1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:04,940
No prep is one of the most intense
competitions in motorsports. What's
2
00:00:05,100 --> 00:00:07,920
dude? I got a quarter million dollars in
this car!
3
00:00:08,820 --> 00:00:13,780
Where drivers race down an eight -mile
track at speeds nearing 200 miles per
4
00:00:13,780 --> 00:00:19,460
hour. There is no room for error. One
mistake here, you're going home.
5
00:00:24,660 --> 00:00:27,120
For the last five years,
6
00:00:28,250 --> 00:00:32,110
Drivers have gone head -to -head racing
for an individual championship.
7
00:00:32,530 --> 00:00:34,310
Ryan Fireball Martin.
8
00:00:35,050 --> 00:00:38,130
But this year, we're doing something
we've never done before.
9
00:00:38,590 --> 00:00:43,230
We have eight teams led by eight
captains.
10
00:00:43,870 --> 00:00:47,150
This is no prep like you've never seen
it before.
11
00:00:47,510 --> 00:00:48,890
The racing is more intense.
12
00:00:49,450 --> 00:00:52,110
Everything that we're used to is no
longer.
13
00:00:52,330 --> 00:00:54,250
We got the money.
14
00:00:54,620 --> 00:00:55,620
That's the most important part.
15
00:00:55,740 --> 00:00:57,640
And winnings are bigger than ever.
16
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:58,960
Game on, baby.
17
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,720
That's huge. Pots are bigger. Cars are
faster.
18
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:04,920
With nearly a million dollars on the
line.
19
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:33,440
We've been starting off this wonderful
day here at Virginia Motorsports Park.
20
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:39,020
Today is our first 32 -car invitational
where racers can earn points for their
21
00:01:39,020 --> 00:01:42,400
team. Ten points per round. The further
you go, the more points you get.
22
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:50,180
We're the only team to have all five of
us make it in, and that says something.
23
00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:54,760
Since there are 40 racers on teams and
only 32 spots in the invitational, that
24
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:56,640
means not everyone is going to get to
compete.
25
00:01:57,500 --> 00:02:01,300
Obviously, the more racers a team has
in, the better chance they have to pull
26
00:02:01,300 --> 00:02:02,300
ahead.
27
00:02:03,260 --> 00:02:05,480
Today, invitational points.
28
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,180
Yes. $40 ,000.
29
00:02:07,940 --> 00:02:11,340
There are zero ducks in this deal. Like,
everybody's fast. Everybody.
30
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,480
This field is insane.
31
00:02:14,340 --> 00:02:18,500
20 racers that won in our qualifier last
week were guaranteed a spot this week.
32
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:23,320
Then, everyone else had to race for the
final 12 spots. And there were some
33
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:24,320
surprises.
34
00:02:25,219 --> 00:02:29,100
Team Captain Bodie was having car
problems and couldn't even make it to
35
00:02:29,100 --> 00:02:34,700
race. And Jerry Bird, the number one
draft pick overall, lost to Rich Bruder,
36
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:38,180
which means he is not racing in the
Invitational here in Virginia.
37
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,440
It's just depressing because I feel like
you picked me first and I'm kind of
38
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:44,480
letting you all down because I ain't
shining like I should.
39
00:02:44,860 --> 00:02:48,080
Well, you got the new car. You got the
new car blues. We all know how you run.
40
00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:49,680
The good thing is that you guys never
say quit.
41
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:54,600
Yeah, we're not quitting. Like I said,
since last week, we've been just at it.
42
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,960
mean, I'm going to wait a car out in the
first two races.
43
00:02:58,060 --> 00:03:02,860
But despite these surprises, the final
32 -car lineup is a strong one.
44
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,100
Team captains Disco Dean, Mike Murillo,
and Justin Swanstrom were all able to
45
00:03:08,100 --> 00:03:09,140
race their way in.
46
00:03:09,780 --> 00:03:13,540
That means that all the team captains,
except Bodie, will be racing tonight.
47
00:03:37,780 --> 00:03:43,740
One of the issues that we see with
Birdman's car, again, it's nothing to do
48
00:03:43,740 --> 00:03:44,980
Birdman as a driver.
49
00:03:45,380 --> 00:03:48,180
It's all to do with his car, and his car
hasn't been doing good.
50
00:03:48,780 --> 00:03:51,380
So, I hate to bring this up.
51
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:52,900
He hasn't made the trip.
52
00:03:53,370 --> 00:03:57,410
Right. Can we put somebody in that has
made the trip in his spot? The only
53
00:03:57,410 --> 00:04:02,490
reason I say that is because I just
don't see any sign of improvement just
54
00:04:02,530 --> 00:04:06,370
I know it's coming, but I'm just trying
to look for help for our team. Right. I
55
00:04:06,370 --> 00:04:09,090
just hate to roll in the first round
with not making the trip at all.
56
00:04:11,630 --> 00:04:15,290
I'd like to ask him and talk to him and
get a point blank his feel for it.
57
00:04:15,810 --> 00:04:18,149
Okay. Let's go next door and talk to him
about that.
58
00:04:19,130 --> 00:04:21,390
This is the year that we're doing team
championships.
59
00:04:21,670 --> 00:04:25,870
So team captains get to choose who's
going to be on their team. And before
60
00:04:25,870 --> 00:04:29,850
race, we can make a trade or we can drop
someone down and pick somebody up from
61
00:04:29,850 --> 00:04:30,669
the pool.
62
00:04:30,670 --> 00:04:33,370
That's something I have to think about
when it comes to Birdman.
63
00:04:34,950 --> 00:04:37,370
What's up, girls? What are y 'all doing?
64
00:04:38,070 --> 00:04:41,370
Birdman got a win in the qualifier, but
the only reason he got a win is because
65
00:04:41,370 --> 00:04:42,370
his opponent broke.
66
00:04:45,870 --> 00:04:47,290
Birdman has to get out of it.
67
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:48,760
5 of 60 foot.
68
00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:52,920
And in testing, he only made it 60 feet.
He didn't even make it 60 feet.
69
00:04:58,540 --> 00:05:02,320
Birdman has issues there on the hit. He
has to get out of it just past the 60
70
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:03,320
foot cone.
71
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,080
So it's my duty as a team captain to
make a choice whether I should drop
72
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:11,560
down, pull somebody else up, but I just
don't know how Birdman's going to take
73
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:12,560
that.
74
00:05:12,740 --> 00:05:15,480
Where do you feel that you are right
now?
75
00:05:15,790 --> 00:05:18,290
as far as making the trip this first
round?
76
00:05:18,850 --> 00:05:19,850
Not.
77
00:05:20,230 --> 00:05:25,350
So what we wanted to do, but wanted to
talk to you first and see how you felt
78
00:05:25,350 --> 00:05:31,030
about yours, is possibly pull Dominator,
or if you are adamant that you guys
79
00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:32,030
think that you're okay.
80
00:05:33,010 --> 00:05:38,670
I'm 50 -50 on it. We have T -minus less
than 10 minutes to pull Doc, Dominator,
81
00:05:38,850 --> 00:05:41,430
Dr. Dominator, basically.
82
00:05:42,270 --> 00:05:45,010
I don't know where I stand on it. I
really don't. I don't know that Dr.
83
00:05:45,390 --> 00:05:47,850
Dominator could do anything for it.
84
00:05:48,090 --> 00:05:51,710
But do whatever you want to do. It's up
to you. You're the captain.
85
00:05:51,910 --> 00:05:55,690
I know, but that's not how this works.
You know how that is. Yeah, we want to
86
00:05:55,690 --> 00:05:59,310
all talk about it. Yeah. You're not
going to stay in the pool if we do that.
87
00:05:59,310 --> 00:06:03,270
promise you. So what's the timeline?
What are we looking at? We bring
88
00:06:03,270 --> 00:06:06,230
up for this race while we're here in
Virginia. You know what I mean? Yeah.
89
00:06:06,230 --> 00:06:07,950
next week it goes back to the same thing
we had.
90
00:06:08,250 --> 00:06:09,250
Yeah. Okay.
91
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,000
It sucks for me. I don't like it.
Anybody in this position wouldn't like
92
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,000
But you just got to swallow that pill
and move on.
93
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,360
If that's what y 'all think is best for
the team, then that's what needs to be
94
00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,000
done. And I would probably be saying the
same thing from that end. If you're
95
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,760
okay with it, I'm going to do Dominator.
I've struggled the past few years. And
96
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,020
with the car being hurt.
97
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,440
So what's your deal? What's your
thoughts on Dom?
98
00:06:34,660 --> 00:06:39,300
Is he not? No, well, he had the motor
out. He had the motor out yesterday.
99
00:06:39,620 --> 00:06:40,319
Oh, he did?
100
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,840
Yep. At the end of the day, they got to
do what's right for the team.
101
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:46,920
What's up, Dominator?
102
00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:48,419
How you doing?
103
00:06:48,420 --> 00:06:49,420
How you doing there, man?
104
00:06:50,220 --> 00:06:52,960
I'm good. So how do you feel about, how
was your testing?
105
00:06:53,420 --> 00:06:56,840
We made it 60 foot, rattled the tires,
came back, made a shock adjustment, and
106
00:06:56,840 --> 00:06:59,920
went right down. Can you bump in? Is it
going to bump in? Yes.
107
00:07:00,280 --> 00:07:03,640
So Dominator wasn't at the draft, but we
know he's been out testing.
108
00:07:04,020 --> 00:07:08,840
I know he's been struggling, but I'm
hoping and praying that he is the guy to
109
00:07:08,840 --> 00:07:09,920
replace Birdman for now.
110
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,300
We need you to come on our team.
111
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:16,560
And it may be only temporarily. I get
it. Okay. I totally get it.
112
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:17,800
Are you good with that?
113
00:07:18,100 --> 00:07:19,180
Absolutely. Okay. Yes, sir.
114
00:07:19,540 --> 00:07:20,540
All right. Yep.
115
00:07:20,940 --> 00:07:23,340
Get ready. We love you. Thank you. Thank
you, Bill.
116
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:25,020
Awesome. Awesome. Thank you, buddy.
117
00:07:25,740 --> 00:07:26,740
Careful, guys.
118
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:28,200
Man, that was tough.
119
00:07:39,059 --> 00:07:44,020
All right, so I do believe I have all of
our racers here. There's 32 of them
120
00:07:44,020 --> 00:07:47,020
racing for that Invitational Team
Championship.
121
00:07:47,340 --> 00:07:52,220
For those that were here last night, you
saw the Grade 8. You got to see Ryan
122
00:07:52,220 --> 00:07:56,800
Martin win that race last night. $10
,000 in his pocket. Oh, yeah.
123
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,380
Today, a little different.
124
00:08:00,280 --> 00:08:02,100
All these drivers are on their
respective teams.
125
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:09,340
And also, we've had our first
substitution of the season. There is a
126
00:08:09,340 --> 00:08:14,520
pool that you can pool drivers from, and
one team has elected to do that.
127
00:08:16,380 --> 00:08:20,340
Team Mike Murillo has pooled from the
reserve pool.
128
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:24,720
They have sent Birdman down to the
reserve pool.
129
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:27,120
It has brought up Dominator.
130
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,420
Dominator is now on team.
131
00:08:32,949 --> 00:08:36,830
Murillo picking up Dominator, and it
just blows my mind. I just don't
132
00:08:36,830 --> 00:08:38,630
understand. He wasn't even at the last
race.
133
00:08:39,150 --> 00:08:42,690
So for Murillo to not even come over and
talk to me about it, give me the
134
00:08:42,690 --> 00:08:47,730
opportunity, huge kick in the... So I'm
going to go on record saying that if
135
00:08:47,730 --> 00:08:51,490
Murillo needs me later in the year, my
answer would be hell no.
136
00:08:52,130 --> 00:08:56,250
So... We're going to move into the chip
draw now.
137
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,540
There's some great matchups heading into
the first round of racing today, and
138
00:09:05,540 --> 00:09:10,320
three sets of teammates drew each other.
Mike Murillo and Scott Taylor, Ryan and
139
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,660
Robin Roberts, and Lizzie versus Chris
Rankin from Kai's team.
140
00:09:14,220 --> 00:09:17,900
They do have the option to trade chips
to break those matches up, but it's the
141
00:09:17,900 --> 00:09:20,200
first points race, so there might be a
different strategy.
142
00:09:20,660 --> 00:09:25,580
All right, my teams that drew each
other, can y 'all step forward here,
143
00:09:26,510 --> 00:09:28,790
Hey, Kyle. Well, you're first in line.
That's great.
144
00:09:29,230 --> 00:09:35,830
So we have three teams that have drawn
their teammates for a race. I would like
145
00:09:35,830 --> 00:09:39,190
for Scooter and Mike to swap it up if
they would like to.
146
00:09:40,610 --> 00:09:45,490
Scott and I drew each other first round.
So it's not an ideal situation. You
147
00:09:45,490 --> 00:09:46,510
don't want to race your teammates.
148
00:09:47,190 --> 00:09:50,610
However, I always look at things from
the big picture.
149
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:55,440
Any other way, it's a possibility that
he could go out and I could go out.
150
00:09:55,480 --> 00:09:58,620
Neither one of us are accomplishing
anything. We're not getting any points
151
00:09:58,620 --> 00:10:04,680
the team. So the good thing about it is
one of us is moving on and we start
152
00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:06,680
accruing some more of those team points
that we need.
153
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,340
Well, but Ryan, you probably want to do
something different, don't you? I mean,
154
00:10:10,340 --> 00:10:11,740
Ryan, what do you want to do?
155
00:10:11,980 --> 00:10:15,780
You know, I was kind of thinking that
since we were the first two to draw each
156
00:10:15,780 --> 00:10:18,780
other and you guys were the first two to
actually draw out of the bucket, you
157
00:10:18,780 --> 00:10:21,300
know, we kind of figured that out first
that we should swap.
158
00:10:21,740 --> 00:10:24,660
They were at the end. It really didn't
count. They were at the end.
159
00:10:25,060 --> 00:10:28,640
So I thought maybe. Well, I mean, you
count. Trust me. Your car's real fast.
160
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,080
I'm just saying you're at the end.
161
00:10:30,680 --> 00:10:33,100
So if we could do that, that's what I
think we should do.
162
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,740
And I think Kai's just trying to run
from me again.
163
00:10:35,940 --> 00:10:37,100
But I'm just saying.
164
00:10:37,500 --> 00:10:38,660
Wow. Kai.
165
00:10:40,140 --> 00:10:41,140
Kai, is that true?
166
00:10:42,680 --> 00:10:43,680
Maybe.
167
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,820
Mike, I got to hear from you. What do
you think should happen here? Well, with
168
00:10:47,820 --> 00:10:50,960
all that being said, the last thing I'm
going to do is try to help Kai.
169
00:10:51,450 --> 00:10:55,310
So we're going to stay where we are.
170
00:10:55,570 --> 00:10:56,570
Really?
171
00:10:56,730 --> 00:11:00,250
Okay. So if y 'all want to trade.
172
00:11:01,870 --> 00:11:05,110
Good job, Mike. That's the best thing
you could possibly do.
173
00:11:05,410 --> 00:11:09,230
That being said, the last thing I want
to do is help Ryan. So we'll probably
174
00:11:09,230 --> 00:11:09,989
stay, too.
175
00:11:09,990 --> 00:11:13,990
Let him take one of the two out. One of
the fastest cars is going to get out
176
00:11:13,990 --> 00:11:14,990
regardless, right?
177
00:11:15,270 --> 00:11:16,590
Yeah, we're going to stay also.
178
00:11:17,030 --> 00:11:19,970
Okay, so it sounds like the pairs are
staying as they are.
179
00:11:20,540 --> 00:11:23,620
Nobody wants to swap except for Ryan and
Robin.
180
00:11:24,680 --> 00:11:28,660
The matchups are set for the first round
of our $40 ,000 invitation.
181
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:34,120
Racers will earn 10 points per round,
going all the way to the finals where
182
00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:35,680
winner will earn 60 points.
183
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:39,300
That's a whole lot of points to
accumulate throughout the season.
184
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,740
But these team captains want to start
the season off right with a win and get
185
00:11:43,740 --> 00:11:44,740
ahead.
186
00:11:47,180 --> 00:11:49,020
We're here at Virginia Motorsports Park.
187
00:11:49,480 --> 00:11:52,200
Going to kick off the first round of our
invitational event.
188
00:11:53,140 --> 00:11:57,000
It's all about going rounds and earning
points for your team. You win, you move
189
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,360
on, you lose, you're out.
190
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:04,640
All right.
191
00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:07,240
First pair, though.
192
00:12:07,900 --> 00:12:11,120
We haven't made a hit with the rear
steer that's in it right now. Okay.
193
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,820
Whatever y 'all had in there against
Chuck 55 was a nice pass.
194
00:12:15,500 --> 00:12:18,400
So we're out here at Virginia
Motorsports Park. Everybody knows it's
195
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:22,400
track. I won MPK the last two years in a
row. Plan on making it a three -peat.
196
00:12:22,540 --> 00:12:25,660
It's the first invitational race that we
can actually start getting some points.
197
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,220
I drew Marty Robinson. I don't really
know a lot about him. I just know he's
198
00:12:29,220 --> 00:12:32,600
a nice hot rod. He's got some really
nice parts, and I've seen him making
199
00:12:32,600 --> 00:12:36,100
passes. I haven't had a chance to run
beside him yet, but here I am. I drew
200
00:12:36,100 --> 00:12:40,320
first pair down the track, and I'm going
to see firsthand how fast he really is.
201
00:12:41,100 --> 00:12:44,080
So you were chasing that Greenland we
had with the wiring.
202
00:12:44,460 --> 00:12:45,460
Find anything?
203
00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:46,459
Yep.
204
00:12:46,460 --> 00:12:49,400
One of the wires I spent loose, so
that's why I was intermittently trying
205
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:50,400
shift and not shift.
206
00:12:50,620 --> 00:12:55,540
So Marty Robinson drew last night's
runner -up in the great eight, Kai
207
00:12:55,900 --> 00:12:58,480
It's not a matchup you want first round
in the invitation.
208
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:01,680
Maybe turning the power down a little
bit will help us get that shake out of
209
00:13:01,680 --> 00:13:03,540
there and we can not be chasing broken
wires.
210
00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:07,400
Have a better shot at it. So we've just
come back from round one, chip draw.
211
00:13:07,940 --> 00:13:09,100
Drew, Kai, Kelly, all people.
212
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:11,320
Been chasing this Grimlin in the
transmission.
213
00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:15,140
We found out last night the car didn't
even shift out of first gear. So
214
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,360
after chasing it for hours this morning,
we found the wiring issue.
215
00:13:18,700 --> 00:13:20,960
Wire came loose out of the computer, got
it all fixed.
216
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:24,880
Car's shifting now, so feel pretty good
about this next run. Coming up with
217
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:25,880
Invitational.
218
00:13:27,980 --> 00:13:28,980
Here we go.
219
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:33,320
Invitational first round coming at you
right now over the left lane. That is
220
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:38,100
going to be Marty Robertson going up
against Kai Kelly. Kai Kelly in the
221
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:39,100
lane.
222
00:13:39,180 --> 00:13:40,380
Should be a good run for us.
223
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,900
Nice job right down through there. I
didn't have a clue what we were up
224
00:14:08,020 --> 00:14:11,780
so we just swung at it. Old car carried
the tires probably about 500 feet the
225
00:14:11,780 --> 00:14:12,459
whole path.
226
00:14:12,460 --> 00:14:14,180
It was dead hooked up, first pair down.
227
00:14:14,380 --> 00:14:15,940
We got a hot rod, ladies and gentlemen.
228
00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:17,160
Hell yeah.
229
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:26,060
The Buffalo Nickel.
230
00:14:26,300 --> 00:14:28,280
Oh, Buffalo Nickel, man. Those are
awesome.
231
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:31,020
I ain't never seen a Buffalo nickel,
man. I think it's a good look.
232
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:34,820
Let's get this first round out of our
back end.
233
00:14:35,100 --> 00:14:36,100
Let's go all the way.
234
00:14:36,660 --> 00:14:37,659
That's the game plan.
235
00:14:37,660 --> 00:14:38,660
Let's go get them.
236
00:14:38,860 --> 00:14:42,140
So I went out for a first -round chip
draw. You know, me, Callie, Jim Howe are
237
00:14:42,140 --> 00:14:43,780
in it. I think we all got good chip
draws.
238
00:14:44,260 --> 00:14:46,460
I'm second pair out going up against B
-Rad.
239
00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:49,700
Listen, I know he's going to be good on
the tree, and he's been going down the
240
00:14:49,700 --> 00:14:52,620
track. So I think I got a good car. I
just need to go out there and do my job,
241
00:14:52,660 --> 00:14:53,740
and let's see if we can pull off this
win.
242
00:14:54,240 --> 00:14:57,140
You know, I got this new Buffalo nickel,
so let's see if we get some good luck
243
00:14:57,140 --> 00:14:58,079
rolling our way.
244
00:14:58,080 --> 00:14:59,240
And see if we can take on some wins.
245
00:14:59,560 --> 00:15:00,940
Hey, let's get a partial shade.
246
00:15:01,180 --> 00:15:02,180
Come on.
247
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,840
Thank you. Appreciate it.
248
00:15:04,300 --> 00:15:08,520
It feels good to have all my team in.
Having all five of your guys is going to
249
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,240
go a long ways into getting more points
added to our pot.
250
00:15:12,660 --> 00:15:13,840
And hopefully,
251
00:15:14,820 --> 00:15:15,820
here we come championship.
252
00:15:20,189 --> 00:15:23,690
I drew Justice Wansham. What's crazy
about this is I haven't raced him for
253
00:15:23,690 --> 00:15:27,330
years, and I've done racing two times
now, the first event and this again in
254
00:15:27,330 --> 00:15:28,330
second event.
255
00:15:29,330 --> 00:15:30,330
Thank you, you too.
256
00:15:30,490 --> 00:15:34,550
He got me last time, but I was late in
the tree, but I know I'm there, so we
257
00:15:34,550 --> 00:15:36,210
just need to not be late, and I think we
might have him.
258
00:16:02,690 --> 00:16:06,130
Going to get their first turns on the
wind light. Nice job. He'll move on to
259
00:16:06,130 --> 00:16:10,690
next round. That was a close drag race
right there. B -Rad right next to him.
260
00:16:13,810 --> 00:16:16,470
Glad to get that first one out of the
way.
261
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:18,910
We're on to round two.
262
00:16:24,270 --> 00:16:25,229
And you?
263
00:16:25,230 --> 00:16:26,230
Golden.
264
00:16:26,330 --> 00:16:27,330
Ready to go? Yeah.
265
00:16:28,730 --> 00:16:30,450
First round, I got Jim Howell.
266
00:16:30,860 --> 00:16:33,240
In the last year, the dude was fast and
consistent.
267
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,100
The plan is to just gain points all the
time.
268
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:40,400
We can share data and we can help each
other so we can win this championship.
269
00:16:41,020 --> 00:16:45,260
My team has four of us going into the
Invitational. We're guaranteed the 40
270
00:16:45,260 --> 00:16:46,239
points for that.
271
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,320
That track is probably a greasy mess.
272
00:16:48,580 --> 00:16:49,760
It's a little slippery.
273
00:16:53,500 --> 00:16:58,180
Daddy Dave has made some good headway
here this year, so there's no ducks out
274
00:16:58,180 --> 00:16:59,180
here in this pond anymore.
275
00:16:59,970 --> 00:17:03,290
Everybody's a serious threat. The goal
is one round at a time. We don't want to
276
00:17:03,290 --> 00:17:04,069
look ahead.
277
00:17:04,069 --> 00:17:08,390
Had a little bit of a struggle bus here
getting everybody, you know, set up the
278
00:17:08,390 --> 00:17:09,390
way we want them to.
279
00:17:09,410 --> 00:17:13,869
But, you know, today I need myself and
Callie and Justin to go rounds.
280
00:17:14,349 --> 00:17:17,650
Our biggest problem is what we don't do
or what we miss.
281
00:17:18,910 --> 00:17:22,470
Jim taking on Daddy Dave. That's a
captain. If he can get rid of him,
282
00:17:22,470 --> 00:17:25,770
threat. So if we can get rid of him and
go ahead and start getting some points.
283
00:17:48,010 --> 00:17:49,010
You need to touch the lead.
284
00:17:58,690 --> 00:17:59,910
Kick some ass, girl.
285
00:18:02,010 --> 00:18:04,550
First round, I ended up drawing Chris
Rankin.
286
00:18:04,990 --> 00:18:08,290
Of course, a teammate. Like, this don't
change, apparently.
287
00:18:08,530 --> 00:18:11,010
Last year, I was drawing teammates left
and right.
288
00:18:14,680 --> 00:18:17,720
Two of my team drew each other. I only
had four going into the Invitational
289
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,460
today, and now two of us have drawn each
other.
290
00:18:20,580 --> 00:18:23,840
Ryan and Robin also drew each other, and
they just wanted to swap, but the team
291
00:18:23,840 --> 00:18:26,960
decided that we would rather race each
other so we could for sure have one
292
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:30,080
person moving to the next round. That
would give us more points. It's all
293
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:30,759
the points.
294
00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:33,400
If we would have raced both of them and
they would have beat both of us, we
295
00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:35,980
would have had no points, and they would
have had 20. It's all about strategy
296
00:18:35,980 --> 00:18:39,260
here. We're trying to get to that number
one goal, the team with the most
297
00:18:39,260 --> 00:18:40,260
points.
298
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:03,360
We've got Chris Rankin in the right
lane. Going up against Lizzie Mewson in
299
00:19:03,360 --> 00:19:04,360
left lane.
300
00:19:23,660 --> 00:19:26,160
And Lizzie Mewson gets the win.
301
00:19:30,330 --> 00:19:34,310
As soon as the lights turned green, I
left. And I saw him for a little bit,
302
00:19:34,310 --> 00:19:36,750
I didn't see him anymore. Apparently he
had problems again.
303
00:19:37,070 --> 00:19:41,110
And my car made a nice clean pass, got
there first, and got the win. So I was
304
00:19:41,110 --> 00:19:44,670
happy with that. We got data to work
with. We're moving on to the second
305
00:19:44,790 --> 00:19:46,170
We're moving on up. Here we go.
306
00:19:49,410 --> 00:19:51,530
This is a big race for Team Bodie.
307
00:19:52,050 --> 00:19:54,590
Nate Saylor was Bodie's top pick in the
draft.
308
00:19:54,870 --> 00:19:58,450
So he is counting on him to deliver a
ton of round wins.
309
00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:00,320
and a lot of points this season.
310
00:20:00,820 --> 00:20:04,340
All right, next pair coming at you right
here are going to be Kyle Kane over
311
00:20:04,340 --> 00:20:08,640
there in the right lane going up against
Nick Saylor in the left.
312
00:20:11,180 --> 00:20:14,940
This is the first of the points. This is
my first race ever in the Invitational
313
00:20:14,940 --> 00:20:19,560
today. I'm pretty excited, pretty
anxious. I know what the car can do.
314
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,120
going to be really dependent on me.
315
00:20:22,740 --> 00:20:26,100
Kyle had a horrible look in Ohio. He
kicked some rods out of the motor.
316
00:20:26,750 --> 00:20:30,230
He got him a new motor. He earned his
spot in the Invitational today.
317
00:20:31,650 --> 00:20:35,570
Kyle's got a lot of drive to him. He
knows that this is an opportunity for
318
00:20:35,570 --> 00:20:40,210
to step up and shine above everybody
else. And that dedication and that
319
00:20:40,210 --> 00:20:43,990
determination is what's going to get him
into the winner's circle and keep him
320
00:20:43,990 --> 00:20:44,990
on my team.
321
00:21:16,270 --> 00:21:17,970
This is the trickiest round to go
through.
322
00:21:18,710 --> 00:21:22,870
Sun's blazing down on the track. First
round is a very important round for our
323
00:21:22,870 --> 00:21:27,610
team. This is the first race here in
Virginia that 40 grand is up for grabs,
324
00:21:27,610 --> 00:21:29,870
also the team championship points.
325
00:21:30,090 --> 00:21:33,610
The more rounds we go, the more points
we accumulate. We need to stay ahead and
326
00:21:33,610 --> 00:21:34,950
gain points to win this championship.
327
00:21:38,970 --> 00:21:39,970
All right.
328
00:21:40,030 --> 00:21:44,390
We've got Manny Alvarez in the left lane
going up against Rich Bruder in the
329
00:21:44,390 --> 00:21:45,390
right.
330
00:21:46,550 --> 00:21:50,050
Manny, he struggled a little bit. He had
some suspension problems.
331
00:21:50,470 --> 00:21:54,850
He says he figured those out, so
hopefully he's got a hot rod this
332
00:21:55,410 --> 00:22:01,230
We've got fast cars in our crew, and all
we need them to do is make good,
333
00:22:01,250 --> 00:22:02,910
consistent passes, and we're going to be
all right.
334
00:22:29,870 --> 00:22:32,690
I knew Rich has always been fast.
335
00:22:32,910 --> 00:22:34,050
Rich's car runs good.
336
00:22:34,270 --> 00:22:37,670
They've got a new screw blower
combination that runs very well. And
337
00:22:37,670 --> 00:22:39,510
making moves and pivoting along the way.
338
00:22:39,930 --> 00:22:43,470
They changed some stuff yesterday in
testing that helped the car. And every
339
00:22:43,470 --> 00:22:44,470
I see that car gets faster.
340
00:22:44,670 --> 00:22:47,850
We get one lucky round, that's our lucky
round. So, yeah.
341
00:22:48,530 --> 00:22:52,350
Team Murder Nova came into the event
with all five of his drivers in the
342
00:22:52,350 --> 00:22:55,310
round. Now he's down to three after
Manny's loss.
343
00:22:55,750 --> 00:22:59,770
And he has drivers in each of the next
two races, including... Jeff Luck, his
344
00:22:59,770 --> 00:23:03,630
number one pick going up against Bobby
Ducote. It sounds like Bobby's having
345
00:23:03,630 --> 00:23:04,750
some problems in his pit.
346
00:23:09,590 --> 00:23:10,590
Is there a pig?
347
00:23:10,750 --> 00:23:13,350
He has one, but he needs a cam sensor.
348
00:23:13,610 --> 00:23:16,510
He needs a cam sensor. Mike Bowman has
one. Oh, yeah, I was going to say, yeah,
349
00:23:16,550 --> 00:23:17,289
we probably have one, yeah.
350
00:23:17,290 --> 00:23:20,030
I had my team over here. Scott Taylor
was helping me.
351
00:23:20,950 --> 00:23:23,790
Had one of his guys over here. We had an
issue with a sensor. It had a broke
352
00:23:23,790 --> 00:23:24,790
wire in it.
353
00:23:25,050 --> 00:23:28,150
So for now, I don't have the stuff with
me to do the pin. I would just butt
354
00:23:28,150 --> 00:23:29,790
connect it. You got stuff to do that?
355
00:23:30,250 --> 00:23:31,730
Butt connect it? Yeah. Do you?
356
00:23:32,490 --> 00:23:34,830
We want to win a team championship.
357
00:23:35,310 --> 00:23:38,770
And in order to do that, all of us have
to be firing on all eight cylinders. So
358
00:23:38,770 --> 00:23:41,450
the whole team jumped in and got it done
and fixed.
359
00:23:46,530 --> 00:23:48,230
I got up there for round one, chip draw.
360
00:23:48,910 --> 00:23:52,210
And when they called number seven, I was
ready. I wasn't waiting. I just walked
361
00:23:52,210 --> 00:23:52,919
out there.
362
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:56,820
And then a little short dude, Jeff Lutz,
walked out and I said, this dude's been
363
00:23:56,820 --> 00:23:58,120
racing since I was even thought of.
364
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,120
My number one draft pick, Jeff Lutz.
365
00:24:05,360 --> 00:24:09,880
Hopefully he's got a nice hot rod this
weekend and he can do what I picked him
366
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,420
to do, you know, and that's go rounds.
367
00:24:13,180 --> 00:24:16,640
He's going to be a front runner anytime
he races. That's what he does.
368
00:24:55,820 --> 00:25:00,080
bulbs come on i let go of the button i
can look over and i just kept seeing you
369
00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:05,920
know started creeping up i'm in the car
going yeah like hell yeah i was all
370
00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:07,700
excited going to second round
371
00:25:07,700 --> 00:25:14,540
get them all in there bubba
372
00:25:14,540 --> 00:25:20,660
today is the first point phrase it's
absolutely crucial to go around here
373
00:25:20,660 --> 00:25:24,260
though I made the grade 8 last night,
next week could be altogether different
374
00:25:24,260 --> 00:25:27,300
we don't perform here today and I could
get passed up extremely easy.
375
00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,139
One more time.
376
00:25:29,140 --> 00:25:30,920
I am feeling confident in my car.
377
00:25:31,220 --> 00:25:35,520
We tend to be the slowest first round.
You cannot do this here. You cannot make
378
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,020
any mistakes against Chuck 55.
379
00:25:37,260 --> 00:25:40,480
He is very fast. We were in the same
position last night. We have the same
380
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,180
amount of points in the grade 8. You
could argue and say that we're very
381
00:25:44,180 --> 00:25:45,980
matched here, and I'm up for the
challenge.
382
00:25:46,940 --> 00:25:47,960
All right, Daddy, let's go.
383
00:25:50,870 --> 00:25:54,630
We still were struggling a little bit on
that short game. You know, from the hit
384
00:25:54,630 --> 00:25:56,670
to about 100 feet, we're struggling.
385
00:25:57,330 --> 00:25:59,890
Going into this round, I'm not going to
lie, I'm a little bit nervous.
386
00:26:00,110 --> 00:26:02,570
I feel like our cars are pretty closely
matched.
387
00:26:03,130 --> 00:26:06,950
And Kayla's got two teammates that's
running identical combinations.
388
00:26:07,490 --> 00:26:12,130
And her tuner that they share is going
to have the data to know what the track
389
00:26:12,130 --> 00:26:15,190
will hold ahead of time. He can go back,
make a few changes.
390
00:26:15,450 --> 00:26:18,510
So they're going to have a tuning
advantage.
391
00:26:19,180 --> 00:26:22,520
I don't want to make any big changes,
big swings on the converter pressure
392
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:26,380
now because I don't want to be out in
the left field going up there first
393
00:26:26,460 --> 00:26:29,580
This is an important round because if we
lose this round, we could possibly be
394
00:26:29,580 --> 00:26:31,880
racing our way in. We don't want to take
that chance.
395
00:26:32,660 --> 00:26:34,540
We're going to go out there and pull
back.
396
00:26:34,980 --> 00:26:35,980
All right.
397
00:26:47,120 --> 00:26:47,779
All right, Nick.
398
00:26:47,780 --> 00:26:52,320
There, that's going to be Chuck 55 going
up against Kayla Morton.
399
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:57,800
Kayla, she's doing amazing, and we're
all standing on her shoulders. She won
400
00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:02,320
Ohio. She went to the Final Four last
night in the Grade 8. I mean, she is on
401
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,540
point, and she's rocking it.
402
00:27:08,140 --> 00:27:11,920
So Chuck 55's car's rolling. He made it
to the Final Four of the Grade 8. You
403
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,040
know, he's in the Grade 8. First off,
you know, that's amazing.
404
00:27:15,500 --> 00:27:18,320
and people are starting to realize why
he was one of my top picks.
405
00:27:28,940 --> 00:27:35,900
All right, next pair. That's going to be
406
00:27:35,900 --> 00:27:39,300
Chuck 55 going up against Taylor Martin.
407
00:27:40,940 --> 00:27:44,400
Round one continues in this invitation
with another big matchup.
408
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,400
It's Chuck 55 from Team Murder Nova
going up against Kayla from Team Daddy
409
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:16,280
All my guys are out.
410
00:28:16,780 --> 00:28:17,780
Out? Everyone.
411
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:18,919
You?
412
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,820
Not me. Haven't we yet? Oh. I'm the last
one left, though.
413
00:28:27,220 --> 00:28:29,340
So last night, we were able to pull off
a grade 8 win.
414
00:28:29,740 --> 00:28:30,960
We had a transmission problem.
415
00:28:31,220 --> 00:28:33,080
Pulling the car out to go take it up the
staging lane.
416
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,180
Transmission's making some weird
clicking noise I've never even heard of.
417
00:28:36,300 --> 00:28:37,940
Somebody tell me what is going on. What
is this?
418
00:28:39,820 --> 00:28:40,820
It's clanging and banging.
419
00:28:41,580 --> 00:28:44,100
I think I've had every problem you could
possibly have in a race car. I've never
420
00:28:44,100 --> 00:28:44,729
had this one.
421
00:28:44,730 --> 00:28:46,570
So what did we do? Replace the whole
training now? Yes.
422
00:28:47,310 --> 00:28:49,830
I'm pretty sure we're going to be
standing up all night replacing
423
00:28:50,450 --> 00:28:53,150
We went through and changed the
transmission out, torqued all the rods.
424
00:28:53,150 --> 00:28:54,150
were all good.
425
00:28:54,330 --> 00:28:55,990
And then Robert and I drew each other.
426
00:28:56,490 --> 00:28:59,050
Not even almost how I wanted that to go.
427
00:28:59,310 --> 00:29:01,110
It was worst possible case scenario.
428
00:29:01,690 --> 00:29:05,230
The one guy on my team that I for sure
really, really, really don't want to
429
00:29:05,230 --> 00:29:07,090
draw, we screwed that up.
430
00:29:09,340 --> 00:29:10,620
It's a worst -case scenario.
431
00:29:10,860 --> 00:29:14,520
You absolutely couldn't have picked a
worse case than for Ryan and I to drive
432
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,840
each other. We think we're two of the
fastest cars here.
433
00:29:17,100 --> 00:29:20,300
Now we've got to challenge each other.
Look, the only good thing about the two
434
00:29:20,300 --> 00:29:22,700
of us running each other is one of us
goes forward.
435
00:29:22,980 --> 00:29:27,280
And the worst part of it, whoever
doesn't win between the two of us, now
436
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,420
other one's going to have to race their
way in in Minnesota.
437
00:29:29,900 --> 00:29:31,740
Again, worst -case scenario.
438
00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:36,300
Yep. I just got to get one round, so I
have to race my way in. I've never had
439
00:29:36,300 --> 00:29:37,620
race my way in before ever.
440
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,960
I don't want today to be the first day.
441
00:29:59,700 --> 00:30:02,720
And Robin Roberts will take the win
there.
442
00:30:03,460 --> 00:30:06,280
Ryan Martin, like he shook the tires
there early.
443
00:30:07,310 --> 00:30:08,310
Unable to recover.
444
00:30:08,730 --> 00:30:11,290
Robin Roberts will take the win and move
on to the next round.
445
00:30:14,290 --> 00:30:15,890
Green light drops. We'll take off.
446
00:30:16,850 --> 00:30:21,470
My car goes into instant tire shake,
which I felt first round testing before
447
00:30:21,470 --> 00:30:23,750
when I got here, and I just watched
Robin drive off.
448
00:30:23,950 --> 00:30:26,490
Nothing I could do. Didn't matter how
many times I could pedal it.
449
00:30:26,810 --> 00:30:27,950
He made a clean path.
450
00:30:28,210 --> 00:30:30,250
He went A to B. Mine didn't go anywhere.
451
00:30:31,030 --> 00:30:33,750
Sucks we drew each other, but at least
one of us is going on.
452
00:30:34,110 --> 00:30:35,099
Good job.
453
00:30:35,100 --> 00:30:37,600
Yeah, it's all good. Good job. Hey, good
job. Thank you. Yep.
454
00:30:38,220 --> 00:30:42,880
How about a potential surprise of the
year? Team captain and returning No Prep
455
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:47,200
Kings champ, three -time champ, Ryan
Martin is out in the first round. That
456
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,780
means he will be racing his way in next
week, and guess what? That is the first
457
00:30:50,780 --> 00:30:52,280
time ever that he's had to do that.
458
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:56,220
But coming up next is going to be a
matchup between Team Bodie and Team
459
00:30:56,220 --> 00:30:59,200
Dean. Both have already lost a driver in
round one today.
460
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,620
We actually probably made better passes
than we probably went faster than we've
461
00:31:07,620 --> 00:31:08,620
ever went here.
462
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:09,819
That's good.
463
00:31:09,820 --> 00:31:12,980
We should be right up there with them
top dogs for sure.
464
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:17,820
So here in Virginia, right now, feeling
great. The car has never been faster.
465
00:31:18,640 --> 00:31:22,060
We're slowly creeping up on this deal
and getting a handle on it with this new
466
00:31:22,060 --> 00:31:25,020
combination. It's just getting faster
and faster and faster.
467
00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:27,460
And the more comfortable we get, the
more dangerous we're going to be.
468
00:31:27,900 --> 00:31:29,920
So in the driver's meeting, we drew
Larry Larson.
469
00:31:30,510 --> 00:31:34,290
Never ran that guy, but I'm telling you,
when we line up today, he better have
470
00:31:34,290 --> 00:31:39,070
it together because last night we made
two test passes, back -to -back personal
471
00:31:39,070 --> 00:31:43,610
bests. We were flying, so if our pass
today goes anything like last night,
472
00:31:43,610 --> 00:31:44,610
put him on the trailer early.
473
00:31:53,070 --> 00:31:54,070
Larry Larson drew Damon.
474
00:31:54,390 --> 00:31:57,490
He's been making a lot of great passes.
He's making the transition from the
475
00:31:57,490 --> 00:32:00,390
street to no prep kings, and he's shown
a lot of promise.
476
00:32:04,570 --> 00:32:06,310
Not really too concerned about who I
got.
477
00:32:06,770 --> 00:32:09,770
Biggest thing is we just got to get past
first round so that we don't have to
478
00:32:09,770 --> 00:32:11,110
race our way in for next weekend.
479
00:32:13,630 --> 00:32:17,050
The first two rounds are going to be
really important to get down the
480
00:32:17,050 --> 00:32:18,530
and after that, then it's going to be
game on.
481
00:32:39,050 --> 00:32:40,050
We need to go.
482
00:32:40,190 --> 00:32:42,190
That's two of them. Good one, y 'all.
Good one, baby.
483
00:32:43,190 --> 00:32:44,190
Yes, J -Man.
484
00:32:48,290 --> 00:32:49,950
I just heard that you drew Mike.
485
00:32:50,210 --> 00:32:51,770
Yeah. That sucks.
486
00:32:52,090 --> 00:32:57,430
Yeah. Well, you know, the only thing
about it is we was going to swap, and
487
00:32:57,430 --> 00:33:01,170
obviously we wouldn't do the game to
where we call out our teammate or
488
00:33:01,170 --> 00:33:04,750
like that, but Mike's having some
trouble, and instead his car's making a
489
00:33:04,750 --> 00:33:08,790
noise. The new motor is? The new motor
is. So he turns around and looks at me.
490
00:33:08,810 --> 00:33:11,810
He's like, I don't want to give it to
anybody else. We drew each other. Let's
491
00:33:11,810 --> 00:33:12,810
just leave it the way it is.
492
00:33:15,770 --> 00:33:18,150
Scott and I drew each other first round.
493
00:33:19,070 --> 00:33:24,050
Prior to going up there, we started the
new motor for the first time, and it did
494
00:33:24,050 --> 00:33:28,190
not sound right. So that's in the back
of my mind because I don't know what
495
00:33:28,190 --> 00:33:31,890
we got going on. The oil pressure was
low. We for sure don't want to hurt
496
00:33:31,890 --> 00:33:35,930
another motor. Once I came back, We got
our oil pressure. We had to swap some
497
00:33:35,930 --> 00:33:40,550
parts off the old motor, oil pump -wise,
and put it in this motor. We sound
498
00:33:40,550 --> 00:33:44,050
good. We feel good. So I'm going to give
it all I got with Scott.
499
00:33:46,830 --> 00:33:52,830
Here's the deal. If I beat Scott, I
deserve to go to the next round. If I
500
00:33:52,830 --> 00:33:54,750
Scott deserves to go to the next round.
501
00:33:55,750 --> 00:33:59,630
Next pair coming at you right now, and
that would be Mike Murillo.
502
00:34:00,630 --> 00:34:03,290
He is going up against his teammate,
Scott.
503
00:34:03,610 --> 00:34:04,610
Taylor.
504
00:34:19,210 --> 00:34:23,330
Next pair coming at you right now, that
will be Mike Murillo.
505
00:34:24,250 --> 00:34:27,469
He is going up against his teammate,
Scott Taylor.
506
00:34:52,460 --> 00:34:55,159
Scott Taylor rattled the tires, but he's
still going to get the win. Mike
507
00:34:55,159 --> 00:34:57,440
Merlo's car dies on the starting line.
508
00:34:58,880 --> 00:34:59,880
Sorry, guys.
509
00:35:00,900 --> 00:35:04,780
It didn't work out how we planned, but
Scott knocked the tires off. I didn't
510
00:35:04,780 --> 00:35:08,380
happen to just beat him, and then I
couldn't make it to the next round, so
511
00:35:08,380 --> 00:35:10,740
actually worked out as good as it could
possibly work out.
512
00:35:11,400 --> 00:35:12,400
Sorry, guys.
513
00:35:13,540 --> 00:35:15,800
Scott Taylor is going to catch a break
there.
514
00:35:18,090 --> 00:35:21,870
There are just five races left in round
one, and so far we've seen some major
515
00:35:21,870 --> 00:35:26,050
upsets. Team captains Dave and Ryan
Martin have both been knocked out.
516
00:35:26,270 --> 00:35:30,670
Murder Noble went from having five of
his drivers in the event down to just
517
00:35:31,030 --> 00:35:34,470
He is the only one left, and he hasn't
raced yet. But first, it's a battle
518
00:35:34,470 --> 00:35:38,370
between Team Kai and Team Boat, as David
Gates goes up against Mike Bowman.
519
00:35:40,610 --> 00:35:42,530
Like with Jeff Kai, if you ain't first,
you last.
520
00:35:42,810 --> 00:35:44,230
Right. At least from here, right?
521
00:35:44,570 --> 00:35:45,570
Yeah, we're on it.
522
00:35:45,870 --> 00:35:49,110
We didn't have to race our way in like
the first four races last year.
523
00:35:50,410 --> 00:35:54,890
I don't know. It's been a lot better
year and a lot more confident with
524
00:35:54,890 --> 00:35:55,890
this chassis.
525
00:35:56,930 --> 00:36:00,110
Yeah. If I just don't get up, then I'll
be doing good. What do you think?
526
00:36:01,170 --> 00:36:04,130
I feel great. You know, the weather's
good. The track's going to be a little
527
00:36:04,130 --> 00:36:05,870
greasy. This car likes it.
528
00:36:06,070 --> 00:36:07,570
Got the best tuner on the keyboard.
529
00:36:08,090 --> 00:36:09,830
I think we got a decent draw.
530
00:36:10,170 --> 00:36:12,390
Bowman was in the grade eight with us
last night.
531
00:36:12,970 --> 00:36:15,590
So I know he's fast, and to be able to
go out there and knock him off right at
532
00:36:15,590 --> 00:36:19,430
first, I think that's what we need to do
and set our pace for the day and not
533
00:36:19,430 --> 00:36:20,049
let up.
534
00:36:20,050 --> 00:36:24,570
I know we're getting ready to go and
stuff, but we need to just kind of
535
00:36:24,570 --> 00:36:25,328
-check everything.
536
00:36:25,330 --> 00:36:26,910
This will be the first run on this one.
537
00:36:27,730 --> 00:36:30,910
Didn't like what I saw on the last one,
so we had to change that blower out.
538
00:36:32,090 --> 00:36:35,990
So we matched up with David Gates, and
we're going to go out there and do our
539
00:36:35,990 --> 00:36:39,010
best. I know he's fast. It's Kai's old
car. We're fast, too.
540
00:36:39,550 --> 00:36:40,970
So just got to be on the light.
541
00:36:41,660 --> 00:36:44,140
and make a good run and get on to the
next round.
542
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:52,800
It's going to be over 100 degrees on the
racetrack, so it'll be a little bit
543
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:57,900
sensitive. I'm going to go for it, see
what happens. I think my car will be all
544
00:36:57,900 --> 00:37:01,080
right out there, and hopefully we'll be
fast enough to win. Track conditions are
545
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:03,680
going to be a little bit tough, though.
First round, they always are. Step it up
546
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:04,680
from there.
547
00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:25,160
Straight down Broadway there.
548
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:26,740
Greepy -ass track, man.
549
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,080
Mike Bowman rattles the tires in that
right lane.
550
00:37:30,580 --> 00:37:31,920
And that was all she wrote.
551
00:37:32,700 --> 00:37:35,580
Keep going and good luck. Thank you,
man. Yes, sir.
552
00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,120
You got your jacket in there?
553
00:37:41,540 --> 00:37:45,260
I was just trying not to put it on until
I had to. Here at the second race,
554
00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,880
which is our first race, Murillo and his
crew come over.
555
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,580
Burban's still struggling with some
programming or something in his car.
556
00:37:52,190 --> 00:37:55,290
They've asked me to come and be on their
team for the weekend. It may be just
557
00:37:55,290 --> 00:37:56,109
this weekend.
558
00:37:56,110 --> 00:37:57,110
It may be permanent.
559
00:37:57,310 --> 00:38:01,330
We don't know. We drew murdering of a
13th pair. The plan is we're going out
560
00:38:01,330 --> 00:38:03,430
there. We're going to throw everything
at it. We're going to smash it.
561
00:38:03,710 --> 00:38:06,030
Look at it this way. We're just on
separate teams together.
562
00:38:06,790 --> 00:38:07,790
We're on the same team.
563
00:38:08,490 --> 00:38:09,490
Don't get twisted.
564
00:38:10,030 --> 00:38:13,950
Every round when they call who is racing
who, you're like, oh, that's going to
565
00:38:13,950 --> 00:38:16,590
be a good race. Oh, that's going to be a
good race. Damn, I'm glad I didn't get
566
00:38:16,590 --> 00:38:17,590
him, you know.
567
00:38:18,070 --> 00:38:20,270
This year, one mistake, you're done.
568
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,420
It worked out, putting Birdman down.
569
00:38:43,740 --> 00:38:44,880
I don't feel so dumb.
570
00:38:45,220 --> 00:38:48,200
You know what I mean? I actually feel
like I'm pretty smart, you know? We got
571
00:38:48,200 --> 00:38:51,140
Scott still in, and so, man, I'm going
to do everything I can to help him, and
572
00:38:51,140 --> 00:38:54,080
our team's going to help them and do
whatever we can to keep them going.
573
00:38:57,300 --> 00:38:58,980
Tire shake. Man, it was shaking hard.
574
00:38:59,380 --> 00:39:02,780
This sucker shook so hard, we just broke
a rod in in a freaking wheelie bar.
575
00:39:03,740 --> 00:39:05,700
You knocked the tire out? All right, I
did.
576
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:08,600
Let go of the button.
577
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:10,960
Shook my teeth out.
578
00:39:11,240 --> 00:39:12,460
We overpowered the track.
579
00:39:12,980 --> 00:39:13,980
We messed up.
580
00:39:16,820 --> 00:39:20,760
We had that moment where all five of my
guys were in first round.
581
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:24,480
Nobody's left. At least it was Dom. You
know, at least Dom's going to the next
582
00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:25,480
round.
583
00:39:29,740 --> 00:39:32,820
Brandon is here. Brandon's a very
talented, smart guy.
584
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:34,120
Brandon James.
585
00:39:34,380 --> 00:39:36,060
Brandon's got a new car, new setup.
586
00:39:36,260 --> 00:39:37,260
He's going to be badass.
587
00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:40,480
Today, we're rolling off each other and
straight up the track as fast as
588
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:41,980
possible. That's going to be tough.
589
00:39:52,220 --> 00:39:55,020
Axeman, man, he's got the job that
everybody wants.
590
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:56,580
He shows up with a suit and a helmet.
591
00:39:56,780 --> 00:39:58,380
He's driving Steven Brindle's car.
592
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:02,640
With them guys working together the way
they do, Axeman's going to do things
593
00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:03,640
this year also.
594
00:40:48,590 --> 00:40:52,610
Brandon shook just like a lot of other
cars that went down that left lane. We
595
00:40:52,610 --> 00:40:56,450
expect him to do better and contribute
also the next race. And so we're ready
596
00:40:56,450 --> 00:40:57,490
get there and get going.
597
00:40:58,110 --> 00:40:59,850
It's okay. We live to fight another day.
598
00:41:04,110 --> 00:41:06,050
Man, I feel good taking on that fast
car.
599
00:41:07,410 --> 00:41:11,390
Next pair up, we got Greg Chandler going
up against Cali Mills.
600
00:41:13,910 --> 00:41:16,110
Greg Chandler versus Cali Mills.
601
00:41:19,549 --> 00:41:22,430
Greg's been getting it together, so
let's hope he can keep it together for
602
00:41:22,430 --> 00:41:23,430
seconds and get around it.
603
00:41:26,430 --> 00:41:30,570
Hi, Drew. Greg Chandler. You never know
what could happen, so we're going to do
604
00:41:30,570 --> 00:41:33,010
the same exact thing we did last night
on Race Your Way In.
605
00:41:33,230 --> 00:41:35,290
Don't worry about what they do. Just do
what we do.
606
00:41:38,570 --> 00:41:41,970
We're behind in points right now on all
the other teams.
607
00:41:42,350 --> 00:41:45,770
We've got to try to capitalize and try
to do up so we can make up for our
608
00:41:45,770 --> 00:41:46,770
that didn't make it in.
609
00:42:05,290 --> 00:42:06,290
Pass right there from her.
610
00:42:07,110 --> 00:42:10,030
Congratulations to her and her team.
They will move on to the next round.
611
00:42:15,270 --> 00:42:19,010
All the fast cars have been losing.
People are knocking the tire off. We're
612
00:42:19,010 --> 00:42:22,470
making the full trip. So tune -up's a
big part of it this round.
613
00:42:22,750 --> 00:42:25,030
First round of the Invitational, we get
Giuseppe.
614
00:42:25,530 --> 00:42:28,370
Obviously, he's on Ryan Martin's team.
He has a force to be reckoned with.
615
00:42:28,730 --> 00:42:30,990
Ryan wouldn't pick him if he didn't have
his team together.
616
00:42:32,370 --> 00:42:33,990
Conditions are hot muggy.
617
00:42:34,350 --> 00:42:37,490
So we're not going to make a lot of
power, and on top of it, the track is
618
00:42:37,490 --> 00:42:38,428
to be greasy.
619
00:42:38,430 --> 00:42:40,970
I don't care how the run looks. I just
want to see wind life.
620
00:42:42,570 --> 00:42:47,070
Look, it is hot here. The track
conditions are gooey, limey.
621
00:42:47,650 --> 00:42:50,830
That always proves to be a problem with
traction.
622
00:42:53,670 --> 00:42:54,930
So we drew Disco Dean.
623
00:42:55,250 --> 00:42:59,330
Disco Dean is fast, so we put a good
tune -up in it. We're ready to kick some
624
00:42:59,330 --> 00:43:01,570
ass today and put some points up for
Team Ryan.
625
00:43:01,910 --> 00:43:03,530
All right, this will be the last pair.
626
00:43:04,270 --> 00:43:09,750
The invitational first round over in
that left lane. That'll be Giuseppe
627
00:43:09,750 --> 00:43:12,810
up against Disco D in the right lane.
628
00:43:32,490 --> 00:43:33,490
Giuseppe.
629
00:43:34,130 --> 00:43:38,610
Nice pass in that left lane. Giuseppe
moves on to the second round.
630
00:43:39,850 --> 00:43:44,290
It's been a wild first round here in
Virginia, as only two of the eight
631
00:43:44,290 --> 00:43:48,430
remain. Team Disco and Team Murdanova
are completely out of the competition,
632
00:43:48,630 --> 00:43:51,690
while teams Murillo and Bodie have two
each.
633
00:43:51,930 --> 00:43:56,590
Meanwhile, team captains Ryan, Dave,
Kai, and Swastram each have three racers
634
00:43:56,590 --> 00:44:00,650
left. They're still in the running for
that $40 ,000 prize and gaining points
635
00:44:00,650 --> 00:44:01,650
for their team.
636
00:44:07,530 --> 00:44:11,050
We're now moving into round two, and
these drivers are adding ten more points
637
00:44:11,050 --> 00:44:12,050
their team total.
638
00:44:12,750 --> 00:44:16,730
Okay, so let's get this driver's meeting
started. We are in the second round
639
00:44:16,730 --> 00:44:19,910
now. I've noticed that there are some
faces missing.
640
00:44:20,290 --> 00:44:25,710
You almost always see Ryan Martin in the
second round of a race, and as you can
641
00:44:25,710 --> 00:44:28,390
tell, he is not in this driver's
meeting.
642
00:44:28,630 --> 00:44:30,510
I didn't make it in, which is terrible.
643
00:44:31,020 --> 00:44:34,180
But, you know, three out of my five guys
is good. You can do a lot of damage
644
00:44:34,180 --> 00:44:37,380
with three people. And I've got three
heavy hitters, three hard hitting guys
645
00:44:37,380 --> 00:44:41,260
that will do really good. So hopefully
those three guys can stay away from each
646
00:44:41,260 --> 00:44:43,880
other and my team can continue to
advance.
647
00:44:45,140 --> 00:44:50,080
With that being said, there are a couple
teams that now have no members
648
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:51,460
remaining in this race.
649
00:44:51,900 --> 00:44:56,420
Disco Dean and Murder Nova, who had all
five.
650
00:44:57,420 --> 00:45:01,360
Of his teammates in the first round is
now down to zero.
651
00:45:02,140 --> 00:45:05,840
Going into round two, I still got three
going to the next round. So that's
652
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:09,180
pretty good considering Sean lost all
five of his in the first round. So I
653
00:45:09,180 --> 00:45:10,620
really got a good feeling about today.
654
00:45:10,820 --> 00:45:13,060
Only thing I'm worried about is meeting
one of them in his chip draw.
655
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,120
So, you all ready to draw? See who
you're going to race next?
656
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:18,000
All right, let's do it.
657
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:19,480
All right.
658
00:45:19,720 --> 00:45:21,540
Okay, you go ahead. Go ahead.
659
00:45:23,490 --> 00:45:26,610
You're drawing. Oh, you're drawing. I
guess you're going to swap it up. Okay,
660
00:45:26,670 --> 00:45:27,448
I'm not complaining.
661
00:45:27,450 --> 00:45:30,910
I just want to point out all three girls
are in the second round.
662
00:45:31,130 --> 00:45:32,130
Hell yeah.
663
00:45:32,830 --> 00:45:34,810
I'm going to take my chip. I'm taking it
out of your hand.
664
00:45:35,310 --> 00:45:38,750
Get out of my hand. Oh, my drivers. They
have their chips.
665
00:45:39,010 --> 00:45:41,550
Where are my number ones?
666
00:45:41,950 --> 00:45:42,950
Woo!
667
00:45:43,590 --> 00:45:46,350
Giuseppe and Bobby Ducote.
668
00:45:46,890 --> 00:45:48,850
Giuseppe and Bobby Ducote.
669
00:45:49,290 --> 00:45:51,850
It's going to be Dominator and Kyle
Cannon.
670
00:45:52,250 --> 00:45:56,790
Dominated in Kyle Cannon, Rich Bruder,
and David Gates.
671
00:45:57,410 --> 00:45:58,470
All right.
672
00:45:59,690 --> 00:46:03,810
Scott, Scooter Taylor, Damon Merchant.
673
00:46:04,010 --> 00:46:05,010
All right.
674
00:46:06,170 --> 00:46:12,030
Jim Howe. Jim Howe and Caleb Morton. Jim
Howe and Caleb Morton.
675
00:46:12,430 --> 00:46:14,390
Ooh, Kai Kelly.
676
00:46:14,910 --> 00:46:18,110
And Justin Swastra.
677
00:46:19,570 --> 00:46:20,730
Oh, man.
678
00:46:21,960 --> 00:46:23,960
Callie Moves and Axeman.
679
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:29,280
I heard you say I got seven. I was like,
oh, man. Which means my final pair will
680
00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:32,340
be Robin Roberts and Lizzie Musi.
681
00:46:34,240 --> 00:46:35,640
Good luck. Be safe.
682
00:46:36,380 --> 00:46:37,420
All right, y 'all.
683
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:41,200
Go get your cars turned around and bring
them into the station lanes.
684
00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:42,900
Let's figure out who's going to move on.
685
00:46:45,460 --> 00:46:46,760
Invitational second round.
686
00:46:47,220 --> 00:46:50,300
Stephanie and that beautiful Nova going
up against Bobby Ducote.
687
00:46:50,960 --> 00:46:53,600
Winner will move on to the third round.
688
00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,820
It's a round two chip draw. I drew
Giuseppe, you know, Mr. Clean, the ball
689
00:46:56,820 --> 00:46:57,678
-headed guy.
690
00:46:57,680 --> 00:47:00,320
And we're going to try to go out there
and kick his ass, and that's the whole
691
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,540
plan. That's the whole reason we're
here. We ain't here to lose. We're here
692
00:47:02,540 --> 00:47:03,540
win.
693
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,300
Scott said we're going to sit in a
little more than we did last pass, so
694
00:47:06,300 --> 00:47:08,860
going to see what happens and hope it
works out and get our wind light on.
695
00:47:10,560 --> 00:47:11,840
We're here to do something serious.
696
00:47:14,660 --> 00:47:15,660
That's all I can say.
697
00:47:16,900 --> 00:47:17,900
Everything looked good.
698
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,300
So far looked good. Drive shot was...
699
00:47:20,740 --> 00:47:22,540
ride on on what we made on Friday night.
700
00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:27,640
We drew Bobby Ducati, and, you know,
he's got pro -charge, Tammy deal.
701
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,700
He's going to be fast. He's good on the
tree, so we're going to go up there and
702
00:47:31,700 --> 00:47:35,160
do our job, and we're going to try to
take him and send him home.
703
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:45,920
I am glad that I do have three drivers
advancing forward.
704
00:47:46,200 --> 00:47:48,740
Man, it would really suck to be one of
the teams that doesn't have anybody
705
00:47:48,740 --> 00:47:49,740
forward.
706
00:47:51,950 --> 00:47:53,830
Plan is to win. Make a clean pass.
707
00:47:54,050 --> 00:47:55,009
No mistake.
708
00:47:55,010 --> 00:47:58,470
Everybody does the same thing. And
continue to go around. That's the goal
709
00:47:58,470 --> 00:47:59,470
this weekend.
710
00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,440
We're packing a chute right now.
711
00:48:29,860 --> 00:48:31,400
No, he said they were calling for it.
712
00:48:37,460 --> 00:48:41,160
I am ready. I just got to get the car
out.
713
00:48:43,060 --> 00:48:44,060
Where's he at?
714
00:48:45,780 --> 00:48:46,780
Oh, he's back there.
715
00:48:47,700 --> 00:48:49,500
Punching them keys in.
716
00:48:51,389 --> 00:48:53,550
Dominator, we had to wait on him a
little bit. I don't know what he was
717
00:48:53,550 --> 00:48:56,270
some trouble in the pit, getting his
parachute packed, I think.
718
00:48:56,750 --> 00:48:57,790
Go, go, go, go!
719
00:48:59,470 --> 00:49:01,650
Well, they ain't giving no break this
year on time, are they?
720
00:49:03,670 --> 00:49:04,670
Hey!
721
00:49:06,490 --> 00:49:07,490
Power!
722
00:49:10,710 --> 00:49:11,710
Hey,
723
00:49:12,090 --> 00:49:15,110
you're all right. Slow down, dude. Just
put your safety belt on. Don't worry
724
00:49:15,110 --> 00:49:16,110
about it. All right, bud, you ready?
725
00:49:16,510 --> 00:49:17,510
Good?
726
00:49:18,910 --> 00:49:19,910
Love you, man.
727
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:28,080
right lane, that is going to be Kyle
Fennin. Kyle Fennin in that Camaro going
728
00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:29,340
against Dominator.
729
00:49:40,000 --> 00:49:43,580
We let him get up there, took our time,
stayed calm, stayed collected.
730
00:49:43,940 --> 00:49:47,380
You know, every round right now is
pretty nerve -wracking for me. My first
731
00:49:47,380 --> 00:49:49,260
event, so just trying to do my thing.
732
00:50:15,950 --> 00:50:18,510
I know you hear it all the time, but I
let go of the button and drove down
733
00:50:18,510 --> 00:50:23,010
through there, and I didn't see him. It
was a good, clean run, and I've got to
734
00:50:23,010 --> 00:50:24,010
rinse and repeat now.
735
00:50:25,290 --> 00:50:29,230
Okay, third pair here, Rich Bruder,
going up against David Gates.
736
00:50:30,190 --> 00:50:31,190
$40 ,000.
737
00:50:31,450 --> 00:50:34,290
He said, put it right here in my right
front pocket, please, sir.
738
00:50:34,570 --> 00:50:38,170
Second round, we've got Rich Bruder,
and, you know, they're fast. They've got
739
00:50:38,170 --> 00:50:39,490
some good equipment, a good hot rod.
740
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:42,820
We're going to go out here and he's got
to be on his game to beat us because
741
00:50:42,820 --> 00:50:46,900
we're on our game. Third pair here.
We've got Rich Bruder in the jacket.
742
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,000
Going up against David Gates over in the
right lane.
743
00:50:58,940 --> 00:51:03,260
And David Gates, left first, never
looked back.
744
00:51:04,020 --> 00:51:06,540
David Gates in that right lane. Nice
job.
745
00:51:06,900 --> 00:51:08,980
He'll move on to the third round.
746
00:51:12,040 --> 00:51:17,220
Battle of two Camaros. We got David
Merchant and Scott Scooter -Taylor.
747
00:51:17,960 --> 00:51:22,040
We raced Larry first round. He's a
veteran. We drove another veteran in
748
00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,740
Taylor. I'm coming in here to prove that
I belong.
749
00:51:25,060 --> 00:51:28,520
I'm going to come place fuller all I
can. I'm going to take these guys out
750
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:32,820
at a time and race the track and not
really worry about who's in that other
751
00:51:32,820 --> 00:51:33,820
lane.
752
00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:39,480
We got Scott still in, and so, man, I'm
going to do everything I can to help him
753
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:40,480
and keep him going.
754
00:51:42,250 --> 00:51:45,690
Second round, we drew Damon Merchant.
Praying it don't shake.
755
00:51:45,910 --> 00:51:48,910
He's getting faster and faster, and he's
making the trip.
756
00:51:49,390 --> 00:51:51,110
Round one, we did not make the trip.
757
00:51:52,930 --> 00:51:56,310
We got to go down to beat Damon. If we
don't go down, we're not going to beat
758
00:51:56,310 --> 00:51:57,310
anybody.
759
00:51:58,190 --> 00:52:01,230
Damon's been carrying us, man. He's been
really the heart of our team right now.
760
00:52:01,930 --> 00:52:04,770
Unexpectedly, you know, Damon's going to
have the motor everybody got. He's been
761
00:52:04,770 --> 00:52:06,810
coming out here overachieving, people
think.
762
00:52:08,830 --> 00:52:10,190
He made it to the grade eight.
763
00:52:10,600 --> 00:52:12,760
Gaining points by himself as well as our
team.
764
00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:42,480
This is Damon's first season running no
-prep Kings.
765
00:52:43,060 --> 00:52:49,000
But he's already proving to be a huge
asset for Team Bodie, especially after
766
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,080
taking out heavy hitter Scott Taylor.
767
00:52:51,500 --> 00:52:54,760
Damon's fast in the light, and sometimes
that can win a race.
768
00:52:56,580 --> 00:52:57,580
We left good.
769
00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,400
Car made a hell of a hit the first 500
feet, and then it started kind of
770
00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:04,100
stumbling, sputtering at the big end.
771
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:10,620
I wanted to make sure that people knew
that us getting picked in the draft and
772
00:53:10,620 --> 00:53:13,100
it being our first year wasn't no fluke.
773
00:53:13,520 --> 00:53:14,560
Good job, Dad.
774
00:53:15,700 --> 00:53:16,700
There was that.
775
00:53:18,300 --> 00:53:19,300
Damn.
776
00:53:20,220 --> 00:53:23,940
With Scott Taylor losing, that means
Mike Murillo's team is down to zero.
777
00:53:24,220 --> 00:53:27,440
They'll join teams Disco and Murder Nova
over there on the bench.
778
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:42,700
That's going to be Jim Howe. He is going
up against Kayla Morton. Kayla Morton
779
00:53:42,700 --> 00:53:43,538
in the right lane.
780
00:53:43,540 --> 00:53:44,540
Ready?
781
00:53:45,340 --> 00:53:46,400
All right, Daddy, let's go.
782
00:53:47,100 --> 00:53:48,940
Round two, I drew Jim Howe.
783
00:53:49,540 --> 00:53:51,060
We got one heavy hitter out.
784
00:53:51,380 --> 00:53:53,020
We're going to get two heavy hitters
out.
785
00:53:53,300 --> 00:53:57,180
There's lots of heavy hitters out from
the first round, and it's looking more
786
00:53:57,180 --> 00:54:00,580
and more like my day, so we got to get
through this round, and then I think
787
00:54:00,580 --> 00:54:01,580
we're home free.
788
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:03,020
Team Dave is looking okay.
789
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:04,880
Three and two, round two.
790
00:54:05,800 --> 00:54:07,020
Axeman, Kyle.
791
00:54:08,330 --> 00:54:12,550
We share data, it pays off, as you can
see, and that's why we put the team
792
00:54:12,550 --> 00:54:13,550
together that we did.
793
00:54:14,730 --> 00:54:17,930
Day's team was pretty much using the
same tuner for most of the cars.
794
00:54:18,390 --> 00:54:22,330
That is the guy that does all the
magical stuff on the keyboard and makes
795
00:54:22,330 --> 00:54:24,690
car run as fast as it possibly can.
796
00:54:24,970 --> 00:54:29,630
And if you have a tuner that has
multiple cars on the same team, you can
797
00:54:29,630 --> 00:54:31,150
data, which is critical.
798
00:54:31,530 --> 00:54:35,530
You have one car go down early, you get
data, you can use that data, put it on
799
00:54:35,530 --> 00:54:37,330
your other cars for later in the rounds.
800
00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:55,240
It's going to be Jim Howe. He is going
up against Kayla Morton. Kayla Morton in
801
00:54:55,240 --> 00:54:56,240
the right lane.
802
00:55:29,640 --> 00:55:31,960
The track was a little bit better, and I
thought, well, we don't need to leave
803
00:55:31,960 --> 00:55:33,400
anything on the table because we're
running Caleb.
804
00:55:35,860 --> 00:55:38,440
Kept creeping towards the center, and I
was like, I got it, I got it, I got it.
805
00:55:39,420 --> 00:55:40,700
And I was like, oh, I better grab a
button.
806
00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,540
I threw a little bit more at it, and it
almost cost me the race. We almost had
807
00:55:46,540 --> 00:55:47,540
it too hot.
808
00:55:48,060 --> 00:55:51,400
We stubbed our toe in Hebron. I stand by
the fact that I think we've got the
809
00:55:51,400 --> 00:55:55,440
fastest car on the property. Move on to
the next round, one round at a time.
810
00:55:56,160 --> 00:55:57,480
I'm not changing a damn thing.
811
00:56:06,250 --> 00:56:07,590
Super disappointing L there.
812
00:56:07,830 --> 00:56:13,270
I thought we would get that one, but it
just wasn't our day, and that's okay.
813
00:56:13,390 --> 00:56:15,850
Last weekend was, and there are going to
be a lot of weekends that are.
814
00:56:16,190 --> 00:56:18,510
It's all good. I mean, they didn't make
a bad pass.
815
00:56:18,830 --> 00:56:21,150
That was just a rough one. Rough L for
sure.
816
00:56:22,490 --> 00:56:23,490
Okay.
817
00:56:24,130 --> 00:56:26,290
And moving on. I thought we had that
one, didn't you?
818
00:56:35,530 --> 00:56:36,328
Who, Justin?
819
00:56:36,330 --> 00:56:39,250
His car ain't went straight in the last
two races.
820
00:56:39,730 --> 00:56:40,990
The last one wasn't straight?
821
00:56:41,330 --> 00:56:45,270
No, he was tugging the wall in the right
lane. He never lifted, but he was all
822
00:56:45,270 --> 00:56:46,270
over the wall.
823
00:56:47,110 --> 00:56:52,830
Round two, I end up drawing Justin
Swanstrom. He's brilliant. So anytime
824
00:56:52,830 --> 00:56:55,530
draw him, you know he's going to be
deadly on the tree. You know his car's
825
00:56:55,530 --> 00:56:56,209
to be fast.
826
00:56:56,210 --> 00:56:57,650
You know you've got to have your ass
together.
827
00:56:57,890 --> 00:57:01,850
I'm just going to keep turning the car
for the racetrack, and he better beat me
828
00:57:01,850 --> 00:57:03,130
to the finish line because we're going
to it.
829
00:57:18,669 --> 00:57:22,130
This track's one of the smoothest tracks
in the country, but it's hot today,
830
00:57:22,310 --> 00:57:26,170
it's gummy, you know, the rubber's
peeling up, so you better have the right
831
00:57:26,170 --> 00:57:29,110
tuner. You better have a hold of that
steering wheel and know what to do with
832
00:57:29,110 --> 00:57:31,950
it. If the car's going to get loose,
it's going to get sketchy, and then the
833
00:57:31,950 --> 00:57:33,610
best driver and tuner win on a day like
this.
834
00:58:01,779 --> 00:58:03,180
Well, you're on, buddy. You're on, man.
835
00:58:03,520 --> 00:58:04,520
Come on, buddy.
836
00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:12,360
Callie Mills going up against Larry
Roach, known as Axeman.
837
00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:14,740
We need them team points.
838
00:58:14,940 --> 00:58:15,799
Yeah, we need them.
839
00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:16,800
Kyle's going.
840
00:58:16,900 --> 00:58:17,940
I got the first one.
841
00:58:18,680 --> 00:58:20,180
I got Callie Mills round two.
842
00:58:20,680 --> 00:58:22,000
That hot rod is flying.
843
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:23,780
I don't know about this situation.
844
00:58:24,020 --> 00:58:26,080
We're going to wick this thing up and
give her hell.
845
00:58:30,800 --> 00:58:34,140
In round two, we drew Axeman. I've raced
him a few times before.
846
00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:38,040
I think he beat me, but today we're
doling Axeman's axe.
847
00:59:03,470 --> 00:59:05,450
move on to the next round. Great grab
race.
848
00:59:07,630 --> 00:59:08,630
Did you get him?
849
00:59:09,950 --> 00:59:11,030
Didn't have enough in it.
850
00:59:11,990 --> 00:59:14,970
Me and Callie took a loss, so now it's
only Jim Howland there.
851
00:59:15,190 --> 00:59:18,890
Hopefully Jim can go off and win this
deal and try to make up some points for
852
00:59:18,890 --> 00:59:22,410
to be able to keep going forward, to
keep working on our program, keep making
853
00:59:22,410 --> 00:59:25,690
passes, try to get a little bit more
consistent, and see if we can go ahead
854
00:59:25,690 --> 00:59:27,250
try to pull off a win later on in the
season.
855
00:59:27,990 --> 00:59:28,990
Damn it, bud.
856
00:59:29,990 --> 00:59:31,490
I forget I'm even racing anybody.
857
00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:33,960
This damn thing's fun to ride, man.
858
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:38,160
Ackman, he's always tough, you know.
He's got a great car.
859
00:59:38,460 --> 00:59:41,780
I mean, I thought me and him were pretty
even. Looks like they got me a little
860
00:59:41,780 --> 00:59:43,900
bit on the tree, but we tried our best.
861
00:59:44,820 --> 00:59:45,678
That was close.
862
00:59:45,680 --> 00:59:47,240
I was like, go!
863
00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:50,820
I didn't hear you, I didn't hear you,
and then when I hit the chute, he rolled
864
00:59:50,820 --> 00:59:53,020
up inside me and said, dang, that must
have been close. Yeah, it was close.
865
00:59:53,020 --> 00:59:56,020
was real close. I know, I was like, it
hiked the front wheels up. I was like,
866
00:59:56,080 --> 00:59:58,400
go! I thought it was going to get it,
but... Oh, yeah.
867
01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,020
I feel great, but I feel good.
868
01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:07,280
I'm feeling great.
869
01:00:09,040 --> 01:00:10,740
Round two, I draw Lizzie Musi.
870
01:00:10,940 --> 01:00:15,400
She is capable of winning any event she
goes to. They've got a great program, so
871
01:00:15,400 --> 01:00:16,660
this will be a real challenge.
872
01:00:18,300 --> 01:00:19,300
Yeah.
873
01:00:19,980 --> 01:00:20,980
Fastest guy.
874
01:00:21,380 --> 01:00:22,460
Good? Yeah.
875
01:00:24,460 --> 01:00:29,260
We're still racing in the heat of the
day, so we ain't going to make our
876
01:00:29,260 --> 01:00:30,860
pass, but we're going to make a fast
pass here.
877
01:00:39,080 --> 01:00:44,580
This will be the last and final pair
here in this second round of
878
01:00:45,200 --> 01:00:48,580
And it's going to be a good one right
here, folks. Over in the left lane, that
879
01:00:48,580 --> 01:00:52,240
is going to be Robin Roberts. Robin
Roberts in the left lane going up
880
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:54,140
Lindsey Mucey in the right.
881
01:00:55,340 --> 01:01:00,280
Let's see who the final car will be to
go to the third round of Invitational
882
01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:01,280
class.
883
01:01:36,470 --> 01:01:39,070
unfortunately, Kai Kelly's team has
three players advancing.
884
01:01:39,330 --> 01:01:42,890
That's not great for us. That's three
guys he has in the top eight to advance
885
01:01:42,890 --> 01:01:43,828
and accumulate points.
886
01:01:43,830 --> 01:01:46,350
Right now, he's going to be tough to get
in front of, probably almost
887
01:01:46,350 --> 01:01:50,530
impossible, unless all three of his guys
drop out and Giuseppe wins the event.
888
01:01:51,070 --> 01:01:55,250
All right, that will do it for the
second round of the Invitational Class.
889
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:06,040
Round three is set to kick off, and five
teams will have racers left in.
890
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,340
We're about to find out who will be the
last one standing.
891
01:02:33,900 --> 01:02:37,320
All of our drivers are here on the
starting line for our third round
892
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:42,660
invitational drivers meeting. We are
down to eight racers. These eight racers
893
01:02:42,660 --> 01:02:48,600
will represent the grade eight next week
because they are in the top eight of
894
01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:51,300
points. Nice job, y 'all.
Congratulations.
895
01:02:51,540 --> 01:02:55,680
Someone still needs to win this $40 ,000
today, right? And it's going to be one
896
01:02:55,680 --> 01:02:56,940
of you eight.
897
01:02:57,200 --> 01:03:01,680
So let's go ahead and draw chips and see
who is paired up with who.
898
01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:05,380
So going into the next round, I got
three people moving on. That means we're
899
01:03:05,380 --> 01:03:07,640
racking up 30 points every time we draw
the chips.
900
01:03:08,020 --> 01:03:11,460
So hard work pays off. You ain't got to
have money. You ain't got to have the
901
01:03:11,460 --> 01:03:13,740
best equipment. You just got to have no
quit, and it's going to show.
902
01:03:14,240 --> 01:03:19,020
Okie dokie. All my rakers have their
chips. Where are my number ones?
903
01:03:19,740 --> 01:03:22,200
Kyle Cannon and Damon Merchant.
904
01:03:22,540 --> 01:03:28,020
All right. And number twos, Giuseppe and
Kai Kelly.
905
01:03:28,910 --> 01:03:31,190
Man, I hate this, but I'm going to have
to put that old beer up on you.
906
01:03:33,010 --> 01:03:34,730
Let's see. We'll find out.
907
01:03:35,150 --> 01:03:36,230
Number three.
908
01:03:37,710 --> 01:03:44,270
That will be Jim Howe and Batman Larry
Roach, which means Lizzie has once again
909
01:03:44,270 --> 01:03:48,810
drawn her teammate, as it will be David
Gates and Lizzie Eason.
910
01:03:49,150 --> 01:03:52,670
I can't do it no more. I don't know what
to do with my life.
911
01:03:52,970 --> 01:03:55,670
All right, drivers, you know who you're
racing. You know what you've got to do.
912
01:03:55,690 --> 01:03:56,690
Go back to the pit.
913
01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,580
Get your cars turned around and bring
them into staging lanes.
914
01:03:59,940 --> 01:04:01,260
Let's get back to racing.
915
01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:10,180
Something's just not making it happy.
916
01:04:10,380 --> 01:04:15,180
It's trying to get probably too much
timing, too much heat in the top end of
917
01:04:15,200 --> 01:04:16,480
and that's why it's doing it in the top
end.
918
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:18,980
So round three, I drew Kyle Canyon.
919
01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:20,500
I've seen him run.
920
01:04:20,780 --> 01:04:22,080
I know his car is fast.
921
01:04:22,660 --> 01:04:25,020
We've been chasing a little issue over
here.
922
01:04:25,500 --> 01:04:28,820
It had some pops on the big end, and it
was slowing the car down drastically.
923
01:04:29,180 --> 01:04:31,200
Maybe we're getting too greedy with it.
I don't know.
924
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:36,640
Yeah. We're just going to have to kind
of go off data from yesterday, and
925
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:38,260
hopefully it runs as good as it did
yesterday.
926
01:04:41,320 --> 01:04:43,020
Stay settled down and stay in the zone.
927
01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:44,420
We drew Damon Merchant.
928
01:04:44,700 --> 01:04:45,700
His car's fast.
929
01:04:46,500 --> 01:04:50,820
I think it's a good pick for us. My car
is really doing its job right now.
930
01:04:57,130 --> 01:05:00,090
Get up there, let go of the button, and
try to collect another wind line.
931
01:05:05,190 --> 01:05:08,150
My man Damon carrying us. He put this on
his back.
932
01:05:08,490 --> 01:05:09,610
We got one in still.
933
01:05:10,950 --> 01:05:12,470
So we're the only one left for our team.
934
01:05:12,710 --> 01:05:15,190
It's very important that we accumulate
for these team points.
935
01:05:15,630 --> 01:05:17,750
And, you know, I don't want to let my
team down.
936
01:05:18,230 --> 01:05:20,550
And I want to show these people that
we're here to stay.
937
01:05:35,990 --> 01:05:40,590
And Damon Merchant's going to get the
win. Kyle Cannon has something break on
938
01:05:40,590 --> 01:05:41,488
the front of the car.
939
01:05:41,490 --> 01:05:42,590
What the heck is that?
940
01:05:46,130 --> 01:05:48,890
That sucks. I was looking for him to win
it. Absolutely.
941
01:05:49,830 --> 01:05:53,130
Kyle had catch traffic failure. Nothing
you can do about it. It can happen to
942
01:05:53,130 --> 01:05:57,450
anybody. But all in all, I got a pretty
solid team, and I'm looking to win the
943
01:05:57,450 --> 01:05:58,450
championship with them.
944
01:06:00,790 --> 01:06:02,250
I'm fine. I don't know what happened.
945
01:06:02,610 --> 01:06:04,110
Your front wheel is doing like that.
946
01:06:04,330 --> 01:06:07,910
When I let go of the button, this front
tire was carrying up in the air.
947
01:06:09,410 --> 01:06:12,570
It was like an animal when it set that
front tire down. Felt like the whole car
948
01:06:12,570 --> 01:06:13,570
was falling apart.
949
01:06:13,690 --> 01:06:16,550
Ripped the steering wheel out of my
hands, and then I was trying to steer
950
01:06:16,550 --> 01:06:17,550
this shaft.
951
01:06:18,690 --> 01:06:22,130
That went through the glove? Yeah, I'm
guessing my gloves probably tore all up.
952
01:06:22,310 --> 01:06:26,090
That was just a little more excitement
than I wanted to end the weekend.
953
01:06:27,370 --> 01:06:29,590
The front end broke, and it just went
crazy.
954
01:06:30,650 --> 01:06:31,650
I lost everything.
955
01:06:32,190 --> 01:06:33,550
We'll patch this thing up.
956
01:06:34,130 --> 01:06:39,210
make sure that doesn't happen again, and
we'll go to Minnesota. We're in the
957
01:06:39,210 --> 01:06:41,330
grade 8, and we'll try to make a killing
there.
958
01:06:49,230 --> 01:06:52,990
How are you feeling? You know, it looks
good. The last pass was good.
959
01:06:53,190 --> 01:06:56,050
It was good. It was good. The track's
still greasy.
960
01:06:56,270 --> 01:07:00,590
I don't know when we run here. If the
sun goes down, it changes a bunch.
961
01:07:00,910 --> 01:07:01,910
So right now.
962
01:07:01,950 --> 01:07:03,210
I'm the last guy on Team Ryan.
963
01:07:03,590 --> 01:07:04,810
Now we drew Kai Kelly.
964
01:07:05,430 --> 01:07:08,330
I'm debating right now, last minute
changes, if we're going to put a little
965
01:07:08,330 --> 01:07:11,050
more in it or just leave it and let him
try to beat us.
966
01:07:11,310 --> 01:07:15,850
He's quick on the 60, right? I can
probably pick this up on the 60, but you
967
01:07:15,850 --> 01:07:17,070
with that? Yeah, I'm good. Okay.
968
01:07:17,350 --> 01:07:18,249
All right.
969
01:07:18,250 --> 01:07:19,250
Let's do it, baby.
970
01:07:20,670 --> 01:07:23,770
Round three, I went up there and I drew
Giuseppe.
971
01:07:24,190 --> 01:07:26,930
All day we've been watching this car.
It's been hauling ass, so he's
972
01:07:26,930 --> 01:07:29,870
not an easy draw, but we're going to
make sure that we're going to go down
973
01:07:29,870 --> 01:07:33,420
racetrack. And we're going to try to be
consistent and without shaking at all.
974
01:07:33,480 --> 01:07:35,080
And I think that'll be fast enough to
outrun him.
975
01:07:37,000 --> 01:07:40,780
The sun is starting to go down here in
Virginia, but it's still warm. And from
976
01:07:40,780 --> 01:07:45,300
what I saw in round two, this track is
still greasy and gooey.
977
01:07:45,620 --> 01:07:50,020
This is always a tough time to race
because the track can change quickly
978
01:07:50,020 --> 01:07:52,600
one pass to the next as it cools down.
979
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:24,220
If he was right beside me, he actually
pulled out in front of me. Maybe the 3
980
01:08:24,220 --> 01:08:27,580
.30, the wheels come up on my car, and I
went to pull it off from him.
981
01:08:27,859 --> 01:08:30,100
Barely beat him on the big end. I bet it
wasn't even an offender.
982
01:08:31,020 --> 01:08:34,340
That's a win. We'll take it. It was a
hard -earned win because he gave us all
983
01:08:34,340 --> 01:08:35,340
wanted.
984
01:08:35,399 --> 01:08:36,399
Something dropped.
985
01:08:36,899 --> 01:08:39,979
Something dropped out on me. I don't
know what happened. It just cut out
986
01:08:39,979 --> 01:08:40,979
at the finish line.
987
01:08:41,020 --> 01:08:42,399
Now we're going through the final four.
988
01:08:42,620 --> 01:08:46,600
So last night we were in the finals of
the grade eight. Now we're in the final
989
01:08:46,600 --> 01:08:50,020
four. So I really feel like our team as
a whole is doing great.
990
01:08:57,480 --> 01:08:58,339
Who'd you get?
991
01:08:58,340 --> 01:08:59,059
X -Man.
992
01:08:59,060 --> 01:09:02,899
I tell you, this race is going to be
difficult for him because of the sun in
993
01:09:02,899 --> 01:09:05,960
that lane. So right now, this is the
time to be in the left lane. Yep.
994
01:09:06,460 --> 01:09:08,439
We're just going to go up there and do
our thing. I ain't changing nothing.
995
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:09,600
That's what happened. Get it.
996
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:10,960
Good luck. All right.
997
01:09:11,859 --> 01:09:13,040
We're here to race a hot rod.
998
01:09:13,740 --> 01:09:14,740
Yeah.
999
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:16,080
That's our goal.
1000
01:09:16,500 --> 01:09:18,020
So I go up to draw in third round.
1001
01:09:18,260 --> 01:09:22,240
I seen some bears walking up, dropping a
chip. I looked at my hand. I knew I had
1002
01:09:22,240 --> 01:09:23,840
Jim Howe. Jim Howe's blind.
1003
01:09:24,080 --> 01:09:26,420
So we got to get our act together, turn
this hot rod up.
1004
01:09:26,760 --> 01:09:28,040
And make it fast. Get around it.
1005
01:09:45,340 --> 01:09:46,899
Jim Howe going to get there first.
1006
01:09:47,420 --> 01:09:48,420
Late.
1007
01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:51,920
A little late. Jim Howe.
1008
01:09:52,390 --> 01:09:55,710
The man of the hour took out, like,
almost my whole team.
1009
01:09:56,010 --> 01:09:58,810
Hats off to him. His car is hauling ass.
1010
01:09:59,450 --> 01:10:00,990
Very well worked.
1011
01:10:02,990 --> 01:10:09,210
Next pair in the battle of the
teammates, David Gates. He will be going
1012
01:10:09,210 --> 01:10:11,110
against Miss Lizzie Amuse.
1013
01:10:14,650 --> 01:10:17,730
Third round chip draw. I drew David
Gates.
1014
01:10:18,450 --> 01:10:19,450
Another teammate.
1015
01:10:20,230 --> 01:10:21,230
No matter what.
1016
01:10:21,800 --> 01:10:23,320
points going to the team again.
1017
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:25,740
So that's good. That's a good thing.
1018
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,700
His car has been working really good. So
he's definitely not one to take
1019
01:10:29,700 --> 01:10:33,200
lightly. But I just beat Robin Roberts.
So we got a good handle on the car.
1020
01:10:33,420 --> 01:10:35,080
So I feel confident going into this
round.
1021
01:10:35,460 --> 01:10:37,000
Whoever's in the other lane, I'm going
to try to.
1022
01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:03,240
Nice drag race between teammates, but
Lizzie turns on the wind light.
1023
01:11:08,420 --> 01:11:12,760
She tattooed his ass on the light. It
went right there. Everybody has won
1024
01:11:12,760 --> 01:11:14,000
last three races right here.
1025
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:20,000
All right, here we go.
1026
01:11:20,400 --> 01:11:23,260
Invitational drivers meeting. This is
for the semifinals.
1027
01:11:23,500 --> 01:11:27,460
Look, we started with 32 racers. We are
down to four.
1028
01:11:27,760 --> 01:11:28,940
Let's go ahead and draw chips.
1029
01:11:33,549 --> 01:11:36,290
All right, where are my number ones?
1030
01:11:37,030 --> 01:11:43,630
It's going to be Jim Howe and Kai Kelly.
Jim Howe, Kai Kelly. That means
1031
01:11:43,630 --> 01:11:49,270
the second pair will be Damon Merchant
and Lizzie Musial.
1032
01:11:49,970 --> 01:11:52,710
Damon Merchant and Lizzie Musial will be
the second pair.
1033
01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:56,260
Go back to the pitch. Get your cars
turned around. Bring them in the staging
1034
01:11:56,260 --> 01:11:59,000
lanes, all right? You got $40 ,000 to
give away. Let's go.
1035
01:12:01,820 --> 01:12:05,580
So this first pair here in the
Invitational Semi -Final is going to be
1036
01:12:05,580 --> 01:12:07,700
one. We've got Jim Howe and Ty Kelly.
1037
01:12:08,980 --> 01:12:09,980
Who's your draw?
1038
01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:11,500
I got Jim Howe first.
1039
01:12:12,440 --> 01:12:13,440
Who's losing it?
1040
01:12:13,980 --> 01:12:14,980
Jamie Mercer.
1041
01:12:15,700 --> 01:12:17,760
You're going to lose the end of the
final?
1042
01:12:18,140 --> 01:12:19,320
Yeah, that's what we plan to do.
1043
01:12:19,520 --> 01:12:22,000
So we're down to four cars. Went up to
round four.
1044
01:12:22,350 --> 01:12:25,650
Reaching the bucket, I drew Jim Howe.
Everybody knows he's been running
1045
01:12:25,650 --> 01:12:26,750
for like 47 years.
1046
01:12:27,030 --> 01:12:29,890
You know, we just started doing this,
but I feel like we're right there with
1047
01:12:29,890 --> 01:12:32,690
him, and it's my time. I'm ready to
shine. I'm ready to show him what we
1048
01:12:34,170 --> 01:12:39,590
I'll run it just like it is.
1049
01:12:39,870 --> 01:12:43,990
You know, me and Kai have been rivals
for years, but I'd love to see Lizzie
1050
01:12:43,990 --> 01:12:44,990
I in the final today.
1051
01:12:45,490 --> 01:12:46,490
That would be a perfect world.
1052
01:12:47,950 --> 01:12:48,950
You too,
1053
01:12:49,330 --> 01:12:50,330
bro. Be safe. You too.
1054
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:55,780
Last time I lined up beside Jim, I had
my nitrous guard, and he took me out of
1055
01:12:55,780 --> 01:12:59,720
the points race and the championship
race in Ennis, Texas. So there for a
1056
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:00,720
while, he's had my number.
1057
01:13:03,700 --> 01:13:07,840
The sun has officially set, and it's
just in time for the semifinals.
1058
01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:13,320
I walked the track a minute ago, and
it's really starting to tighten up,
1059
01:13:13,320 --> 01:13:18,100
it's cooling down, it's not greasy
anymore, and these racers are really
1060
01:13:18,100 --> 01:13:19,100
be able to put down.
1061
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:20,360
some real power.
1062
01:13:38,160 --> 01:13:41,140
And Kai Kelly will take the win.
1063
01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:46,540
Left first and never look back. Kai
Kelly dropping it down over there.
1064
01:13:49,179 --> 01:13:52,680
He was out on me, and I was starting to
come around like I was gaining on him.
1065
01:13:53,300 --> 01:13:56,740
Well, I've got an override button that
I'm prepared to burn the motor up with
1066
01:13:56,740 --> 01:13:57,539
I grab it.
1067
01:13:57,540 --> 01:14:00,980
And I retch over there to grab the
button, and when I did, I hit the CO2
1068
01:14:00,980 --> 01:14:04,680
on the parachute, got the chute out
early. So the chute come out, jerked the
1069
01:14:04,680 --> 01:14:07,980
backwards. I don't know that we could
have came around him anyway, but I was
1070
01:14:07,980 --> 01:14:09,960
going to melt the pistons out of it if
that's what it took to get there.
1071
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:14,360
That's huge, man.
1072
01:14:15,860 --> 01:14:18,920
Jim Howe's car is always flying. He's
one of the fastest cars out here.
1073
01:14:19,160 --> 01:14:22,400
To run like that beside him with a brand
new car, it don't get no better than
1074
01:14:22,400 --> 01:14:25,620
that. Good job, dude. You earned it. You
earned it. I'm proud of you, man.
1075
01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:30,400
I look at that as one of the baddest
cars here, man. So, exciting.
1076
01:14:36,900 --> 01:14:38,120
Hey, what about Dominator?
1077
01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:39,560
Huh?
1078
01:14:39,680 --> 01:14:44,420
Made a good choice. I mean, I hate it
for Finney, and I think maybe...
1079
01:14:44,640 --> 01:14:48,020
just to put the pressure on Finney to
keep on getting it figured out. Because
1080
01:14:48,020 --> 01:14:52,540
know Finney can do it. I know he can. We
both know he can. Maybe, you know what
1081
01:14:52,540 --> 01:14:54,480
I mean. A little pressure. Yeah, there's
got to be some pressure on him.
1082
01:14:54,880 --> 01:15:00,400
And it is, you know, and I think he's
with us with it. I don't think he's mad.
1083
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:05,780
can tell he's down, but he's more of a
fit with himself and the situation.
1084
01:15:06,040 --> 01:15:10,040
And I don't think he's mad at me in
particular. I don't think so.
1085
01:15:10,590 --> 01:15:13,310
He's just mad at me. You told him it was
my idea.
1086
01:15:14,270 --> 01:15:19,290
We are down to three drivers still
standing.
1087
01:15:19,770 --> 01:15:23,290
Kai has already punched his ticket to
the finals. And coming up next is our
1088
01:15:23,290 --> 01:15:27,110
second race of the semifinals as Lizzie
Musi goes up against Damon Merchant.
1089
01:15:30,890 --> 01:15:34,570
All right, so how short did we come up
last time? A fender to her?
1090
01:15:35,830 --> 01:15:37,290
We drew Lizzie.
1091
01:15:38,510 --> 01:15:39,570
Raced her last week.
1092
01:15:43,370 --> 01:15:45,650
I didn't go our way, so it's time for a
little redemption.
1093
01:15:46,050 --> 01:15:51,150
If I can get my job done on the tree,
like, I don't see her coming around at
1094
01:15:51,150 --> 01:15:51,769
this time.
1095
01:15:51,770 --> 01:15:54,650
We know she's going to run hard on the
top end, so I'm going to have to get out
1096
01:15:54,650 --> 01:15:58,110
on her and, you know, try to get a lead
on her where I can stay out on her.
1097
01:15:58,430 --> 01:16:01,010
I feel like we've got it in the chamber.
We've just got to let it go.
1098
01:16:01,250 --> 01:16:02,250
It should be good.
1099
01:16:02,410 --> 01:16:05,690
That'll probably ruin Kai and Lizzie's
little hope of going to the finals
1100
01:16:05,690 --> 01:16:06,690
together.
1101
01:16:07,030 --> 01:16:08,230
The track come around now.
1102
01:16:08,470 --> 01:16:11,390
Oh, now it's good, yeah. Now you've got
a damn race track. You do what you want
1103
01:16:11,390 --> 01:16:12,390
now. Yeah.
1104
01:16:14,650 --> 01:16:18,670
We're in it to win it. In it to win it.
I got a cheer team right here.
1105
01:16:18,950 --> 01:16:22,810
We just tested. We tested here about a
month ago. So we got some data under our
1106
01:16:22,810 --> 01:16:23,749
belt with this track.
1107
01:16:23,750 --> 01:16:25,410
Feel really confident about that.
1108
01:16:25,690 --> 01:16:27,450
Yeah. Are we going to get our teammate
or?
1109
01:16:27,690 --> 01:16:29,090
Nope. Not this time.
1110
01:16:29,370 --> 01:16:30,390
Who are we going to get?
1111
01:16:30,670 --> 01:16:33,170
The white car next to us. Hey, good
luck. Be safe.
1112
01:16:33,530 --> 01:16:36,890
Fourth round trip draw. I drew Damon
Merchant.
1113
01:16:37,110 --> 01:16:39,650
I raced him in Ohio and defeated him.
1114
01:16:40,090 --> 01:16:41,630
So he's not going to take me lightly.
1115
01:17:29,450 --> 01:17:33,290
Damon is just dead eye on that tree,
man. He puts his eye on that tree like
1116
01:17:33,290 --> 01:17:34,290
a flashlight.
1117
01:17:34,370 --> 01:17:37,370
And he goes out there, and he hit that
thing, and you got to outrun him. He's
1118
01:17:37,370 --> 01:17:38,370
fast.
1119
01:17:39,650 --> 01:17:45,390
I feel like he left a little bit ahead
of me, but he's 60 -footed, so freaking
1120
01:17:45,390 --> 01:17:46,390
hard.
1121
01:17:47,030 --> 01:17:52,070
I haven't had a car do that yet on me,
and then he almost had about a car out
1122
01:17:52,070 --> 01:17:56,510
me. And then at the end, I started
driving right around him, but it was too
1123
01:17:56,510 --> 01:17:57,510
late.
1124
01:18:06,430 --> 01:18:09,310
From Ohio to here, we got that
redemption we were looking for.
1125
01:18:09,590 --> 01:18:13,410
I mean, I owed her one. She, you know,
knocked us out, what, first round last
1126
01:18:13,410 --> 01:18:17,010
week. We got a ton of fans here, and it
was time to take her out. We're sneaking
1127
01:18:17,010 --> 01:18:19,050
up on it, but yeah, we're about to be on
that ass.
1128
01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:37,000
Deal, man. And, hey, even if you run her
up, I mean, damn.
1129
01:18:37,220 --> 01:18:41,700
I know. You're in the finals. I said
that in the last round. Hey, man, Ryan
1130
01:18:41,700 --> 01:18:43,120
Martinson, raise your way in.
1131
01:18:44,320 --> 01:18:47,360
Yeah, me, me, Sean, Dave, Ryan.
1132
01:18:48,400 --> 01:18:49,400
What the?
1133
01:18:49,580 --> 01:18:51,220
So now we've got Kai in the finals.
1134
01:18:51,480 --> 01:18:54,700
These people push you to be faster and
faster and faster, and that's exactly
1135
01:18:54,700 --> 01:18:55,700
what we've been doing.
1136
01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:56,820
We've been doing our homework.
1137
01:18:57,060 --> 01:18:58,060
We've been pushing.
1138
01:18:58,470 --> 01:19:00,090
I've been putting all my money into this
car.
1139
01:19:00,370 --> 01:19:04,370
I mean, it's just one thing after
another, but it's for that competitive
1140
01:19:06,290 --> 01:19:08,670
I don't know. He's going to let me know.
1141
01:19:09,010 --> 01:19:12,330
They're both pretty good, right?
1142
01:19:14,410 --> 01:19:15,610
He's good on the lot, though.
1143
01:19:16,110 --> 01:19:17,710
He left Lizzie sitting here.
1144
01:19:19,030 --> 01:19:21,890
This is it. Battle through 32 cars, and
it's down to two.
1145
01:19:22,150 --> 01:19:23,150
Know what lane you want?
1146
01:19:24,090 --> 01:19:25,090
Right?
1147
01:19:25,990 --> 01:19:26,969
Give it up.
1148
01:19:26,970 --> 01:19:27,970
You too, man.
1149
01:19:28,510 --> 01:19:30,830
If I can win this race right here, it's
a three -peat in Virginia.
1150
01:19:31,050 --> 01:19:34,550
It's badass, so I'll just wait and see
what happens, because here it goes.
1151
01:20:41,450 --> 01:20:43,210
When the car died, it was almost sheer
panic.
1152
01:20:46,270 --> 01:20:48,930
I seen the RPM dropping. I tried to pass
the gas.
1153
01:20:51,410 --> 01:20:55,330
You know, if I had another second, I
think we could have got on the brake and
1154
01:20:55,330 --> 01:20:58,010
gave him a race, but it just didn't work
out for me.
1155
01:20:58,390 --> 01:21:01,570
It was fair. You got a good car. We made
it all the way to the finals. We got
1156
01:21:01,570 --> 01:21:02,369
the points.
1157
01:21:02,370 --> 01:21:03,370
You did great.
1158
01:21:03,390 --> 01:21:04,390
You're a hot rod.
1159
01:21:04,550 --> 01:21:06,370
Thank you for carrying it, sir.
1160
01:21:16,140 --> 01:21:17,140
The three -peat.
1161
01:21:17,240 --> 01:21:19,240
Something about this track, I got really
good luck.
1162
01:21:20,020 --> 01:21:22,980
I mean, it's almost like I need to just
buy me a house over here. If my luck's
1163
01:21:22,980 --> 01:21:25,700
like that in Virginia all the time, I'll
be like a millionaire in no time.
1164
01:21:26,540 --> 01:21:33,400
Well, I'm standing here with Virginia
Motorsport Park champ, Kai Kelly.
1165
01:21:37,640 --> 01:21:42,500
Hey, man. You have won Virginia
Motorsports Park race the last three
1166
01:21:42,500 --> 01:21:44,020
row. I'd say this is your track.
1167
01:21:44,510 --> 01:21:47,670
Yeah, Virginia, I love y 'all, and I'm
looking for a rental house over here.
1168
01:21:48,010 --> 01:21:50,170
I've been chasing after you for a long
time.
1169
01:21:50,470 --> 01:21:53,590
I always get second, but now I got you.
1170
01:21:53,870 --> 01:21:55,210
We're not turning back no more.
1171
01:21:56,350 --> 01:21:58,410
I'll catch you next time. What happened,
man?
1172
01:21:58,650 --> 01:22:01,870
I thought you were counting me out.
1173
01:22:02,510 --> 01:22:09,350
We ain't even started to find what this
car can do.
1174
01:22:09,470 --> 01:22:11,710
So it's a badass hot rod, and I love it.
1175
01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:14,180
Now I'm going to get him to take a
picture with me.
1176
01:22:16,460 --> 01:22:19,500
There you have it. That is our first
points race of the season.
1177
01:22:19,900 --> 01:22:23,720
And it is Team Kai Kelly who is leading
the pack with 140 points.
1178
01:22:24,060 --> 01:22:28,300
It's a pretty big lead over Team Daddy
Dave and Bodie who are tied for second.
1179
01:22:29,160 --> 01:22:33,620
But there's a ton of points left up for
grabs as these teams chase that $200
1180
01:22:33,620 --> 01:22:34,800
,000 championship.
1181
01:22:39,400 --> 01:22:40,400
Next week.
1182
01:22:41,390 --> 01:22:45,230
We're heading to the second points race
of the year. Brandon International
1183
01:22:45,230 --> 01:22:47,250
Raceway. How are you doing today?
1184
01:22:48,610 --> 01:22:51,590
I've got to race my way in here. It's
the first time for me to do it in six
1185
01:22:51,590 --> 01:22:56,090
seasons. Brian Martin has to win this
race if he wants to be in the main event
1186
01:22:56,090 --> 01:22:57,090
tomorrow.
1187
01:22:59,190 --> 01:23:01,290
Team Ty Kelly is leading the pack.
1188
01:23:01,530 --> 01:23:02,530
We're going to have to pull out all
stops.
1189
01:23:02,830 --> 01:23:04,930
There are cars out there that can outrun
Ty. But.
1190
01:23:05,240 --> 01:23:09,260
They've got seven more teams ready to
put them on the trail. If we play the
1191
01:23:09,260 --> 01:23:12,500
cards right and we can all go around, I
think we can come up and possibly take
1192
01:23:12,500 --> 01:23:17,500
that first place point. And they'll stop
at nothing to get those wins.
1193
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:19,800
We'll give you everything I got. All
right.
