00:00:00...and a lot of money flying around.
00:00:02Ooh!
00:00:05$10,000.
00:00:07And it paid off.
00:00:09Kai picked up Damon Merchant, who helped extend...
00:00:12...their points lead.
00:00:17Damon!
00:00:17And Damon Merchant will take the win there.
00:00:20Woo!
00:00:22Ryan ended up picking up Nate Saylor...
00:00:24I wasn't gonna do this, but then I heard Kai was gonna do it.
00:00:26...who won the entire event.
00:00:32Oh, it's Nate Saylor!
00:00:35Thanks a note for him, folks.
00:00:37It's the type of guy Mike is.
00:00:39Sean's been trying to get Scott Taylor for several weeks,
00:00:42but Mike Murillo was not impressed with Sean's cash offer.
00:00:46How much paper is it gonna take?
00:00:48$10,000.
00:00:49That's what the goal is.
00:00:50That's what top-tier people go for.
00:00:52Oh!
00:00:54Damn!
00:00:56You gotta wonder if we're gonna see more money
00:01:00flying around the pits this week.
00:01:07Here we go!
00:01:08You said he's a boy there, huh?
00:01:20He's a man.
00:01:20He's a man.
00:01:21He's a man.
00:01:22He's a man.
00:01:23Thanks.
00:01:24Appreciate it, bro.
00:01:25Appreciate you.
00:01:26Appreciate you.
00:01:27Thank you very much.
00:01:28All right, Galat Motorsports Park, how y'all doing today?
00:01:43Y'all can do way better than that.
00:01:49I know it's Sunday, but let's try again.
00:01:51Galat Motorsports Park, how are you doing today?
00:01:56All right.
00:01:57That was better.
00:01:58All right, y'all.
00:01:59I appreciate you coming and spending your Sunday with us today.
00:02:03The weather is, you know what?
00:02:05It could be hot, and it's not hot today, so I am not complaining one bit.
00:02:09All right, a little bit of wind.
00:02:10That's okay.
00:02:11A little chilly.
00:02:12We got a lot of racing that is going to happen here today.
00:02:15You're going to love it.
00:02:16We're going to have a lot of fun.
00:02:20We are here at Galat Motorsports Park, and it is time for the Invitational Race.
00:02:25For the first time all season long, each round is now worth points and a half, which
00:02:30means when racer wins a round, they now get 15 points instead of 10.
00:02:36Team Kai is coming into the event sitting on top of the leaderboard, but it is tight at
00:02:40the top.
00:02:41The gap between first and fifth is only 260 points.
00:02:46There are still enough points up for grabs for any of the top teams to make a run and
00:02:50take over that number one spot.
00:02:52And with the big name trade that Kai and Ryan made last week, I bet Sean is still thinking
00:02:56about how he can get himself Scott Taylor.
00:02:59So, we all know we got to do as well as we can with these points and a half and then
00:03:07the double.
00:03:08We got three races to either catch up or forget it.
00:03:09And at this point right now, we're getting left behind.
00:03:12Some of the teams are out of reach of this championship.
00:03:14We are not.
00:03:15Now is the time.
00:03:16So, we're gonna do whatever we can to get Scott Taylor on our team.
00:03:19Last week, they wanted 10 for just Scott and it just, it wasn't feasible.
00:03:24I offered 7,500.
00:03:26I think he's gonna take that offer.
00:03:28We're gonna have to come up with the money.
00:03:29Luckily, my team said that they'd all pitch in.
00:03:32So, it's doable now.
00:03:34Eardrop and dock.
00:03:35Got to, man.
00:03:36Yeah.
00:03:37Got to.
00:03:38I get it.
00:03:39At this point, we have to make a business decision and you can't think with your heart
00:03:41every time.
00:03:42Yep.
00:03:43You know what I mean?
00:03:44Got so much broken to pay for.
00:03:47I get it.
00:03:48No, and that's why I wanted to talk to you because I didn't, I know that, yeah, me moving
00:03:56don't necessarily help you, but it helps you financially.
00:03:58Yep.
00:03:59So, the train with Scott Taylor, man, that's a tough one.
00:04:05Scott wants to move on.
00:04:06You know, if he feels that's the direction that he needs to go to do better with two races
00:04:10left, I understand.
00:04:11We've blown up three motors so we could actually, you know, use some money.
00:04:15Our resources are limited compared to, you know, some of the other ones that are out here,
00:04:19which that's nobody's fault but my own, but either way, we're not doing it for free.
00:04:24You know, I'm actually hoping maybe I can put Brandon on a good team also.
00:04:27You know, they can go on a winning team and possibly win a championship.
00:04:32This is the second week we got Damon on the team.
00:04:36Hi, man.
00:04:37We're glad to have you, man.
00:04:38Yeah.
00:04:39Good job.
00:04:40Glad to be here.
00:04:41Yeah.
00:04:42Sorry we .
00:04:43I'm glad to have him at the last invitation because he helped me bail you guys out.
00:04:45So it's been a long, hard road, but I'm feeling good coming into this race.
00:04:51Our car was fast at the last race.
00:04:52I did go to the finals though.
00:04:53We turned our luck around.
00:04:54So I'm looking for the uphill climb now because we already went back to the bottom.
00:04:59Now it's time to come back up.
00:05:00It feels good to be this close to the championship.
00:05:03What sucks is I've always been number two.
00:05:05So there was no stress.
00:05:06There was nothing.
00:05:07No pressure.
00:05:08You're just chasing that number one guy.
00:05:10But now it's way worse being in the number one spot in these last couple of races, especially
00:05:14knowing that people are going to be getting points in the half and double points.
00:05:17Yeah.
00:05:18We've done good all year.
00:05:19We started off at the end of the year, me, and David, and Lizzie, toting our team.
00:05:22We stayed in first.
00:05:23Then we picked up Jew.
00:05:24That was a big help.
00:05:26And then right here in the end, I think we got the most solid team there is here.
00:05:30Oh, yeah.
00:05:31As long as we can keep things together.
00:05:34You got Ryan with a lot of momentum.
00:05:37Yes.
00:05:38And his team.
00:05:39And Nate.
00:05:40And you got a point and a half, a point and a half, and then double points.
00:05:42Yes.
00:05:43We need to stop Nate Taylor.
00:05:44Yes.
00:05:45I want us to win.
00:05:46Yeah.
00:05:47I mean what we're here for.
00:05:49Oh, look at this.
00:05:52You got a Scott Taylor pin on.
00:05:54It's crazy.
00:05:56I like that.
00:05:58What's up, Scotty?
00:05:59Hey, man.
00:06:00How are you doing, buddy?
00:06:01Good, buddy.
00:06:02How are you doing?
00:06:03Well, let's go ahead and start our captain's meeting.
00:06:05We do this before every race.
00:06:07Fine.
00:06:08It gives you your chance as a team captain to make changes or trades.
00:06:13.
00:06:15Stabbed in the back all the way around.
00:06:17I stabbed in the back.
00:06:18Everybody.
00:06:19It's awesome.
00:06:20And as always, we start with the team that has the most biggest chance.
00:06:24Last place.
00:06:25Yeah.
00:06:26Yeah.
00:06:27Dean, any changes for you before this race?
00:06:29No.
00:06:30We're good.
00:06:31We're good.
00:06:33So no changes?
00:06:34No changes.
00:06:35Mr. Murillo.
00:06:36Something may be going on here.
00:06:37Is it going to happen?
00:06:38I don't know.
00:06:39Maybe.
00:06:39That's what we're here to talk about.
00:06:40Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:06:41What are we going to do to get there?
00:06:41Oh, hey!
00:06:42Oh, hey!
00:06:43Oh, my God.
00:06:44Is it going to happen?
00:06:45Yeah.
00:06:46Well, I don't know.
00:06:47We need, we need.
00:06:48Wait, wait.
00:06:48How much is there?
00:06:49Like $7,500.
00:06:50Where's the scooter?
00:06:51That's his deal.
00:06:52That's his deal.
00:06:53I told y'all that's between y'all.
00:06:55I think we're giving like a, like a $250.
00:06:57A $250?
00:06:58Yeah, a scooter.
00:06:59Is that the small one?
00:07:00Yeah.
00:07:01He didn't, he didn't say what kind.
00:07:02No, I didn't.
00:07:03No, see there?
00:07:04I think they, they come upon a pretty good agreement.
00:07:06I learned over to pay $5,000, really wanted $10,000.
00:07:08They met in the middle, did $7,500.
00:07:10He even got me to chip in a Burmax scooter.
00:07:13So everybody's out of pocket a little bit, but hey, if I can go up to a team that's doing
00:07:17good and maybe learn something from my program, I'll be happy.
00:07:21Who are you trading for?
00:07:22I'm trading Doc.
00:07:24Doc?
00:07:25We didn't talk about that.
00:07:26I didn't hear that.
00:07:27I didn't hear that.
00:07:28Oh, yeah.
00:07:29No, we never talked about that.
00:07:30Doc was the guy.
00:07:31Oh, yeah.
00:07:32Doc was the guy.
00:07:33Now the money stopped.
00:07:34Hold up.
00:07:35This is pretty funny.
00:07:36So close.
00:07:37Now, hold on.
00:07:38There's something else I want to talk about.
00:07:39Oh, .
00:07:40I want to do, okay, I want, I want nothing for Brandon, but I want Brandon to go also.
00:07:45Nothing for Brandon.
00:07:47Who, who else would you trade other than Doc?
00:07:50Uh, B-Rad.
00:07:51Okay, B-Rad and Doc and our deal here and Brandon and Scooter.
00:07:58This is interesting.
00:07:59It's a good deal.
00:08:01I wasn't expecting this at all.
00:08:03I didn't consider trading B-Rad yet.
00:08:07Well, Brandon James is already in.
00:08:10It is a no-brainer in my opinion.
00:08:12Sorry, B-Rad.
00:08:13Uh, I appreciate everything, but at this point, we have to have five people in at all times
00:08:20if we're going to have any shot at winning this.
00:08:22Yeah.
00:08:23Deal?
00:08:24Personally, I think it's a good deal.
00:08:25Oh, dang.
00:08:26All right.
00:08:27We got a deal.
00:08:28Okay, done deal.
00:08:29You got two new teammates.
00:08:30So, sorry, Doc.
00:08:31Doc.
00:08:32Yeah, sorry, B-Rad.
00:08:33Yeah.
00:08:34I told him I'd let him race his way in today before I thought about trading him.
00:08:37But to be in this series as long as I have been and knowing what's going on this year
00:08:41with the points, the teams, and the already trading and swapping of team players already,
00:08:47you have to be an idiot not to realize that at any given day, your weakest link could be traded.
00:08:53I like that pin.
00:08:54That's right.
00:08:55All right, Bodie.
00:08:56You still have a couple guys on your team you have not sold.
00:08:59You've got...
00:09:01You've got Bowman and Bobby.
00:09:03No, no, no, man.
00:09:04Bowman and Bobby.
00:09:05Uh-uh.
00:09:06Okay.
00:09:07We're good.
00:09:08Okay.
00:09:09Swanstrom.
00:09:10Uh, no, I'm good.
00:09:11Okay.
00:09:12Ryan.
00:09:13Yeah.
00:09:14No, I think we're good.
00:09:15I think I made a pretty big change last week.
00:09:17You did.
00:09:18It paid off.
00:09:19Yeah.
00:09:20So, we're good.
00:09:21Dave.
00:09:22Uh, I got Kyle back, so I got all five in.
00:09:24We're good.
00:09:25Kai.
00:09:26I'm good.
00:09:27Anything you'd like to share with the group?
00:09:29You got all five in.
00:09:30Good.
00:09:31All right.
00:09:32Points and a half.
00:09:33Points and a half.
00:09:34This is a pretty big race.
00:09:35This is the first race of points and a half.
00:09:37And if anybody's gonna make a push to the end, it really doesn't matter who it is.
00:09:41Me, anybody that's not in first place, this is where you start.
00:09:44All right.
00:09:45Well, that's all I got, guys.
00:09:46All right.
00:09:47All right.
00:09:48In the captain's meeting, we saw another big trade.
00:09:51Murillo put up Scott Taylor and Brandon James in exchange for Doc, B-Rad, $7,500, and a scooter.
00:09:57The big ticket items in the trade were very strange, but look, these captains are trying to get their angle into this championship.
00:10:03This change could make a huge difference.
00:10:07Hey, we're glad to have you guys.
00:10:08Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:10:09Thanks.
00:10:10I'm happy to be here.
00:10:11We do still have a shot, though.
00:10:12Absolutely.
00:10:13Especially with the points and a half today, next week, and then double.
00:10:18We got a real good shot.
00:10:19Still achievable.
00:10:20It's doable.
00:10:21It is.
00:10:22We have to do well this weekend to still continue to have them.
00:10:25We need the Nates drawing the kies and, you know.
00:10:28Ryan drawing Robin.
00:10:29Yes.
00:10:30Yes.
00:10:31Stuff like that.
00:10:32I agree.
00:10:33So we need some of them teams to go out.
00:10:34So we need some luck.
00:10:35Yeah, we need some luck and us running good at the same time.
00:10:38I think all five people on this team could win at any moment.
00:10:40I think so, too.
00:10:41That's a good thing.
00:10:42One of us needs to win this event this weekend.
00:10:44It would be nice.
00:10:45For sure.
00:10:46With the addition of Scott and Brandon, Team Murder Nova now has all five drivers in the
00:10:52event, leaving Team Murillo with none.
00:10:55So that trade is already working out for Sean.
00:10:58The top three teams in points, Team Kai, Team Ryan, and Team Dave also have all five in,
00:11:04while Disco Dean, Bodie, and Swanstrom each have four.
00:11:08With this event being points and a half, every driver in the field will earn 15 points just
00:11:12for making it into the first round.
00:11:15But these captains know they got to move as many drivers as possible into the later rounds
00:11:20in order to stay in contention for the championship.
00:11:23As you can see, we have a group of drivers here on the starting line.
00:11:27This group of drivers is the 32 drivers that will be competing for $40,000 today.
00:11:33There's 32 of them.
00:11:34These drivers are going to each draw a chip out of the bucket.
00:11:37You want me to pull you out?
00:11:38You want me to pull you out?
00:11:39I thought there was a chip.
00:11:40I thought there was a chip.
00:11:41Round one, there are a couple matchups to keep your eye on.
00:11:56Scott Taylor's going up against Kyle Canyon.
00:11:58Look, you got to think Scott is really wanting to prove that he is worth the money
00:12:03and the scooter that was put up to get the trade.
00:12:07Then you've got Damon going up against Lizzie.
00:12:09Look, two new teammates, two heavy hitters going up against each other.
00:12:14And then we've got Kai Kelly going up against Axeman.
00:12:17Look, a lot of pressure on this race.
00:12:19Kai Kelly trying to keep his team in first place,
00:12:22and Axeman sitting on the second-place team.
00:12:26All right, folks. Invitational first round starts right now.
00:12:29First pair.
00:12:30That's going to be Rich Bruder going up against David Gates.
00:12:35First pair out.
00:12:36All right, he's coming now.
00:12:37Sorry, David. Don't matter.
00:12:38We got it.
00:12:39Round one, we got David Gates.
00:12:41First round's a tough round, and we've got to put it fast.
00:12:43We can't take him late, so if we can knock him out on this round,
00:12:46you know, that allows us to get some more points,
00:12:48even though it's one and a half points.
00:12:49So that's it. We've got to do what we've got to do.
00:12:54You know, we've got Rich Bruder.
00:12:59We're going to be first pair out down the left lane,
00:13:01and we're going to go out there, and we're going to let this thing go
00:13:03and get to the other end first, come back over here,
00:13:05service his old girl, cool her down, and be ready to go rounds today.
00:13:13The goal when we got here is to go win the thing,
00:13:15and after testing Friday night, I feel like we got the car to beat here this weekend,
00:13:17along with our team captain, Kai Kelly, and we know where we stand at now,
00:13:19and the car's reacting to what we're doing to it.
00:13:20And I think at the end of the night, I hope to be standing here,
00:13:21holding that trophy, drinking cold beer.
00:13:22.
00:13:31And I think at the end of the night,
00:13:32I hope to be standing here, holding that trophy,
00:13:34drinking cold beer.
00:13:56All right, folks, the invitational first round
00:13:58starts right now, first pair.
00:14:00That's going to be Rich Bruder going up
00:14:01against David and Gates.
00:14:20And Rich Bruder takes the win.
00:14:25Great drag, Rich Bruder turns on the win light.
00:14:30Ours got all out back.
00:14:31What'd you do?
00:14:32She looked like a first car's out.
00:14:35It's hard to be in the first pairs out.
00:14:40It's hard to be in the first pairs out.
00:14:45I'm about ready not to beat any pairs out.
00:14:47All right, folks, next pair coming up right now.
00:14:48All right, folks, next pair coming up right now,
00:14:51you're going to have Bodie going up against Kayla Morton.
00:14:53I'm going to have to be in the first pair.
00:14:55Okay, so we had some issues on Friday,
00:14:57worked really hard to get it back together.
00:14:59The next three races are extremely important.
00:15:02Yeah, points and a half.
00:15:04Points and a half, and then double points.
00:15:06It is invitational day.
00:15:08It's a very important day because we do have points and a half.
00:15:10You can't help but be a little nervous in these situations,
00:15:13just because points and a half can make you or break you.
00:15:16I definitely have a little bubble guts today.
00:15:18So it'll be a driver's wheel race and a tuner's computer race.
00:15:22Yes, it's definitely a different track,
00:15:24and we tend to thrive on off-the-trailer races,
00:15:27and I like our chances here.
00:15:29Cool. Let's go do it.
00:15:31We drew Bodie round one, which is a pretty solid draw.
00:15:34Chase always tells me, draw good before I go,
00:15:37and I think we did just that.
00:15:47Team got four in, man.
00:15:49Everybody's car seems to be running good.
00:15:51We got some momentum going, man.
00:15:53I know I got a tough fight, but I feel good, man.
00:15:55I got the right lane. I liked it. I wanted it.
00:15:57So I'm ready to go out there and show what this car can do.
00:16:01And Caleb Orton will take the win there.
00:16:26Nice pass right down through there.
00:16:27Bodie, he might have had to pedal there.
00:16:31Round one is always the most nerve-wracking,
00:16:33so I'm really glad to get that over with.
00:16:35We had a lot of problems on Friday that we had to fix,
00:16:37so I'm glad she's back together and she's healthy.
00:16:40And honestly, I was a little worried about Bodie guessing,
00:16:42but he didn't.
00:16:43And, yeah, on to round two, so it's smooth sailing now.
00:16:47All right, next pair coming up right now,
00:16:48we got Chuck Sightsinger going up
00:16:50against your grade eight winner, Nate Saylor.
00:16:55Well, we finally got that monkey off our back.
00:16:58Yeah.
00:16:59I wanted that grade eight badly.
00:17:01Badly.
00:17:02We just got off the grade eight last night.
00:17:04We got our first grade eight win.
00:17:05We're super jacked about that.
00:17:07We got a bad-ass car right now.
00:17:09This thing's flying.
00:17:10We're ready for the invitation today to collect some points.
00:17:12Everything should stay the same.
00:17:13We got the new pushrods in,
00:17:15and we got more room on our table for another trophy,
00:17:18so I really want to do that today.
00:17:20And this track's fast.
00:17:21Today's point-and-a-half date,
00:17:23so with five guys going rounds from our team,
00:17:26we can shorten that gap up.
00:17:28Like, we could make that gap disappear today.
00:17:29So that's our plan.
00:17:30That's what we're going to do.
00:17:31Anything any one of these guys needs,
00:17:33whatever I have is theirs.
00:17:34This team is ready to back each other,
00:17:36and we're ready to win this championship.
00:17:38I had a mishap on Friday.
00:17:51We torched a boater.
00:17:53We broke two rods.
00:17:54I made it in the Invitational.
00:17:55Then I draw Nate Saylor,
00:17:58like probably the fastest guy out of the parking lot,
00:18:00but you can't win this Invitational
00:18:02without going through the best.
00:18:03So whether I'm racing first round or the last round,
00:18:06you've got to beat him in order to win this $40,000,
00:18:08so hell, bring it off.
00:18:28And Nate Saylor will take the win there.
00:18:30Nice pass for Nate.
00:18:32He'll move on the next round.
00:18:34That just took whatever he gave it, so it did, didn't it?
00:18:36Uh-huh.
00:18:40I was honestly afraid he was going to jump on me,
00:18:43just because he's kind of known for that.
00:18:44And he didn't.
00:18:45He made it a fair race.
00:18:46We turned on the green light.
00:18:48It went right down the line, and she's solid today.
00:18:50So we got a good race car.
00:18:52Hey, hey, go win this .
00:18:54Thanks, man.
00:18:54Go win this whole thing, man.
00:18:55Good job.
00:18:55You've been doing great the last couple weeks.
00:18:57Thanks, brother.
00:18:57I like it.
00:19:00All right, folks, next pair, Tony McKinney
00:19:02versus Clay Cole coming at you right now.
00:19:14I drew Tony McKinney.
00:19:15Today's a points and a half event, huge for us.
00:19:18We've got all five of our team members in the event.
00:19:22We've all got to perform.
00:19:23We've at least got to go two rounds.
00:19:24As long as we're one, two, three, four, five,
00:19:26that's all I care about.
00:19:40So we weren't able to race our way in.
00:19:42We found some issues with the car.
00:19:44We should have found him earlier,
00:19:45but our schedule is so grueling, we don't have the time to test.
00:19:49We got Clay Cole.
00:19:50Clay Cole's fast.
00:19:52He beat me on the racer way in in Colorado,
00:19:54went on to make it all the way to the finals.
00:19:56So I owe him one.
00:19:58We're going to be one for three.
00:20:00I'll take it today if I can.
00:20:22And Clay Cole will take the win there.
00:20:34Nice pass for Clay Cole.
00:20:36Straight as an arrow there in that right lane.
00:20:39Great rip there for him.
00:20:43All right, folks, next pair coming up right now
00:20:45is going to be Greg Chandler going up against Mike Bowman.
00:20:48So I'm all pumped up today for, you know,
00:21:03racing Greg Chandler.
00:21:05We really need to make this happen.
00:21:07You know, we're getting near the end of the year.
00:21:10So we're just going to look at one round at a time.
00:21:13We've got to race through this.
00:21:14We've got a good hot rod, and we're just going to make it happen today.
00:21:35And Mike Bowman gets the win there.
00:21:38Greg Chandler has some issues.
00:21:40He's out of it by the 330.
00:21:41All right, folks, next pair, that's going to be Bobby Ducote
00:21:44going up against Robin Roberts.
00:21:46If it stays overcast at all,
00:21:48there are going to be some big, fast cars and fast numbers.
00:21:51All the fast guys will roll right up front.
00:21:53Round one, I drew Bobby Ducote.
00:21:55He's a wild card.
00:21:57He can be fast, but he's just a wild card.
00:21:59You never know what he's going to do.
00:22:00So now we've got Bobby.
00:22:01Man, I drew a bear.
00:22:10He's Robin Roberts.
00:22:13We blew this thing up last night and got it back together.
00:22:15It cranks.
00:22:16I know that much.
00:22:17So we're about to see what the rest of it's going to do.
00:22:19I'm going to try to treat him and hope I stay out front of him
00:22:21and get the W because they've got to give me some freaking points.
00:22:24All right, folks, next pair, that's going to be Bobby Ducote
00:22:38going up against Robin Roberts.
00:22:54Good job.
00:23:02Yeah.
00:23:03Roll up against Bobby.
00:23:05The car shook just a little bit and then hauled out the back door,
00:23:08so I knew it was over and I never saw him.
00:23:12I was the third team driver to go
00:23:13and the third one to get the W for Team Ryan Martin.
00:23:16We're in a great spot.
00:23:17Oh, yeah.
00:23:18That's a good race.
00:23:19That's a thing fast.
00:23:20Yeah, thanks.
00:23:21All right, folks, this next pair here,
00:23:23is going to be Callie Mills going up against Brandon James.
00:23:27Go out there and quiver a little bit,
00:23:29but you're going to have to stay with it until you know
00:23:32how far to take it, all right?
00:23:34Good.
00:23:34All right.
00:23:36I actually raced Brandon James in the grudge passes
00:23:39and pretty close race until I had to abort.
00:23:42I know that my car is faster now than it was when we raced him,
00:23:45so I think it should be good as long as I can do my job on the tree
00:23:48and not let him get out on me.
00:23:53We broke a lot of things the other day.
00:23:55I mean, everything's new.
00:23:56Transmission's new.
00:23:57Third member's new.
00:23:58So we can't really run it exactly how we would normally run it,
00:23:59but we kind of know about where she's at,
00:24:01so I'm confident going into the first round.
00:24:03I'm going into the first round.
00:24:05Callie Mills takes the win.
00:24:17What a drag race there.
00:24:21All right, next pair, that's going to be Chris Rankin going up against Jeff Lutz.
00:24:37Round one driver's meeting, I draw Chris Rankin.
00:24:39I've raced him many times before, and I've always come out with a win,
00:24:42so I don't plan it any different, but, hey, he's getting better.
00:24:44His car's fast.
00:24:45He's one to watch out for.
00:24:46I just don't know if it's going to be today.
00:24:47All right.
00:24:48All right.
00:24:49All right.
00:24:50All right.
00:24:51All right.
00:24:52All right.
00:24:53All right.
00:24:54All right.
00:24:55All right.
00:24:56All right.
00:24:57All right.
00:24:58All right.
00:24:59All right.
00:25:00All right.
00:25:01All right.
00:25:02All right.
00:25:03All right.
00:25:04All right.
00:25:05Good old Lutz.
00:25:12Somehow we've raced him three times now in the Invitational.
00:25:16Hopefully third time's the charm.
00:25:17We can get over one of them on this one, and we need it.
00:25:19They got a fast hot rod, and they're pretty damn consistent.
00:25:22So we're going to have a work cut out for us, but you've got to beat the best to be the best.
00:25:26So there's a lot of best guys here.
00:25:27They've got to be beat.
00:25:28I need one of them.
00:25:35And Jeff Lutz is out of there like a rocket ship.
00:25:49Gets the win.
00:25:50Chris Rankin.
00:25:51Something break here right on the line.
00:25:54Oh.
00:25:55So the race went for me.
00:26:01Good for Lutz.
00:26:02Lutz got the win.
00:26:03Damn it, man.
00:26:08We'll get it apart here, see what happened.
00:26:10Hopefully Lutz can go on and move on and do really well for himself.
00:26:13Damn.
00:26:14All right.
00:26:15Kyle Canyon going up against Scott Scooter Taylor.
00:26:19Everything good, you think?
00:26:22We've got to shake these first round blues.
00:26:24We're on a new team, Team Murder Nova now, and we've been stinking for about six races,
00:26:30and it's time to turn that around.
00:26:32A little bit of pressure.
00:26:36Probably be a pretty tight race with him.
00:26:38Yes.
00:26:39With Scott.
00:26:40We've got points to make up after the last two races being gone.
00:26:43Making that up pretty fast was points and a half today.
00:26:45I know Dave's counting on us to go rounds, and he was missing us the last two races.
00:26:49So we've got a good hot rod.
00:26:50We've got a good car.
00:26:51It's time to go prove it.
00:27:13And Kyle Canyon gets the win.
00:27:20What was that bobble bobble?
00:27:21He's just not comfortable in the car, man.
00:27:22Been there, though.
00:27:23Whenever you lose so much, man, and you're just not confident in the car, I think that's the problem.
00:27:28Because he shouldn't have went up on the brake that early.
00:27:29Yeah, that was weird.
00:27:30It seems like no matter how much we test, the first round is just killing us.
00:27:35And down towards the finish line, transmission line blows off.
00:27:49Thankfully, you know, if we're going to look at any kind of luck, at least it didn't burn me.
00:27:54blows off thankfully you know if we're gonna look at any kind of luck at least it didn't burn me
00:27:59uh it sprayed to the right side of the car and honestly that's pretty lucky i'm not going to
00:28:04the hospital right now so i'm gonna take it as a win you know i'm healthy i can watch my friends
00:28:09race and uh we try to be the ones they're watching next week like a decent pass or something happened
00:28:14oh it blew a hydraulic line inside here i'm just happy it didn't get me it it like shot it burned
00:28:20all the carpet straight through like next pair that's going to be larry larson going up against
00:28:26daddy dave i think i'll make the same pass that made the other night we'll be good to go
00:28:31here in galop we drew dave again we get a little chance to redeem ourselves today first round again
00:28:37so that'll that'll put a little hurting on those guys we can take him out and with this points deal
00:28:43i think it's going to get pretty interesting the next three races
00:28:50we got really good test passes in uh the other night car's good um we freshened the motor up
00:28:57everything should be good to go i got larry larson again um we've met up quite a few times this season
00:29:02and he hasn't out ran me yet so i want to keep that streak going and uh see if we can go into the
00:29:07second round
00:29:29and daddy daddy kills him on the starting line
00:29:32hey he jumped i don't think i think larry's late i figured he knew we'd have his ass
00:29:42well that race was a little let's just say aggravating larry if you think i jumped on you
00:29:48i apologize i had no intentions of guessing it crappy part about it is if you're going to jump
00:29:53admit you jump don't stand down there to lie to me i think he thinks i guessed on him
00:29:58i don't know i don't i'm pretty sure i did not did i leave early was it green
00:30:05you might have left early but you didn't go red
00:30:09all right the next pair you got chuck 55 going up against jim house
00:30:14good luck jim good luck brother you bet well now we're moving into that points and a half
00:30:19in our points chase right now so today is a big day we drew our good friend chuck 55 they've had
00:30:24some struggles here lately but uh when that car makes a good rip it's usually fast
00:30:36i drew jim howe and uh he's probably one of the five cars i wouldn't wish for in first round
00:30:43but uh hey eventually you're gonna have to draw somebody fast and uh i think we got the car that
00:30:48can beat him i'm gonna try to leave on him and uh if i can leave on him i think we got it covered
00:31:05all right the next pair for you got chuck 55 going up against jim howe
00:31:18and chuck 55 with a great pass gets the win nice job chuck 55 moving on the next round
00:31:37man that was a drag race
00:31:41i tried to go right i seen him starting to make a move
00:31:44and i thought man i just hope mine will stay hooked and it did thank goodness all right folks
00:31:50next pair here in this invitational first round going to be a good one driving the pro charge camaro
00:31:55that is going to be damon merchant going up against lizzie musey did you guys look at the air last

00:32:15actually pretty chilly out good temps for nitrous cars we like to go fast in that okay going in
00:32:24of course we go out for first round of chip draw and i get damon merchant first round damon was
00:32:30definitely not the one i wanted to draw first round for invitational especially he's on our team
00:32:35and you know he's fast it don't sound right does it no it don't
00:32:49sounded right there it didn't sound right on idle it sounded like it was missing a couple
00:32:53no she would never come up here hurt on purpose pat would never do that
00:33:08david merchant in the right lane lizzie over here in this left lane
00:33:28and damon merchant gets her on the tree never looks back
00:33:48car made a phenomenal pass so i'm super pumped about that the guy's been working their ass off um
00:33:55and we're heading in the right direction right now we've got a hot rod that can win this thing
00:33:59good job on that tree did i get it yeah it didn't it's all good yeah it didn't shift so
00:34:08it really didn't it no he said it looks like you had a red limiter yeah i don't know what the hell's
00:34:14going on i'm not having any luck i can tell you sometimes i'd rather be lucky any time of the day
00:34:20i said that same thing yeah sometimes you gotta be lucky and good yeah that sucks we've got another
00:34:26freaking first round loss eating away at me because it's been several events in a row so and that's not
00:34:33typical for us we'll at least go a couple rounds you know um i don't know this is this is a little
00:34:38rough so now keep going thank you ma'am next fair that's going to be jimmy taylor going up against ryan
00:34:46martin good luck blake thank you man appreciate that

00:34:58it goes points and a half points and a half and double points this being the first points and a
00:35:02half and us getting all good draws and kai not getting such a good draw this is our opportunity
00:35:08to catch him he's been running away with this deal this year and we need to go get him and this is our
00:35:12chance to make a big move so all it's going to take is a couple of us to get in the finals
00:35:16which means we got to have good cars that run good we stay away from each other
00:35:28we're in north carolina getting ready to run the first round of the invitational we made it in

00:35:47all under on the line
00:36:07and ryan martin right down broadway gets the win nice job jimmy taylor has some issues there that
00:36:11left lane has to get out of it this is points and a half so every one of these rounds are super
00:36:17crucial the important thing is just to keep going and collecting points my team's sitting in a
00:36:21pretty good spot so far four of my five guys are in i got giuseppe left and i think he's probably

00:37:04do better this week and uh go some rounds because everybody's starting to catch us going into the
00:37:08the end of the day i got five in but the top four teams has got five in so they really don't matter

00:39:43without him so that definitely sucks but i've called him every pass that we've made he's watching it on
00:39:49live feed he's trying to coach me through i made three passes friday night and the car was steadily
00:39:55gradually driving left we had to put some preload in the car and i called him on the phone and he
00:39:59talked me through on how to get everything ready so hopefully this car will drive back straighter
00:40:09out of nowhere it just snapped sideways if my dad was here he probably could have read the track a little
00:40:27bit better than i did you know i tried my best but it just wasn't good enough justin good race buddy
00:40:44thank you this will be the final pair for the first round that is going to be page coughlin going up
00:40:50against murder nova hey do you see a little starstruck race in murder nova or is it old hat at this point
00:40:56oh no it's it'll be a starstruck every single time you know just because i might have a little fangirl
00:41:03moment doesn't mean i'm gonna go easy on him this will be a great rematch and we got the new motor in
00:41:08that car so we're meeting business here no easy going for murder nova
00:41:21i know what she has because it's the same thing that i have and i don't know how much they're
00:41:26unleashing that car at this point but i know what the car's capable of and that's the only thing i
00:41:31can go off of so i'm not going to underestimate her
00:41:55we made a good lick man i let go of the button
00:41:58car did exactly what we told it to do she was right there it looked like a good race but
00:42:04we got that wind light baby you made a good one didn't you thanks we're still getting this
00:42:09thing figured out it looked like you was right as soon as i hit the chutes i looked over and
00:42:12you was right there so i tried those long trees it was wasn't it it was like don't you go right now
00:42:18don't do it but good job good race going into round two ryan martin has all five of his drivers
00:42:26still in the event this really appears like ryan's team has just got the momentum and they are building
00:42:32on it day's team has four sean's team has three and our number one in points team kai only has two
00:42:39all right here we go guys this is your chance to make up ground on the number one team which is team
00:42:45kai kelly it is one and a half times points all right so the points are getting bigger for each round

00:43:52know what you got to do go back to the pits get your cars turned around bring them into the staging
00:43:56lanes i want to give someone forty thousand dollars today let's see who it'll be let's go
00:44:05well here we go first pair coming at you right now in the second round that's going to be mike
00:44:10bowman going up against murder nova
00:44:16it's the tough task of beating sean right here we're going to second round who do i draw sean
00:44:23i mean probably one of the toughest guys here so um i stepped it up a little bit right here
00:44:29hopefully it hooks and you know makes the trip all the way down the race track and it cut a good
00:44:33light and and we'll see uh what we can do here hey good luck brother hey good luck man
00:44:37round two i haven't raced bowman i don't know if i've raced him yet this season at the beginning
00:44:44of the season he was on fire his car was one of the fastest on the property he had a little bit
00:44:48of problems with it and i actually think he's back now he's been running good he raced his way in he's
00:44:54been taking out some some big name cars and uh he's fast
00:45:09we tweak the tune just a little bit off the first pass try to go a little bit faster
00:45:14we have to go as fast as we possibly can
00:45:24and
00:45:39verdanova takes the win with a great pass there in that left lane mike bowman right there with him
00:45:47but not enough
00:45:52i left on him and i never looked back after that we got the wind light it was a pretty close race
00:45:58but on to the third round hey man nice job man
00:46:01that's a good race dude i just i got a little bit loose nice job you pull out in front of me and
00:46:06that like you can't go around i know what that thing's capable of and i know what you did early
00:46:10on in the season so i promise you man i was worried yeah all right folks next pair right here that's
00:46:16gonna be jeff lutts going up against ryan martin good luck homie love you brother be safe man see
00:46:22you at the other end all right round two i get ryan martin out of everybody in that dm group
00:46:28there's two people i didn't want ryan martin and sean so don't i get ryan martin
00:46:44you know what we've raced them here before and we beat them here before so i'm gonna give it hell
00:47:14and ryan martin will take the win that right there was a close race folks but ryan martin
00:47:23able to turn that wind light to get the win after that pass i can say that we made all the right moves
00:47:29that's really four straight passes in a row so i'm excited about that i think we got a pretty good hot
00:47:34rod the thing's running pretty good we're down to eight that's all eight really fast cars so we're
00:47:40gonna see just how good we got it here pretty close oh yeah make a good pass yeah yeah i think
00:47:48i think it was yeah you said you was you was right there for a little bit
00:47:53all right next pair these two drivers are teammates kyle canyon going up against axeman larry roach
00:48:00round two we drew axe man drew our teammate bad deal but in the scheme of things one of us goes on
00:48:13so we get points with kai losing three drivers in the first round we're hoping this really helps us
00:48:18close the gap it guarantees another car moving on so there's a positive there for us
00:48:33that pass was good for us it was picking the front tires up in the middle and it was on a run
00:49:02i think it would have been hard for anybody to outrun so i'm on cloud nine right now first part
00:49:05of the year we had some good showings and i think we're back man i really do so i'm excited to see
00:49:10what this thing does the rest of the night hopefully it's our night damn i just my pants for you
00:49:18i don't know you 60 put it out of me what happened out there shoots with no
00:49:23pressures didn't come over whoo and that it was running so fast pressure didn't come over
00:49:27i stood on the brake i seen it and all of a sudden the brakes got so hot and it slid sideways i've
00:49:32seen it all right next pair that is going to be cali mills going up against daddy dave comstock
00:49:41chip draw for round two i drew daddy dave i've raced daddy dave quite a bit he usually beats me but i
00:49:48have a lot more confidence in my car my car's a lot faster now than when he's raced me in the past
00:49:53justin lost jim howell lost antony mckinney lost so it is what it is i'm just going to do my job and
00:49:58hopefully i can continue on and carry the team i'd say
00:50:12second round we got cali mills kind of raced with her dad and i watched her dad growing up
00:50:17haley's watched me race as she grew up it's kind of cool to actually race um one of the guys's
00:50:22daughters and she's doing really good the car is really fast so it should be a really really good
00:50:39great pass from him cali mills also made a great rip there in the right lane but just not quite enough
00:51:02car's good that was a really really fast pass i got some awesome data from that one so we're only gonna go
00:51:07faster from here but bad part of going into the third round there's no ducks i mean everybody's
00:51:11there for a reason everybody's fast so let's get a good draw and go on to the next round you need me
00:51:16to help you get out green dad there's a lot of stuff in there good job thank you it was close it was
00:51:26close i was like go go go i pulled the shoes and i kind of went like this and i was like i was like damn
00:51:31she was right there yeah i try to make sure that i get the shoots out and get it early
00:51:35you know like yeah i gotta make sure i cut it off at the eighth mile especially when she's smoking like
00:51:39she is i'm like let's get her how close was it i think it was pretty close half a car probably i mean
00:51:45maybe half a car it was it was good as soon as i lifted you shot by she was right there good job
00:51:50yeah thank you good luck thank you all right next pair coming up right now that's going to be clay
00:51:56cole going up against robin roberts robin's a fast guy but uh we'll put something in this here
00:52:03computer make it go a little faster yes sir yes sir the car's got perfectly straight now we have power
00:52:08but we went into this deal first round with five of our teammates in the imitation
00:52:12we came back after first round with only two left me and dame and merchant
00:52:15um so we're really going to have to pick up the slack hopefully go some rounds and really stand
00:52:20up for our team so we get these points and a half today to help keep our lead and keep them from
00:52:25coming closer to it drew clay cole guy has been really fast this year he's he's done great he's just
00:52:38coming in but our car's flying the conditions are perfect the weather's perfect the air is perfect
00:52:44it's gonna it's gonna both cars are gonna go really fast
00:52:58robin roberts robin roberts turns on the wind like that was another close race folks
00:53:20it was a drag race he had just enough to inch me out down at the end he got the win sucks for our team
00:53:25we're not going to the next round to get any more points but uh honestly the most fun i've had all
00:53:29weekend right on that's what we needed keep moving them around let's keep moving them around
00:53:55all right folks next pair coming up right now we got giuseppe going up against chuck 55
00:54:12we drew chuck 55 race chuck 55 at the last race and we were able to get him we got by
00:54:18i know he's fast he said he's making some fast runs gonna be a pretty tough round here for us right now
00:54:25i don't like my draw real well i drew giuseppe it seems like he's kind of been my kryptonite
00:54:39but i do feel like i have a car that can outrun him i feel like i can make more power than he can
00:54:43if i can just be on my game i think i'm gonna pull this one off and get that monkey off my back
00:54:55all right folks next fair coming up right now we got giuseppe going up against chuck 55
00:55:09and giuseppe gonna win that one both drivers driving those things down through there folks
00:55:28we left together he jumps out there half track i'm driving away from him and my car's going to
00:55:38the left i chop the throttle he literally came up on me and clipped me right at the end next time i draw
00:55:46him i'm gonna chunk that piece of kryptonite at him when i go by him he don't he don't want to draw
00:55:50me next time i'm telling you man that was close oh it was close it was close it was you have me
00:55:55whoo you had me all right folks here we go seventh pair that is gonna be rich brooder going up against
00:56:02kayla morton round two we drew the brooder brothers and every race they seem to get a little faster and
00:56:12faster so we're gonna be on our toes here but we're ready from a team aspect we're not only looking out
00:56:16for kai we have to worry about ryan because i think with his five drivers he may have passed us
00:56:21down one for ryan if we take out brooder just got to keep picking them off man
00:56:36we got kayla she's been running good a couple finals our car is fast we're gaining points all
00:56:41five of us are still in dave had four so we got one more than them their team's running strong over
00:56:46there so we're gonna do what we have to do to get that win
00:57:04and kayla morton will take the win there with that pass nice job
00:57:10i definitely anticipated the light of smidge
00:57:20the deal is is that they did it to ax man last weekend so i know he's capable and it's just a
00:57:25cutthroat world out here you know it just is what it is and if there's room in the tree to guess or
00:57:30anticipate you got to get them before they get you and that's just how this world works out here
00:57:35good job thank you all right folks last pair of the second round that is going to be nate
00:57:41sailor going up against damon merchant somebody gonna have to knock off on a train here
00:57:48second round here a lot we drew to nate a little bit of a struggle at the first of the year figured
00:57:53it out he's been on fire ever since but we're not teammates anymore he's moved on to ryan's team i've
00:57:59moved on to kai's and set up to be a good rivalry right here you know he's walking around a couple
00:58:17of wins under his belt his chest out and he's riding that wave right now and it's going to be up to us
00:58:23right here to knock him off that pestle
00:58:34and david merchant jumps the tree down and gets the win against nate sailor
00:58:51as soon as i seen illuminate i let go of the button he didn't have a chance after that
00:58:58we really threw a tune out of that you know we thought would go and we thought would be fast and
00:59:02we nailed it i got to get back to cutting people's heads off up there and that's exactly what i'm
00:59:06doing here today man that race went like i don't know if he guessed or didn't guess or either way he
00:59:16jumped probably a car and a half out on me out of the hole uh and there's just no making up that
00:59:20ground did yours act up no he just had like two cars out on me on the hole did it really yeah
00:59:32all right folks here we go uh invitational round three drivers meeting coming at you right now
00:59:43we started with 32 drivers we are now down to eight i will tell you there are two teams that still have
00:59:50three drivers standing and that team is daddy dave with three drivers and team ryan martin three drivers
01:00:01good job boys let's go ahead and draw chips see who's racing who
01:00:05here in this third round it's my good look i gotta go from the back oh hello well hi
01:00:11all right all right my number ones please step forward oh it's gonna be kayla morton versus murder
01:00:22nova i don't know all right number two
01:00:27giuseppe versus damon merchant number three
01:00:33robin roberts versus daddy dave which means
01:00:38my fourth and final pair will be kyle canyon versus ryan martin
01:00:45all right y'all well look you know who you're racing you know what you got to do go back to
01:00:49the pits get your cars turned around and bring them in the stage lanes let's do it
01:00:55all right here we go invitational round three coming at you right now
01:01:02it's just crazy like you look around and there's just not one person that you want to draw team
01:01:10dave is holding strong though with three players in we're coming up in the underdog position i really
01:01:15don't think anybody expected us to stay in the hunt but we're making moves baby
01:01:29i feel great i'm just worried about the the points and a half because
01:01:33that can either make you or break you i've spent all season getting to where i want to be right now
01:01:38and i'm number four a couple bad weekends man i could have all that hard work taken away from me
01:01:43so we're more focused and we're trying to be more on top of our game right now than ever
01:01:49here we go invitational round three coming at you right now over in the left lane that is going to
01:01:56be kayla morton going up against murder nova in the right lane
01:02:10here today able to take out murder nova what a great drag race it's close
01:02:40that was such a close race when i beat sean like that i always feel like
01:02:46i can go all the way because he's just so fast and it's always a neck and neck race and uh yeah
01:02:51i'm ready final four baby let's go it was still a good race it was close dang every job good job
01:03:00every time every time all right next pair giuseppe going up against damon merchant
01:03:10he's flying my crew said they were watching him he's making some fast runs probably one of the
01:03:22fastest cars here right now they're saying so it's gonna be a tough round for us
01:03:29i looked at the tune-up car kind of was overpowering it there in the middle so actually turned it down a
01:03:34little bit hopefully that pays off and we can make a better run and we got to get him out too
01:03:40he's on kai's team they just got him got to try to take him out right now so we can make a move
01:03:49we draw giuseppe i feel like they've got a lot of momentum on ryan's team right now and that's contagious
01:03:56so you got two or three guys really running good those guys that's been struggling they've got to get
01:04:01their act together those guys will help them get their act together but rogues flying right now
01:04:06we took out lizzie we took out a killer and nate and you know here we are against giuseppe so can't
01:04:13take anybody lightly at this point the air is great the track's great everybody's hauling ass and them
01:04:20high horsepower endings right now are on the hunt we're just gonna have to you know knock them down
01:04:25to our level with this big block
01:04:45over in the right lane that is going to be giuseppe going up against damon merchant driving that pro
01:04:53charge camaro
01:05:07and david merchant will take the win there folks these races super close
01:05:21let go of the trans brake car was up wheels up came down a little bit and i could feel it slow
01:05:39down he just clipped me for sure less than a foot car probably was spinning going through i have to look
01:05:44at the data but yeah man he made a great run we made a great run
01:05:50holy what a rush man i mean i ain't gonna lie when you get a captain like ryan it's got a ton of momentum
01:06:00right now you got nate coming over it's got a ton of momentum racing that contagious to pull up here
01:06:07third round with him he ain't in third round because he's no slouch i was worried about that one
01:06:13it's a damn good feeling now we're back to back semi-finals we got to get it done this week though
01:06:18i mean that was close i could tell can you tell or no i mean not not until right there at the stripe
01:06:25and you just boom right there i knew he was close i couldn't see you i was like did you see him a little
01:06:30bit of reel me in or no no you didn't see you i didn't see you either oh okay oh you want to see
01:06:34that was good yeah i got a hot rod again don't you yeah yeah yeah yeah would have been nice to take
01:06:40damon out because uh he's on team kai right now and and that would have really helped us going into
01:06:45the next round good job getting it back together dude yeah yeah you got a car
01:06:51next fair got robin roberts going up against daddy dave comstock
01:06:56daddy dave it's going to be a good matchup third round i draw daddy dave look dave's been
01:07:02inconsistent he's not that fast but he's taking big jumps
01:07:14we just got to see how this goes he's totally unpredictable
01:07:26and robin roberts going to get the win there with that pass nice job daddy dave just not enough
01:07:47robin didn't disappoint
01:07:50down through there and right before the stripe i looked over and he's right beside me so it was one
01:07:54of those races that you had to look up to see the wind light and i'll take that loss
01:07:59every day of the week that's the way that's the way good run good run this last pair coming up right
01:08:07now kyle canyon going up against ryan martin gonna be a good one folks
01:08:14this race has been pretty big for us so far um we're making headway i think we're ahead right
01:08:24now in second place i believe we're gaining ground on kai's team
01:08:29kai all of kai's drivers are out except for damon damon is the only one that's going on
01:08:34you know it's going to be tough but i think when this is all said and done if we can keep doing what
01:08:37we're doing we're going to close the gap dramatically we drew ryan martin um i'm excited about it he's
01:08:48one of the biggest bears out here if not the biggest and i want this one um we're gonna go
01:08:53out there and send it this will be a big round for us if we can get past him
01:09:07the shoots didn't come out yeah there's been a lot of people jump a lot of people won that
01:09:29shouldn't have won um and people just taking shots at the trees and he took a little stab at it went
01:09:35red we got the w so i don't like to win like that personally uh but i don't like to lose like
01:09:39that either so this is what it is we'll take the win
01:09:52man you said it's gonna be a good clean run he gave it a little you know i had no intention
01:09:55of doing anything stupid up there it wasn't enough yeah i went up on the chip and it stuttered there
01:10:01for a second and kind of got me off going it's all good oh yeah i'll get you a clean one one day
01:10:05it's all good i do not know what is going on with these parachutes going into the semi-finals two of
01:10:13the four racers are from team ryan martin that will guarantee that they pull into the second place

01:13:58know haven't had that happen to us yet that being said i got kayla kayla's known to guess a little bit
01:14:03she didn't do it against sean in the last run but uh she might do it against me i don't know
01:14:09my team is in a good position right now i don't know how close we are to you know to getting towards
01:14:14that first place damon is holding strong for kai's team though so there's that but every time that me
01:14:19and robin can advance and continue to advance we gain more on kai's team so what we really need here
01:14:25is i need to take out kayla robin needs to take out damon so folks this is the invitational
01:14:31semi-finals right here winner of this race goes on to the finals to race for 40 000 let's see who it'll
01:14:38be kayla morten in the right lane ryan martin in the left
01:14:52make a okay pass yeah it's just a close clean race probably had me by like half a car
01:15:22just all the way down you know appreciate you not guessing no no problem
01:15:28hey i kind of don't like that one i'm on the other end of it so i kind of get it you know
01:15:33i know it sucks brian martin will go to the finals let's see who he'll face between damon merchant
01:15:40and robin roberts we need it we're raced like we need you know what i mean we're out here to win
01:15:49make friends you know robin's sitting over there with four motors in his trailer and
01:15:54we've got our one it's hard to pull the trigger and go okay this will be the run where we might
01:15:59in this thing but there's one thing i'd say about robin when he's on he's on have a good run man be
01:16:08safe good luck dude so if he's in the semi-finals he's probably got a hot rod here this weekend and
01:16:15like i said he's one of those that has some momentum going into this weekend on ryan's team
01:16:20and if maybe just one of them deals me being the last guy on kai's team ryan and them are making big
01:16:26moves making a push into that second place and they're coming they got a lot of momentum so if
01:16:30i got to shut them down one by one that's the plan for this weekend
01:16:43all right last fair here in the semi-finals the invitational class going to be robin roberts
01:16:47in the left lane going up against damon merchant in the right
01:16:56i wanted to drag his ass so bad i want him to drag his ass so bad
01:17:26and robin roberts goes red yeah yeah baby this is the win to damon merchant
01:17:39he took a shot at it that's what you get for guessing
01:17:50did you win should have talked to your boy about that red light no did he go red
01:17:55in his head i didn't fit not on purpose hey if he did it he didn't do it on purpose
01:18:01did you go red
01:18:04after all that i screwed the pooch is what i did it wasn't much of a race i think all the talk and
01:18:10all the stuff just going on man i just let go early i don't know flinch let go whatever it is
01:18:16but we were early and it was done
01:18:18i don't even cry alive dog they've been chattering like a little sewing circle about me guessing
01:18:29and there's one thing i can do out here that's cut some heads off on a tree they got in robin's head
01:18:35they told him i was guessing and he anticipated it and went red and that's what happens
01:18:40so let them guess if they think they can think i'm guessing all they want but it's gonna themselves
01:18:47did he go red yeah what are you at what do you mean did you make it yeah he just led me
01:18:54the half a car the whole way oh you didn't make the finals no sorry i'll let you down i'll let you down
01:19:01well i mean yeah they've been gaining very fast kind of needed you on that one i know
01:19:10so your invitational finals will be ryan martin versus damon merchant for 40 000
01:19:18well if you i think either way win or lose we're still ahead but not by most like five points
01:19:32if you win though we're ahead by like maybe 15 or 20. we trade over to kai's team now kind of a breath
01:19:38of fresh air for us and it's starting to pay off you know we've taken down some big big hitters today
