01x19 - Hot Dogster

Post by bunniefuu »

How you doing, monster fans?

Jesse James is going to the door.

And he brought the boys from New

York City to get the chapter.

Yeah.

And they don't k*ll around.

Right, fireman in the

child, I'm going to k*ll it.

So grab a hot dog, put it on

the fire, and slam it home.

It's a monster, Grat's barbecue.

Hey, you talking to me?

Join us now, as Jesse and

his g*ng of never-for-canics,

written grind and burn, transforming

ordinary street vehicles

into monster machines

in the monster garage.

This week's challenge,

turn a 2003 New York City hot dog cart

into a hell on wheels, monster dragster.

Can it be done?

Forget about it.

The rules.

When built, the monster machine

must appear to be stock.

The team can spend no more than

3,000 greenbacks for parts.

Jesse and his crew have

seven days in nights.

On the first day, they design.

For the next five, they build.

And on the seventh day, they race.

If successful, each team member

takes home a $3,400 set of mac tools.

And the clock starts now.

Guess driver, New York hot dog

cart king, Louis D. Romando,

hoofs his latest model into the garage.

This little steamer is

about to turn top fuel.

Jesse's hand-selected design

team make their entrance.

It's day two in the monster garage.

That's right, day two.

Because on day one,

Jesse played hokey and

raised in the celebrity

long beach grand-free.

Jesse got his maximum, but finished

second to a so-flopper star.

Young in the restless

versus monster garage.

He said, I knew it was coming and

I didn't just didn't know when.

The price paid for

Jesse's play hard work.

For the first time

ever, design day and day

one in the garage are

both one and the same.

We take something that is

perceived as really, really slow.

Make it ungodly fast and scary.

It's going to be able to cook

the hot dogs boil a steamer,

so we need to propane tank there.

We need storage for the product.

Louis D. Romando knows what it

takes to serve a good hot dog.

Monato?

We got it all.

Mustard ketchup.

Sao crowd?

Chili?

What do you have?

I started as a vendor 30 years ago.

He's gone from fixing frankfitters

to fabricating more carts than anyone

in the world.

When it comes to hot dog cart,

you name it, we can do it.

You dream it, we'll build it.

I hope.

The people think of me

as the hot dog cart king.

So basically we're going to use

the whole car around this car.

Exactly.

You know, keep the cart

as a functional unit.

Stick a good chassis around it

and stick a big motor in it.

The hot dog cart.

That was the easy part.

Who in the world has a dragster chassis?

They want a part with it.

I got a whole dragster chassis with me.

Frlie.

His legs shot?

Yep.

1966 would've k*lled more.

I would've loved it.

It just got easy!

Jesse's offered up, his sixties

dragster chassis called Mr. Seav.

Currently, it decorates

the ceiling of his shop,

but the time has come to

sacrifice it to the garage.

See, we hack up that car.

I'll piss people off.

This is a famous fueler because

I still get letters every

day from hersclubs that are

pissed because we messed up that

herswebot for two grand.

No, what?

I would be person with a hot knock heart.

My dismay.

The co-creator of Mad Machines

is the right man for this job.

I really like the challenge of taking

anything, seeing if I can tweak it.

I just grew up loving

the power and the freedom

of torque and the possibilities of design

and something different, something new,

something that people freak out on.

You know, if you think

people are going to

be pissed, we'll just

do a really good job.

We're going to go real fast.

We're still going to sit over the ground.

Should it make it a tribute?

Just he's donating the dragster, but

where are they going to cook the dogs?

I'm still just trying to

figure out how I want to put

the cart and keeping it

intact as much as possible.

What if we section that

and build all that stuff in

and have this stuff basically

swing open like this

and have all your stuff in there,

so services from the front.

Then visually we're not

seeing the hot dog cart.

I want to see a hot dog cart go 200.

I want to see it in the air.

I want to see it skid and

throw sparks off the back end,

hang it way off the back,

sit down in here somewhere,

and then keep the long wheelbase.

These wheels are going

to touch the ground?

I hope so.

I want to point it up.

Yeah, I hope them some b*tches break off.

Bam!

The last sparks.

It's a real wheelbase to be found, but

packaging it isn't really realistic.

Why not?

When you engage the dry, really

dangerous to drive it, but no big deal.

Not for Jesse.

Jesse signs off on the design.

It's time to build a hell

on wheels hot dog cart.

Not on the catch-up.

That's the three elements.

Hot dogs, wheelies,

and 130 miles an hour.

There you go.

The plan is to give fast

food some bad attitude.

The recipe?

Skinda classic drag rail down

to its steel tubing frame.

Then build an entire dragster

and hot dog cart around it.

Two hours later, the build

team enters the monster garage.

There are a culinary quest

and nothing can stop them.

Except for lunch.

West Coast chopper, Jesse James,

leads his East Coast crew.

First up, Mr. Mechanic Tom

Batar from West NIAC, New York.

The Big Apple Steve Bungie

brings classic custom skills.

New York City's renowned wretcher,

Indian Larry, joins the team.

In from Philly, is

automatic Dan Farazano.

And staying on to build is custom

fabricator Dave Tucci from Marcy, New York.

So you guys know what the plan is?

We're going to make this the

world's fastest hot dog cart.

I don't really need to run down anything.

It's kind of self-explanatory.

The crew followed Jesse's trail of

birth rubber to West Coast choppers.

They get their first look at Jesse's

prized old school slingshot dragster.

I think I've got to go up there

and pull the dragster back.

You guys have to jump to your goal.

Go most, you mean most, this is a

take to take a dragster up to ceiling.

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.

That only down, only

down. I pull it back.

All right, let's do it.

Yeah, I'm open, right?

I actually hung it for an actuar, right?

The team brings the

dead dragster into the

garage, where it will

be brought back to life.

I don't know, as looks right now,

the hot dog cart would win the race.

Well, it's hot all the tin off it, and

look and see what we got to work with.

Get that one.

Jesse tried the dragster on for size.

Oh, I could get it.

I'm cool.

Okay, you want to shorten

his damn thing, Jesse?

Yeah.

All right, I much want to take out.

Thank you.

Oh, you're in 20 inches.

Yeah, but then we've got

to do something more.

We can show him this, big deal.

What's your leg for five minutes?

Which would be here.

I like to do it, right, to where

it's really grazed up good.

We need to look at that.

See if that's going to look cool.

That's the most important thing.

Put a wheel, let's pull

the wheel up to it.

Get a rear wheel, we

don't get a front wheel.

Yeah, that's cool.

It looks cool, but what's the point?

It makes it more narrowly,

the shorter it is.

We're getting sideways.

It's a real short car,

so all of this is tough.

They're going down the track.

Literally fine went to the front short.

And almost uncontrollable.

But I think it would be a

little bit more spectacular.

Cover your eyes, kids,

because this classic trackster

is about to be violated.

Oh, this is so sacrily.

This is a good car.

I want to play.

I'm not here to save the world.

I'm scared to have as much

fun as I possibly can.

Jesse knows the score,

but dance in denial.

We're really not really

chopping it, chopping it up.

We're really not chopping it up.

We're really not.

It's not being chopped.

Cut this one up here like this.

Cut this one up here.

We are actually chopping this thing up.

With the old cars, I've cut the pieces.

That's Nick.

It's going to lead.

It's just going home.

We're ready, go up.

Louis can't stomach the

sight of his figure cars.

But there's no time for mourning.

There's a monster to make.

They're fire.

We're doing it.

We're going to bend it down so that

we can get it ready to mount the foot

for the old cross section.

The tubes are bent.

Cut clamp down and weld it strong.

The boys carefully

reconnect the front end.

A minor offset could be

a major steering problem.

I have five in the name.

More or less.

It has to be strong.

When you come down, especially at

speed, your front end snaps off.

It goes into the ground.

You're done for.

The front dialed in time

to get the back on track.

I think our main concern

is cut the wells out of it.

Get the mount structure out of there.

And then we can build a

beefed up structure for it.

Larry traces out a well

for the wheel to spin.

Then puts the nibler to work on

the quilted aluminum cart body.

We can do this.

We can do this.

Good job.

We're done now.

Stop.

Let's go.

That's it.

Out of the door.

The wheel fits on the sitting

dragster but it tops speeds.

A drags slick tire will expand

beyond its resting state.

You got a trim it.

Two inches to go forward.

Plus three inches for the tire expansion

because you have six inch growth.

I think you got the weight

for the tires in here.

You can do those, we can still make

We can still make the frame,

we can still make the frame.

While they wait for tires, the

crew strengthens the hot dog cart,

so it can withstand the

strained at high speed.

But it real dent in it today, and

we're just going to keep going.

Failure's not an option.

On their first day in the garage,

they cut up a classic dragster and

destroyed a brand new hot dog cart.

It's a good start, but

destruction is easy.

Tomorrow they build.

Day three starts with a parade of parts.

This is set of dragster wheels.

Slices in a fuel tank.

Right.

There's some rubber happening.

Power pack packages arrive from

Jacks, it's just the right price.

We're pretty excited now.

Get to the power-making stuff.

That's right.

Wonder what's in his box?

Power-play.

Look at that, boys.

It's Christmas time.

This will make some box in it.

With a 502 cubic inch big block Chevy,

this hot dog cart should cook.

Yo boys, that's more stuff.

A Power-Glide transmission rolls in.

We're broke.

Look at all this.

Hell it is.

Front wheels.

Rear slicks.

Gas tank.

Transmission.

The monster's register is lung out,

leaving the team only

pocket change for parts.

The front wheels are a cinch.

So it looks good.

But the rear slicks are questionable.

Larry calls Mickey Thompson

to find out just how much

the tires will expand.

They just need to know the

maximum of diameter expansion

on these tires.

Okay.

We'll call you back.

We have to bug you.

Green and a half to four inches.

It's a minimal growth tire.

So we can cut this.

And we should be fine.

A few inches are no problem.

They pop the back off and

expand the wheel wells.

With years of b*tch and

cars under their belts,

Steven Larry know their

way around an engine.

But something about

this shiny new big block

just doesn't feel right.

I'm using the work.

I'm going to suck with

stuff just cops right off.

You know, usually rusted on it.

But on it, 35 years of sudden.

I really don't like getting a new thing.

But on something like this, you

really need to do the new thing.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Come on.

Indian Larry is more than

just another bad boy biker.

He's a street wise sage,

roaring into the garage with a

head full of homemade philosophy.

And it's written in ink.

See, over here, University of health.

91 and 94.

I had to go back twice.

No.

A lot of hard work to

get that out of for him.

He's a sinner and a saint.

True believer.

When I'm on the bike, no

matter what I'm thinking,

what kind of crap is going

on in my head or anything.

I just pretty much feel at home.

You know, I think he's like

a cliche like at one with

universe.

But then I feel like, okay,

this is where I was meant to do.

The boys break out their new

power glide transmission.

But a quick look at this super

shifter is caused for concern.

This fits the rear end.

This is a real dragster coupling.

It ain't going to work.

There's no way we can

host this up to this.

In a typical dragster,

the transmission locks

directly into the rear end.

By mating the rear coupler

and transmission splines.

Unfortunately, these parts don't fit.

The solution is simple by a new coupler.

Only one problem.

We're out of money.

That money, dude.

Steve calls in a favor

from his buddy Jerry,

a fellow member of the beat-nix car club.

Exactly. The old dragster coupling.

All right, thanks, Chair.

But we can show it to him. He

might be able to lift something up.

The road warriors had off

to solve a coupler problem.

Dan has to miss you's of his own.

It's one piece in the

puzzle, but we couldn't maybe

left that for a little bit later on.

This coupling is even more

important than anything.

Without this, you're not going

to know nothing's happening.

Without this, we've got

to get this together.

All those files will take

you out of the same car.

Exactly what we need it.

Let's put it fixed with going.

These veteran gear heads

don't sweat deadlines.

I mean, it's nothing worrying, though.

We're either going to go in or not.

They've been nervous as

a single day in my life.

Question is that.

Confident and crazy.

Steve Banji might be old school,

but he's always been cool.

They're building custom

motorcycles and cars

since probably the mid 70s.

It's kind of like the original cool.

Looking back on the old days.

Man, he's the coolest man.

He's got that whole cool factor down.

He's had it down since,

like, you know, the 60s.

I'm into the nostalgia thing.

So everything is usually a 50s

or early 60s file custom done

in that styling.

I just come across them and

like them and take them in.

I don't know, I guess they choose me.

It's 48 in each of them.

Just got them restored.

I mean, things motorcycles

that always has been.

I remember the New York City.

Hell's Angels.

I'm into the custom bikes,

building bikes, riding bikes,

old, on course, country trips.

Jessie called me and said,

you're the first guy I thought of

when I thought of this project.

The terrible to some

arrive at Jerry's place.

What was on there?

Yeah.

I could make a call on you.

Get the Edmonton.

Jerry's got everything.

These are all the same.

I'm from the 350.

We're going to stick

this in a transmission.

Stick this in a rear end.

Coupled up like that.

Jerry didn't have the exact coupler,

but they found a solution

that should work.

They'll join the transmission and

the rear end with opposing yolks.

Connected with a U-joint.

Indian Larry spots another freebie.

A radiator.

Let's take a boat.

We have the option.

All right.

Let's take it in return.

Yeah.

All right.

I'll see you later off.

Let me out again.

The transmission bolts onto the engine.

No problem.

They're ready for Steven Larry to return,

so they can connect the rear end.

Dave keeps busy and

saves some cash by hand

crafting a brake lever.

That's the grip brake.

Here's a lot of grip.

Hold that.

Very simple.

Dave 2G custom fabricates

cars into dream machines.

I love getting up every

morning and going.

Creating stuff being, you know,

taking something that's from nothing

and making it into something that's just

cool.

We got about 5,000 hours

into this car along.

Not easily impressed.

Jesse is totally taken

with Dave's handy work.

Hey, man, what are you doing?

Put it got the throttle

body thing on it or no.

No, just a carburetor.

What chassis is on it?

Mine.

It's like a 37 side rails and

that's all two have been a center.

Oh, looks cool.

Awesome.

I like it.

Took a 35 grille slice that laid it back.

Harley V-rod headlights.

That was the area.

We made the one body out of it.

And then that was at

the mold was destroyed.

Yeah, that's kind of cool.

So it's got juice on it, man.

It's a bad little.

What do you want to trade for it?

The salvage brothers

return with their loot.

Hey.

You guys have done it.

You guys have finished?

All right.

Here's what we got.

We're ready to rock them all here, man.

Hopefully we could get this in here

and maybe get the motor into nice.

We have to motor in tonight.

We could start at the moment.

I don't plan on leaving to the

engines in the chassis tonight.

That's me.

How's that sound, you guys?

You did it, man.

That's the crucial.

Yeah.

So that's crazy tonight.

The power unit is carefully

lowered into place.

Look at that, a lawn.

Okay.

That's a lock it in.

What is the case?

Let's go.

It's time to see if the hot doggers

you join will cut the mustard.

Gary knew exactly what this was.

He spotted a new exactly what

no crate to go to to find that.

There you go.

Rumble this way through it.

That is what we need it.

They make the connection.

It turns and the wheels turn.

I don't know how much it's done.

Look at it.

That's a good sign.

The drive lines connected, but it must

be level and in line to maximize power.

This was must look at Roger.

I think that when it's on precise.

Yeah.

I saw a protractor once.

We're about two degrees.

That's related.

That's it?

It's 10 30 PM on day three.

But this team is determined

to get their motor mounted.

There's a front motor mount.

They're going to kind of want more

of them and watch out to be done.

I'm only doing two and

then the trans crossmember.

Not in there.

Not what I mean.

The motor is bolted down.

But these builders aren't done yet.

They drive fit the supercharger

and a dual quad carburetor setup.

Pairing Twin Holley 750 CFM for barrels.

An air scoop.

The top at all.

And it's a thing of beauty.

But it's still too early to celebrate.

People always get confident

the first and second day.

Oh yeah, we got this all in.

But it's a lot to do here.

Don't kid yourself.

On day three, the parts came in.

The money went out and the team moved on.

The cart is mocked in place.

But they're a long way from

cooking dogs on the quarter mile.

Months to garage fact

going in the early 1930s.

Dragster speeds first

topped 100 miles per hour.

Today a top fuel dragster can

reach speeds of 320 miles an hour.

The crew marches in on day four.

Focused and ready to work.

First thing we got to tell you

guys not to bother us today.

No problem.

Better talk to Dan because he's

still not buying the crew's plan

for mounting the engine.

Why don't you make the plate for here?

Dave says we don't need it.

We're holding our hand up.

Yeah, you could be cutting

that and be done deal.

Dan gets his way.

And the crew gets to work.

Quick candy works solves the problem.

But Tom's got the job that blows.

I got the blow we're all ready.

And with any luck and

a little come together.

Got air coming in through

the scoop, which is here.

That goes on top like this.

There's going to get

sucked in by the blower.

Fuel dumps through the center.

As it goes, more throttle.

More fuel.

Faster to fuel and air goes.

Faster to the blower goes.

Faster to our PM goes.

More horsepower.

We're just going to fire it up and go.

And it's monster garage.

Tom Beatar came to monster garage on

the verge of a lifetime challenge.

We're going to deal a ship since I've been

17, 32 at the top, top, top, pay, top,

level, top everything.

Just not enough anymore.

He's making the big jump

opening his own shop.

I know it's going to be tough.

I'll be working for myself.

The hot dogners flipped the

frame to check for strength.

That would be a week

point where I could break.

That's why I'm circling

it with this salt stone.

So we spot it and get it welded up.

Old welds are re welded.

And new tubing goes in to add

strength to the old frame.

Just try to tighten up the

front end a little bit more.

Once we're going to go on this side here.

And once they get this one trimmed up,

you don't want to go on this side here.

Philadelphia, native Dan Farazano was

raised in his father's repair shop.

This car here is the car that

actually started everything.

There's a mom's car,

father's son's project.

As you can see, emotional

because of my father.

Dan spent his whole life

filling his dad's shoes.

I've been there over

20 years and 20 years.

I've always been on five vacations.

So it's like just don't

like leaving my business.

Speaker to make an any

chassis is rigid as possible.

It's to have as many

diagonal pieces in it.

So this is helping this for moving

that way along with this, helping it.

So by being diagonal,

they both help each other.

Jesse's back, wrapped in ready.

This monster needs some

pipes to make it grow.

Sausages, sitting those head bolts.

He comes on Don when he takes a look

at the team's makeshift coupler.

No, it's pretty funky,

but it's still back there.

But since it's like

right between my legs.

We were stopped, that's all.

We had no money to do anything else.

So that's going to be the latest stuff

to get the engine back in the car, right?

We'll make do whatever it is it is.

We'll get it done.

We have to change everything.

That's a change training

mode, mid mode, and from home.

Can I get the piece?

Are we hit a little snag?

Snag on a fish in line.

All right, we're going to run that.

You joined set up.

I would never even get in it.

That's dumb.

If it broke, you know, it was

worried about taking out a vehicle.

I'm going to make a scatter

shield and stuff for it.

Because I got pretty legs.

And I don't want nothing

to happen to him.

The bottom is well done.

Time to flip it.

Some of the teams are

like all real bookworms,

and you can hear types.

You guys are really spout off.

You know, I'm pretty much alive.

You got to have me on there.

And all the set of stuff.

And they come on.

Totally inflow.

Do you understand what you piece of sh*t?

I'm exploiting.

It's guys like these that are my friends.

They're just down the work.

Even with this setback,

Jesse's down with this team.

The gas tank is in place.

And the steering is on course.

The crew has decided to go

ahead and put the engine in.

Despite needing a coupler.

We're going to dump the engine in now.

Set it in.

Do some plumbing.

Do some wiring.

As much as we can without the

other pieces that we need.

And we're just going to keep rolling.

We're rolling.

You got to space.

Come on.

You got to go a little higher, I think.

Good.

Easy.

Start letting it down a little bit.

And then we can glide it in.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Then we're going down.

We're right right there.

We're good.

The engines in place.

Tom's blower tops the power plant.

Put that seat in there.

We're going to get in there.

All right.

It feels all right.

Pretty cool, huh?

Can you see?

Yeah, the motor.

That's it.

I told you about the shifter.

It's got fast and fast.

That's it.

Yeah.

Jesse puts the finishing

touches on his pipes.

He set those under yet.

See if we got the angle.

We just got it in.

Like 10 minutes ago.

He stands back to enjoy

the fruits of his labor.

He's taking money.

I look right.

I can go.

He's ready.

We're looking.

We're just going to chew it up.

See if it'll start.

It's time to see if their monster will

run.

It's not how I wanted it.

But it's how it's getting done.

Yeah.

Get out of the way.

Don't crank.

It's not cranky.

We're just looking for anything.

He knows what he's doing.

The engine won't start.

And that's no laughing matter.

He's jumping.

You don't have to cool it.

We're not going to run.

You guys got a little bit of a blower.

He gets sealed in the back.

Hold on.

Wait.

Did you do this?

Did you do this?

No.

Just double tracking.

Just double tracking.

A great start.

And the team finishes day four.

Oh, they're not too length.

It's music, but not everything yet.

It's 40 days today.

I'm excited once he's down on the ground.

It's outside.

That's what I'm going to excited.

The build team makes a

big entrance on day five.

Jesse makes a bigger one.

Anybody can just walk in, right?

I drove this to remind myself.

I'm not scared of the dragster.

The tension is obviously getting

to these tattooed bad boys.

We're supposed to be at

each other's strokes.

It wasn't for me to

think we'd never get it.

Tom, what do we say to somebody?

Did we have a plan?

Lay it all in towards the end of the day.

You're going to have to steal cage match.

Yeah.

So we're doing it at

the end of the day, man.

Still cage match.

Stand up.

The plan comes together.

And everybody works together like a team.

It's just me and a drama.

What are going to crack?

It's usually when we have a

build with so much totally.

When there's a lot of fighting.

But all these guys know

what they're doing.

We're just like in sync here, man.

Nothing faces me.

I'm with Tom.

Somewhat.

You don't like him.

It's back to the business

of building monsters.

Jesse attacks the steering column.

See if it's safe.

Dave makes Jesse's legs.

This is his top priority.

This is the drive shaft tunnel.

And then this will slide right

over the top of the tail shaft.

That's transmission.

In case the tail shaft breaks off.

It'll stay inside here and roll around.

Not take a zanko up.

It's pretty much what

that's for, you know.

There's still one thing

on everyone's mind.

The main thing, again, is still

a problem with the coupling.

The coupler.

The coupler.

Tom walks in with the new coupler.

It's time to button down this monster.

Okay. Now essentially this is loose.

We can move this thing forward.

Once the couplers in,

hopefully that's it.

Got enough room for a coupler now then.

Oh, we'll see.

And then.

Okay.

Come on back.

That's such a mess.

There's spin this.

I can't.

Why?

Before they can reattach

the motor to the frame.

They need to cut out the

now useless engine mounts.

Here we go.

That's probably close.

I don't know that.

But I'm not the car of the jacks.

But I don't control the insertion.

It's coming.

We got it.

We got it.

That's in.

Yeah.

That's a lot.

That motor in.

We're making a nice nice.

Now we just want to get the car done.

The hot dog cart gets back to stock.

Dad wants to put the wheels back on.

First of all, it's staying to that.

Don't even use on the side.

So it really looks like hot dog cart.

I'd vote.

We mix in the wheels.

I still think the wheels we go on.

You miss the whole concept

of the whole thing.

Well, let's vote around.

It's not way flawed time on it.

Yes, no?

I'm sorry.

How many for yes?

I just think you should go on

to wish you missed the concept.

We're just voting.

How many for yes?

One?

I might say.

Or nose?

Okay.

No wheels.

The group is spoken.

No wheels for the car.

The team legs it out

at the end of day five.

Time to light it up.

Day six.

One by one.

The build team enters the garage.

This east coast squad is ready

to make our run for the buns.

Jesse wants his dragster to

really off the starting line.

Keep going.

The team wants to know how high.

That's good.

Get out of here.

Step through all of that.

Every wheelie needs a wheelie bar.

Dave's son gave him a great idea.

This is the fun of the

car that we cut off.

I made it shorter.

I was talking to my son Dominic.

He's ten years old.

He gave me the idea to use

this as the wheelie bar tubes.

Runs on a family.

Definitely.

He'll be on monster garage pretty soon.

He shapes the bar and

it's ready to mount.

We'll do it in training set.

Just out of here's good.

The engines roaring.

The wheels are spinning.

And the brakes are stopping.

The dragster is now locked.

Loaded and ready for action.

But that's only half the challenge.

Building really left is

doing a hot dog cart really.

We're folding in the propane tank.

Then we're going to run

the line for the burn.

Here we go.

We got hot dogs.

We got hot dogs.

Jesse prepares the monster's first meal.

No cards got to have hot dogs.

The dogs are heating up.

We got anywhere chilly.

Ready, hungry.

The engine blows weanies.

There are monsters of success.

It'll have room to stretch

out in the challenge.

This is how motor has lost weanies.

Peat Finland, monster garage

veteran, and pinstriping pro,

shows up to make the dog

cart ready for business.

This is how motor has lost weanies.

Okay, fans, the big swag here.

The welcome man is out for Jesse James.

And another monster garage challenge.

Stand up and salute because the race

is on at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway.

It is always on my right side.

Freaky one side.

And we are track side swag man.

Looking down a quarter mile

barrel of sizzling tar.

It's the hottest strip

show in the desert.

Where the pranias

dragsters get to flex their

muscles and lay it on the starting line.

We're talking top fuel,

pro stock, all of it g*n.

And they're speaking

my language, Frankie.

Oh, yeah.

And when it comes to monsters, Jesse

James speaks only one language.

That's right, Frankie. He's

a man of two words. Go fast.

And that's what this

monster is all about.

Feast your eyes on the hot lobster.

I like it. Well, what the hell is it?

It's a 1966 run engine swing

shot dragster that came

out of the garage monster

to a 2003 hot dog cart.

It's making my mouth

water, Frankie. The hot

duster who leaked your

lunch, then serve it to you.

Weanie.

It's weaner take all.

Jesse's going up against

the pride and joy of James.

The company that donated

the dogster's gnarly engine.

In your face, Jesse. What can you

tell us about the Jex Mobile Frankie?

Well, swag, it runs on the

pro stock car category.

They call it the Jex Mail

Order Chevy Cavalier.

Not a name to strike much fear.

It's all in the numbers, my friend.

The engine, 500 cubic inches of

ground shaking GM thick block.

Horsepower on the plus side of 1300.

Who's the dude?

That's the driver.

Jex Coffland Jr. He's a two-time

NHRA pro stock world champion.

Frankie does the hot dogs to stand the

taste against that yellow bumble piece.

A chance in hell, swag,

right where Jesse likes it.

While they're lining them up,

why don't you lay it out for us?

Frank's footer.

Okay, foot long. You've

heard of Eaton Run?

Well, this is run an eat.

A quarter mile drag followed by a hot

dog once for Junior's hungry Jex crew.

We won! We won!

The first one to link them

up gets the dog prize.

It's the monster's stand-out.

The alpha dog's ready.

We'll release the home!

Junior's putting the

monster on the dog's stand.

Check it out, swag. Jex won 97.74.

And Jesse's hot dog's there.

Oh, 139.98 miles per hour.

But there's another lap to this dog.

Jex likes it over to a roach coach

to collect his crew's weaners.

But he's playing catch-up. He's back

in the jax for the backbone delivery.

Too late, Jesse's already

making the pit stop.

And he's got the fuel.

Hot off the track, hot dogs and

buns for the hunger-praised crew.

Yeah!

Frankie, you're going to be kidding me!

And there's no bad feelings

between Jesse and Jex Copeland,

a true friend of monster garage.

Well, the fastest hot dog

in the car right here.

What more can you say, except

Jesse's got no time for bad dogs,

Missy Lakes, and dumb

questions from the producers.

So Jesse, after it's all done, why?

Hey, 5 to explain why.

You know, good luck at

home and garden tea.

You.

Hey, he's got me on the

burn. Sparks the fly,

the next monster garage challenge!

He's just around the back.

Alright, guys. Good job.

All right, Steve.

Just can't wait.

They're correct.

You're right.

She got some back to us for you.

Monster Groud CDs.

And listen to it on the

way back to the East Coast.

I'm done.

I'm done.
