Beta Bear, how you doing today?

Last week on No Prep Team.

Heading into the Invitational, Team Kai
Kelly was in first place with only a 20

-point lead over Team Daddy Dave. Who
was in second?

So Dave Comstock, looks like the car
died after the burnout.

Unfortunately for Dave, his team had a
string of bad luck.

Both he and Axeman had car problems. It
could be any of that. It's like a ghost

tent. It could be something major.

Yeah, we're supposed to be on the
starting line now.

While Team Kai dominated the entire
event.

He's having a great time.

He is having a great time. I'm having
the most fun I've ever had in my life.

With three of his drivers making it to
the semis.

And Kai winning the $40 ,000 invitation.

That gave Kai's team the strongest lead
in points they've had all year long.

Here we go!

210 in the afternoon.

209. Wow. All right. In like 30 seconds.

All right. I'll get ready, man.

All right.

Are you going to win?

Yeah. Why?

Because that's what we do.

Las Vegas, how y 'all doing today?

As you know, this class is a team class.

It pays $40 ,000 to win.

These drivers are all part of eight
different teams trying to win that

Yeah.

I'm excited to see the races. I've never
seen them live before, so I'm so

excited to see that. Ryan Martin is my
favorite. He's the fastest man on the

planet. Now, Lizzie's my favorite.

Ty Kelly, Daddy Dave.

The only one I wanted to see win was
Pipey Murder Nova.

He hasn't been up in the top for a
while.

Had a rough season, but I hope you can
get up there.

I agree.

Go Seattle! Go Seattle!

We are here in Las Vegas. It is the
first time ever we've been to this

and we're getting ready for the first
round.

Any weekend in Vegas is a good weekend,
plus coming off of Colorado, where we're

at high altitude.

We're a little closer to sea level here,
but still between 2 ,000 and 3 ,000

feet. These cars are going to make a
little more power than on the side of

mountain, but that doesn't mean tuning
will be easy.

Kai's team has a solid lead right now
with 790 points. But, as we all know,

anything can happen in Vegas.

Hey, watch that trophy right there, man.
Hey, watch that trophy I let you win

last week? Yeah. Oh, man.

Hey, congrats later. You don't have to
rush your way in. Yeah.

I got lucky.

Yeah. No, you was good last week. I got
lucky, brother. I got a good team. And

I'm on the best team here.

Damn right.

I can see how Ron Martin's felt for the
past three or four years.

In the number one spot, like we are,
there's only one way to go, and that's

down. The only time it's fun to be
number one is at the end of the season

they're handing you that trophy and that
$200 ,000 check.

So we're just going to keep grinding,
race hard all the way to the last race,

and hopefully we fill the number one
spot.

Listen, we all go two rounds today,
we're back in the lead.

Team Daddy Dave did not have the best
event last weekend in Colorado.

But they have a lot of fast racers, and
they're always a threat to make a

comeback. Kai, he's got a horseshoe up
his ass right now. His team does really

good. But just like every team out here,
up and down, peaks and valleys. Like,

they're at the peak right now. They're
rounding up.

Things are going to start breaking.
Things are going to start happening, and

they'll be on the downhill slides. Like,
you'll have to catch Kai and Lizzie on

a bad day to beat them. Did you realize
how much more spunky our team was when

we were number one in points?

When we went to two, he was like... Ryan
Martin is currently sitting in third,

and he is looking to lead his team in an
epic comeback.

We've always said that we're just, you
know, a race swing away from being able

to take that number one spot.

That means Kai's team, you know, goes
out first round, all of them, which,

again, it's going to be hard, but it's
possible. And we all advance, and a

couple of us end up in the semifinals
and finals, and all of a sudden, that

changes.

I'll tell you what we need to do from
this point on. Every car right here is

fast. We need to go right here. This is
Vegas. We need to win this race. We need

one of our guys to win this race.

So my team, man, we've been kind of
disappointed.

We started off really, really fast.

Damon and Nathan was carrying us. They
was kicking ass, beating everybody.

Me and Bowman and Bobby has not been
able to carry the rest of the team,

our load, you know? So right now our
team has fell off. We moved all the way

down to fourth place.

This weekend, man, it's time to make
some changes. Tonight, we got a lot of

pressure on our back.

I think all of us are starting to get
things lined out, and

some other people are having problems.

Now is the time. Yeah. We got my hot rod
back, so we're good. You made some good

ones yesterday? We made a lick last
night.

Wow.

That was good.

That's all we need, man. We got to go
some rounds. Yes. It's time to peak now.

That's the way it's supposed to work.
Towards the end of the season, you're

supposed to peak.

Yeah. I don't think I've ever had so
much pressure on me to not go out first

round as the day after I win my first
grade eight.

So at this point, everybody's looking at
me.

to do well. And on a tricky surface like
this, with how hot it is and how greasy

the track is, you can't mess up.

Hot and nasty, Scott.

And it's going to start bubbling like
that.

That's kind of leaky right there.

Kai, you're rocking it this season, and
you have not stopped here. You have all

five of your drivers in the invitational
class today.

Congratulations. So, folks. Good job,
Rankin. Yeah, good job, Rankin. Chris

Rankin. Getting the win in Race Your Way
In, man. Congrats. That's awesome.

Here in Vegas, there weren't near as
many trades as in past weeks.

Disco Dean dropped Jerry Bird into the
reserves after his car blew up last week

and pulled up Jerry Jansen.

And Mike Murillo dropped Mike Chandler
and pulled up Dominator.

After Race Your Way In, Team Kai Kelly
and Team Daddy Dave both have five

in today's event. So it's going to be
interesting to see who will help or who

will hurt their team.

We're officially in the back half of the
season, so now is the time for each and

every team to kick it in gear and make
moves if they want to stay in the hunt

down the homestretch.

All 32 drivers will draw from the
bucket.

Come on over, guys.

Coming around for the kill.

That's a good draw.

We've got some killer matchups in round
one today that will definitely send some

heavy hitters home early.

like Axeman from Team Daddy Dave versus
Lizzie Musi from Team Kai.

Then we've got David Gates, also from
Team Kai Kelly, going up against Damon

Merchant from Team Bone.

There are also three sets of teammates
who drew each other. Las Vegas is

up to be a hell of an event.

Here we go.

Go racing, guys.

Come on.

Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on.

Your first pair here. the Invitational
Class.

That is Kyle Canyon going up against
Disco D.

Yeah, what's wrong?

You guys don't look too pumped up.
What's going on?

We got three out of five in. So it's me
and you and Jimmy. Yeah, no, it's all

good. We need to go semis or better this
weekend, get on the map, get past

Murillo's team. You know what I mean?

Viva Las Vegas. I draw chip number one,
Kyle Canyon.

I kind of like being pair one, getting
it done. It's hot out here. It's

97 to 100 degrees right now. Especially
if that sun just keeps like having no

clouds in the sky.

Track temperature will be 135.

First pair down, don't have to sit in
the car a long time. Get up there, get

done. Gives me more time to turn the car
around and make changes for second

round if we can win this first round.

We're coming into the second half of the
season.

It just gets brutal from here on out.

Last night, the track conditions were
not really that good. We had so many oil

downs, so many cleanups, so much time in
between cars going down and the track

just goes to put it nicely.

Coming into today, the sun's out. It's
hotter than Hades. It's greasy.

So it's going to be really tricky for
any of the guys to get down through

The goal today is just go around to get
wins.

We fell down to second against Guy. We
just need to get together and just keep

racking up points so we can get back
into number one.

there, but Kyle Canyon turns on the wind
light.

So we just ran disco. It wasn't our
fastest pass, but we got to win. We went

around disco.

I don't know how close it was. I was
glad to get that one out of the way. I

needed it after the last two races going
out in the first round, so we're back.

Good job, sir. Good lap, Kyle.

Good job, sir. I thought I had enough. I
laid a good lap down, just wasn't

enough. Just got my ass kicked.

All right, next pair.

That is going to be Paige Coughlin going
up against Robin Roberts.

All right, man.

It's a whole different day than it was
yesterday.

You go from 85 degrees in a cool track
to super slick, hot, sunny mess.

When we ran our test pass last night,
the track temp was 94 degrees. Right now

it's 128.

Well, you know, we knew when we came to
Vegas it was going to be hot. It's

Invitational Day.

This is going to be a badass race,
someplace we've never been before. It'll

be a super challenge because... This
track's going to be slick with that sun

beating down on it. I just feel like
it's going to be a good day.

This is the kind of stuff where we've
been good and where the car can be good.

It's just the struggle of, all right,
how do we get that into the car to make

do what we want it to do?

I got Paige Coughlin first round. In New
Hampshire, she beat us. Like, we just

made some mistakes, and she just beat
us. Good for her.

This round's going to be different.

The plan going into this round is to
soften the car, make it leave right. We

move some weight back. It might stand
up.

The goal with this run is just get that
car down and get it fast on the top end.

I drew Robin Roberts and I was like,
ooh, this should be interesting because

was actually the first person I ever
raced in the Invitational in New

at the end of June.

But, you know, we beat them before, so
I'm like, all righty, well, just keep

that in the back of your mind. You know
what you're doing.

The car has been running really, really
well this weekend, and just go race your

race.

Good job, guys.

So I launched with Paige.

We're neck and neck. It was just stood
up, and it finally sits down, and we

drove away from her.

That's how you win a race.

First round is always the hardest. It's
miserable. You're torn up inside.

It's great to just get on to the second
round. Now we can go after winning this

race. Great lap.

You too, man. Thank you.

These guys are just fast out here, and I
have to keep reminding myself, we're

new. You're paying your dues. Just keep
going at it. Keep putting it back in

line and keep racing. Don't stop.

And we'll turn on wind lights. We will.

It looked good.

It was a good race.

Yeah, you were out for a bit.

All right, next pair. We got Doc Love
going up against Kayla Morton.

Buckle's warm.

Everything's warm.

Race day, Las Vegas.

Sunny, hot.

Wendy, we got some wind. That helps.
Made the invitation.

Green, green, green.

Unfortunately, I drew Kayla.

God willing, a little bit of luck, and
we get to win over Kayla and go on to

second round.

I don't think we've had a longer Friday
night at an MPK event. That was the

longest night. It cut into my gambling
time.

It didn't cut into mine.

Oh, it didn't? You rallied.

No, I rallied. You rallied. Dad's
wearing his lucky hat today. It is a

hotter today than it was yesterday, so I
think you can probably expect to see a

few upsets first round. This track is
really going to be tricky, but I have

the faith in the world in Chase, and I'm
ready for first round today.

Everybody is just getting faster. We
have to be on our A -plus game every

Like, there's just no room for error or
slip -up here.

Team Dave has all five cars in today.
I'm feeling really good.

I feel like a top dog here today.

I don't think he gets enough burnout.

With all five in, we're automatically
ten away from Bodie.

Bodie's only got three people in.

So right now, I'm still only one round
away from passing them.

Nice job, baby.

Some upsets today on this racetrack.

We demonstrated just that.

We went up against Doc, feeling
confident.

I honestly thought it was in the back.

The boat took off clean. I had him the
entire way, and then maybe like 500

it just got out of control.

I mean, it just nipped me at the very
end. So an L today is better than a

-up race car, and I think if I would
have drove it anymore, that's where we

would be. So we'll lick our wounds and
come back next week.

What happened, babe?

Oh, we just got super, and you came
around me at the very end.

High hopes for Team Heavy Metal and no
respect for the end of the season. I get

to stay on Team Murder Nova for at least
one more race, and I got some points,

baby. Get greasy on the big end. Yeah.

And, hey, it was an honor to race the
top ten.

Thanks, man.

Appreciate it.

That's a tough break for Kayla in that
race.

She was ahead at the start, but got
loose on the big end.

The track is tricky today, and it's
proving to be a challenge for some of

racers. They're going to have to be
careful with how much power they put

they want to get a win.

All right, next pair.

That is going to be Axeman going up
against Lizzie Musi.

So we beat her in a grade 8. Then she
come back and smacked us around in two

races.

So this is tough going in here.

It's the first time we've raced first
round, I think. Yeah.

Either way, whoever gets the win is
going to really help the other team.

It's hot out here.

I'd rather help my team, but I always
feel good when I draw Lizzie. I'm like,

yeah, we're going to get that win.

And when I get to the finish line, I'm
like, oh, that hurts.

Yeah. I mean, somebody keeps beating you
and beating you. It's rough.

Let's go out there and win one. Yeah.

We're going to give it a whirl.

Went up here to the chip draw with Lynn
Nullyweather and Lizzie Musi.

So this makes.

Out of nine races, this will be the
third time we break. She put me out two

times. So every time I pull her tip, I'm
pretty confident. I'm feeling like,

hey, I can get this. I got this.

But when I get to the finish line, it
doesn't work out that well beside her.

She's been whooping me bad.

So hopefully I can pay her back a little
on this pass here.

I feel good. We just got to keep this
motor alive. That's the biggest thing.

We're fighting that right now.

We literally, we didn't make a full pass
yesterday, and we were pulling this

thing apart.

So when people say that nitrous cars
have it easy in the West Coast, they're

lying. They're lying.

So we've got to keep it together and
hopefully go some rounds today. But a

is always on the schedule for us, so
that's what we're hoping to get. But

taking it round by round and see where
it puts us.

if their burnout's over in the left
lane. That is going to be Axeman going

against Lizzie Musi in the right.

All right, next pair.

That is going to be Axeman going up
against Lizzie Musi.

Axeman takes the win.

Nice.

Good job.

So we roll up, did a burnout.

We roll up to the light.

Light come on. I let out the button.
I've never seen it.

I knew she's got that top -end pull.

She's got it on everybody.

I was feeling real calm. I said, she's
going to have to really be rolling to

come back around me. As soon as I tagged
the finish line, boom, she dashed right

past me. I was like, man. I looked over
to see my light on.

I was glad to get that win.

Check her ass.

I just hate going out first round. It
sucks. But we knew we were going to

struggle here.

It is what it is. It's racing.

It happens. We're going to move on.

Can't wait to head back over to the east
side because that's when we're really

going to, that's when it's about to go
down. I promise you that.

But we owed you one.

Hey, yeah, I know it's true, yeah.

Man, that was tough. That was tough.
Good job. Hey, good job, guys.

Now take it all the way.

We got you now.

There's a lot of bears out here.

All right, next pair coming at you right
now. That's John Hoda going up against

Jeff Lutz.

What pair of numbers are y 'all? I'm
five, so I got to get going up there.

He's five and you're...

I'm six. I'm right behind you.

Yeah, we're heading up. Okay. We have
Callie running Rankin. We got Jim Howell

running Scott Taylor. And we got John
running Jeff Lutz. I really do feel

are three good races, and those cars are
capable of taking those three out.

So I'm hoping that we can get four
drivers going into second round.

Oh.

Got a two -call out. The rest are going
out of the bag. Too damn hot. Let's give

a round of applause for your locals.

Guys sitting in the car. Yeah.

My crew's in the car. That's how hot it
is.

They're sucking up the AC.

Today's conditions are hot and greasy.

It's going to be slimy out there. I
don't know how hot it is, but it feels

100 degrees in the shade. So we just got
to be on it. It's going to be a tuner's

game out there today.

Going into first round driver's meeting,
I draw John Odom. He's one of my best

friends. I love him to death.

Love you, buddy.

Thank you. I love you.

So watch.

It's safe.

His car's fast. We're going to have our
work cut out for us. So, you know, I'm

not going to take him lightly, and I'll
just let Jeffrey do his thing.

Ready? Yep. We're going to give him
everything we got.

Turbo car.

All right, next pair coming at you right
now.

Over the right lane, that's John Odom
going up against Jeff.

What? In the left lane.

Nice job, baby.

Next round.

He got tree.

Tree like a... All right, next pair
coming at you right here. Jim Howell

up against Gooter Taylor.

That's going to be a pretty good range.

We're in Las Vegas, and I drew Jim
Howell.

That's going to be a tough run.

He has struggled a little bit this year,
so I'm not gonna say that we're

outgunned by any means I think we're
both prepared for this fight.

I've got my list. We're gonna check it
twice.

We'll go through I'm gonna comment down
just a little bit early, you know in the

racetrack the track is hot Greasy early,
so that's gonna be the toughest part.

There's gonna be a lot of cars Don't
make the trip first round. I don't want

be one of those

Three to get it, too.

That was a fast.

Bam.

Hey, I'm telling you, he's fast.

He nipped me and Vandermeer by that
much. I knew he was fast.

All right, folks. Next pair here is
going to be a good one. That is going to

Giuseppe going up against Ryan Martin.

Hey, thanks,

buddy. You guys, too.

First round, I draw my teammate,
Giuseppe. Not at all who I wanted to

literally doesn't help us any. That
means one of us is not advancing. So,

we collect the 40 points for all four of
us being in the first round, but we're

guaranteed that one of us doesn't make
it to the next round.

So not only do you have to worry about
that when you just draw the drivers, but

now either I'm going to go out early or
he's going to go out early, and it's not

going to be good for the team no matter
how it happens.

As a team, we're doing pretty good.
We've got four out of the five guys.

Chuck, unfortunately, did not make it in
due to some type of equipment failure.

But four out of five is good.

Unfortunately, whenever you draw your
own teammates, you have to turn off team

for a few minutes. You pull into the
staging lanes, and Giuseppe's another

to me. And I hate it because he's my
buddy, he's my teammate, but I've got to

give him the best race I can give him so
that I can be the guy to advance.

It was a close drag race, folks.

All right, next pair. Got Chuck 55 going
up against Nate Saylor.

Got Chuck 55 going up against Nate
Taylor.

And Nate Taylor takes the win. That pro
-charged Nova.

All right, next pair. That's going to be
Clay Cole going up against Bobby

Ducote. Everything's good. We checked
for leaks.

Everything's good.

We'll be ready to go.

Plug wires, double check everything,
make sure right order. Yeah.

I just want to make sure everything's
perfect. I don't want no little problems

here. We're going up against Bobby
Ducati.

We can't have nothing messed up. Yeah, I
know.

We don't need no little problems getting
us.

Can't be taken lightly.

No, not at all. We need to make sure
this thing's a hot rod all day.

I got Bobby Ducati. I've not raced him
yet.

I got a lot of respect for him. I know
he's got a fast hot rod. Last weekend,

Denver, I went to the final against Kai.
So close to getting there.

I want it so bad this week. I'm going to
do anything I can at all costs to get

to the final and take home the win.

We went out about 100 foot, and it shook
the tire or something fierce.

I had to pedal it, started going toward
the center line, had to get back out of

it. I seen him coming up on my left. I
was like, ah!

So I went ahead and got back in the
throttle again.

And thankfully, we turned on the wind
light. You can't pedal either?

Like a nitrous car?

No. No, bro.

I pedaled twice.

I've never done that. I was going, what?
What is it?

Oh. You got two?

I took the shoes off.

Good job, Bubba. You too, Bubba.

All right, next pair coming at you right
now. That is going to be Tony McKinney

going up against Justin Swannstrom.

I just want to come over here, man. I
hate that we have to run each other. I

just telling them about it. But I said
the good thing about it is we all agree

to it. At least one of us goes the next
round. Right. I mean, dude, it's just

getting to the point now. We're in the
middle of the season going into the back

half where we're going to have to really
start focusing.

on trying to go after that championship.
You made great passes last night.

Whatever happens, hopefully you do go
rounds today.

Hopefully I can win as well.

He told me he said blow it up to win.

Yeah.

You don't ever want to draw your
teammate, but I drew Tony McKinney. He

yesterday. He had two great passes, won
his race his way in, and was able to

help us out as a team.

If I win, it's a great deal for me.

ended up the last couple races, haven't
been able to make it out of first round,

so I will be extremely happy if I can
pull this off.

Hey, Tony McKinney going to take the
win. Justice Watson rattles tires.

That's all it took.

First round win, I'll take it. We have
to race our team captain. Hopefully he

don't fire me for that one.

But hopefully he's proud of me for
making this trip and we made our way in.

We can go a couple more rounds.

Goal today is to go enough rounds that
we don't have to race our way in no

Next pair, that is going to be David
Gates going up against Damon Merchant.

Name our name.

Gates.

Gates is fast. He's in distance too.

As long as we make a good, clean run, I
think we can outrun them.

John Hill, you know, it puts a little
lump in your throat.

Here we go. We got a hitter. We need
this one.

With Giuseppe and Kayla going out, we
got, I mean, this is a good time to gain

points. We were hitting as good as
number two for a long time this season,

the first half of the season.

Since, you know, since I've started
having trouble, Nate's had some trouble,

Bowman hasn't.

Exactly found his way back into
Invitational.

Bobby's been maybe around here and
there, and Bodie's had a hard time

into Invitational.

Got to get guys going around and getting
some more points for the team.

Let's go, Damian. We need you, baby.

Next pair, Damian Gates in the left
lane, going up against Damian Merchant

the right.

Damon Merchant, we know he's fast.

He's always good on the tree.

You know, lately he's been kind of doing
good and doing bad, just kind of like

us. We've got something to work with,
and we're going to go out here and give

hell and see what he's got.

I let go of the button, the car started
shaking, and it spun the whole way and

turned sideways about 150 foot and just
had to abort the run.

Did you make a trip?

It shook right off the hit, and I tried
to drive through it. It just stayed

spinning, spinning, spinning. It just
pissed off.

Yep. Once they mad, they mad.

We're seeing a ton of drivers experience
tire shake today.

Tire shake can be caused when a car
doesn't have enough wheel speed and the

tires hook too much.

Everyone is out here utilizing power
management for the slick parts of the

track. But then, when they hit a part of
the track that isn't slick, they don't

have quite enough power in the car, and
it causes the tire to shake.

With today's conditions, the tune -ups
need to be perfect. Not too fast, not

slow.

Next pair coming at you right now, we've
got Jimmy Taylor going up against Kai

Kelly.

Go get him, Kai.

Oh. What race do you got?

Well.

Y 'all up there?

Yeah. Today, first round, we drew Jimmy
Taylor.

I haven't watched this car make a single
pass all year. All I've heard is people

walking around the racetrack talking
about the new guy, this car is so damn

fast. How'd you feel that CO2 bottle up?

I was good this morning. It felt good.

Okay.

With all that being said, after taking
that ass woman from Murder Nova last

night, we're just going to fight through
this weekend. I knew there was going to

be a weekend when I sucked.

I done just that last night in a grade
8, and we're hoping to turn things

today.

It don't matter, man. Everybody up
today.

Yeah, man.

I hear going.

What's working?

Obviously, last night you had to race
your way in against Paige Coughlin. It

a tight race. What happened?

Well, we got going toward the wall and
got the steering wheel and it just

wouldn't turn. I told my foot to lift,
but it just didn't lift.

Well, last night we was on our run our
way in against Paige.

The car started going left. We was out
in front.

I just didn't lift. I stayed in it as
long as I could.

All right,

clear the starting line. Clear the
starting line. Jimmy Taylor into the

We messed the car up a little bit, but
it was all just cosmetic.

We turned on the wind light. We made it
in the race today.

I mean, we're just super excited to make
it in again. This is our second time

making it in in three races. So, I mean,
we really, we've really worked hard to

get to this point.

We've got Jimmy Taylor in the right lane
going up against Ty Kelly.

And Ty Kelly wins the drag race.

I let go of the button against Jimmy.

He was actually out in front of me a
little bit. I seen him over there. The

started getting upset.

My car started getting upset.

I just drove through it. Made it to the
finish line and got the win.

So we just got to get this thing figured
out because we need to go fast here in

the later rounds because there's still
some heavy hitters in.

That was fun.

We went everything but straight, but I
never lifted. I held it to the finish

line and we got the win.

Next pair.

That is going to be Larry Larson going
up against Brandon James.

Cars running real good this weekend.
I've tried some different stuff last

You know, we've got so many races in a
row. I've been some things I wanted to

test. So everything's going good so far.

First round here at Vegas, we drew
Brandon James.

Brandon's good. Somebody said he's
making pretty nice runs last night.

Every car here, barring something going
wrong, all the races are within a half a

car. I mean, anybody can win any given
day, any given path.

It's going to be a good race.

And Larry Larson gets the win.

Man, five and out.

Next pair, that's going to be Rick
Bruder.

Going up against Daddy Dave.

We're 14th pair out, so I don't know if
it's bad or worse. The track's hot now,

but all those cars are going down. It
might be worse, but we'll see what

happens. Once the sun comes off the
track, it tightens up and gets better.

Right now, there's no clouds.

The track gets a little greasier, so
you've got to come back and make some

chassis adjustments.

We did that this morning, so we're
ready.

Yeah, forget all that data. It's
unbelievable.

Hey, I laughed fast. It didn't mean
nothing.

No, it's not.

Because this track is nice and cool out
and tight. Yeah. Now it's sunny and

green. Yeah. No clouds. And no wind.

Round one, we got Broody Brothers.

It's a winnable race if I get to tune up
right and get this thing going through

there.

He can't win races.

If you're running four seconds or
slower, you just can't do it. You've got

in the freeze and you've got to go down
through there to win these races.

Kennedy Dave has issues just past the 60
foot.

Got a little aggressive with it. It
shook really bad in the middle and out

back, actually. So it actually went
slower than any pass I've made here in

Vegas. I'm not a really good loser, and
I'm not a good first -round loser at

all. But lately, that seems to be the
norm.

Like this thing, the chassis, something
has kicked off with this chassis, and I

can't figure it out.

The thing's a shaking pile of... Coming
at you right now, that's going to be

Chris Rankin going up against Caley
Mills.

Hey, so you know we drew Caley Mills.

I mean, I feel good about it. I think...
Yeah, I was going to buy their old

motor when we broke this one in Ohio.

We drew Caley Mills. I honestly feel
pretty good about it. The biggest part

it, honestly, man, at this point is get
the Ws, grab those points for the team,

hope we keep our car together, and the
whole team comes out on top at the end.

hope it's one of us taking the W home.

Coming at you right now over in the
right lane, that's going to be Chris

going up against Callie Mills.

Chris Rankin is in Race Your Way In.
He's actually got three passes last

so in his passes he did pretty well. He
made it down the track, so he can use

that data from yesterday to make a tune
-up for today.

I didn't have that. I didn't have as
many passes as him, so I'm honestly a

little bit worried just because of that.

And Chris Rankin takes the win.

All right, folks, that is going to be B
-Rad going up against Murder

Nova.

I draw B -Rad, and it's never fun racing
your teammates.

It sucks, and there's a reason that I
picked B -Rad on my team, because the

goes down every pass.

On a tricky surface like this with how
hot it is and how greasy the track is,

you can't mess up. So you make one
little slip and he's going to be there.

pressure is higher than it normally is
for a first round.

All right, folks, this will be the last
pair of the Invitational first round.

Round one of the Invitational here in
Vegas is done and in the books, and it

looks like these tricky track conditions
have really shaken things up. But even

with several big names out of the event,
the round two field is still stacked.

Kai, Ryan, and Sean each have three
drivers still in, while Dave, Bodie, and

Swanstrom have two.

And we can't forget about Larry Larson,
the Lone Ranger, holding it down for

Team Disco.

Luckily for all these drivers, as the
day continues to cool down, the track

should get better and better, which
means we could see some super fast

All right, let's go ahead and start our
round two invitational drivers meeting.

Yeah, let's go ahead and draw chips, see
who's racing who.

All right, all my drivers have their
chips.

Where are my number ones?

Kyle Canyon going up against Ryan
Martin. Nate Saylor versus Murder Nova.

This will be a rematch from last night's
Great Eight. Another good one. Robin

Roberts versus Axeman.

Number four is going to be Tony McKinney
and Blake Holt.

Doc Love versus Larry Larson. Jim Howell
versus David Merchant.

Jim Howe versus Damon Merchant.

Number seven.

Rich Bruder versus Kai Kelly.

Which means my eighth and final pair
will be Chris Rankin

versus Jeff Lutz.

Battle of the Turbo Cars.

All right, drivers, go back to your
pits, get your cars turned around, bring

them in the staging lanes. We're going
to get that much closer to see who's

going to win $40 ,000.

Let's see which driver will make it to
the third round of this Invitational

Black.

Kyle Canyon with the pro -charge Camaro
against Ryan Martin.

Travis,

what do you think?

I like it, man. You like it good?

In second round, I drew Kyle Canyon.
He's been making some waves. His car

well. It's a copy, you know, pretty much
of my car. You know, the same combo

that I won the championship with the
last two years. He has a good tuner.

against a guy like that, got to be in
your A game.

Like, should I swing out more than I am?

We're going to step it up. The shade is
just getting on the racetrack, and that

instantly makes for a better racetrack.

I haven't got the race run yet. I'm
looking forward to it.

It'd be a huge deal if I can get a win
over Ryan.

We've got to give this thing everything
it's got to get around Ryan, so I'm sure

Chase will go in there, and he usually
doesn't tell me when he turns it all the

way up, but I'm sure he's going to go up
there and hit that up arrow as far as

it'll go.

We take off.

There's a point when you let go of the
button and the car kind of settles in.

And right when the car settled in, boom,
everything went away. I had no power.

Watched Kyle Canyon drive out of my
life.

He was turned off at the beginning
before I was at the 330.

Turns out that the shaft on the blower
drive broke as soon as I let go of the

button. So my car made it approximately
20 foot and then gave up the ghost when

it comes to the supercharger. So after
this race was left, And I got to be the

lights out. Ty's got to do bad.

Some people in front of me got to do
bad. There's a lot of crazy stuff that's

got to happen. This is 100 % season six.
It's the most challenging season that I

have ever had in MBK.

This next pair right here, that is going
to be Nate Saylor going up against

Murder Nova.

Hey, Phantom.

Put this in.

Round two, we go up. We draw Nate
Saylor. We know what Nate's about. We

fast Nate is.

We raced Nate in the finals last night
of the grade eight.

But it's a big difference in the track
from last night to today.

It's definitely going to be a tuners
game.

And we're going to see if his tuner is
better than me at this point.

I'm going to do the same thing I always
try to do. I'm going to try to leave on

him. I'm going to try to get to the
finish line first.

Usually he who leaves first is going to
get the win.

And we've been on the light and we've
been rolling all weekend.

He's running an MH7 ProLine Hemi. So are
we. He's running a ProCharger. So are

we. He's running a Mark Mickey
transmission.

So are we. Our setups are almost
identical.

It's going to come down to driver and
tuner to win this race.

Redemption Day. It's a badass.

I let go of the button.

I could hear him, but I couldn't see
him. And last night, I could see him out

door, so I knew we were out in front of
him.

Man, I needed that.

Good job, man. Good job.

Thanks, man.

It was the opposite of what it was last
night. I think you got me about what I

got you last night. And we just got
outran.

I didn't put enough tune up in the car.
The car was slow, and we got outran.

Holy, we got a race car, dude.

This thing's fast.

Next pair, that is going to be Robin
Roberts. He is going up against Axeman.

I'm glad I got back in left lane. I
just, I don't know.

I usually don't want left lane, but
since I made a pass in left, I just

go back to it. Feel comfortable?

Yeah.

Robin's no joke.

Round two, I threw Robin Roberts.

Robin has outran Ryan a couple times.
He's outran a lot of heavy hitters. So I

know he's got his stuff together.

He does have the bigger engine. That's a
couple hundred horsepower.

So going into this, that's in my mind.

I kind of got the lane I want. So
hopefully, we can go up there and take

out. Tracks will cool down.

That's going to help the car go a little
faster.

We'll turn a little too long, change his
shift a little bit.

Hopefully, we can pull it off.

Just finish up the bird out. This is
going to be a good one right here over

the right lane. That is going to be
Robin Roberts driving the Firebird.

He is going up against Axeman over in
the left lane.

Axeman is doing really well this year.
He's won a grade A. He always runs well.

My goal here is to ax the Axeman. We're
going to chop him down.

That's what we're out here for is to
keep going and win this thing.

Nice pass there in the right lane. Takes
the win. He will move on to the third

round.

Coming at you right now.

That's going to be Tony McKinney going
up against Clay Cole.

We're happy we made it past first round.

You know, Bruce had made a comment.

Hey, you never see us in the second
round.

He never sees us in the first round. So
I'm really happy to be here.

Hopefully we can push on. I want to go
on two more rounds, three more rounds,

get into the semis and the finals. And
if I can do that, I'll be a star.

And Tony McKinney gets the win. Clay
Cole has an issue.

Has to get out of it.

Get a shot. Hell yeah.

Woo!

It felt good to take that win from him.
It sucks you've got to put these guys

out. We all work really hard. But as
long as I keep going around, I'm going

be ecstatic. That's what I'm going to
do.

Yeah.

Redemption Day.

Woo!

All right, next pair. That is going to
be Larry Larson going up against Doc

Love.

We're good.

Round two, chip draw. I'm on cloud nine,
you know. I feel like we won our

playoff, and the rest of this is just
icing on the cake, you know. Hey, do

Go to work.

But make no mistakes about it. You know,
everybody else had a five race that

started over me, so I'm behind on
points. I need to go three rounds to

spot in next week's race. Through Larry
Larson.

Not a bunch of people are Larry Larson
fans, you know, including my team.

So that's a matchup that I'm really
looking forward to. And I feel like we

a Larry Larson killer tuned up in the
clock.

All right, next pair. That is going to
be Larry Larson going up against Doc

Love.

job. Larry Larson will move on to the
third round.

Two down.

Oh boy, it feels good.

Alright,

next pair coming up right here.

Jim Howell going up against Damon
Merchant.

So you know it's probably been bugging
Howell that we beat him twice in the

car. So it's going to be a big deal for
him to outrun us in his own car.

Round two chip draw, we draw Jim Howe.
We raced him in Epping, raced him in

Tulsa, beat him both times.

I'd love to come in this a little more
confident than I have over the last few

races, but we've been having trouble.

He's got a hot rod over there. Those
screw blow combinations are wicked fast

just about anything.

I mean, he claims that this one's
faster.

He's supposedly a self -proclaimed
better driver than Odom and everything

but... I think he's going to come into
this with something to prove.

So maybe going into this race, a third
time's a charm to shut him up once and

for all. I feel like we got a really
good handle on the car. Last night made

killer pass.

Today, first round, made a good lick.

He's got a fast car, but I think we got
a faster car. So time to go into the

second round and bust his ass and go on
to the third. He's wanting to bet $1

,000. I just blew him off because we've
done that before.

So some people do this for the racing
aspect of it. Some do it for money.

cameras and that kind of we've proven
that that's what they're all about they

haven't said about this in a while
though so but kicking his ass twice with

he'll do that you know so is it true you
drew damon merchant i did oh damon yeah

i feel like like you got it yeah you
know we don't tear anything up if our

ignition system will stay together i
think that we can outrun him so we'll

haven't got to race damon in the camaro
and so Looking forward to it, you know

what I'm saying? We can't be too cocky
or confident because we don't know if

we've got a fixed race car. But if it
makes the trip and doesn't break, I feel

pretty confident about racing him. But
one thing that people don't understand,

Damon and I have friendly rivalry.

Like, you know, I have a problem with
the ruling on his combination.

But nonetheless, it's there. We've got
to race with it. So it's pushed me to

work a little harder, and we'll see how
it goes.

I hope Damon thinks it's friendly. I
mean, we cut up a lot. Next week, I'm

probably going to sport a I Love Hot
Damon t -shirt.

We'll see how this one goes. That orange
one might be harder to get around than

that blue one.

Maybe we shut them up once and for all.

We go up there, get in the beans, let go
of the button, and never seen the dude.

I don't look back. I'm getting data for
the next round.

We kicked his ass. He can go over there
and sign autographs or, you know, take

pictures or whatever he wants to do. And
we're going to continue racing tonight.

All right, next pair, Rich Bruder going
up against Ty Kelly.

So what are we going to do?

Round two, I drew the Bruder brothers.
They're coming off a win against Dave.

Dave starts being fast all year. So if
they outrun Dave, that means they are

making good passes. So we can't take
them for granted.

Yes.

It's ready to go.

There's a lot of knowledge and a lot of
money on that team, so all it's going to

take is for a team like that to just
finally, all the stars line up and

going to be bad fast, and it could be
here. He came out today, he beat Dave,

all the signs are there.

We need to go fast to beat this dude,
and that's exactly what we're going to

to do.

It was a tough draw. We got Kai Kelly.

You know, he's the number one guy right
now, so I'm going to race my lane. We're

going to race our car.

We are in Vegas, so your gambling needs
some luck. Like I said, we're going up

there with some luck and be back here
and win the second round.

She's back, baby. She's back.

Thank God.

By the time he showed up to the race,
Django, eh?

Battle of the turbo cars coming at you
right now.

That is going to be Chris Rankin going
up against Jeff Lutz.

We're going up against Chris Rankin.

He's fast.

Good friend of ours.

He's a fellow turbo guy.

But, you know, to be the best, you got
to beat the best.

And you know what? He's in my way.

We need less to win this one because
Damon and Nate is still in it.

Junior got good data from first round.

We're going to roll in the second round,
and we're just going to keep getting

faster the rest of the night.

That's our first time ever in the second
round.

Pumped up.

VDAT. Now we're looking to move into the
third round.

Pass right there from Jeff Lutz. Nice
job.

Way to go, Jeffrey. Way to go!

Round three, baby!

It feels great getting closer to 40K,
and I'm the last guy standing from Team

Murder Nova. You know, I need to rep my
team well, and that's my plan for the

rest of the night.

Ty.

Man, he just got in, man.

Right there, boy.

Heading into round three, there are
eight killers still in the event. And

that the sun is down, the track is going
to be extremely good.

All those slick, greasy spots that gave
people fits early in the rounds are now

gone, and these drivers can really start
getting after it.

Let's go ahead and draw chips, see who's
racing who.

All right, all my drivers have their
chips. Where are my number?

One.

First pair is going to be Damon Merchant
and Kai Kelly.

Wow.

Number two. All right. Larry Larson
versus Kyle Canyon.

Third pair is going to be Tony McKinney
and Jeff Lutz, which means

our fourth and final pair will be Nate
Saylor and Robin Roberts.

All right, y 'all.

You know who you're racing. You know
what you got to do. Go back to the pit,

your car turned around, and we'll see
you in the stage lane. Let's go.

All right.

Damon Merchant going up against Kai
Kelly.

Went up there and drew Damon, man. So
you get another chance to outrun him.

That's good because I feel like you got
the tools to outrun him now.

Yeah. I got my favorite lane.

All right, Lane.

I drew my normal first, second, and
third pair.

That's okay.

Good thing he used Robin Roberts and
Nate Saylor drew each other, and they

to be the two cars that's hauling ass
today.

We drew Damon Mercer. The last couple
races, he struggled.

He's had some problems with some
injector drivers, and he's got it

now, and we drew him. So I couldn't draw
him none while he was sucking. Now I've

got to draw him when he's at his best.

I've been having a few issues the last
two races, and he's been killing it,

going around and, you know, took over
that number one spot and kind of ran

with it. I think he was five or six
rounds over us coming into this deal.

This is the perfect opportunity for me
to, like I said, bust his ass right here

and go some rounds and catch up on some
of them points.

All right, David Ferguson going up
against Kai Kelly.

It blew the blower off.

The motor just went lean, got a piston
or something.

And that's what happens, you know, when
you're out here trying to give your

combination all it's got.

You was a little faster early, and I was
catching you on the big end, but it was

walking a huge willy.

Pretty sure you was going to beat me to
the finish line, and that happened.

Damn.

Yeah, that sucked. Yeah, it done that
while it was this high in the air.

Was that one of those, like, fireball
type?

That wasn't bad.

Wasn't bad? It was just like a whew.

It's like an arc.

Yeah. No, it was a big claim. That was a
good race. Yeah.

Team -wise, I think we'll still be
number one leaving this race. But if

and Nate do end up going to the finals
together, they're going to gain some

points on them. Luckily, they're the
number four team and they're not the

two team.

You owe me a blower.

I need that. I got to win one. Y 'all
got to win.

Two.

Next pair, going to be Kyle Canyon.

in the pro -charge Camaro versus Larry
Larson in the Cadillac.

Third round chip draw.

We drew Kyle Canyon.

Kyle's been good. He's got Chase tuning
that thing, and he gets plenty of looks

at the racetrack. So cross my fingers if
I can leave on him and get this thing

to go down through there smooth. I hope
we got it.

Trans out.

Is it moving? Yeah.

Trans is done.

What about second?

I got nothing. Nothing at all? Okay.

Tried to put it in gear to go up to do
the burnout, and I have nothing.

So I had the guys run back and look to
make sure the shifter linkage was still

connected. Sometimes that comes loose.
Tried reverse, tried forward gear, all

three forward gears, nothing.

It has just completely lost the
transmission.

There's no converter pressure, so it
probably destroyed the pump inside the

transmission. It won't move.

Shifters, Lincoln's are all good.
Everything, no forwards, no backwards,

second, no third, no nothing.

Transmission. Like, moves, nothing.

All right, so it's going to be a single
here for Larry Larson.

Kyle Canyon is not going to make the
call.

Terry Lawson looks like he shakes a tire
there past about 150 feet. Has to get

out of it, but it is a by run, so he
will go on to the semifinal.

All right, third pair. It's going to be
Tony McKinney going up against Jeff

Lutz.

Thank you.

Round three, baby.

Third round driver's meeting, I draw
Tony McKinney. He's the last guy

for Team Swanston.

Hopefully I can take him out.

We just keep getting faster and faster.
The air is getting better and better,

and we're just going to keep turning it
up until we can't do it anymore.

One round at a time.

I'm the last man standing for Murder
Nova's team, and I got to do good.

I got Tony McKinney.

I need you to have to win this.

Me and Doc both went out in the second
round, but we still got Jeff Lutz in it.

He's holding strong.

Right now, we're a solid one round away
from catching Team Bodie. So Jeff is

going to have to go a couple more rounds
than each of those two. And that's all

we got to do is put points on the board.

Left lane, Jeff Lutz takes the win.

Yeah.

Hey,

it seems like he's just so calm and
he's... Jeffrey,

you are the man.

I let the button go. I never seen him.

That car's on a tear right now. To be in
the fourth round with this thing after

the troubles we've had is just amazing.

Finally coming together, and we're going
round.

Holy... Good job, man. Good job, man.

Coming at you right now, that is going
to be Robin Roberts going up against

Saylor.

All right, just do like you did last
time.

You cut a great life, so just
concentrate and just do like y 'all used

Yep. Have fun.

Have fun, okay?

This round, I draw Nate Saylor.

I've never raced Nate Saylor before.

He's new to the sport, but he's been
killing it, so...

We're going to have to put it in it.
We're going to have to really get on

car to go get him.

Now that it's cool, we kind of know what
to do. This will mimic what we did in

Tulsa, so we're going to go after him
hard. He's going to have to run hard to

beat us.

All right, here we go. Last pair of the
third round of the Invitational Blast

coming at you right now.

Over in the right lane, that is going to
be Robin Roberts in the blue fiber

going up against Nate Saylor in the left
lane.

I'm so jacked right now.

We're going on to the semis. We got
ourselves a bad son of a bitch here. We

Robin was fast.

We knew we had to turn it up. Lee turned
it up.

She just f***ing get. So, super excited.

Man, that was a hell of a drag race.

Yeah. Good job, you guys. Go ahead.

Okay? Yeah.

Hey, good run.

That ain't three inches. Well, I don't
know what to tell you. That's not three

inches. You may have noticed on the
front of some of the race cars, there

extenders. There is a set amount of
distance that a front end can be.

And these drivers try to get to that max
distance any way they can. Because the

longer the front end of the car, the
sooner you trip that beam at the finish

line. And there is also another rule
with these extenders that say they have

be a certain distance above the surface
of the racetrack. It sounds like one of

Robin's crew members is accusing Nate of
having an extender that is too low to

the ground.

What are you looking at me like that
for?

Come here, Robin. Come look at this.
Maybe you don't know what three inches

Come here. Come look at this.

Look at this. This flops around like
crazy.

There's not much I can do about it.

They measured it when they came and
checked the car. Nobody measured that,

That's why we put the other thing on the
bottom of it when they measured it.

Because it was five inches. Cheat.

Are you kidding me?

This has been on the car since I started
all this.

Playwright. We raced Robin Roberts.

I drag his ass.

Then we get to the end of the track and
everybody, oh, you're cheating, you're

cheating. So they said the car extender
on my car is too low.

And I said, then pay your thousand
dollars.

You know, check it out. Measure it.

It's not even two.

Like I said, it's one thing to be close.

Let's pull his car up.

Get your thousand.

I will. You got your grand on you? I
said I was good for it. Then you're good

for it. I'm good for it. It's good.
Let's go.

I'm just pissed.

If they would have not been an ass about
it and just said, hey, guys, yours

isn't three inches.

They immediately started, I'm checking
it. You're cheating.

Blah, blah, blah.

So with two cars having the same
infraction, the winner will stand.

Penalty's offset.

Flags are picked up on the plate.

It's no wonder every time he goes up
there, everybody boos.

Give me a ball.

Hit it.

Right here in the trailer.

I can chip it in there.

All right.

I can do that.

I hit the damn thing.

That's the same place I hit it from.

Stand it up, we'll chip it in there.

You ready?

Yeah, boy.

I bet you I can throw it in there.

I bet you the back tire can't.

You got to get the back tire from the
garage. Hell no. What the hell's the

Ain't happening.

ahead and start our semifinals drivers
meeting for the Invitational class.

We're down to four drivers.

Let's go ahead and draw chips and see
who is racing who here.

There is one left.

All right. Where are my number ones?

Nate Sayre versus Damon Merchant, which
means our best friend. These

guys are best friends. Larry.

Larson versus Jeff Lutz. I'll make sure
this is free. That better be.

All right, guys. You know who you're
racing.

Go back in the pit. Get your cars up
here in the staging lanes. Hey, I got

for you. One of y 'all is going to win
$40 ,000 tonight. Just letting you know.

All right? Let's do it.

All right. First pair here in the
semifinals for the invitational class.

Nate Saylor going up against Damon
Merchant.

Maybe third time's a charm.

Hey, third time's a charm.

We've been in the finals twice already.

Going into this deal, game plan, don't
draw each other. What do we do? We draw

each other. So, not a good situation for
us. I mean, at least we do know that

one member of the team is going into the
finals.

Team mate or not, it is what it is, but
I'm here to win that $40 ,000.

This is a bad deal for our team. We
wanted to stay away from each other and

each other in the finals to get those
extra points.

Unfortunately, Damon keeps drawing me. I
drew my chip. He keeps drawing my chip.

But no matter what, one of us is going
on to the finals, so I've got to look at

it that way, too.

And if it's him, kudos to him. We're
going to give him everything he can

Nice run, brother.

It felt like I was a drag race.

It was.

All right, folks. Larry Larson going up
against Jeff Lutz. Two more.

Come on, baby.

Two more.

Semifinals drivers meeting.

I drew none other than Larry Larson.

He owes me a few because I've whooped
his ass damn near every time we've

But you know what? I've seen his program
lately.

His cars come around.

He's fast, so we're just going to treat
him like everybody else.

Get that thing off us, double check.

He's not my best buddy, I'll put it that
way. I just don't like the man, and

that's putting it nicely, and I'll leave
it at that. But there's just things

that I've seen him do over the years
that I don't care for.

I just don't like the guy.

Backing up that pro -charge Cadillac in
the left lane. That is Larry Larson.

Going up against his best friend over in
the right lane.

Driving the twin -turbo GTO. That is
Jeff Lutz.

We haven't been this far yet this year.
We struggled a little bit. We came out

swinging and then we fell behind.

So, to win this...

To get into the finals for the team, for
Murder Nova team, and for my team, this

is huge.

You know, we usually win one or two of
these a year. And you know what? I hope

we win tonight.

Lutz has issues.

Has to shut it down.

It shut off.

It looked like it shook and shut off. It
has to shut it down.

Hey, he's up too, man.

Wow.

Hell yeah.

I'm kind of struggling tonight. Been
shaking a little bit out there.

Changed a few things on that run.

Quivered just a little bit and went on
down. I don't know what happened to him.

We won. That's all that matters. We're
going to the final.

So right now I get to hang on to this
one for a while.

Oh, my God.

All right, folks.

Larry Larson, he is going up against
Damon Merchant.

We got a runner in the final. A what? A
Team Dean car in the final?

I gave you a lesson one time, and then
you come back and took care of it.

I've won a couple of these.

I've been in four or six finals. I don't
remember over the years. We've been

here before. It's just been a long time.
So just going to the final, you know,

it's an awesome deal. I mean, you work
and work and work, and this schedule

beats you down and beats you down. And
to get to the final is awesome, and to

run Damon, that's even better.

Ready?

Let's roll.

Here we go into the finals right now
with Larry Larson.

I know he started getting a pretty good
handle on that blower combination that

he went to.

He knows what he's doing with the race
car. He's been doing this forever.

I'm going to try to kill his ass on the
tree.

And he's going to have to run me down
and catch me.

Here we go.

Invitational finals. $40 ,000 on the
line. Bodie interested in this outcome.

We need this big, man. We got to catch
up.

You were kind of falling from grace a
little bit, man. You were falling out of

it. What does this do for the points?

His foot doesn't tie for third place.

Here we go, Las Vegas. This is the final
race of the night. $40 ,000

on one race.

to him and his team.

I feel like my thing was just like
always, cut his head off on the light. I

like I cut a good light.

Of course, he put it well. I've briefly
seen him pulled away from him and never

seen him again.

What? Are you kidding me right now?

Crossing that stripe is...

rushed with emotion and you let it out
and how you i mean they're screaming

an idiot and seeing stars so you know
probably not the smartest thing but you

cannot control that it's just it's raw
emotion coming out so it's a feeling

no other getting in putting ourselves
into the position and getting it done

uh something i'd love to get used to
finally got to figure out how fast that

thing is yeah good job man
congratulations

You know, the car's fast. It's a
different combination than anybody else

has got, and he's doing well with it,
and he's been in three finals. It's the

first one he's won, so he's working for
it, and he earned it tonight, and good

for him. I haven't run him all year.
I've been curious to know how fast he

really is, and I got a good
understanding now.

You're crying.

Hey, Damon Merchant, I'm going to say it
right now. Third time is a charm. What

do you think about that?

Absolutely. To come out here is a
struggle for us the last couple of

Third time was a charm, baby.

That's right, man. Hey, look, you earned
this.

You are at the top of the No Prep King
series, man, with this win. The first

ever event in Las Vegas. There's not a
soul on this planet.

that has a trophy that says it's on it.
Here you go, Damon Merchant, your champ.

Look, Damon Merchant is a newcomer, a
rookie this season in No Prep Kings, and

he is making waves.

However, with Damon's win, Kai Kelly was
still able to keep his team in the

number one spot with Team Daddy Dave
behind him in second. Team Ryan Martin

Team Bodie are tied for third place with
690 points.

We are moving into the home stretch of
this season. And look, we still have

points and a half and double points
ahead of us.

This is far from over.

Ohio, how you doing?

Next week.

One of us has got to go on and win this
thing.

All we can do is go up there and give it
our best.

With Team Kai and Team Dave leading the
pack, the rest of the teams are trying

to catch up in points.

So they still have a shot at that $200
,000 championship prize.

You know, he's out there to kick my ass,
so that's what I got to do to him.

I'm not going to sleep until I get an
invite win.

You know, I need to go five rounds. I
need to win this. Keep on sitting, Nate.

Let's go, baby.

We need to go around to collect points,
or we're going to start falling down

that ladder.

Sometimes you're the windshield,
sometimes you're the bug.

We've been the bug all season.

I know the feeling.
