Monster Garage (2002) s01e15 Episode Script
Snowmobile
OK, Monster Vance, the big swag here.
Oh, wait a minute.
We seem to be having a
problem with our signal.
Someone's trying to
take over our broadcast.
Wait a second.
That looks like Richard Petty.
Jesse.
You're in the guys at Monster Garage.
Why don't you get something together?
We'll get something together.
Come over and wild.
And then trace with him a little bit.
trace with him a little bit.
But you're disputing, King of Racing.
Richard Petty.
He broke right in.
He took all Jesse out.
How's he gonna take it?
I win.
Well, he won.
Flime out.
Or just lose it completely.
We'll temperature drop in fast.
Oh, Monster Plinsard is
about to hit the garage.
Grab the fence and
gather around the fire.
And listen to a tale.
Cut, Monster Garage.
Join us now as Jesse and his
gang of Maverick mechanics.
Rip, grind, and burn.
Transforming ordinary street
vehicles into Monster Machines
in the Monster Garage.
This week's challenge.
Take a 2003 mini Cooper and
turn it into a screening
trail biting Monster Snowmobile.
The rules.
When built, the Monster Machine
must appear to be stock.
The team can spend no more than
$3,000 in cold cash 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, they walk
away with a $3400 set of
factors, and the clock starts now.
Day one.
Jesse meshes the mini into the garage.
The design team comes in from the cold.
Before the design team gets started,
Jesse has a confession to make.
To have zero experience on snow.
They've been skiing, snowboarding.
It's cold thing.
Their first challenge.
Getting a track designed
for a 500-pound snowmobile
to push a 2500-pound car.
What do you think?
I mean, the snow will be a guy, so.
Well, we're limited to one track or two.
I think we're going to have to have two.
Just because the size of it.
How wide is that track?
This one's 15 inches wide.
So we need 35 inches
if we use two of them.
It'll be tight, but there's just enough
room under the mini for two tracks
side by side.
Next, they'll need to figure
out how to get power to them.
How fast we need to go?
Fast, fast.
I think the simplest way
to go is use the clutch,
dry line, transmission, everything
it'll drive just like a car.
But instead of driving front wheels,
we'll switch that to the back to
drive the tracks on each side.
A drive train will
connect the dual track.
To the mini's engine.
This monster machine also
has to drive like a car.
For that, they'll need a way to raise
and lower the snowmobile tracks.
I've got a couple ideas for that.
We could use a high pedal.
It says to push this down to the ground.
Lift the weight of the vehicle up.
Rick's Souls is a paint and
body training manager for
many of North America.
It was a little bit of a surprise
to me that many would allow
monster grounds to take this vehicle.
I mean, cut it up and morph
it into this snowmobile.
He's also a lifelong car customizer.
If it had wheels, then I had one.
I wanted to raise somebody
that had another one.
Under the front end,
they consider adding skis
to both steer the mini
snowmobile and to keep it
from sinking into the snow.
What do we make a ski that
allows the wheel to just
hang below it?
Matt Loub is a product manager
for Polaris snowmobile.
He's also a two-time world
champion hill climber.
Think of a downhill-solum
steer going through the gates.
We go up the same mountain
through the gates.
There is a downhill
element to hill climbing
and that's when the fun really begins.
The skis could be mounted to
the mini's front suspension.
It'd be kind of cool if these
things folded up and actually
landed into the running board.
Rafael Zemit is a senior car
designer for general motors.
The mini is all about customization.
It's all about attitude.
This is a car that's begging for this.
The final design.
Two retractable snowmobile
tracks will be mounted to the
mini's underside powered
by a drive train connected
to the mini's front wheel drive engine.
Skis that ride just above
the front tires will be
connected to the front suspension arm.
Day two, the build
team enters the garage.
Jack Nickerson is an ace welder
and builder of custom hot rods
and speedboats.
Hector Orlando heals from Puerto
Rico via Sagan on Michigan
where he builds something
he calls no planes.
For Brady Cameron, there's no
business like snow business.
He's the head mechanic
for Tyson snowmobile's.
Two design team members are
staying on for the build.
Rick's souls from Wall Crow, New
York and Matt Lou from Buffalo,
Minnesota.
Jesse wastes no time and rips
the wrapping off his new present.
We've got a really big story this guy.
A 2003 mini Cooper.
Thanks to mini USA, this is
the first brand new car to come
straight from the
factory into the garage.
But this one's not done yet.
Somewhere inside it's
sporty compact frame.
There's a monster snowmobile
that needs to come out.
All right, guys.
Work time.
So we designed this thing.
We kind of came up with this
roob gold bird contraption.
The design calls for the mini's
Peppy 115 horsepower engine
to power both the car wheels
and the snowmobile tracks.
But Jesse thinks that might
max out his little mini.
The more I thought about it, you
know, you brought up a good point
that the Polaris motor makes
more power than the mini motor.
So we should keep it two
separate vehicles in one.
Jesse knows how to make a monster.
Let the mini keep its motor.
And muscle in two macho
Polaris nomobile engines.
One for each track.
When this abominable
snowmobile hits the trail,
it will have a snow
scorching 300 horsepower
to pulverize the powder for things
for it to take the same part.
The team sinks their teeth
into the brand new mini Cooper.
Are there a full training one?
Jesse's design chain sends our
snowmobile expert max scrambling.
He'll need to scrounge up two
complete snowmobile engines
with all the fixings by tomorrow.
The twisted pleasure of
tearing into a brand new mini
inspires Hector de Song.
An operatic piece of his own.
He calls O to destruction.
The easy part is done.
The interior is now exterior.
It gets harder when they start
cutting into the mini's underbelly,
especially for Rick, the
rep from many headquarters
who hates to see anything go.
That's cross-member.
This is holding the
wheels on this vehicle.
Here.
This is all I'm going to show you here.
That's going to be a problem.
I think we should just ditch it.
Rick and his precious mini
are in for a rough time.
Nothing secret to Mr. Slash and Burn.
You gotta get your mindset
in the monster garage mode.
All that engineering I'm
just going to go play.
I'm going to throw out with the torch.
The plan is to cut out a section of
the floor to make room for the tracks.
The mini has a unibody construction,
meaning the structural supports
are built into the body parts.
If Jesse cuts out too much,
the entire car could go laps.
Rick starts to worry if his mini
can handle all this hacking.
I think he likes to cut, you know.
It's not necessary.
That cross-member holds the
S into that part together.
I'm going to have my own fellow.
My way must be a little
too conservative, you know.
For his part, Jesse isn't too concerned.
It should be all right.
Matt and Brady, the
team's snowmobile experts,
no two things.
One, how to build snowmobiles.
And two, the team is counting on
them because no one else has a clue.
Polaris has given them everything
they need to make it happen.
They'll start with the tracks.
But these tracks are going to have
to be unlike anything ever seen
on a snowmobile.
A stock snowmobile
track is 18 inches high.
To fit under the mini, they've
got to cut that almost in half.
Matt's plan is to toss
out the suspension arms
and attach the drive shaft
directly to the rails.
But there's no way the stock aluminum
rails can support five times more weight
than they were designed for.
They're going to have to fabricate
new rails out of 38 inch steel plate.
The team needs to come
up with some kind of
gizmo that will break
each track separately,
allowing the mini to steer like a tank.
Their monsters' snowbrakes
need someone with imagination.
Someone who can improvise.
Someone who can say.
Hector Orlando has been into monsters long
before they got their own hit TV series.
He builds snowplanes.
A simple, fast and potentially
fatal slice of frigid fun.
Take a car, put a planer jet
engine on it and hit the ice.
It gives him and his neighbors
something to do during the long winters
in his hometown of Sagan, on Michigan.
Good stuff.
If he can survive snowplanes,
Jerry rigging some brakes
for a mini snowmobile
should be no problem.
Matt gets him going with a box
of brake parts from Polaris.
So who's your buddy now?
Do you want my body?
I don't get to hit him.
Nice to hear, pal.
I got five.
Three-bees!
Three-bees!
I think you've been
watching the show too much.
The solution it comes up with is a
masterpiece of monster garage ingenuity.
You put it like that.
And you can break individually.
I'll leave her here.
Doose, you're imagination.
Hector scavengers through the wreckage
to find the extra parts he needs.
He makes a box to hold what will
forever be known as the Hector Stick.
Matt puts the steel rails to the grinder.
There's no doubt in his
or anyone else's mind.
He's going to nail the tracks.
Matt wishes Jesse would nail down his
plan for raising and lowering the tracks.
I think Ferman his mind.
I think it's a little foggy,
and everybody else's mind.
Airbag or hydraulic airbag.
I think we're going to
need to use an actuator.
Airbag.
I draw like a actuator.
I'll either stick with or modify my plan.
So we're talking about having a
link here, a link here, right?
This is your Fortlink bill.
Where this how this ties
in with airbags above here.
whatever, you got that figure now?
Sure.
At the end of day two, the
team has the tracks tracking,
the minimized and ready
to fulfill its destiny
as the world's first and
only mini-coupers' nomobia.
Day three, the bill team
has barely cracked the ice
on turning a brand new mini
into a monster's nomobia,
but nobody's worried.
Except for Hector, the
team's golden-throwed
monster mystic is worried
about his Hector stick.
Last night, I have a dream.
The idea that seems so
ingenious the day before
has one minor flaw.
It can steer the car,
but it can't stop it.
The brakes system that we have here,
so far has been able
to break individually,
but not break the whole car.
So we will break one or the other.
But any time you need to break,
you need to break both simultaneously.
While Hector retreats
to the drawing board,
the snowmobile team pushes hard to
finish the first of the two tracks,
eager to lend a hand, Jack has
joined forces with the snowmobileers.
This drill press, this is the one
that no one used to build the arm.
Jack Nickerson has been building
fast cars and speedboats
since he was a kid.
Start building cars when I was five.
I've actually done it for an
occupation out for about two years.
But like Jesse, he knows
Bubkis about snowmobileers.
I hate snow.
It's funny that I'm on this
show because there's nobody
that hates snow more than me.
He also has a large tech two on
his leg that he claims is his wife.
Sure, Jack, whatever you say.
To finish the first track,
they make an extension plate
to add to the front of the rail,
so they can adjust the train tension.
With the extension plate welded in place,
they start adding the axles and wheels.
Hey guys, here's our bearing.
By mid morning, a final
piece to the puzzle arrives.
Bearies for the front axles.
Go on a big side if that'll work.
By mid day, the first of the
two tracks is finally built.
Matt and Brady give it its
first try out in a snow.
Her works.
Oh yeah.
Jesse's goal for the day is to restore a
little structural integrity to the gutted
mini.
The man who took so much from the
mini decides to give something back.
To keep the car from
collapsing in on itself,
he fashions a roll
cage out of steel pipe.
The cage will also have to
be strong enough to support
the snowmobile tracks and engines.
Hector's method is his
madness and he's conjured
up a new and improved
version of the Hector's dick.
I'm visualize it in my hand.
It's kind of I can't see
things moving in my mind.
A second lever attached to a centrifugal
rotary will stop the tracks by depressing
both break candles at once.
He's also adding a throttle control
for the two snowmobile engines.
By late afternoon, Matt and Brady
have assembled the second track.
The two tracks are temporarily
linked with tie rods.
She makes roller blades out of those.
They profit under the mini to
make sure it's going to fit.
Now that Jesse can see
what he has to work with,
his plan for how to
raise and lower the track
finally gels.
We could link those
together and we need a
and if we got miles, we can
still get our adjustment
and have our ram going
straight into here.
The tracks will be attached by
a four-link to the roll cage.
A single hydraulic ram
will raise and lower them.
This no-mobile team starts fabricating
a support frame for the engines.
Here's our engine crannel.
Jesse's got a clever
idea for raising the back
of the car so they can
install the tracks.
Welded to the lift.
If we try to tape it up on the
lift, it's going to fall over.
Dave Forst starts off
with an avalanche of
pre-bees, courtesy of
our friends at Polaris
No-mobile's.
This is still cut, let me get him.
I'm defiant.
See they're wrong.
Warring harness, I guess
these are motor mounts.
Three-bees.
Three-bees.
Zero.
Not out.
But the parts they need most
are still missing an engine.
The engines.
After a second rough
night's sleep, Hector
has realized that there's
yet another problem
with the Hector stick.
With two handles plus a throttle,
it will take three hands to operate.
At first, he considers
using the mini's gas
pedal to control the snowmobile engines.
But right away, he hits a snag.
There's no way to attach throttle
cables to an electronic pedal.
The magic of electronics.
With time getting tight, Brady, the swammy
of snowmobile, is chomping at the bit.
Brady Canberra makes the fastest,
coolest, custom snowmobile's on earth.
I am kind of the gestion James
of the snowmobile industry.
His pride and joy is a 420 horsepower
nitrous charge snow rocket.
It flies uphill at a
frosty 90 miles per hour.
It also doubles as a jet ski.
I think everybody looks up to the
craftsmanship that just he has.
I want to be looked up
to his similar to that.
Just this radical guy that
builds some really cool stuff.
More stuff arrives.
Into the garage come two thumping hearts
to power the twin snowmobile tracks.
Top of the line, Polaris Liberty 800s.
Worktalk and two stroke liquid cooled
8,000 RPMs and 140 horsepower peace.
A moment later, their
giant freebie cake gets
some icing, matching
sets of power boosting
exhaust pipes, courtesy of Brady's
friends at starting line products.
Now the real fun begins.
Each engine is 25 inches
wide and requires a clutch
assembly, jackshaft,
brakes, gears and a drive
chain. The problem is
hot amount all this to a
15 inch wide track and
still leave room for the
four lengths in hydraulic
ram. They also need to
make sure that all the
belts, shafts, gears and
lines up and nothing
interferes with anything else.
And Jesse found a new
toy, a Polaris Predator.
Back in the garage, Matt
and Brady have come up
with a way to squeeze
the two engines into the
tiny track. Set one further back and
higher than the others so they can overlap.
Jesse adds a crossbar
to hold the hydraulic
ram. With so much
attention being paid to the
back of the car, nobody's
given much thought to
the second major component
to the mini snowmobile,
the front skis. It's just
something that I feel
that we ought to get
some sort of a handle on.
I don't know. Jesse decides
it's time to rectify
that situation. We're
going to the land of the
misfit monster garage parts. We got some
hydraulic stuff left over.
Put them right on the
front bumper. The skis.
Are you feeling me? On
this side of the channel.
Jesse's idea is to use
hydraulic rams for raising
and lowering the skis.
His initial thought is
to connect them to the
tractor takes this idea and runs with us.
Find a better idea. This arm is by the
suspension. We put the bottle in to the
suspension here and we can make it turn.
As the end of the day approaches, the
intricate engine assembly takes shape.
Godzilla. Look at that. It's
not quite wild, it's gargantuan.
Remember gargantuan? It was just like the
monkey looking long here due to the wind.
That's all it did. And like
knocked buildings over.
The goal was to get the engines mounted
and in the car by the end of the day.
I'm going to make a
chain center before week.
That's just a thing
for half a day behind.
Tomorrow we have to be
trying to make those
things run and make the
hydraulic system work
or we're dead in the
water. There's only two
days left and their
monsters still in pieces
on the garage floor.
Day five. Three bill days down and
two to go. The snowmen arrive early.
But there's no time
for slow dancing in the
snow. This is monster
garage and there's a
heavy waiting for its twin engine power
plant. The motors are
mounted to the tracks,
but they're still lying
on the garage floor and
nobody started on the
skis for the front end.
It's going to be another long day.
Mr. Freeze blows into the garage
and tries out his chariot. No,
no handlebars, just a rope.
Now all they have to do
is squeeze 500 pounds
of motorized snowmobile track into a car
that's just too damn small.
Looking good? Yeah.
Big surprise, it doesn't
fit. This monster is
having a tough delivery.
They'll have to cut.
The poor minis had enough of the torch
and decides to throw a flaming hissy fit.
The fires out, the tracks and engines are
in, but before anybody
starts celebrating,
Jack throws some cold
water on their monster.
We have 10 pounds of
crap in a five-pound bag.
There's two batteries,
two hydraulic pumps,
two snowmobile motors,
two snowmobile motor,
two snowmobile motor, track assemblies,
hydraulic ramp, poses wires,
an extra tap on our extra
speedometer. Jessie needs to
clear his head. A little
joy ride might do the trick.
I would be safe to say
that the first snowmobile
that's ever been ridden in Long Beach.
With the rest of the team focused on the
engines, Rick has taken
on the neglected job
of building the front skis. For maximum
power, the two strokes
snowmobile engines need
exhaust pipes with large
expansion chambers. The
problem is that these
four massive pipes need
to squeeze into what
little room is left between
the engines and the
minis roof. To do that,
Brady will have to slice and weld, cutting
the pipes to half their original size.
There's 27 hours left
before their monster
hits the snow, or the
shredder. You guys know,
if it gets midnight and it's not in that
way, I'm going peacefully like them.
First, we're going to set the car
and fire right here in the shop.
Incredibly, it's at this point they
come up with their first to do lists,
but about the mounting
into the car. Battery's
got to go. I could see
this taking us all night.
I do sure there's a
few people that haven't
taken out. The team
has so much left to do,
they decided to work through the
night. Jesse decides to let them.
Rick is still locked in battle
with the steel for the front skis.
Brady has barely gotten started
cutting and pasting the exhaust pipes.
Hector has still got to get the throttle
and brakes connected and working.
Matt will install the cooling
system for the radiator.
As the only member of the
team who knows hydraulics,
Jack takes on the job of
getting Jesse's ramp to work.
One hydraulic pump will operate the
ram, lifting and lowering the tracks.
A second pump will do the
same for the front skis.
It's now past midnight,
officially day six.
The team's last day to get the job done.
This is what the ticking
clock called monster garage
can do to a competent man
of sound mind and body.
I'm just using this
box section to help me
calculate a little bit
about what I'm what I don't
know that I want to do.
This is just helping me
like see if they can
come up with some kind of
a freaking idea or direction here.
It's after 1 a.m. before the hydraulic
ram is ready for its first test.
I used a piece of junk hose that we had
laying around here and it has leaking it.
So, now I'm screwed.
Jack's crowned his up enough
spare parts to fix the leak.
By 230 in the morning, he's ready for
a second test of the hydraulic ram.
Trying to go up? No. No more
leak, but it's still not working.
Jack's hit the wall on the hydraulics.
What's wrong? I don't know.
Brady steps into Lenda Hand.
We've had several weeks had a line below.
We've got a problem with our valve and
not really sure what it is.
When a team gets this quiet,
you know you're in trouble.
The car is waiting.
One look at Rick says
it all. We've lost him.
Where there once was purpose to his
banging, now there's just banging.
Finally, after half an
hour of head scratching,
Jack comes up with an inspired idea.
See how it was done on one
of the other monster cars.
Turns out, there's another
way to route the lines.
The right way. At 3.30 a
.m., they test the ram again.
Finally, it works.
This is the most important thing on this
whole card of me. This
is it. This makes us
embraces. It means finding somewhere else
in the cramped mini to mount the ram.
That's fine. I think this is
viable. I think the front is viable.
Matt knows it's no time
for radical changes.
He tries to salvage
what they have. His idea
fabricate a new mounting bracket that
will hold the ram clear of the engine.
And for good measure, cut
off the last remaining
thread of the mini's original back end.
Jack fabricates a new mounting bracket.
The monster draw is cool,
and hey, for your hot metal.
The warm, the shower and a toothbrush
should be better than sex right now.
It's 5 a.m., and the ram
is attached to the new
mount. The dog-tired team
gives it one last test.
It's not pretty, but it needs to work.
The exhausted team
calls it a night, while
they still can, the sun
will soon be rising,
and they'll be back at
it, trying to beat life
into their monster before
the clock beats them.
The garage is heated up. The
pressure start in the bill.
Well, the team, my step-on, sir.
What's that? It's coming alive.
We're the PM, many meltdowns.
I win. I win. I win. Stay tuned.
It's still day six. The team drags
themselves in, days then abuse.
Power sleep. Much better.
This is the longest hardest, you know,
without the whole time that I've ever done.
Turns out Brady works
straight through, and
won't stop until his
Frankenpipes are finished.
Time started to take a toll, I'm getting
all the fire. We got a snowman bill bill.
What's left on there
to do list? Too much.
We need to figure out
this key. We got a hook
of chains, finished
pipes, the problem cable.
When that's all done, we'll make smoke.
Rick's made it back from
the slopes of insanity,
with a pair of crude
and mischapened steel
skis for the mini monsters.
These skis were kicking
my butt, I'll tell you
the, you know, from the
right from the get guy.
Everything I seen to touch
went to hell yesterday,
and you know, now I'm wine
and I'm crying, right?
Jesse arrives looking a little more
refreshed than the rest of the team.
The hydraulic ram works,
and clears the engine
assembly, but the
headaches aren't over yet.
In the down position, the snowmobile
assembly still shakes like crazy.
Jesse puts his good night's sleep to work,
and quickly comes up with a solution.
He adds support prices
and a cradle arm to
hold the track steady
in the down position.
I'm just using the old
pillbilly method of if it
doesn't work, just keep adding
more metal till it does.
Hector has been forced
to fabricate a second
gas pedal to power the snowmobile engine.
Kind of matches the original in time.
But he's still waiting for one last part
before he can test it out, a fuel pump.
By mid-morning, Radie's heroic effort has
paid off. The exhaust pipes are finished.
Can I hide this?
Frankenstein?
Bought them like, oh, fing
the weld, I'm not at all.
The United Way.
Now comes the real test, will
they fit inside the crowded car?
You recognize either of these, this
one's got a funny downturn tail.
So that one goes on
first. Is it this one?
Incredibly, he gets all
four puzzle pieces to fit.
Off front, the minis under the torch.
Jack's begging it to make room for the skis.
The minis response?
The harness is on fire,
please get water quick.
The minis main wiring harness is on fire.
Before it's too late, someone hands
him a monster garage fire extinguisher.
Yeah, okay. It looks like the
whole fire was the last part.
It's wrapped around the harness.
Doesn't look like it
burned in the harness.
None of the wires looking.
You are lucky. I think he's lucky.
After 24 hours of pounding and welding,
Rick's skis are finally ready to be
counted to the car. Not much curb
appeal, but at least they're done.
Kind of crude looking. They're like a way
crude. Kind of crude
looking would be put in
all night late. But you
know something today,
they're doing what they need to be doing.
So it's like, it's monster garage.
The team has only six hours left
before their midnight deadline.
Pipes are done. This has
done fuel fills in fittings.
Rakes to the car is plugged. That's all
the must do for being such a mini car.
A mini is a pretty big project. So
Jessie always has time for a good luck
kiss from Jessie Jr. Jessie
Jr always wipes it off.
Yeah. A new fuel pump arrives
for the motor and engines.
I got the They slap it in and
prepare for the moment of truth.
Right on, huh? It sounds
good. Right on. Let's go.
Jessie celebrates by buying the
team a round of shackle tacos.
Thanks, dude.
There's something for
the mini as well. Wheels
from Quantum Tech Alloys
and tires from Toyo.
Dude, I'm your hero. Really? How
come? I haven't seen you, maybe.
Don't take it first,
honey. Because he just told
me that like 12 minutes
ago that I was just here.
You are not my hero yet. I
got to see you all the time.
Jessie cuts the mini off the lift.
It's time to see if their monster
will bite snow or just bite.
Over at West Coast choppers, Jessie's
arranged a little surprise on mini snowstorm.
A 60-foot stretch of fresh powder will
either make or break their monster.
The snow has caused the mysterious outbreak
of kids in a neighborhood without any.
Even more amazing, the tattoo on
Jack's leg really is his wife.
The mini's on the snow,
but it's not moving.
One of the track engines won't turn over.
What does your wife lack of skill
or not gets part of the flavor?
It's 11 p.m. Do you know
where your kids are down here?
No, yeah, why do those things are
working, yeah. Please come get them.
Jessie's about to lose his cool and
the teens about to lose their tools.
One of the motors trying to get it right
at it. It doesn't want to run that good.
Minutes before midnight,
they give it one last try.
Nothing but monster.
Against all odds, the mini
snowmobile team has pulled it off.
But brain itches down. I felt loudness.
The mini snowmobile is turned over
to the fastest paint gun in the West.
Tom Prood of Damen's House of
Motorcycles. Prood lays out his plan.
I'm going to mix some
blue blood red. We're
going to blend in some
of the Molly Orange,
or trying to achieve is a look of ice
cubes. He's talking ice cube blue,
but he's seeing red for the all
-important monster garage flames.
Finally, a quick pass with his airbrush
leaves it looking like an igloo.
It's a stone cold monster.
Hello again, monster fans, big swag here,
and we are on a long way from Long Beach,
waiting for the start of
another monster garage
challenge. Next to me is
always my good friend,
Frankie White's side.
What a split dog. We are
swag, man. Up in the
mountains that is way out
in a place called
Alpine Wyoming. Frankie,
I can't stop shaking.
My friends are smoking
and my snots turn into an icicle. What
the hell's going on? Your cold swag.
Oh yeah, run. Okay folks, but we didn't
come here to blow snow up your tailpipes.
We came here to race.
Today's challenge was
laid down by a good
buddy of monster garage.
And a good old boy swag,
the king, Richard Teddy.
Jesse, you're the guys in monster garage.
Why don't y'all get something together?
Come over in Wyoming and race
with him a little bit. Okay.
Teddy is ready to get on and
just outside the bullmole
Sloan. It looks like the
whole town has turned out
for the showdown in the
snow. Yeah, gotta be cool
to do with the king that
is and here comes the
ice man himself. Jesse
James driving up in his
mini Cooper snowmobile,
a nasty little monster
called snowballs. You're going to have to
engage us. Yeah, I need
his throttle. Yeah,
don't worry about the break, right?
That's right. Jesse, nothing but throttle.
Jesse's going to need a big bottle of
throttle to keep up with King Richard.
Whoa, the mini's morphing. It's a double
barrel snow shooter. So this is one of
both racers who are at the starting
line. Jesse's all fired up.
Jesse's revving. The rubber in a
rough Richard, Penny fires back.
The roof. Okay, frosty.
How about the rules?
No problem, swag man. There are no rules.
Up and down the mountain.
The fastest man wins.
Paige, swag. Check out the scenery. Is it
pretty? Why don't you
take a picture, Frank?
Check out Richard's ride.
A brand spanking new
Colour 700 Pro X2. Did
you know it's got 130
horsepower and King Go over 100 miles per
hour? Penny's making
a move to the inside.
And he takes the lead. Jesse Gunsett,
Richard might be a living legend, but Jesse's
ready to dethrone the King. Hi, why don't
a second. Richard's over shot the turn.
He's gone off trail. Jesse's making a
three point turn and Richard in the powder.
Jesse's back on track and so is Richard.
Oh, yeah, the King is running and
going and he's back
out front, but for how
long? Jesse pushes his
mini to the max and
reels Richard back in. Snowballs got Game
Swag. But it looks like Richard's the
client's ranking. There's the finish line.
He smells victory. Richard Penny wins.
The showdown in the snow.
That's the first ever
loss for Jesse in a
monster garage challenge.
But look here. One thing's for sure.
That's a mini Cooper snowmobile. That's for
you. That's a snowmobile
snowmobile. And you're
still the King. I like
it. I enjoyed it man.
But Jesse's got no time for slow, goers.
Snow blowers are bad. Air dice? He's got
spucks to fly. Metal to
burn. Because the next
monster garage challenge
is just around the bed.
Yeah.
Brady Brown. Great. Thanks.
That's two boxes for you.
Well, much garage CDs.

Oh, wait a minute.
We seem to be having a
problem with our signal.
Someone's trying to
take over our broadcast.
Wait a second.
That looks like Richard Petty.
Jesse.
You're in the guys at Monster Garage.
Why don't you get something together?
We'll get something together.
Come over and wild.
And then trace with him a little bit.
trace with him a little bit.
But you're disputing, King of Racing.
Richard Petty.
He broke right in.
He took all Jesse out.
How's he gonna take it?
I win.
Well, he won.
Flime out.
Or just lose it completely.
We'll temperature drop in fast.
Oh, Monster Plinsard is
about to hit the garage.
Grab the fence and
gather around the fire.
And listen to a tale.
Cut, Monster Garage.
Join us now as Jesse and his
gang of Maverick mechanics.
Rip, grind, and burn.
Transforming ordinary street
vehicles into Monster Machines
in the Monster Garage.
This week's challenge.
Take a 2003 mini Cooper and
turn it into a screening
trail biting Monster Snowmobile.
The rules.
When built, the Monster Machine
must appear to be stock.
The team can spend no more than
$3,000 in cold cash 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, they walk
away with a $3400 set of
factors, and the clock starts now.
Day one.
Jesse meshes the mini into the garage.
The design team comes in from the cold.
Before the design team gets started,
Jesse has a confession to make.
To have zero experience on snow.
They've been skiing, snowboarding.
It's cold thing.
Their first challenge.
Getting a track designed
for a 500-pound snowmobile
to push a 2500-pound car.
What do you think?
I mean, the snow will be a guy, so.
Well, we're limited to one track or two.
I think we're going to have to have two.
Just because the size of it.
How wide is that track?
This one's 15 inches wide.
So we need 35 inches
if we use two of them.
It'll be tight, but there's just enough
room under the mini for two tracks
side by side.
Next, they'll need to figure
out how to get power to them.
How fast we need to go?
Fast, fast.
I think the simplest way
to go is use the clutch,
dry line, transmission, everything
it'll drive just like a car.
But instead of driving front wheels,
we'll switch that to the back to
drive the tracks on each side.
A drive train will
connect the dual track.
To the mini's engine.
This monster machine also
has to drive like a car.
For that, they'll need a way to raise
and lower the snowmobile tracks.
I've got a couple ideas for that.
We could use a high pedal.
It says to push this down to the ground.
Lift the weight of the vehicle up.
Rick's Souls is a paint and
body training manager for
many of North America.
It was a little bit of a surprise
to me that many would allow
monster grounds to take this vehicle.
I mean, cut it up and morph
it into this snowmobile.
He's also a lifelong car customizer.
If it had wheels, then I had one.
I wanted to raise somebody
that had another one.
Under the front end,
they consider adding skis
to both steer the mini
snowmobile and to keep it
from sinking into the snow.
What do we make a ski that
allows the wheel to just
hang below it?
Matt Loub is a product manager
for Polaris snowmobile.
He's also a two-time world
champion hill climber.
Think of a downhill-solum
steer going through the gates.
We go up the same mountain
through the gates.
There is a downhill
element to hill climbing
and that's when the fun really begins.
The skis could be mounted to
the mini's front suspension.
It'd be kind of cool if these
things folded up and actually
landed into the running board.
Rafael Zemit is a senior car
designer for general motors.
The mini is all about customization.
It's all about attitude.
This is a car that's begging for this.
The final design.
Two retractable snowmobile
tracks will be mounted to the
mini's underside powered
by a drive train connected
to the mini's front wheel drive engine.
Skis that ride just above
the front tires will be
connected to the front suspension arm.
Day two, the build
team enters the garage.
Jack Nickerson is an ace welder
and builder of custom hot rods
and speedboats.
Hector Orlando heals from Puerto
Rico via Sagan on Michigan
where he builds something
he calls no planes.
For Brady Cameron, there's no
business like snow business.
He's the head mechanic
for Tyson snowmobile's.
Two design team members are
staying on for the build.
Rick's souls from Wall Crow, New
York and Matt Lou from Buffalo,
Minnesota.
Jesse wastes no time and rips
the wrapping off his new present.
We've got a really big story this guy.
A 2003 mini Cooper.
Thanks to mini USA, this is
the first brand new car to come
straight from the
factory into the garage.
But this one's not done yet.
Somewhere inside it's
sporty compact frame.
There's a monster snowmobile
that needs to come out.
All right, guys.
Work time.
So we designed this thing.
We kind of came up with this
roob gold bird contraption.
The design calls for the mini's
Peppy 115 horsepower engine
to power both the car wheels
and the snowmobile tracks.
But Jesse thinks that might
max out his little mini.
The more I thought about it, you
know, you brought up a good point
that the Polaris motor makes
more power than the mini motor.
So we should keep it two
separate vehicles in one.
Jesse knows how to make a monster.
Let the mini keep its motor.
And muscle in two macho
Polaris nomobile engines.
One for each track.
When this abominable
snowmobile hits the trail,
it will have a snow
scorching 300 horsepower
to pulverize the powder for things
for it to take the same part.
The team sinks their teeth
into the brand new mini Cooper.
Are there a full training one?
Jesse's design chain sends our
snowmobile expert max scrambling.
He'll need to scrounge up two
complete snowmobile engines
with all the fixings by tomorrow.
The twisted pleasure of
tearing into a brand new mini
inspires Hector de Song.
An operatic piece of his own.
He calls O to destruction.
The easy part is done.
The interior is now exterior.
It gets harder when they start
cutting into the mini's underbelly,
especially for Rick, the
rep from many headquarters
who hates to see anything go.
That's cross-member.
This is holding the
wheels on this vehicle.
Here.
This is all I'm going to show you here.
That's going to be a problem.
I think we should just ditch it.
Rick and his precious mini
are in for a rough time.
Nothing secret to Mr. Slash and Burn.
You gotta get your mindset
in the monster garage mode.
All that engineering I'm
just going to go play.
I'm going to throw out with the torch.
The plan is to cut out a section of
the floor to make room for the tracks.
The mini has a unibody construction,
meaning the structural supports
are built into the body parts.
If Jesse cuts out too much,
the entire car could go laps.
Rick starts to worry if his mini
can handle all this hacking.
I think he likes to cut, you know.
It's not necessary.
That cross-member holds the
S into that part together.
I'm going to have my own fellow.
My way must be a little
too conservative, you know.
For his part, Jesse isn't too concerned.
It should be all right.
Matt and Brady, the
team's snowmobile experts,
no two things.
One, how to build snowmobiles.
And two, the team is counting on
them because no one else has a clue.
Polaris has given them everything
they need to make it happen.
They'll start with the tracks.
But these tracks are going to have
to be unlike anything ever seen
on a snowmobile.
A stock snowmobile
track is 18 inches high.
To fit under the mini, they've
got to cut that almost in half.
Matt's plan is to toss
out the suspension arms
and attach the drive shaft
directly to the rails.
But there's no way the stock aluminum
rails can support five times more weight
than they were designed for.
They're going to have to fabricate
new rails out of 38 inch steel plate.
The team needs to come
up with some kind of
gizmo that will break
each track separately,
allowing the mini to steer like a tank.
Their monsters' snowbrakes
need someone with imagination.
Someone who can improvise.
Someone who can say.
Hector Orlando has been into monsters long
before they got their own hit TV series.
He builds snowplanes.
A simple, fast and potentially
fatal slice of frigid fun.
Take a car, put a planer jet
engine on it and hit the ice.
It gives him and his neighbors
something to do during the long winters
in his hometown of Sagan, on Michigan.
Good stuff.
If he can survive snowplanes,
Jerry rigging some brakes
for a mini snowmobile
should be no problem.
Matt gets him going with a box
of brake parts from Polaris.
So who's your buddy now?
Do you want my body?
I don't get to hit him.
Nice to hear, pal.
I got five.
Three-bees!
Three-bees!
I think you've been
watching the show too much.
The solution it comes up with is a
masterpiece of monster garage ingenuity.
You put it like that.
And you can break individually.
I'll leave her here.
Doose, you're imagination.
Hector scavengers through the wreckage
to find the extra parts he needs.
He makes a box to hold what will
forever be known as the Hector Stick.
Matt puts the steel rails to the grinder.
There's no doubt in his
or anyone else's mind.
He's going to nail the tracks.
Matt wishes Jesse would nail down his
plan for raising and lowering the tracks.
I think Ferman his mind.
I think it's a little foggy,
and everybody else's mind.
Airbag or hydraulic airbag.
I think we're going to
need to use an actuator.
Airbag.
I draw like a actuator.
I'll either stick with or modify my plan.
So we're talking about having a
link here, a link here, right?
This is your Fortlink bill.
Where this how this ties
in with airbags above here.
whatever, you got that figure now?
Sure.
At the end of day two, the
team has the tracks tracking,
the minimized and ready
to fulfill its destiny
as the world's first and
only mini-coupers' nomobia.
Day three, the bill team
has barely cracked the ice
on turning a brand new mini
into a monster's nomobia,
but nobody's worried.
Except for Hector, the
team's golden-throwed
monster mystic is worried
about his Hector stick.
Last night, I have a dream.
The idea that seems so
ingenious the day before
has one minor flaw.
It can steer the car,
but it can't stop it.
The brakes system that we have here,
so far has been able
to break individually,
but not break the whole car.
So we will break one or the other.
But any time you need to break,
you need to break both simultaneously.
While Hector retreats
to the drawing board,
the snowmobile team pushes hard to
finish the first of the two tracks,
eager to lend a hand, Jack has
joined forces with the snowmobileers.
This drill press, this is the one
that no one used to build the arm.
Jack Nickerson has been building
fast cars and speedboats
since he was a kid.
Start building cars when I was five.
I've actually done it for an
occupation out for about two years.
But like Jesse, he knows
Bubkis about snowmobileers.
I hate snow.
It's funny that I'm on this
show because there's nobody
that hates snow more than me.
He also has a large tech two on
his leg that he claims is his wife.
Sure, Jack, whatever you say.
To finish the first track,
they make an extension plate
to add to the front of the rail,
so they can adjust the train tension.
With the extension plate welded in place,
they start adding the axles and wheels.
Hey guys, here's our bearing.
By mid morning, a final
piece to the puzzle arrives.
Bearies for the front axles.
Go on a big side if that'll work.
By mid day, the first of the
two tracks is finally built.
Matt and Brady give it its
first try out in a snow.
Her works.
Oh yeah.
Jesse's goal for the day is to restore a
little structural integrity to the gutted
mini.
The man who took so much from the
mini decides to give something back.
To keep the car from
collapsing in on itself,
he fashions a roll
cage out of steel pipe.
The cage will also have to
be strong enough to support
the snowmobile tracks and engines.
Hector's method is his
madness and he's conjured
up a new and improved
version of the Hector's dick.
I'm visualize it in my hand.
It's kind of I can't see
things moving in my mind.
A second lever attached to a centrifugal
rotary will stop the tracks by depressing
both break candles at once.
He's also adding a throttle control
for the two snowmobile engines.
By late afternoon, Matt and Brady
have assembled the second track.
The two tracks are temporarily
linked with tie rods.
She makes roller blades out of those.
They profit under the mini to
make sure it's going to fit.
Now that Jesse can see
what he has to work with,
his plan for how to
raise and lower the track
finally gels.
We could link those
together and we need a
and if we got miles, we can
still get our adjustment
and have our ram going
straight into here.
The tracks will be attached by
a four-link to the roll cage.
A single hydraulic ram
will raise and lower them.
This no-mobile team starts fabricating
a support frame for the engines.
Here's our engine crannel.
Jesse's got a clever
idea for raising the back
of the car so they can
install the tracks.
Welded to the lift.
If we try to tape it up on the
lift, it's going to fall over.
Dave Forst starts off
with an avalanche of
pre-bees, courtesy of
our friends at Polaris
No-mobile's.
This is still cut, let me get him.
I'm defiant.
See they're wrong.
Warring harness, I guess
these are motor mounts.
Three-bees.
Three-bees.
Zero.
Not out.
But the parts they need most
are still missing an engine.
The engines.
After a second rough
night's sleep, Hector
has realized that there's
yet another problem
with the Hector stick.
With two handles plus a throttle,
it will take three hands to operate.
At first, he considers
using the mini's gas
pedal to control the snowmobile engines.
But right away, he hits a snag.
There's no way to attach throttle
cables to an electronic pedal.
The magic of electronics.
With time getting tight, Brady, the swammy
of snowmobile, is chomping at the bit.
Brady Canberra makes the fastest,
coolest, custom snowmobile's on earth.
I am kind of the gestion James
of the snowmobile industry.
His pride and joy is a 420 horsepower
nitrous charge snow rocket.
It flies uphill at a
frosty 90 miles per hour.
It also doubles as a jet ski.
I think everybody looks up to the
craftsmanship that just he has.
I want to be looked up
to his similar to that.
Just this radical guy that
builds some really cool stuff.
More stuff arrives.
Into the garage come two thumping hearts
to power the twin snowmobile tracks.
Top of the line, Polaris Liberty 800s.
Worktalk and two stroke liquid cooled
8,000 RPMs and 140 horsepower peace.
A moment later, their
giant freebie cake gets
some icing, matching
sets of power boosting
exhaust pipes, courtesy of Brady's
friends at starting line products.
Now the real fun begins.
Each engine is 25 inches
wide and requires a clutch
assembly, jackshaft,
brakes, gears and a drive
chain. The problem is
hot amount all this to a
15 inch wide track and
still leave room for the
four lengths in hydraulic
ram. They also need to
make sure that all the
belts, shafts, gears and
lines up and nothing
interferes with anything else.
And Jesse found a new
toy, a Polaris Predator.
Back in the garage, Matt
and Brady have come up
with a way to squeeze
the two engines into the
tiny track. Set one further back and
higher than the others so they can overlap.
Jesse adds a crossbar
to hold the hydraulic
ram. With so much
attention being paid to the
back of the car, nobody's
given much thought to
the second major component
to the mini snowmobile,
the front skis. It's just
something that I feel
that we ought to get
some sort of a handle on.
I don't know. Jesse decides
it's time to rectify
that situation. We're
going to the land of the
misfit monster garage parts. We got some
hydraulic stuff left over.
Put them right on the
front bumper. The skis.
Are you feeling me? On
this side of the channel.
Jesse's idea is to use
hydraulic rams for raising
and lowering the skis.
His initial thought is
to connect them to the
tractor takes this idea and runs with us.
Find a better idea. This arm is by the
suspension. We put the bottle in to the
suspension here and we can make it turn.
As the end of the day approaches, the
intricate engine assembly takes shape.
Godzilla. Look at that. It's
not quite wild, it's gargantuan.
Remember gargantuan? It was just like the
monkey looking long here due to the wind.
That's all it did. And like
knocked buildings over.
The goal was to get the engines mounted
and in the car by the end of the day.
I'm going to make a
chain center before week.
That's just a thing
for half a day behind.
Tomorrow we have to be
trying to make those
things run and make the
hydraulic system work
or we're dead in the
water. There's only two
days left and their
monsters still in pieces
on the garage floor.
Day five. Three bill days down and
two to go. The snowmen arrive early.
But there's no time
for slow dancing in the
snow. This is monster
garage and there's a
heavy waiting for its twin engine power
plant. The motors are
mounted to the tracks,
but they're still lying
on the garage floor and
nobody started on the
skis for the front end.
It's going to be another long day.
Mr. Freeze blows into the garage
and tries out his chariot. No,
no handlebars, just a rope.
Now all they have to do
is squeeze 500 pounds
of motorized snowmobile track into a car
that's just too damn small.
Looking good? Yeah.
Big surprise, it doesn't
fit. This monster is
having a tough delivery.
They'll have to cut.
The poor minis had enough of the torch
and decides to throw a flaming hissy fit.
The fires out, the tracks and engines are
in, but before anybody
starts celebrating,
Jack throws some cold
water on their monster.
We have 10 pounds of
crap in a five-pound bag.
There's two batteries,
two hydraulic pumps,
two snowmobile motors,
two snowmobile motor,
two snowmobile motor, track assemblies,
hydraulic ramp, poses wires,
an extra tap on our extra
speedometer. Jessie needs to
clear his head. A little
joy ride might do the trick.
I would be safe to say
that the first snowmobile
that's ever been ridden in Long Beach.
With the rest of the team focused on the
engines, Rick has taken
on the neglected job
of building the front skis. For maximum
power, the two strokes
snowmobile engines need
exhaust pipes with large
expansion chambers. The
problem is that these
four massive pipes need
to squeeze into what
little room is left between
the engines and the
minis roof. To do that,
Brady will have to slice and weld, cutting
the pipes to half their original size.
There's 27 hours left
before their monster
hits the snow, or the
shredder. You guys know,
if it gets midnight and it's not in that
way, I'm going peacefully like them.
First, we're going to set the car
and fire right here in the shop.
Incredibly, it's at this point they
come up with their first to do lists,
but about the mounting
into the car. Battery's
got to go. I could see
this taking us all night.
I do sure there's a
few people that haven't
taken out. The team
has so much left to do,
they decided to work through the
night. Jesse decides to let them.
Rick is still locked in battle
with the steel for the front skis.
Brady has barely gotten started
cutting and pasting the exhaust pipes.
Hector has still got to get the throttle
and brakes connected and working.
Matt will install the cooling
system for the radiator.
As the only member of the
team who knows hydraulics,
Jack takes on the job of
getting Jesse's ramp to work.
One hydraulic pump will operate the
ram, lifting and lowering the tracks.
A second pump will do the
same for the front skis.
It's now past midnight,
officially day six.
The team's last day to get the job done.
This is what the ticking
clock called monster garage
can do to a competent man
of sound mind and body.
I'm just using this
box section to help me
calculate a little bit
about what I'm what I don't
know that I want to do.
This is just helping me
like see if they can
come up with some kind of
a freaking idea or direction here.
It's after 1 a.m. before the hydraulic
ram is ready for its first test.
I used a piece of junk hose that we had
laying around here and it has leaking it.
So, now I'm screwed.
Jack's crowned his up enough
spare parts to fix the leak.
By 230 in the morning, he's ready for
a second test of the hydraulic ram.
Trying to go up? No. No more
leak, but it's still not working.
Jack's hit the wall on the hydraulics.
What's wrong? I don't know.
Brady steps into Lenda Hand.
We've had several weeks had a line below.
We've got a problem with our valve and
not really sure what it is.
When a team gets this quiet,
you know you're in trouble.
The car is waiting.
One look at Rick says
it all. We've lost him.
Where there once was purpose to his
banging, now there's just banging.
Finally, after half an
hour of head scratching,
Jack comes up with an inspired idea.
See how it was done on one
of the other monster cars.
Turns out, there's another
way to route the lines.
The right way. At 3.30 a
.m., they test the ram again.
Finally, it works.
This is the most important thing on this
whole card of me. This
is it. This makes us
embraces. It means finding somewhere else
in the cramped mini to mount the ram.
That's fine. I think this is
viable. I think the front is viable.
Matt knows it's no time
for radical changes.
He tries to salvage
what they have. His idea
fabricate a new mounting bracket that
will hold the ram clear of the engine.
And for good measure, cut
off the last remaining
thread of the mini's original back end.
Jack fabricates a new mounting bracket.
The monster draw is cool,
and hey, for your hot metal.
The warm, the shower and a toothbrush
should be better than sex right now.
It's 5 a.m., and the ram
is attached to the new
mount. The dog-tired team
gives it one last test.
It's not pretty, but it needs to work.
The exhausted team
calls it a night, while
they still can, the sun
will soon be rising,
and they'll be back at
it, trying to beat life
into their monster before
the clock beats them.
The garage is heated up. The
pressure start in the bill.
Well, the team, my step-on, sir.
What's that? It's coming alive.
We're the PM, many meltdowns.
I win. I win. I win. Stay tuned.
It's still day six. The team drags
themselves in, days then abuse.
Power sleep. Much better.
This is the longest hardest, you know,
without the whole time that I've ever done.
Turns out Brady works
straight through, and
won't stop until his
Frankenpipes are finished.
Time started to take a toll, I'm getting
all the fire. We got a snowman bill bill.
What's left on there
to do list? Too much.
We need to figure out
this key. We got a hook
of chains, finished
pipes, the problem cable.
When that's all done, we'll make smoke.
Rick's made it back from
the slopes of insanity,
with a pair of crude
and mischapened steel
skis for the mini monsters.
These skis were kicking
my butt, I'll tell you
the, you know, from the
right from the get guy.
Everything I seen to touch
went to hell yesterday,
and you know, now I'm wine
and I'm crying, right?
Jesse arrives looking a little more
refreshed than the rest of the team.
The hydraulic ram works,
and clears the engine
assembly, but the
headaches aren't over yet.
In the down position, the snowmobile
assembly still shakes like crazy.
Jesse puts his good night's sleep to work,
and quickly comes up with a solution.
He adds support prices
and a cradle arm to
hold the track steady
in the down position.
I'm just using the old
pillbilly method of if it
doesn't work, just keep adding
more metal till it does.
Hector has been forced
to fabricate a second
gas pedal to power the snowmobile engine.
Kind of matches the original in time.
But he's still waiting for one last part
before he can test it out, a fuel pump.
By mid-morning, Radie's heroic effort has
paid off. The exhaust pipes are finished.
Can I hide this?
Frankenstein?
Bought them like, oh, fing
the weld, I'm not at all.
The United Way.
Now comes the real test, will
they fit inside the crowded car?
You recognize either of these, this
one's got a funny downturn tail.
So that one goes on
first. Is it this one?
Incredibly, he gets all
four puzzle pieces to fit.
Off front, the minis under the torch.
Jack's begging it to make room for the skis.
The minis response?
The harness is on fire,
please get water quick.
The minis main wiring harness is on fire.
Before it's too late, someone hands
him a monster garage fire extinguisher.
Yeah, okay. It looks like the
whole fire was the last part.
It's wrapped around the harness.
Doesn't look like it
burned in the harness.
None of the wires looking.
You are lucky. I think he's lucky.
After 24 hours of pounding and welding,
Rick's skis are finally ready to be
counted to the car. Not much curb
appeal, but at least they're done.
Kind of crude looking. They're like a way
crude. Kind of crude
looking would be put in
all night late. But you
know something today,
they're doing what they need to be doing.
So it's like, it's monster garage.
The team has only six hours left
before their midnight deadline.
Pipes are done. This has
done fuel fills in fittings.
Rakes to the car is plugged. That's all
the must do for being such a mini car.
A mini is a pretty big project. So
Jessie always has time for a good luck
kiss from Jessie Jr. Jessie
Jr always wipes it off.
Yeah. A new fuel pump arrives
for the motor and engines.
I got the They slap it in and
prepare for the moment of truth.
Right on, huh? It sounds
good. Right on. Let's go.
Jessie celebrates by buying the
team a round of shackle tacos.
Thanks, dude.
There's something for
the mini as well. Wheels
from Quantum Tech Alloys
and tires from Toyo.
Dude, I'm your hero. Really? How
come? I haven't seen you, maybe.
Don't take it first,
honey. Because he just told
me that like 12 minutes
ago that I was just here.
You are not my hero yet. I
got to see you all the time.
Jessie cuts the mini off the lift.
It's time to see if their monster
will bite snow or just bite.
Over at West Coast choppers, Jessie's
arranged a little surprise on mini snowstorm.
A 60-foot stretch of fresh powder will
either make or break their monster.
The snow has caused the mysterious outbreak
of kids in a neighborhood without any.
Even more amazing, the tattoo on
Jack's leg really is his wife.
The mini's on the snow,
but it's not moving.
One of the track engines won't turn over.
What does your wife lack of skill
or not gets part of the flavor?
It's 11 p.m. Do you know
where your kids are down here?
No, yeah, why do those things are
working, yeah. Please come get them.
Jessie's about to lose his cool and
the teens about to lose their tools.
One of the motors trying to get it right
at it. It doesn't want to run that good.
Minutes before midnight,
they give it one last try.
Nothing but monster.
Against all odds, the mini
snowmobile team has pulled it off.
But brain itches down. I felt loudness.
The mini snowmobile is turned over
to the fastest paint gun in the West.
Tom Prood of Damen's House of
Motorcycles. Prood lays out his plan.
I'm going to mix some
blue blood red. We're
going to blend in some
of the Molly Orange,
or trying to achieve is a look of ice
cubes. He's talking ice cube blue,
but he's seeing red for the all
-important monster garage flames.
Finally, a quick pass with his airbrush
leaves it looking like an igloo.
It's a stone cold monster.
Hello again, monster fans, big swag here,
and we are on a long way from Long Beach,
waiting for the start of
another monster garage
challenge. Next to me is
always my good friend,
Frankie White's side.
What a split dog. We are
swag, man. Up in the
mountains that is way out
in a place called
Alpine Wyoming. Frankie,
I can't stop shaking.
My friends are smoking
and my snots turn into an icicle. What
the hell's going on? Your cold swag.
Oh yeah, run. Okay folks, but we didn't
come here to blow snow up your tailpipes.
We came here to race.
Today's challenge was
laid down by a good
buddy of monster garage.
And a good old boy swag,
the king, Richard Teddy.
Jesse, you're the guys in monster garage.
Why don't y'all get something together?
Come over in Wyoming and race
with him a little bit. Okay.
Teddy is ready to get on and
just outside the bullmole
Sloan. It looks like the
whole town has turned out
for the showdown in the
snow. Yeah, gotta be cool
to do with the king that
is and here comes the
ice man himself. Jesse
James driving up in his
mini Cooper snowmobile,
a nasty little monster
called snowballs. You're going to have to
engage us. Yeah, I need
his throttle. Yeah,
don't worry about the break, right?
That's right. Jesse, nothing but throttle.
Jesse's going to need a big bottle of
throttle to keep up with King Richard.
Whoa, the mini's morphing. It's a double
barrel snow shooter. So this is one of
both racers who are at the starting
line. Jesse's all fired up.
Jesse's revving. The rubber in a
rough Richard, Penny fires back.
The roof. Okay, frosty.
How about the rules?
No problem, swag man. There are no rules.
Up and down the mountain.
The fastest man wins.
Paige, swag. Check out the scenery. Is it
pretty? Why don't you
take a picture, Frank?
Check out Richard's ride.
A brand spanking new
Colour 700 Pro X2. Did
you know it's got 130
horsepower and King Go over 100 miles per
hour? Penny's making
a move to the inside.
And he takes the lead. Jesse Gunsett,
Richard might be a living legend, but Jesse's
ready to dethrone the King. Hi, why don't
a second. Richard's over shot the turn.
He's gone off trail. Jesse's making a
three point turn and Richard in the powder.
Jesse's back on track and so is Richard.
Oh, yeah, the King is running and
going and he's back
out front, but for how
long? Jesse pushes his
mini to the max and
reels Richard back in. Snowballs got Game
Swag. But it looks like Richard's the
client's ranking. There's the finish line.
He smells victory. Richard Penny wins.
The showdown in the snow.
That's the first ever
loss for Jesse in a
monster garage challenge.
But look here. One thing's for sure.
That's a mini Cooper snowmobile. That's for
you. That's a snowmobile
snowmobile. And you're
still the King. I like
it. I enjoyed it man.
But Jesse's got no time for slow, goers.
Snow blowers are bad. Air dice? He's got
spucks to fly. Metal to
burn. Because the next
monster garage challenge
is just around the bed.
Yeah.
Brady Brown. Great. Thanks.
That's two boxes for you.
Well, much garage CDs.
