Previously on The Great Eight.

Drivers had a chance to close the gap on
third place.

And Lizzie Mucey takes the win there.

After points leader Kai Kelly was
knocked out in round one. Good luck.

you.

The car just hit. It stopped.

Nate, what's going on, buddy?

Torque converter bolts are hitting the
block.

Unfortunately, Nate Taylor not going to
be able to get it fixed in time.

Kayla Morton is going to make the pass
here. But only one driver made

significant gains last week. Nice pass
there for Kayla. She will be your grade

winner. $10 ,000.

Kayla Morton won her first event.

And I hate to take the win that way, but
it's $10 ,000. And moved herself up

from fifth place to third.

That bypass was a winning pass no matter
who was in the lane next to me.

And now our top eight here in North
Carolina are getting ready to battle it

for more money and even more points.

We are here at Galat Motorsports Park in
North Carolina.

Fun fact for you, Galat stands for get a
load of this.

And what that's from is the track owner
actually hauled concrete, so that's

where the load comes from. Get a load of
this.

We have been here before, but look, it
has been a few years. This track is

This facility is beautiful.

Coming into this event, the point system
has changed.

Now rounds are worth one and a half
times points.

Kai has a 21 -point lead currently.

Whoever wins this race will get $10 ,000
and 15 points, which could close that

gap tremendously.

The runner -up will earn 10 .5 points,
with the semifinalists each getting 4

All right, this is the grade 8 drivers
meeting the 8 fastest drivers in the

Invitational class, right? You're top 8
in points.

Right now, Kai in the lead.

So your goal for the rest of you, all 7
of you, other than Kai, is to get him

knocked out in the first round. I've
already been doing that.

Yeah, you've been doing a great job.
Kai's been doing a great job.

So at least y 'all know what you got to
do now. You want to knock Kai out in the

first round. He does have a little bit
of a lead.

Don't forget, points and a half. That
also helps. I know.

15 points if you want to. And how many
points you got?

50.

There's exactly that many points left.

So you're saying there's a chance.

Turn around.

Target right there.

And I know how you felt.

Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

You the rabbit. Yeah. Everybody got the
gun.

All right.

Ladies squared.

Ready? Yeah. Let's do this.

We got this this time.

Elizabeth, welcome back. Hi. Do you feel
better?

There's one left.

Number one.

Oh, man. Come on, man. Let's talk about
this.

Come out here, draw her. She's bad fast
here because she's raised around here.

This is her home track.

Number two.

Axeman and Kayla.

I draw Kayla more, so that's rough
there. I'm second in point behind Kai

in the grade eight.

If he goes that first round, that'll
give me the opportunity to run and catch

him.

So this first round hit is worth
everything to me. Number three is going

Nate Saylor and Kai Kelley. I'm going to
rematch.

Uh -oh. Feeling good coming into this
race. I crawled as fast as the last

It's points and a half for these next
two races, and then the final race is

double the points.

But I think if I can just clinch one of
these grade A wins, I can seal this

championship up.

Which means number fours will be Ryan
Martin and Murder Nova.

Ryan Martin. I drew him last week, first
round also.

I'd like to race him, but I'd like to do
it in the finals.

I need some points. He needs some
points.

We're just going to have to go up there,
let go of the button, see how it goes.

Go to the pit. Get your cars ready.

Coming off last week, we ran really
good, especially under the conditions

we were in after the swap, after hurting
a blower, and just doing everything we

could to make round by round.

We made it all the way to semifinals. So
coming here, we took the week to

freshen up the car, check everything
over, kind of never exactly know exactly

what you're going to get, coming right
out of the gate with a brand -new, fresh

combination. Team made or not, on
Saturday.

It's Friday night, and we're after those
individual points. I've got to really

make a push starting tonight to if I'm
going to make a run at this deal and see

if we can get another win on Friday
night.

We're running the grade eight.

It was not feeling good.

I had another treatment since then.

I don't feel as bad, so that's good.
That is a plus. I feel a little bit more

lively than last week, so I'm ready for
this weekend.

Good luck, PC.

Thank you. No, you didn't. You're good.

Good luck, PC.

We've been having motor issues, like
freaking blowing is not what we do in

camp, and my dad's been working night
and day trying to figure this out.

this race we're starting off with a
brand new fresh motor uh rolling in for

first round of grade eight um i ended up
drawing damon first round um i don't

know he made to the semis last race he's
running good

once

again in the right lane driving the pro
charge camaro that is going to be damon

merchant damon merchant going up Against
Lizzie Mucey in the left lane.

From here on out, the next two races are
point and a half. The finals is double

points. This is a perfect opportunity if
you've been slacking on points, but

you're still in the hunt to make up a
lot of ground here. It's anybody's

ballgame still.

I know Kyle's got a hell of a lead right
now going into this weekend, but it

just takes a couple of good outings,
winning a couple of races on Friday

and to be right back in the ballgame.

But we've got to get him out early, and
we've got to occur some points real

quick.

Damon Merchant takes the win there. What
a drag race between both those cars.

Nice pass for Damon, also for Lizzie.

Slow. It was really slow.

I got drugged is what I got.

Good lick for us, man. We needed that
one.

That little test hit that we did
earlier.

I noticed that we had a little bit of an
issue going on.

After making that lick right there, it
felt like we got a handle on it because

I'm up here and put a wind light on
against her and saying something.

Good job.

I was like sitting still while you blew
past me. Hey, it's all good.

Good job.

I was wondering if you made a good one
or not because we had stumbled.

Really? We didn't get a chance to make
the freaking one because the oil line

off. Oh, shit.

Yeah. Oh, I didn't know that.

But you look like you made a hell of a
pass. I made a good lick. Yeah. I'm

pretty happy with it. Oh, yeah. I need
to win one here and get one away from

guy. Yeah, you do.

Good job, Damon. I'll see you later. All
right.

Good job, Damon.

Thank you, ma 'am.

Tough draw, man.

Teammate draw.

Yeah, I don't like any of it. I hate
that.

but we've only done it the one time in
the final in Bowling Green, so it's

to happen sometime.

But I know it's so fast, but we're so
fast too.

We drew our teammate Axeman first round
of grade eight, not the ideal draw.

One, we want both Chase Riscoll tune
cars to go multiple rounds, but I guess

good thing is one of us is going to go
on no matter what.

Just the points and a half thing, it
just sucks for one of us to go out and

of us to move on, but it is what it is.

I do feel like he has a slight
advantage.

He tested here a couple weeks ago, but
I've been using that data, so we share,

and so it should be a really good race.

Take ass, take names.

That's it.

What would Andrew say?

What would Andrew say?

Ass whoopings are free all day.

Winning the Grade 8 last week is super
crucial.

It boosted our confidence going into
this week, and then it also allows us to

within range of winning. Maybe it has to
be perfect for the next three events,

but it's obtainable. So I'm really
excited for the Grade 8 today, see if we

stack some more points up and close that
gap.

So going into the Grade 8.

Here at Galap Motorsport Park, the
points move to a point and a half.

If you win, you get to 15 points instead
of 10.

That would be amazing.

I'm second in points behind Kai Kelly in
the grade 8.

If he goes that first round, that'll
give me an opportunity to run and catch

him.

So this first round hit is worth
everything to me.

Both next pair here in this grade eight.
Over in the right lane, that is going

to be Kayla Morton in the Pro Charge
Mustang going up against Axeman in the

lane. Axeman backing up the game changer
Mustang there. Left lane going up

against Kayla in the right.

Pro Charger versus Pro Charger.

Here we go.

Both Nick Pair here in this grade 8.

Over in the right lane, that is going to
be Kayla Morton in the Pro Charge

Mustang. Going up against Axeman in the
left lane.

Axeman backing up the game changer
Mustang there. Left lane going up

Kayla in the right.

Pro Charger versus Pro Charger.

Here we go.

Axeman will take the win there.

Nice pass for Axeman.

Lots of smoke from Kayla's car there on
the top end.

Guess who?

Guess who?

Guess who?

Second time he's done that.

Well, he definitely guessed.

We went up there to the lineup.

I kind of feel like he took a shot at
the tree.

And I wasn't expecting that from a
teammate, but all is fair in love and

It wouldn't have mattered anyways even
if we would have pulled off that W

because the motor is very tired.

I let go on that pass.

We'll get it fixed tonight, turn down
for tomorrow.

MBD. No big deal.

Make a good hit?

Okay. Damn.

That's a fun joke. Everything.

Damn.

One parachute?

Was it close?

No, Larry, you guessed.

I'm not guessing, I promise you.

I bet my life on it. I got top end, and
she felt like I guessed, so I didn't, I

just stayed in my side and let her cool
off a little bit.

It's not guessing, I promise you.

So,

we have Kai, third pair, first round.

We got the left lane, which I think is
probably the better of the two.

The right lane's got a little shade in
it, though, so the track temp on our

is going to be a little hotter.

We draw Kai Kelly first round.

Honestly, right now, we need somebody
that's going to go and swing for the

and take his ass out right away so that
the rest of us can get this points and a

half and cut his lead up.

I'm hoping that we get him early when
he's vulnerable and we take his ass out.

And this is points and a half.

If we win tonight, that's 15 points.
That'll put us at 35. Then we're one

eight away from tying him.

So we need to take him out and win this
tonight.

You know, he's got 50 points. We're at
20. So my plan right now is to go out

first round. We got third pair. We got
the left lane, which is the better of

two. And hopefully put Kai on the
trailer.

Another day in the office.

Stress level was in the red, but I just
got to take a deep breath and try to

hold these boys off.

Hey, bro.

Hey, pal. What are we going to do today?

Tell me something sweet.

Something sweet?

Yeah. So maybe you put that goodness out
in the world, and that goodness is

going to come back to you. Yeah, good
karma always comes back around.

Yeah, man. Positive out, positive in.

All right, man. Let's try that. Go out
there and kick some ass. All right, man.

Be careful.

All right, bud.

All right, folks. This pair right here
is going to be a good one. Over in the

left lane, that's going to be Nate
Taylor, pro -charge Nova, going up

Kai Kelly in the Regal here in the right
lane.

Makes the win.

Nate Taylor puts Kai on the trailer in
the first round.

That is going to help out the rest of
the drivers there in that individual

points championship.

We got a man.

I drew Nate Taylor again. Same guy ran
in the finals last week.

It was pretty much the same race. He
beat me right at the end, you know, so.

Points rise, I need X -Man to go out,
but at this point, I need everybody to

out. Sean's got 26 points.

If he wins the next two of these races,
he's six points ahead of me with the

points and a half.

Did anybody pack the shoes that haven't
been packing them?

Like I said, we just need some luck. We
need the people at the bottom. We need

them to start winning.

They went, like, through the willy bars.

Oh, one of them.

This ain't a good track for that to
happen.

This damn brakes was smoking when I
pulled up.

The best case scenario today is if
Damian Merchant could win this whole

that would really help me out. But it is
what it is. We just got to sit back and

watch because we're out.

Just got beat by Nate again. First round
loser.

Five weeks in a row.

There's one way to blow a championship.
Just watch what we're doing.

As far as making good passes, I don't
know.

They're just faster than us right now.

All right, so I'm back in grade eight
still. I'm sitting number seven in

And I drew Sean last week, knocked the
tires off, lost to him. So this week, I

drew Sean again.

First round.

Ricky.

Good luck, man.

We got a good position as far as the
grade eight. We're the fourth pair.

I got the right lane. He got the left.
There's nobody good. There's nobody

So, really, it is what it is. Maybe I
don't want to outrun my buddy, but if I

have to, that's what I'm going to do.

Let's get out of this oil right here.

Hopefully, man, they in my lane,
whoever's laying down this oil.

Honestly, this is more nerve -wracking
than anything is coming into this. It's

points and a half.

Just as easily as you can climb that
ladder.

You can get kicked off that ladder.

Have one bad weekend of the car not
running good, and somebody can sneak in

there and steal everything that I worked
hard for all year.

Unfortunately, I drove Ryan Martin.

I drew him last week, first round also.

And, you know, I'd like to race him, but
I'd like to do it in the finals.

I need some points.

He needs some points. Me and Ryan have
went back and forth this year. I've won

couple. He's won a couple.

But honestly, tired racing him.

He's got that thing figured out right
now, and he's on a roll.

All right, folks. This will be the last
pair in the first round for the grade

eight. Going to be a great one here.

If I can win, I'm going to win.

We're going to go up.

We're going to do the same thing that we
do no matter who we're racing. I'm

going to go up there and I'm going to go
as fast as I possibly can in that lane

and hope I take the win.

Over in the right lane, that is going to
be Ryan Martin.

Ryan Martin in the right lane and Murder
Nova.

Murder Nova in the left lane.

Let's see who will go to the semifinals
of the grade eight.

Here we go.

the first round for the great eight.
Going to be a great one here.

Over in the right lane, that is going to
be Ryan Martin.

Ryan Martin in the right lane and Murder
Nova.

Murder Nova in the left lane.

Let's see who will go to the semifinals
of the great eight.

Here we go.

A move towards the center has to get out
of it.

Hey, fast early.

Don't do me no good if I can't make it.
What happened?

It did not go straight again? No, it
left again. It's like third, fourth time

a row.

It's a tricky track right now.

It was slow out of the hole.

Looked like Ryan was out on me just a
little bit, and then he had problems.

And, you know, we made the trip, so we
took the win.

It looked like he was out on me.

It looked like he was out on me, and
then just all of a sudden it looked like

dumped out of it and just gone.

He definitely out 60 -foots me. We know
that.

And I kept on thinking, okay, all right.

But I didn't know. I know my car will
mile an hour a little bit more than his,

but I didn't know if he was out on me
far enough that I couldn't come around

him. If he'd have made a full hit, I
don't know.

What's got to change?

What's got to change?

Slow the car down a little bit, 60 foot
a little bit better, or hope the track

comes around to us.

None of us like turning the cars down.

You can walk out there, and the surface
looks amazing. It looks like it'll take

every tune -up that we have, and it's
slow out of the hole.

Too much wheel speed slows the cars
down.

We're going to go ahead and get started
with our grade eight semifinals drivers

meeting. Folks, we started with eight
drivers. The eight fastest drivers in

invitational class, you know, they
battle out for $10 ,000 on Friday night.

Well, we started with eight. Now we're
down to four.

My good friend Nate Thaler did the rest
of the drivers a favor, knocked out Ty

Kelly in the first round. You're
welcome. You're welcome.

Nice job.

Way to go.

Also, Murder Nova.

Able to beat Ryan Martin in the first
round, yeah.

Great job.

All right, so we're going to go ahead
and draw chips, see who's racing who

in this semifinal round.

All right, you're that much closer to
$10 ,000.

So, gentlemen, go ahead, draw your
chips.

You taking the trash this time? Okay,
I'll... I normally do, and then it

me. I'll race anybody, too.

All right, where are my...

It's going to be Nate Saylor versus
Murder Nova.

Red is right. First pair.

Wow.

All right, which means my second pair
will be Damon Merchant versus Axeman

Roach.

All right, drivers, you know who you're
racing. You know what you got to do. Go

back to the pit, get your cars turned
around, and bring them in the staging

lane. Good luck.

I cannot draw.

Either one of y 'all would have been a
better draw. Can I be honest with you

guys since you're standing here?

For you to say that about me makes me
feel pretty... You're fast as... No, no,

no. He's fast as... He's too fast to be
fanboying.

Get over here. You're too fast to be
fanboying. Damn.

Get your ass back up there.

Fanboying. Damn it.

Damn it.

Did this shock leak at all that past?
Did you put a wrench on there?

Let's do that.

Oh, okay. I think I have them.

Small one?

Yep.

That last pass we made, it actually was
starting to come left, starting to come

left in the car. I wasn't going to lift
yet because I could see him right there.

The car came down and I brought it back
to the center.

Yep, right now, until I figure out
what's going on, it was loose. Pretty

pretty loose.

Yep. So every pass, I'll have you do
that, okay?

Check the other side just in case,
Mason, since we have it out.

The strut didn't matter this time
because the wheels were carried for so

But we're going to have to add that to
our deal. I'll get a hold of Chris and

find out what I need to do.

If you notice, we put those weight pucks
back in the front here.

So we moved that weight from the trunk
to the nose.

We're hoping to keep that nose down just
a little bit. It didn't set it down

right before the finish line.

Like, it was up, up, up, up, and I could
feel it come down right before the

finish line.

I don't want it to carry it that far,
like half that's cool, but, yeah, it's

hard to steer when it's up in the air.
All right.

You know, the track's kind of tricky,
actually.

It's good early and then bad in the
middle and then good again. So it's kind

one of those deals where they're...

uh that we're having to change the tune
up for the length in the track basically

you guys we have not won a grade a yet
and i want one badly i mean don't

get me wrong i'd rather have the 40
grand than the 10 but uh i haven't won

of these and i want one and i think we
have the to do it so

Murder Nova. We race back and forth,
back and forth, always in the grade

He's killing it this year. We run the
same setup as he does, Perline Hemi.

The cars are pretty equivalent.

He's got a badass race car. We got a
badass race car.

It's going to be a 200 driver game.
We're going to see who wants it more.

First pair here in the great eight
semifinals over in the left lane. That

going to be Nate Saylor. Nate Saylor in
the left lane going up against Murder

Nova in the right lane.

We draw Nate Saylor.

is arguably one of the guys who has his
hot rod running faster than anybody else

out here. He's been killing it lately.

And the car's fast.

I'm going to have to go up there. I'm
going to have to do what I do, cut a

light, and hopefully get out in front of
him and stay out in front of him.

The last three races, it's almost like
he's unbeatable.

So he's definitely found the niche that
that car likes.

And he's capitalizing on it. So it's
going to be a drag race. I know it is.

And if we take that win, we'll be
sitting in a good spot.

Your first pair here in the Grade 8
semifinals over in the left lane, that

going to be Nate Daylor going up against
Murder Nova in the right

lane.

Going to the finals for the grade eight
class.

Wow.

I let go of the button.

And I treed out of him. I'm out on him.
I'm making what I feel like is a decent

pass. And he drove around me.

I did what I needed to do as a driver.

And the car just didn't make the pass it
needed to on that surface.

Dude, that was Gregor. Run with that,
man. There's nothing. I treed you. I

on you.

drove around me dude i can't i can't run
with that man i just can't like you

made a kill for stupid it pulled the
tires up on the gear change and just

them at the beginning of the season we
sucked because we were in air and now

that the air is coming around where pro
charger cars run now it's going the

other way nice job nice job right now ax
man's ahead of me so

That's not that big of a deal, but here
comes Nate, and Nate's coming hard. With

the way he's running, somebody's going
to have to shut him down.

It sucks, you know, because that pro
charger's the same as the one I got on

car. And if I could get down to that
weight, I'd be doing it. I'd be scared.

I did everything I needed to do, man.

Treat him. I was way out on him.

I feel more comfortable in the right
lane.

Which lane is better? I don't feel
different.

A driver always feels more comfortable
in the right lane because of the trees

right there.

Poor Damon in chip draw. I got right
lane. I kind of like the right lane.

I think both lanes are similar.

He's been a tough competitor.

I think his record is probably better
than mine against each other. I'm pretty

sure he's beat me more than I've beat
him.

So usually this car is as smooth as it
can be.

Now, at the top of first gear, it's
taking the tires and moving around.

Going against Damon, there's no margin
for loss here. I cannot lose anything.

That's going to be a tough run. I hope I
can at least sit out 60 and get out on

him, but that car is fast.

We're no stranger to racing that cat.
Him and I went back and forth a few

this season, and he's got a fast hot
rod.

I think here lately they've changed the
motor combination in it. And the last

time we raced, you got me.

And Axeman takes the win.

Right at the stripe in a grade 8 race.
So, redemption is what I'm seeking here.

Word around the pit areas.

Because he's been a son of a bitch on
the guessing lately.

I'm just going to get up there and be
aggressive on the light and, you know,

kick his ass.

All right, folks, this will be the final
pair, the semifinal for the grade eight

over in the left lane. That's going to
be Damon Merchant.

Damon Merchant in the left lane going up
against Axeman. Larry Roach in the

right lane.

The winner will go on to face Nate
Taylor.

in the finals for $10 ,000.

from both cars, but Axeman takes the
win. So your finals in the grade A class

tonight will be Nate Taylor versus
Axeman.

The light turns green.

I never seen him. About 150 feet or so
out, I felt my car start shaking again.

Oh, here we go. It's not going to make
the trip.

I went to the left of the throttle and
all of a sudden I felt it grab. I held

down.

Pulled off that win.

I was just chattering. I wanted to...

Mine is the top of first. It chatted so
hard, I started to lift.

Oh, down low?

Top of first.

Still about 200.

Yeah.

I heard you coming, and there you were.

Going into the final, that's nothing but
badass.

I'm gaining points on Kai, and for him
to go out first round and me to still be

in here, maybe I can pull this off.

But it's not done until I take out Nate,
and Nate is flying.

The front end down is messing this car
up.

I reckon he's going to tune through it
and make it faster.

If he gets the tune up right and gets
through that shake and you can keep the

front end down, I can drive it and it'll
go faster.

I know what he's doing.

I mean, it's going to be fast when he
gets it worked out.

So we're just a little bit away from
what we need. Yeah, we're testing in

8. That's not good.

Testing.

Kayla and Max both do it.

It's like right past 200 feet, they
slide.

And I can't hold them on. It's like I
don't know what to do.

I needed that race tonight. I needed to
win this deal. So not only for the

money, but for the points. And just let
it slip away. Last 200 foot of the race

there.

All

right,

folks, we're going to go ahead and do
our grade eight final drivers meeting.

We started with eight drivers in our
grade eight. Two drivers remain.

This race here is going to be worth $10
,000.

Our two drivers remaining are Nate
Saylor and Axeman.

The two drivers remaining.

Nate Saylor, I said earlier, but you did
all the guys a favor. You knocked out

Kai Kelly in the first round.

So did all those guys a favor there.

And now Axeman, find yourself in the
finals. Axeman, you're in second place.

This is your chance to get those points
just in time and catch up to Kai.

All right. Look, we got the coin here.

We're going to go ahead and flip it for
lane choice. Who's calling it?

He's won so much lately.

Nate's won so many rounds lately.
There's been so many people on the

going to give him lane choice.

Wow! Axeman just giving Nate Saylor lane
choice.

Wow, look at that.

Nate, what's up with that?

I don't know, but I like it.

Yeah, I bet you do. What lane are you
taking? We'll take the left lane.

All right, so Nate Saylor's taking left
lane. Axeman will be in the right lane.

That'll be your finals, folks, for $10
,000.

You earned that lane, brother. Thanks,
brother.

Come on over here. Come on over here.

Hey, come on over here. You want that?

Let them be. They make me look short.
They're making you look short. Come over

here. I'm good, really? Yeah.

Oh, the camera right here like this.
That's right. Hey, and I'll do this,

'all need a box? No, we got a box.

Hey, stay away from me. That makes me
look short. Let me step forward. No,

You're going to see your legs on TV. Get
you a box.

They make me look short. Oh, I love
that. Hey, he told me. They make you

short, too, man. Come over here with me.

Hey, because. No, come on.

Hey, that kind of makes you look short,
too.

I got my boots up there.

Hey,

I make y 'all look skinny.

That's one thing y 'all can say.

Hey, if we step forward a little bit, it
looks a little more like it.

No,

it's rattling one, two, six.

Top of first gear.

Once it gets in second, it goes.

Top of first.

Like it's pumping.

I mean, I shouldn't be complaining
because we're winning, but I got.

Like, this car don't do that. Right. I
mean, yeah.

Nate's been on a killing spree. I mean,
he's been slaughtering these racers.

I mean, we're just running at the back,
but, like, what was that, Ohio, when it

was spinning every time?

I mean, it's doing great.

But to outrun Nate.

Oh, it's going to have to be on point.
It can't shake. It's going to have to go

smooth, one -handed up.

It's going to have to be fast.

Nate's rolling.

Yeah, all the cars we think's fast,
Nate's been out running them. So, I

got my work cut out.

And with the tires shaking, man, the
confidence, I need them.

But in the back of my mind, it's tough.

I need that thing to make a pull, pull,
and be really fast.

Be safe, man. Yeah, good luck, you guys.

Good luck, man.

Axeman's a badass. I love him. They pit
across from us all the time.

Him and his wife are...

Just super cool people. I love them
both.

We broke in Denver against them, and
they got the win.

And then we beat them in Vegas.

So, like, it's one and one.

How many times are we in a race?

That's why he's in the finals.

These guys aren't in the finals because
they're getting lucky. They're in the

finals because they're doing the work.

And they did it. I mean, they just did.

It's a bad dude.

It's a bad dude.

I think we have a better hot rod.

than they do, and I want to go out and
see it.

This is the great eight finals right
here, folks. $10 ,000 on this race right

here over in the right lane. That's
going to be Axeman Larry Roach going up

against Nate.

Taylor in the left lane. This will be
the final race of the night.

10 ,000 to win right here, right now.

to Nate Saylor as Axeman leaves early,
gets the red light.

So we roll in.

Nate come in. Shoot, I went on the
floor. I turned loose that button.

Seen that green light. I said, oh, yeah.

I looked right below and seen a red one.
Damn.

That's really what happened.

Did you jump? No, I anticipated.

Jumping and anticipating are two
different things.

I got a great eight, man.

We've been waiting for this.

He knew he needed it.

I don't fault him for it, but you'll
never see me guess unless it's by

ever. But you lose right on the starting
line. I could have spun. I could have

broke something. I could have done all
sorts of stuff. But the second you guess

and turn on that red light, your race is
over.

Who beat you to the finish line?

Well, my win was him. Come on, baby.

I almost ran you down anyway. But, no,
that's when I let off. You thought you

got it. Oh, okay. Now we're at 35
points, and Kai is at 50.

We're only 15 points down from winning
this $100 ,000.

And the next two races are point and a
half and two points.

We got a shot at this $100 ,000, plus
our team's kicking ass. So, man, I'm on

cloud nine right now.

I did not jump, man. You didn't jump.
No, you didn't jump. You didn't even

for me to stage. I didn't even
anticipate it. I anticipated it. I

it. I still love you, buddy.

So Nate, coming off his second
invitational win, just won his first

event. That moves him from sixth place
all the way up to third.

Just 15 points behind Kai Kelly. He
could totally win in his rookie season

Milwaukee. At the beginning of the
season, it looked like Kai Kelly might

away with the Grade 8 championship. But
the drivers have got their ducks in a

row, and now it is a close race.

To Alabama International Dragway. How
are you doing today?

There's only two races left.

So, if you're in first place in point, I
want to lock it up, Kai.

Lock it up. Been trying.

You went out first round last week. And
the week before, and the week before,

and the week before. Don't suck, Kai.
Nate Thaler and Sean, they're two I'm

really worried about.

Nate could actually tie me, and Sean
could get really, really close.
