Narrator: The one thing
that will end a street race

faster than the fuzz...

We need some sunshine.

[ laughs ]
we need some sunshine.

Call in some sunshine.
Yeah, for real.

...Is mother nature.

-Where we at on that?
-Little blue dot.

But the problem is
it's like this,

[bleep]
is coming up that line.

Like literally oil and water,
racing and rain don't mix.

Oh, lord!

It's starting to
rain real quick,

let's get our cars
in the trailer.

Okay.
- We have to try

to make a make up
or something.

Narrator:
No matter the reward,

the risk isn't worth it.

Man:
There it goes. Here's the rain.

J.J.: What do you do
about this?

If we only had five minutes,
we could have made it happen.

It ain't going to happen today,
we're gonna have to save it,

try to do it somewhere else
and do it another day.

I don't know what they're
gonna do with this mess.

all right, here we are, y'all,
once again.

It's even bigger and better.

Last year, it was awesome.

Here's what I'm doing,
mr. Chucky.

It's $20,000 each round, birdman

$300,000 to be raced here
on the street.

That [bleep] mine.

This is the biggest street race
in history right here

in the middle of wyoming,

and you know what?
Some of the fastest cars,

street-racing legends
right here,

right dead
in the middle of this.

We brought some
heavy hitters, man.

We got some guys
that put in the work

and they know how to do it.

We know how to win.

This is absolutely the fastest
group of people

and it's for the most money.

We feel we're the baddest,

and we want to
race the baddest.

Do you feel like you
can...

I feel like I got
- everything for everybody here.

This year is
our first year here,
racing the fastest in america,

but it is not our first year
that we've been street racing.

How many of them
are real street racers?

We're not scared of the cars.
We're not scared of the people.

I've not come here to lose.
I came here to win

every bit of that money
that's in that bag.

You ain't a street racer, man.

How the hell you gonna tell me
how to street race?

I've seen it that [bleep]

that don't matter.
You can see it.
Yeah, you saw it.

I ain't got to worry about
seeing y'all

because ain't gonna make it past
the first round.

I got some of
the baddest [bleep]
from around south carolina.

And we're going to come and make
an impression here in wyoming.

If you find a street tonight,
I'll gap you tonight

for however much money you got,
and that's a fact.

We made it all the way
to the finals and raced j.J.,

and we got beat.

So we come back this year
trying to get revenge.

It's going to be an arm drop.

It's going to be
chase is a race.

It's going to be
two water burnouts only.

Far as this other old stuff,
this double yellow line,

I don't care if you run out
in that desert,

long as you make it
to the finish line.

I like that.
Is that gangster?

That's one thing about you, j.J.
You keep it 100.

Yeah, but the center line
keeps people safer, man.

You're gonna have some dummy
overdriving their car.

You gonna have some trouble.

[ cheering ]

I never seen a million-dollar
street race,

you getting ready to see one
tonight, all y'all.

I'm j.J. Da boss.

Last year,
me and my memphis family

proved that we are
the fastest in america.

Mso!
Get them down here!

And now I've heard from racers
from all over the country...

We gonna [bleep] up
this time.

...That they could
beat memphis.

We coming to knock heads off,
that's for sure.

Now I'm doing it again...

That's a drag race!

...At a secret location...

High altitude.

...On a road
no one has raced on...

Lord have mercy.

...With more racers...

Can't trust nobody.

...And more money.

It's $20,000 each round.

$300,000 to be raced
here on the street.

And this time,

I've invited 12 of the baddest,
realest street-racing teams.

We're taking
the "w" home.

Those 12 team
will race each other...

I'll drag
that [bleep] ass again.

...Round by round.

You be careful who you're
calling [bleep]

the first team
to win eight races

moves on to the next round.

5-6!

The last team standing
will take on memphis

for $100,000.

I'm trying to see who is
the fastest on the street.

But none of it's going
to come easy.

Can't believe I fell
for that dumb [bleep] man.

This year there's no rules
about crossing.

That was good [bleep]

the competition...

I proved it!
[bleep]

...Is the best of the best.

They're all
[bleep] fast [bleep]

the gangsters don't dance,
we boogie.

These guys
are going to have to be ready

to give everything...

We gonna go out
with a bang.

...To find out who is
the fastest in america.

jesus' name, lord,
let him be okay.

♪

this year there's a bunch
of new faces here.

You know,
this year we got 12 teams.

Here's what I decided to do,
you know,

give them that respect.

Block, mr. Kye, relic,
and chucky,

they made it
to the second round

so they're gonna get a bye
on the first round.

We gonna let
the other eight teams

face off with each other
and race each other.

This year, we got 12 teams
coming out to race,

so it's going to be a
little different than last year.

First off, we're going to
run a wild-card round

for the new teams

and the teams that lost
in first round last year.

They'll race-off to see
who deserves a spot.

The four wild-card winners
will join the four teams

that made it past round 1
last year.

And then it's on.

Eight races down to four,

then four down to two,
then two down to one.

And that one team will face off
against memphis.

To say they are the fastest in
america and claim the title

plus the $100,000 cash.

Let's draw, y'all.
I got some cards.

Y'all ready to draw?
Let's draw.

Let me have eight team step
forward just a little bit, sir.

Aces is gonna race aces.

Kings is going to race kings,
queens going to race queens,

jacks is going to race jacks.

The ace of hearts determines
whether they want to race first

or they want a race last.

Ace of hearts, buster.

Yes!

Do you want to race first
or you want to race last?

So who got my kings?
Y'all going first.

Look like axman racing who?

Black sheep mafia.

Black sheep mafia!

Look like boddie from california
racing texas --

the birdman and the murillo.

Joey from wyoming.
Guess who you racing.

Racing the baddest
son of a bitches here.

Buster.
Finally!

Buster racing --
who are you racing, buster?

Utah.

The wild-card round is set.

The first matchup
of the wild-card round

is going to be axman himself
and his team virginia

going against brent self and
adam plunkett, former nola guys,

with their new team,
black sheep mafia.

Whatever you want to do.
Couple thousand.

That's fine.

Couple thousand dollars
on it.

And they got a chance
to win $20,000

and they can gamble all you want
on the side.

Let's go.
- It's on.

♪

♪

j.J. Done brought us in
the middle of damn nowhere,

but I think we've got
a badass team.

Oh, yeah, no doubt.
I know we do.

Black sheep mafia is led
by brent self,

and he's got
adam plunkett with him.

They both raced with nola
last year.

Adam, I got you
in the number one spot.

And brent, we all feel like
you had the fastest car tonight.

Kye kelley and team nola made it
all the way to the finals.

Brent by a car!

[ cheering ]

and brent self
and adam plunkett

for sure got a lot
of those wins.

Left-hand lane!
New orleans!

But sometimes teams just can't
deal with pressure

and can't work things out.

Adam plunkett and brent self
got in a fight with kye kelley

and they parted ways.

'cause you dropped
in his face.

No, and I --

no, y'all wanted to be [bleep]
about this!

Okay.
- Well, you still ain't [bleep]

no, you ain't [bleep]
we gonna show y'all!

So this year,
adam plunkett and brent self

have their own team
they call black sheep mafia.

They claiming that they
the real deal

and they're fast on the streets.

They got a lot to prove.

There ain't nobody
you fear out here?

Not a one.

You got kye and the new group
from new orleans,

they're baddest on the street,
they've done their deal, but...

-They're a thing of the past
is what you're trying to say?
-A thing of the past.

Both brent and kye
showed up telling me

they don't want to fight,
they want to race.

But with that being said,
they could end up

racing each other,
and things could get heated.

But first, black sheep mafia
has got to get past axman

and his team from virginia.
That could be tough.

I'm not going to sit here
and say I'm real street,

but I'm here to prove
that a no prep kings person

can set anybody on fire.

It don't make a difference.

Axman, his team virginia,

are well known
in no prep racing.

Wow.
That [bleep] can run.

But they showed up
on grudge night

and probably made
some of the fastest pass

I seen that night on the street.

That action
[bleep] [bleep]

that was a good one.

Virginia is trying to prove
that they are street racers,

not just no prep king racers.

Of everybody
that I didn't want to race

first down the road -- axman.

But it is what it is.

You've got to beat them
all to win.

Racing axman's team is going
to be tough.

Them guys, they've been around
a long time.

I got a feeling he don't want
to run us neither.

I mean, you got
- to get through all of them.

It's going to be a dogfight
all the way to the end.

These guys followed me

all the way across
the united states, basically,
you know?

We're from louisiana and florida
and arkansas.

For them to come over here,

I got to do all I can to lead
them to a victory.

I mean, brent has a lot on us

because, I mean,
he raced it last year.

So he knows every game
there is to play every game.

Every game.
He's a top team.

We got the baddest racers
in the country, I mean.

I know black sheep mafia
is a badass team,

but I know they have
some weak links,

and I may have
to pull them cards

to get around them
to take them out.

There are some big-caliber
racers and a lot of badasses,

and I know it's going to be some
driving, some sideways racing,

knocking the tires off.

It's going to be interesting.

All right, y'all ready to do it?
Let's do it.

Come on, axman!
Come on, black sheep mafia!

-What's going on, brother?
-How you doing, mr. Axman?

-Doing good.
-Glad y'all here.

Hey, big man.
Doing good.

How's it going,
black sheep mafia?

All right, all right.

How you doing,
my little drunk buddy?

I see it.

Here we are in the middle
of wyoming

on a concrete road.

Each round, $20,000

winner at the end
going to face memphis

for the $100,000.

But, you know, the only thing
different is this year,

it's going to be
a race to eight.

The first team to eight wins

$20,0000 and advances
to the next round.

[ whistles ]

you're going to fill out
a list of eight.

Neither team is going to know
what order

you put that list in.

That's going to have
a lot to do with it.

You know, with that being said,

how y'all think
it's going to turn out here?

I honestly think I got
what it takes to beat them,

but they're going to
be tough.

You ready to do it?

We already had two on it.

Plus $2,500.

Ooh-whee. $2,500.

He said "plus $2,500."
that'll work.

So a total of $4,500.

You know, with that being said,
let's make our list

I want to come out swinging,
and let's get us a win.

So we set our pace.

It ain't no telling what they're
going to do.

We'll have to go into war here

because them guy's
- are going to have some tricks.

There's plenty of strategy
and games going to be played

on the starting line.

And they've been
leaving early.

So I'd figured I'd try
some of what they was doing.

Only one team
can walk away with $20,000

and a chance to move
to the next round.

That's a drag race!

Axman: First thing we need to
come up with is

what order
we're gonna go.

I would like to, whatever
we feel like they may think,

I'd like to try to trick it up
a little bit.

I don't think they're going
to put their fastest up front.

You don't think so?

Now, out of all the cars
we have here,

who is 100% confident
- they go down first and be fast?

I will.
I think I can.

100% down.

I pick dwayne to go out
in the killer cab.

Yeah.

Everywhere we went,
he's been solid as hell.

I want to come out swinging,
and let's get us a win

so we can set our pace.

Myself, I'm gonna come
right behind dwayne.

I feel like axman's going to be
right in that area.

They're probably going to think
that I'm driving two cars,

I'm going to go first-second,
seven-eight,

something like that.

I think you need to do
like a four-six or...

Screw them up.
- Yeah.

If I did four-six
or somewhere in there,

they're not going to think
I'm gonna put my two cars

close together.

So then I'm not racing
who they want me to race.

And which I'm fine with racing
any of them,

but if I can trick their
game up, I'd rather do that.

I'll go second.
Yeah.

-So then it's a little bit
more down for you guys.
-Yeah.

I don't know how he's gonna have
his car stacked right in there,

but I feel like he's going
to try

to get him
a little rubber down,

and then he's gonna try
to come in fast.

But if we can get
that lead on him,

if we can get out of the gate
and get one car ahead of him...

You get a lead on him,
he's gonna try to chase,

he's gonna try to leave on you.

I mean...
Yeah, whatever.

They sure are tough.

Brent's car gonna make
a super good lick.

Brent's car is. I know that.
Yeah.

I feel like axman,

his two cars is going to be
dead on keel.

Chuck goes third,

and then you go fourth,
I go fifth.

You go sixth, and we'll stir
the whole pot in the middle.

So I'm gonna make a hit,
and when I make my hit,

I got to be back here.

So it's gonna take me --
it won't take long.

All I've got to do
is hop in the other car.

I'll already have
my driver's suit.

You'll have the car facing
there, sitting there.

So it won't be that bad.

They ain't gonna expect you

to go back-to-back
or close together.

They're probably gonna think
I'll go first or second.

Coming after that,
I got adam.

You know, last year,
adam always come out first.

He was our leadoff man
with his nitrous car.

Adam got a procharger
this time.

He makes a lot of steam,
so I think any of them

other booster cars
they got over there,

he's ready for them.

I feel like adam, I talk a lot
of trash to him...

-But he's deadly.
-...But he racing so much
in the street.

He knows his car.
- He knows how to go with it.

Coming behind that,
the one and only,

the hater maker,
russell stone.

[ whistles ]
let's see it.

See what happens.

You can make
- a lot of people hate you.

Our only a small-block car.

Yeah, but it's
a bad small-block.

It's a bad son of a bitch.
I agree with you 100%.

Coming after that is ryan
in the gate keeper mustang.

Like you're running
a little smaller tire,

ryan's running
a little smaller tire.

Y'all's cars are fast,

but we need to get
a little rubber down for y'all.

Coming in after that, we got
a bad son of a bitch coming.

Stan allen.

They better have
their [bleep] together.

He's gonna be the clean-up guy
for us.

He better stack his list right
is all I can tell him.

Because, you know,
you put a list together

to run this right here,
better have it right,

because that
plays a key factor in winning.

So jason's going to go seventh,
eighth. Which one?

Put him seventh.

Jason seventh.
Jason seventh.

And then I'll be eighth
with the '57.

Eighth with the '57.

We're about to go
into war here

because them guys
- are going to have some tricks.

You got the hustle, you got
the jump, you got fast cars.

You've got so many other ways
to win than at a track.

I think car for car,
we're strong

they got a hell of a race
coming to them.

The jumping
and sitting.

That's going to play
- the biggest part of this race.

That's going to be
a big part of it.

I think it's all going to come
down to

who can play the game the best.

Ain't nothing to it
but to do it.

All right, let's get the list.
Let's do it.

All right, who's going first for
your team?

You going first?
-Yeah.

I drive the filthy '55.

It's a 1955 chevy.
Small-block pump-gas on nitrous.

Who you got first?

Wayne barbaree
in the killer cab.

All right, man.

Dwayne barbaree,
el dorado, arkansas.

Killer cab,
owned by russell stone.

Be careful out there.
- You too.

Second pair, axman.

Paul in icebox.
- Where'd he go? Right here.

Paul jr.
I drive a '63 pontiac tempest.

J.J.: Who you got?
Ooh, brent self himself.

Brent: Brent self.

I'm the team leader
for black sheep mafia.

I got a 2002 camaro.

Got a procharger with
a big-block chevrolet in it.

There it goes.
Be safe.

That's all I got to say.

See what happens.

Who we got number three?

Chuck 55.

My name's chuck 55.

Brought the '68 camaro,
better known as flatliner.

They're gonna look pretty
on the starting line.

Byron: Mr. Byron jordan.
'66 chevy ii.

There we go.
Who's the next one?

They call him axman.

Axman himself.

Axman: I actually brought out
two cars that I'll be racing

for my race with david,
I'll be racing my new car,

my '67 chevy nova
with chrome bumpers and an ax.

It's got to procharged
big-block hemi under the hood.

I think it's faster
than my old car,

and I think people
will figure it out

when they see my taillights
getting smaller and smaller.

Brent: David gates.

My name is david gates jr.

I'm from junction city,
arkansas.

I drive a '95 mustang
called redrum.

Think you got what it takes?

I know I got what it takes.
We got what it takes.

This is gonna be good.
A real legend.

All right.
Who the next pair?

Let's see.
We got brad.

I'm brad diggs.
I drive a '99 firebird.

It's a big-block, big-tire,
two kits of nitrous.

Adam plunkett.

Adam: Adam plunkett.
'69 camaro.

J.J.: I'm going to put you
on blast.

Last year you won
more races for new orleans
than anybody in the world.

You had nitrous, and I don't
know what you done.

Went and changed
the whole thing up,

put an airplane motor
or something in that.

We're going to see
how it works.

We're gonna put a halt
on that right now.

We're going to put a halt
on that tonight.

How confident you feel
of that, sir?

I'll put 500 on it.

500.

500. He gonna make him
change the motor.

He gonna have to
change it twice.

Ooh-whee.
We'll see shortly.

Hoo hoo!

Who the next one?

The axman again.

Axman again!
- Nice!

Axman: Also brought out my
original '63 chevy ii nova.

It's all black with
the black ax on the front.

Brent: Russell stone.

My name's russell stone.

I drive a '90 mustang,
hater maker.

Small-block ford, single turbo.

J.J.: He's going with
the '67 nova first.

He going with
the little shoe box next.

All right, who next?
Talk to me.

Jason kowalsky.

Jason:
Jason kowalsky for team axman,

I drive a 1980 malibu

with a big-block
nitrous motor in it.

Who you racing
from black sheep mafia?

Ryan manuel.

Ryan: '91 ford mustang.
Small nitrous motor.

Both of y'all need to shave.
Neither one of y'all pretty.

Who the last one?

I'm going again.

Which car?

I'm in the '57 chevy.

Stan allen.

I drive megatron.

My name is stan allen.

I drive a 2000 mustang.

It's got a 481x twin-turbo
charged proline motor in it.

Got it?

Oh, yeah.
Good race.

All right, buddy.
Be safe.

Be safe.

You think you got a chance
of beating him?

You know he got a lot of car.

I think
- it's going to be a hard race,

I don't know
- if it's going to be a gap,

but I think
I'm gonna get him.

I think there's gonna be
a gap.

I think I'm gonna beat him
with no gap.

Oh, no.
Ain't happening.

He ain't got a chance?
Nope.

You getting ready to see
a bloodbath tonight.

J.J.: Kye kelley, I'm gonna
ask you a question.

You lost two of your --
two of your...

It would be like me losing
tricia and precious.

I would feel like that.

I know.
Man, it's a [bleep]

is what it is.

But let me say this --

a leader
is like being a parent.

There's a lot
of sacrifice.

And I told him, I said,

brent's getting ready
to see firsthand.

Most of time,
all them wins brent got,

he went back to doing
whatever he want to do.

This year
he got to be up here.

I ain't gonna lie. I'm mad at
him, but I hate to lose him.

Takes a man to say it,
right?

So...

Brent self has a ton of
street-racing experience

and he's fast,
but he's never led a team.

With that being said, axman is
really fast on the track

and he's a great racer,

but he's never
had to lead a team neither.

So both of these team leaders
are going to be put to the test.

Me personally,
I feel like the first race

of the night sets the tone,
and making that decision

of who you're
going to send out first,

it sets it for the night.

Think it needs just a little bit
of fuel in it right there.

In those cells.

Brent and nola, it split.
Brent's not with the team.

We're following brent,

and we've got
some heavy hitters.

I believe we've got
enough juice in this team

to gun down anybody here
if everything lines up.

I think we're in good shape,
stone. 100%

I think
we've got them covered.

I think we're going to
put a gap on him.

I think he's going
to get to see

them big parachutes.

Pretty confident
he'll do it.

Who you got?

It's going to be
a tough one,

but, you know, I'm saying
I probably have to lean

towards the black sheep mafia.

I love axman.
He's great.

It's just they're a team.
They're a solid team.

You know, I like axman.

I would bet that axman
wins his two races.

I agree.
- But it takes more than that.

It takes a team.
It takes more than that.

It's going to be a drag race.

Let's roll.
Let's roll!

[ engines revving ]

tonight,
the first official race

on this wyoming concrete road

is going to be the killer cab
of black sheep mafia

and the filthy '55
for virginia.

You can put a ton
of power down,

but you got to take the altitude
in consideration also.

All eyes are going to be
on this first pass.

Everybody's watching to see
what this road can take

and how much power
you can put down.

That's a drag race!
That was a race.

Wow. Yeah.

What do you think?

I think black sheep mafia,
but sammy drove.

Yeah!
- [ cheering ]

yeah, sammy was
a little late.

Left lane!
Black sheep mafia!

[bleep]

good job, buddy.

You can't take nothing
from him.

He started popping
on the other end.

I think he burned a piston.
Sounded like it.

Might have been
a different race if it hadn't.

You didn't see it?
Poof!

Yeah, it lit up.

Dude, I couldn't be
more pleased with the way

that list sorted out.

I draw paul jr.
In the icebox car.

He street-races.

You know, I mean,
I'm going to go out there

and do what I regularly do,
and, hey, I can wish him luck,

but I don't think it's going
to help for him, you know?

In my mind, he did not do his
homework on his list.

You get you a two-
or three-win cushion,

then you can control it.

So you feel good
about our --

you damn right
I feel good.

How everybody lined up.

We get two or three wins
on them,

they're going to
be desperate.

If I win the lane choice
which lane should I take?

I'd take right lane.

Paul: Drew brent self.

I'm pretty sure he's
the fastest one on the team.

So I'm jumping it.
Straight up I'm jumping.

If he chases me, it's just going
to have to be

a chance I'm going to take.

Yeah, like we said,
you go up on that brake.

Whenever he starts
bringing one person in,

and you go on the brake.

If you go in
first or second,

if you watch him, too,
he gave you plenty of time.

Yeah. You go on your brake
and be ready.

J.J.: Who got the coin?

You got the coin?
Let me check it.

We'll let the young little
ugly guy call it

since he young and ugly.

Take heads.
Heads.

[ coin clinks ]

it's heads.
What lane do you want?

We'll take right lane.

When you want to go in?
Second.

Second. You're going in first,
you're going in second.

Y'all be safe.

Brent: He wins the coin toss.
He takes the right line.

Well, they already had
the right lane a while ago.

Being in this deal last year,

I tell you, they need to start
trying the other line.

'cause the other team
gets to swap on you,

he's not gonna
handle that in the left.

So now my guys
know automatically,

throw them in the left lane.

J.J.: This white car fast.
We raced that car.

Would have thought they had
more for us than this.

That's two.

Hey, man, good run.
Good run.

Got us a cushion now.

I'm gonna tell you what.
So far, so good.

You done a good job,
captain.

Brent: We got two wins
right now. You know, 2-0.

You can't get the big head
and let it go to your head

and mess you all up.

You got to stay levelheaded
and race under pressure.

The pressure ain't on us
right now.

We're sitting in the cushion.
The pressure's on them.

Byron comes up now
running chuck 55.

You know, so, hey,
he gets that right there,

we're going to be sitting good.

Oh, we're totally [bleep]

[bleep]
from what I just seen.

If I got to watch eight runs
like that, man,

I'll have a [bleep] stroke.

I ain't lying.
I ain't lying, man.

I'm gonna tell you all
something.

Black sheep mafia looking tough
right now,

but there's power to be made.

Running in the fords right now,
I'm watching 'em.

To me, it seemed
like brent self's strategy

for the black sheep mafia
was to put two

of his heavy hitters out first
and try to ride the wave.

Axman has a totally
different strategy.

He put two of for sure
a-to-b cars out first.

Now, axman is bringing
in his power.

He's bringing out chuck.

They call him the chuck 55,
but he's in a camaro tonight.

We're about to find out
if axman's strategy
is going to work.

And it's a lot
of pressure on him.

If team virginia goes down 3-0,
it could be ugly for him.

These guys are street racers.

We can't walk in here thinking
just because we got power,

we can outrun them.

Them guys are good.
It takes more than power.

It takes game.
Takes a little bit everything.

Team axman
called me up, said, "hey, man,

I need a hitter on
my team here."

he said, "can you make it
out to wyoming?"

I'm fixing to go up
and race byron.

I don't know much
about him,

but he's got
a good-looking nova.

Done some testing.

And I heard he made
some really good licks.

The team we got, black sheep
mafia, them guys are good.

So I'm going in first.

You are?
- You've already figured that out?

Yeah.
So, what do you recommend.

Don't move your car.

We're gonna stay a foot away
from that line.

Right.

Or even even more
is fine with me.

And make sure
it's the front end.

No front tire.
Make sure front end.

When he starts bringing
the other guy in, just leave.

I mean,
- you're gonna have to leave.

They're gonna sit on some,
but they're gonna leave too.

You got to keep in mind,
I mean...

If they leave, you're gonna have
to have a mindset to sit.

But I don't think
they're gonna leave.

J.J.: Chuck 55 out of oklahoma,
he's been around forever.

He fast and he got good sense.

He's a no prep racer,
but he loves street racing

because it's a different
kind of...

It's a different thrill.

-And you can see it
in his eyes.
-Oh, yeah.

I'm on high right now

if I can
keep it going for the team.

But he's a tough competitor.
He ain't no pushover.

But I don't want no pushover.

Axman and chuck went out on

Before I could even
get them locked in,

chuck took off, and byron
chased off after him,

And that was a huge win
for team virginia.

That puts it 2-1.

That puts axman team virginia 1,

Whoo! Got that monkey
off our back.

We couldn't go 3-0.

There we go. Yeah!

That was a real good pass
we made against byron.

The car felt really good.

It got a little bit loose
on the top end,

but I think this thing's gonna
come 'round.

More cars go down it,
we're just the third pair,

so I think the further
the night goes,

as long as it don't get too damp
or something like that,

I think it's gonna get better.

Just like you let out
of it.

I did one time, 'cause I
couldn't get around him.

It looked like you hung
right with him, huh?

Yeah, pretty close.
I turned it loose.

I couldn't get there.

I was coming off and I seen him

I'm like...

He was gonna
pull that on you.

He was gonna do

Mr. Axman,

I wasn't try to tell on you

he said, "it's 2-0."

he said,
- "what's wrong with axman?"

I said, "son,
they got two strategies.

Let me tell you.

they had on their two cars."

My name is david gates jr.
From junction city, arkansas.

I am racing axman
in the '67 axman car

and fixing to be 3-1
right now.

J.J.: Axman's racing twice
in the first round.

It's a whole lot getting two
cars ready in the first round

and to lead your team also.

And for this race,
axman is going to be driving

his '67 nova
with the chrome bumper.

We've seen first-hand axman made
an extremely fast pass out here

when we was grudge racing,
but that was in his '63 nova.

If he could win this race
it would tie the ballgame,

but he's never made a pass

in the '67 chevy ii nova
on this concrete road.

So it's a lot riding
on his shoulders.

made a name for himself

on the no prep racing
all over the country.

We've got a [bleep] hotrod.
[bleep] damn.

J.J.: On the track,
track race and street racing

is completely different.

On the track,
you have a light.

Plus, if you cross
the center line, you lose.

But in this race, it's back
to the old-school rules --

arm drop, chase is a race...

He was late!
He was late!

...There are no rules.

First to the finish line wins.

Jumping and sitting.

That's what played
- the biggest part of this race.

Racing is racing,
so axman's trying to prove

that he can race on the street.

I'm not going to sit here
and say I'm real street,

but I'm here to prove
that a no prep kings person

can set anybody on fire.

you racing the famous axman,

after we do that,

someone's got to cut
my battery on if I forget.

Byron went down ahead of me,

is better than what he thought.

one of the smartest moves

ahead again tonight.

But it went right so bad,

It ain't never went right, ever.
Not like that ever.

I could have probably --

to jump.

I just figured
it was going to go right a-to-b.

Nice racing.

Well, I certainly
do appreciate it.

Well,
that was anticipation

of running
that damn run out there.

Now I feel a lot better that
it's over with, win or lose,

but it sure feels better to win
than it does to lose.

And they've been
leaving early,

so I figured I'd try some
of what they was doing.

3-2.

I feel like they've kind of been
stealing the hit on us.

So, I mean, I wasn't going to
leave early early.

But I didn't want
to get left on.

So...

When I thought j.J. Was close
to his seven, I left,

and obviously
the other guy left too.

What lane did you go in?

They also been taking
the right lane every time,

and took
- that little advantage away,

if that's an advantage.

I don't know if one's
better than the other,

but now byron had it turned up,

and it may have been
just a little too much.

Did you see me?
Yeah.

it left good.

But I had to drive
the [bleep] out of it now.

It was...

We need to tone the horsepower
down just a little bit.

But if I hold
the steering wheel straight

all the way
through the pass,

I've done my job.

got to beat them all to win.

and that gives virginia the win.

Virginia takes a bye run and
their nitrous does not work.

Virginia probably would
not have got that win.

It kicked the rod,
blew the tire?

Oh, yeah.

Damn!
- Yeah, it was a bad one.

Lane choice ought to be
a [bleep] disaster here.

Ryan's car put oil all
over the street.

I'm gonna make sure
that I clean it up,

and it's safe for everyone.

But still, that puts
a lot of pressure

in the back of
the next racer's mind,

wondering, how good
a job did I do?

Chuck: We might get
that lane, so...Ehh.

Let them look.
See what they say.

As it is.

Does it look like
they got it up?

Y'all seen what happened?
- Yeah.

It's is virginia, axman,
and black sheep mafia

and brent self's business.

What do y'all
want to do?

This good for y'all?
I'm here to race.

I'll send doughboy
down it.

I'm here to race.

Let's do it.

Give me the next
two cars up here!

This ain't no car show!

We racin'!

Score 4-3, axman.

Brent self's black sheep mafia,
you got to do something.

If you want to step down,
we'll put kye kelley

leading them right now,
see if you can pull them out.

Axman: Ohh.
It's hard being leader.

I say we come back out,
right here.

Right now, we're down 3-4.

You know, we need dan to get
this win to get us tied back up.

Like I said in the beginning,
it's gonna be a dogfight.

Could have done this
a little bit different,

but, hey, that's part of it.
We all make mistakes.

We gonna get it
straightened back out, though.

Score 4-3.

Hey, if you [bleep] the bed,
you got to lay in it, right?

That's true.

So black sheep should have
the right lane then, right?

He might. Just hold on.

You call it.
- Alright.

Tails.

it's heads.

What lane you want, sir?

Left lane.
- Left lane.

When you want to go in?
Second.

Be safe, sir. Careful, buddy.

the driver in the filthy '55

has already raced tonight
for team virginia.

Now he's jumping in
his orange '57 to race.

Not to mention he's in the lane

where there was
oil just spilled,

so there's a lot
of pressure on him.

If they can get this win,
that will put them up two,

and it's gonna be hard
for black sheep mafia

to come back from that.

But if they lose, that's
gonna put it a tie ball game.

Anybody's race from there.

staying away from the line

so you can jump on him.

Kind of stay back so I could
see him jump, to be honest.

Axman's trying to
prove that his team

can go from track to the street.

He is one of the best
street racers out there.

But it could still
go either way.

And black sheep are
trying to prove

they are the real heavy
hitters from new orleans.

That was a huge win!

In these situations,
in these circumstances,

this is a bloodbath.

I flicked the nitrous

So, what are we gonna do
about order this time?

I mean, I'm happy
with the way things are.

I'm glad it's 4-4 and not 2-4.

It was just a few
rookie mistakes,

and I knew that was gonna
happen coming into this,

'cause, I mean, this is
a whole different atmosphere,

and they have the experience,

and I was a little
concerned about that,

but I knew the only way
you're ever gonna learn

is just step to the front
and give it a try

and learn from your mistakes.

What do y'all think?

The first round
was pretty tough.

We come out of the gate

We come out hard,
didn't we?

We got to get our

to jj we're 4-4.

I knew it would be
a dogfight. I knew it was.

What's black sheep mafia
list gonna --

who they gonna come
back out with?

You know, they
already scored 4-4.

Now, they got to go back
and they got to make a new list.

7. First one to 8 advances
and moves to the next round.

You know how it goes.

The good thing about the other
8 teams having to run first

is I can come out
here and watch them.

I can see who's fast, who ain't.

I can see kind of
their strategy.

Who runs first, what order.
It's just an advantage, really.

Both of these teams have
two strong cars

that I feel like
that can be deadly.

That's axman's two cars
and brent and the cab.

Listen, they probably gonna
win one, lose one, win one,

and then it's gonna be
down to their slower guys.

Who you think
is gonna win?

If brent self comes
out with the camaro,

the killer cab, and the mustang,
then he's in good shape,

long as he don't
let axman steal the hit.

There ain't that much
different in those cars.

I been waiting on a sit on
axman. I ain't seen it yet.

Somebody should.

When these two team leaders

was making their racing
lists for the first round,

they had two totally
different strategies.

Axman put his faster cars
in the middle and the end.

Brent took the black sheep mafia

and got his heaviest,
fastest cars out first.

This next list
that these leaders make

is make-it-or-break-it.

Nothing's more important
for their team.

If they make the wrong decision,

it's gonna cost them the race
and send them home.

The score is 4-4.
Every race counts.

The first one that wins 8

advances and goes to the next
round, and wins $20,000.

Second round coming out.

We'll start with
the killer cab and dwayne.

He started it
alright awhile ago.

Appreciate that.

We'll flip it
a little bit right here

we're gonna throw adam in there.

We've made a little bit
of a change of the tune,

and I think it's gonna handle
a bit better this time.

I'm gonna come behind adam.
Stan's gonna come behind me.

That's all we
need, baby.

And honestly,
I'm feeling that mustang.

I think that mustang's
gonna run.

Everybody that sees
that car here

says that [bleep] gets it.

Long as you don't
sit and wait too long.

Put me in as second and fourth.

Me third, brad fifth?

Yeah.

Byron's gonna come
in there after that

and then gates, david gates,
and russell stone.

So let's try to
knock it out.

They gonna swing for it.
I think any chance we get,

we need to take the left lane.

That oil in the right lane's
slick as a son of a bitch.

We have a faster
team, I believe,

but it could still
go either way.

Jason 7th. And this is it,

Every decision is critical,

and this is the prime example
that, the track and the street,

you have to have two
different kinds of mentality.

Paul left entirely too early,

and black sheep mafia
took advantage of it.

They was seasoned street racers

and they knew when to sit
and when to chase.

In street racing, you've got
to have good common sense.

There's a fine line between

making a dumb decision

one decision wrong,

and he's really fast.

I know where I have
to turn mine up.

In the street, it can handle it,
so I'm feeling very confident

in going into this round.

What I was telling -- I
tried to to tell my son.

I told him. I said, "what makes
it so bad on the axman?

He just come off of a jump,
so they've been watching him,

'cause he's been
- staying away from the line

so he can jump on them.

Brent and them's
done figured it out."

actually, that's
the reason I'm doing it.

I kind of stayed back
so I could see him jump,

to be honest.

That's your business.
That's your business.

There's a lot of tricks
and hustles in street racing,

and the guys
have figured it out.

They're staging before
the starting line.

That gives them a running jab at
it. They get to go a lot faster

before they hit
the starting line.

[ engines rev ]

plus, they can see the other
guy and see if he leaves.

They're trying to get
a hustle any way they can,

and this is one more time that
they figured something out.

If he keeps it clean
and we leave together,

it'll be a good race.
- Yeah. Right.

But there ain't no cleanness
in this kind of race.

Ain't no rules.
There ain't no rules.

If I had to pick someone
in the world to say,

"hey, that's gonna give me
your word and be clean,"

I respect this man
if he done that.

He gonna keep it
as clean as anybody.

But under these situations,

in these circumstances,
this is a bloodbath.

Them guys are good.
It takes more than power,

it takes game.

I'm a little bit not sure
about this arm drop.

If we can leave together, I feel
like he ain't got a chance.

Jj: If anybody knows anything
about street racing,

they know arm-drop
chases a race.

Tonight, every street racer
has taken advantage of it.

By the time I was coming off
the button, I seen him move,

and I said [bleep].

Jj: If you know you
can't outrun that guy,

then that's the time
to steal the hit.

Straight up, I'm jumping.

[ tires squeal ]

jj: But it could easily
backfire in your face.

Hey man, good run.

Adam is good for sitting,

so we can jump, but
we can't be late.

You better be ready for anything
when you pull up to that line.

[ engines rev ]

kye: Should have
sat on that one.

Jj: But under
these situations,

in these circumstances,
this is a bloodbath.

You're going against a grown
man right there, megatron.

I'm gonna do
what I need to do.

I think it's been
a drag race.

I feel like the whole world
is on my shoulders

for this one pass,
so I don't know --

if I take a loss, I don't
know how I'm gonna take it.

How old are you, sir?
If you don't mind me asking.

39.
- 39. How old are you?

How old are you, sir?
- 50.

Well, you lived a
rough life. You ugly.

We gonna let
you call it.

Heads.

[ clink ]

it's tails.

Alright.

What lane you want, sir?
I'll take right.

You got right lane. When
you want to go in, sir?

First or second?
- First.

First. Axman going
in second.

He got right lane.

This ends it
if you win, sir.

You've got black sheep mafia
riding on your back.

No problem.

I like the pressure of having,
you know, everything on me.

That don't bother me a bit.

Jj: Kye kelley. Would you
like to be axman right now?

What's gonna happen here, sir?

Axman gonna win?
He gonna beat megatron?

I love axman,
but I don't think so.

Megatron's gonna chase him?

If he chase him, he in
trouble, scott taylor.

If he chase him, he in trouble.

They a strong team.

They've done well,
they've prepared.

They want to be they
own self. They own face.

They gonna be the team
to look out for.

If axman wins, it
keeps virginia in the race.

If axman loses and stan wins,
that means black sheep mafia

wins $20,000, plus
a $4,500 side bet --

and not to mention, they're
going to the next round.

I knew we would get that win.
I knew he was gonna jump,

and I waited on him.

I knew if he would have

I think we still
without outran him,

but it would at least
have been a race.

I don't like doing what
I did, but, you know --

sometimes you got to
pay for what you do,

and he had to pay for it.

Brent: Good job, my friend.

I told them you ought
to go first round.

Jj: This time, both racers

take advantage
of everything they can.

They won't even come
to the starting line.

Both of them are staying back,

trying to get
every edge they can.

Before I could get
my arms dropped,

axman stole the hit and he left
out too early. It was a jump.

Axman's bumper crossed
the starting line

before my hands went
into a downward motion.

Stan sit, and his
car rolled a little bit,

but his car did not cross
the far line that I marked,

and that courtesy line
saved black sheep mafia.

That means they're moving
to the next round.

I basically told
him to his face

that the first time I stayed
back so I could watch.

So I said, "he's gonna think
I'm watching this time."

it was a very rough
experience for me,

but that's what I live for.

I live to be beat down and get
back up and fight stronger,

about 200 feet of altitude.

We come up here,
it's like 8,000 feet.

Just a couple
little, tiny changes,

and that big blower

are gonna make a solo pass,

because you can believe
he got his hands full

trying to get
that thing down this road.

Man: Right-hand lane,
cody baker.

Shake n bake camaro.

J.J.: Cody baker,
in that '69 blown camaro,

has been racing with texas
for a while

on the no-prep scene.

[ all cheering ]

man: Shake n bake all over
the tree right thee.

J.J.: But me, personally,

I haven't actually seen him
racing on the street.

I know I ain't seen him
and none of the arm drops.

It looks like he wants
a piece of the pie.

Whoo!
Oh, you can't beat that.

Nobody got nothing
for that.

That was cody!

Shake n bake!

That was fun.
- Hell yeah.

You know,
we don't have backup motors.

A lot of us
don't have backup motors.

So, I mean,
this is one of those deals

that we have to be smart about,

the passes that we make
and how we proceed forward.

We've got to worry about
the team that's in front of us,

which,
right now, that's california.

We didn't get to test much
before we came,

and I know we all needed data,
and I think coming out here

and all of us getting down
the very first time helps a lot,

because then we've got
something to build off of

for the next passes.

Rolled out that time, bro.
Oh, yeah.

Dude, I'm telling you,
it will take more.

It will
take a lot more.

Yeah. I want to see
the data on that one.

I mean, once it got
in [bleep] second down there

and it was building some rpm,
it started pulling.

But down low, it just --
it wants more.

Definitely better.

Oh, I know.
That thing just --

flying there, buddy.

Yeah, it wants more, too.

That's what I was telling ant.

Down low, it just --
I mean, the more we give it,

the better it's gonna
stick, I think.

Yeah.

Hell yeah.

It's been a long time coming.
Hey, we gonna see.

It's a long time coming.

You know it's a b-o-d-d-I-e
and it's b-o-g-g-I-e.

We gonna see which
one of these b-os --

how you get
the brick out --

'cause he come to the --
he come to the [bleep] street.

He come to the street.

I told him, "if I ever
catch you in the street,

I'm gonna bust your ass."

so you said if he ever
come to your front door,

you'd do that for him.

I'm gonna shake him down
and throw him around

like a pit bull.

But, see, here's the thing.

Here's what boddie got
an issue with, right?

He a street racer.

I'm a street racer,
but just not in honcho.

So now they brought honcho
to the street.

He don't think
honcho gonna work.

I'm gonna show him
something, take it.

Guess what this gonna do.
Gonna take it.

It's gonna cost him $10,000.
- Ooh!

Hey, look...
- I need 10%.

Hey, look...
- The 10.

When I take it and we leaving,
we vegas-bound, baby.

That's it.

Having your stuff together
and being confident

is one thing, but giving someone
the hit on the street --

that's a whole lot
or that's saying

he don't respect boogie's game.

Boddie got to be ready,

because you talking about
that $10,000

and giving some fool the hit.

You better know something.

But up next is mario
from wyoming and cody from utah.

You want to run?
Yeah, let's do it.

100 bucks?
Yeah, 100 bucks.

Alright.

You got a flagger?
I got a flagger.

I want left lane.

I'll take right.
- Alright.

Let's do it.

You ready now?
- Yeah.

J.J.: They both been talking
a lot of smack,

talking about how fast they are.

It should be a good race.

So far, so good for cody.
He won his first race.

It didn't work out
so good for mario.

He stood his car up
on the back wheels.

Then he lost his trunk
and he lost his money.

Now mario's trying
to get some get-back.

He think he got what it takes.

Both racers are grudging,

and they're trying to win
each and every race.

But what they really
trying to do is

get everything figured out

they can about the street
and the hot rod.

They know it's a lot of money
is up for grabs at this race.

We talking about six figures.

You're gonna be behind the car.
Get me in the groove, okay?

Who's dumping my water?

Joey lost 300 bucks

he got some get-back

freddy, how's
the sluice running?

It's looking
good, todd.

We're making gold.

Know what?

The buckland's open
for business.

Narrator:
In oregon, after a disastrous
first half of the season,

the hoffman crew has finally
struck gold at the buckland.

Todd:
This whole season's been
an absolute stress ball.

Hopefully, it finishes up
better than it started.

I have a pretty heavy weight
on my shoulders right now.

But I feel like we're
finally turning the corner.

These guys are
my family.

I just want to get gold
for these guys.

Last week,
they took a vital step

towards todd's 5,000-ounce,
$6 million goal --

a 52.6-ounce cleanup
worth over $60,000

from just two days running.

We dug this huge hole.

We finally found the gold
right over there,

right next
to the dredge track.

We're gonna go get
that gold there

and go right underneath
that dredge.

Narrator:
Two months ago,

todd leased the buckland
claim from marvin wirth.

Turin:
This is definitely
dredge track, isn't it?

Wirth: The dredge ran basically
the full length

of this spot
right up till here.

But no one's been in here
seriously since the '20s.

How do we know they didn't
just pick it clean?

I mean, these old guys
are pretty good.

I guess, to put it in
a nutshell, todd,

the dredge didn't make it
to the bottom.

There'll be gold
at the bottom.

100 years ago,
a dredge mined

a gold-rich pay streak
on the buckland.

The pay streak was so rich,
it produced 24,000 ounces,

worth $7 million
at today's value.

Todd's been told
there's a layer of main pay

at a depth
the dredge couldn't get to.

But before they go
under the old dredge path,

the men are mining
a small pocket of side pay

they hit last week.

Pierce: There's a narrow strip
of virgin pay.

And it's just outside
the dredge track.

And that's what
we're chasing.

The dredge came through here
and just hit crazy gold.

So whatever
they couldn't get,

we're hoping that
it's just as rich.

Finally get some gold,
finally get my mortgage covered.

Hiatt: Right now,
it's looking good.

And hopefully, they just
kind of keep going that way.

Todd, dave,
you guys got a copy?

I need to see you guys
down here in the cut.

Yeah, andy.
Go ahead. What's up?

It looks like
- the pay streak's running out.

Oh, crap.

Holy frick.

There's your pay.

It just
fricking disappeared.

Oh! No kidding.

It ends
right about here.

Turin: You think?

Spinks: I think so.

Realistically, you probably
got two feet of pay.

We just lost, probably,
over 60% of what we had.

That's it.
That's all we got.

From here up,
it's just crap.

There's no gold in this.

I guarantee it.

Narrator:
Andy has been excavating
a streak of side pay

running along the wall
of dredge tailings.

But it's dramatically reduced
in size to a tiny deposit.

Turin: Dig overburden
for three days.

And then haul pay
for one day.

It's not worth it.
- Mnh-mnh.

Okay.

From now on, we need to focus
on getting that main pay.

With the side pay
all but disappeared,

it's time for the hoffmans
to implement the master plan.

Todd:
If we can get into that bottom
of that dredge track,

I think we're gonna
turn this thing around.

I really do.

Narrator:
Last week, tony beets hauled in

a monster 532 ounces of gold,

worth over $600,000,

putting him three quarters
of the way

to hitting his 2,000-ounce,
$2.4 million goal.

Now, after
his biggest-ever weigh-in,

he's smelting
$1.25 million worth.

Last week, tony's tugboat,

kid commando,
was ruled unseaworthy,

leaving his new dredge

stranded 100 miles
upriver at thistle creek.

But now he can afford
to fix the problem.

The latest addition
to tony's viking fleet --

a twin-engine,
60-foot-long power barge.

[ truck horn honks ]

no, I'm a young
whippersnapper.

Needs some work.

You might want to change
the order of that,

'cause if you weld it
after you paint it,

you're gonna have
to paint it again.

I know.

Narrator:
The barge has been sitting
in a yard for 30 years.

And it's never
been deployed.

The 60,000-pound colossus...

...Is split
in three giant sections.

Once the convoy,
with its 15,000-pound cargo,

leaves the highway,

it faces a 5-mile climb
to paradise hill.

Mike:
She's spinning out!

Can't hold it.
- She's spinning back down.

Once they start spinning,
then I lose traction.

And once I lose traction,

I'm just gonna keep spinning
and digging a hole.

Narrator: Less than a mile
from paradise hill,

mike beets' truck has spun out
on a 30% gradient.

[ truck horn honks ]

the solution -- tony's military
eight-wheel drive,

off-road truck, the oshkosh.

That, I do.

I like it when things
go nice.

Ness: We're already
starting so late.

I need to get going
down here.

Narrator:
It's a big day

for parker schnabel's
foreman, rick ness.

Lost crew for a while.

Thought it was dead
for a while.

Finally got to start
back up at indian river.

Three weeks ago,
parker commandeered

the indian river rock trucks,
leaving rick's claim idle.

Now parker's returned them.

And rick can finish
what he started --

produce 1,000 ounces
from their second mine

towards parker's 4,000-ounce,
$4.8 million goal.

I think we still might have
enough time in the season

to pull 1,000 ounces
out of indian river.

But we're -- we're really
gonna be up against it.

Five miles east,
at scribner creek,

parker is under pressure.

Halfway through the season,

he's only a quarter way
to his goal.

You've got
to be kidding me.

Oh, who designed
this [bleep] joke?

Cut the power.

And now he's got a problem
with his wash plant.

This is
[bleep] disgusting.

And this...

Rocks are falling
into the riffles,

preventing the gold from
settling into the miners moss.

The amount of [bleep]
boulders in here...

You spend a [bleep] fortune
on a wash plant,

and you can't even
run the [bleep] thing

without getting buried.

It'll be a wonder if there's
any [bleep] gold in here

if no dirt's making it
down in the sluice box.

Leave me
the [bleep] alone.

At indian river,
rick and brennan are busy

trying to get their cut
down to pay dirt.

I'm going to do my damnedest
to make this a success.

But, you know, it's --

it's just becoming harder
and harder as we lose time.

Ruault: I know it means
a lot for rick

to succeed down here
in indian river.

But I know that he really
wants to make a go of it

and prove to parker,
like, you know,

"I can do this
on my own."

parker:
I'm [bleep] annoyed.

I don't understand

why people don't look
at the sluice runs.

And they see rocks
- half the size of your fist

rolling down them
- and realize there's a problem.

Look at the
[bleep] runs, right?

So I need you
to deal with it.

So something in the bottom
deck's missing, probably.

I'm assuming.
- Okay.

Um...Okay.

You look sad.

Ness: Parker just
yelled at me.

There's issues
at the wash plant and...

But he was kind of
half-ass blaming me

for not noticing big rocks
in the sluice box.

And the thing
that I forgot to --

that I failed to think
of right away was,

"he's the [bleep] one
that's been working
on that bottom deck.

Why the hell does it
keep failing?"

yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Okay, homey.

All right.
- Well, I better get going.

I know full well that
it's my responsibility

to keep scribner
running efficiently.

But it's in his benefit

for me to get indian river
up and running.

You know what I mean?
It's --

that's more gold
for our operation.

I didn't expect him
to be pulling me

out of there
for [bleep] like this.

Narrator:
Wash plant fixes are a job
for mechanic mitch blaschke,

but he's away
on his honeymoon.

So foreman rick must deal
with the breakdown.

What the [bleep]?

That's why
it didn't stay in.

Come on.

Parker and jordan have
been kind of moving

these screens around
as they wear out

'cause they're wearing out
more in some spots.

But the thing you can't do
is you can't take a side one

and try to pop it
in the middle like that

because it doesn't have, uh,
the proper clips on the bottom.

These go into a hole.

When the pin comes through,
it bends them out.

And that's what holds them in.

Narrator:
The screen decks are made up
of removable panels.

The center panels
have clips attached

which slot into sockets.

Pegs then secure the clips
in the sockets.

But parker has been
using panels without clips.

They've become loose,
creating gaps

and allowing rocks to slip down
into the riffles,

where they disturb
the water flow

and cause the gold to wash out.

We've got some
block-out pads

that usually we put
at the very top
to take the abuse.

Only problem with them

is, obviously, no materials
gonna go through that.

But it's gonna plug
our hole for now,

till we get
the right screens.

It's got the proper clips
on the bottom.

[bleep], [bleep].

I just hammered
my [bleep] finger.

So this is a first.
Tasting blood, now.

This is definitely
something that mitch

would be up to
if he was here.

But he is not,
so it's up to me.

All right.
That's right on.

Okay.
Firing it up.

[ motor starts ]

how'd it go?

It's good now.

Just another day
in paradise, rick.

Yippee.
- Yippee.

Narrator:
The third and final section
of tony beets' power barge

arrives at paradise hill.

He's banking on this beast
to haul his new dredge

down the yukon river
from thistle creek.

Tony's always going
100 miles an hour.

But today,
he's in an extra rush.

Tony entrusts the job
of hoisting the 15,000-pound bow

to his kids,
monica and mike,

and a pair
of ancient loaders.

Tony: Good.

Monica: Stop! Stop!

[bleep]

narrator:
Now tony and his crew

can put the 60,000-pound
monster back together.

Mike: Just a hair.

Narrator:
Tony beets' crew has
a further 300 feet of welding

and some serious restoration
on the motors

before his new power barge
will be seaworthy.

Ness: Too much for me
to do at scribner, here.

I'm out here this morning
doing tailings

'cause there's just
nobody else to do it.

At parker's scribner creek
claim, the tailings

are building up to the point

they're nearly
hitting the conveyor.

Even though he's been tasked

with getting 1,000 ounces
from indian river,

foreman rick ness

is still responsible
for running both claims.

I can't walk away
from scribner creek.

It's got to keep
- chugging along 24 hours a day.
