

01:20:08because I hate

01:20:09to do that to anybody.

01:20:10I hate when people

01:20:11do it to me.

01:20:11He is a true sportsman

01:20:13because he didn't just say,

01:20:14no, I've seen green.

01:20:15He admitted that,

01:20:15you know,

01:20:16he let off the button early

01:20:16and that happens.

01:20:18It's not,

01:20:18he didn't guess,

01:20:19he just let off the button early.

01:20:20He didn't go up there

01:20:21with the intention of guessing.

01:20:22But, you know,

01:20:23it happens.

01:20:24And, you know,

01:20:24at the end of the day,

01:20:25we're in the final round.

01:20:26There's nothing to be ashamed of.

01:20:27I got beat by the,

01:20:28you know,

01:20:29the man that we all strive

01:20:30to be like.

01:20:31And we go try again next week.

01:20:33Oh, that's it

01:20:34for Ryan Martin and Jim Howell.

01:20:37Woo!

01:20:41Ryan Martin, everybody.

01:20:42Yeah.

01:20:46We did it again.

01:20:47I don't think we'll be able to.

01:20:55Ryan.

01:20:55That doesn't surprise me.

01:20:56You did it, man.

01:20:58Your first final for the season,

01:21:00season six,

01:21:02and you won it.

01:21:03Is it safe to say

01:21:05that you're back?

01:21:06Oh, you know,

01:21:07I don't want to say that, right?

01:21:09Because I feel like

01:21:09that might accidentally

01:21:11put some bad juju on me.

01:21:12But I do think

01:21:13we have a badass hot rod.

01:21:15I'm stoked that we went

01:21:16to the finals

01:21:16and we're able to make it

01:21:17as far as we did

01:21:18and come out on top.

01:21:19But Jim Howell's car's badass.

01:21:21He did fantastic.

01:21:22That being said,

01:21:23at least we got one.

01:21:24Woo!

01:21:24We got four races left

01:21:27and it's four of the biggest

01:21:28races this season.

01:21:29It's all the ones that matter.

01:21:30I don't want to be too optimistic,

01:21:32but like,

01:21:33I mean, you know,

01:21:33you never know what could happen.

01:21:34We got a double points race coming up.

01:21:36We got a points and a half race coming up.

01:21:38It's kind of anybody's game.

01:21:39I see Kai.

01:21:40He's off in the distance,

01:21:41but he ain't that far as he was.

01:21:42So, for us,

01:21:43the season is four races long.

01:21:45We got to make our moves right now.

01:21:47Good job.

01:21:47Thanks.

01:21:47Thanks, homie.

01:21:49Did you?

01:21:49Ryan.

01:21:51Congratulations.

01:21:51Ryan Martin and his team.

01:21:53First invitational win

01:21:54at $40,000.

01:21:57There you go, brother.

01:21:58You're good.

01:21:59That gray car is back for sure.

01:22:01Good job, man.

01:22:02And there you have it.

01:22:04Three-time defending champion

01:22:06Ryan Martin has won

01:22:08his first event of the season.

01:22:09That moves his team

01:22:12back into third place.

01:22:14But the numbers

01:22:15in the middle of the pack

01:22:16are extremely close.

01:22:18Look, there's only 200 points

01:22:20separating sixth place

01:22:22from first place.

01:22:24This competition

01:22:25is extremely tight.

01:22:31Next week,

01:22:32Michigan.

01:22:33How y'all doing today?

01:22:35Woo-hoo!

01:22:36A little damp.

01:22:38Yeah.

01:22:39The weather makes

01:22:41racing conditions

01:22:41trickier than normal.

01:22:44Really far north.

01:22:47It's cold.

01:22:49And a cold track

01:22:50could be worse

01:22:53than a hot and greasy track.

01:22:59But that doesn't stop

01:23:01the team captains

01:23:02from making their biggest moves

01:23:03of the season.

01:23:04There's a couple of teams

01:23:05that know

01:23:07they don't have a shot

01:23:08at winning.

01:23:09So they're talking

01:23:10about getting rid

01:23:10of their number one

01:23:11and number two picks

01:23:12to hire up teams

01:23:14for money.

01:23:16$10,000.

01:23:17Oh.

01:23:18Oh.

01:23:18What?

01:23:19Oh!

01:23:20Oh!
