- We're here for a team building exercise.
- Hammertime.
- We're not friends today.
- Woo!
- Car boys.
("William Tell Overture" by Rossini)
- I'm gonna (bleep) you guys.
(mumbling)
- I'm just here for family.
- Welcome to K1 Speed.
We are a world class go-kart track and racing experience.
- Alright!
- [James] I wanna thank K1 for inviting us out,
and giving me this opportunity
to severely embarrass my friends.
(go-karts screeching)
- These races look gnarly, those karts can move.
- [James] Whose the best driver at Donut?
Quite simply, me.
- Feelin' pretty confident, used to go-kart a little bit
when I was a kid.
- I'm gonna destroy all these chumps,
we're not friends today.
- It's about to be mad spicy.
- [Bart] Nolan goes high, I'm gonna go low.
If James goes low, I'm gonna go high.
- I really, really wanna beat Bart,
because Science Garage is inching towards
the Up to Speed popularity.
Let's see how well he does this show with a broken arm.
- I get a lot of *beep* for my driving style
out on the streets.
They call me, "Mr. Slow."
But when you're on a short track in here,
you're in my world *beep*.
- Nolan is being super cocky.
- I'm definitely gonna put Nolan in the wall.
- We'll see who puts who
into what.
- Go, go! I'm ready to go kick some ass.
Who ready?
- You aren't here to pedal your tricycles, this is racing.
If there's not a skid mark in your pants
or blood on the track, you're not pushing the limits.
- We gotta push these limits.
- Seriously, don't waste my time.
Can you do that?
My job is to give you guys the tools to win.
What's the most important part of racing?
- Family.
- Absolutely not.
100% driver mindset.
- You guys are dead.
- Driver mindset is once you leave your body.
- So it's like an acid trip.
- This is your average kart.
Gas pedal's gonna be on the right-hand side.
Left is going to be your brake.
- Braking with your left foot?
That's some Fred Flinstone type shit.
- If you're a heavier gent...
- Your kart is gonna be really slow.
- Slower than... - Anyone else's.
- Yeah, we got a chance.
Where's the horn at?
- It's gonna be a physically audible thing.
(loud yell)
- How many people have died on this track?
- I wouldn't know that.
- After today, it's gonna be at least four.
Car boys.
- Well, let's get you guys suited up.
(chuckles)
- That was a bad idea, I'm gonna get really hot.
(grunts) I'm so fat.
I wasn't always like this.
- I can't even see.
(upbeat music)
- I think it's gonna be pretty messy,
I think the guys are gonna handle the track pretty bad
at the beginning.
Especially because they're going into it cold.
- Yo.
Pole position.
- Where's my lumbar support?
(upbeat music)
- Oh shit, I'm an adult in a toy.
This could be dangerous.
- I was killing in that first,
until I was taken out the game by Bart,
who just comes in, bumps me, and I completely spin out.
- Ain't that a *beep*
- What's up son?
- I was sandbag, big time.
To wait till one of the attendants came by.
- Having spun a couple people, it's kind of fun.
- I think he should be disqualified.
- Turns out Bart is really dirty,
He wrecks Ify in the first turn, the third lap he came in
on the side of me and just slammed me into a wall.
Then he slowed down enough to wave and drive away like,
"Oh, see ya buddy."
- You see a gap, and you don't go for it, you're no longer
a race car driver.
Sorry James, what do you want from me?
- (screams) Turn around and I just see Nolan,
and he shoots me a look that's like,
"This is for every time you've called me Folksy."
He had a rage in his eyes.
(upbeat music)
- This thing is harder than it looks in Mario Kart.
- I thought Byron would be doing really well,
cause he's so light.
But he's in last place.
I don't know if he's too chill.
- Rick James, 33 chains.
Ocean air.
- I'm pretty humbled by the first round,
I was talking a lot of trash.
- James got a little bit of an ego on him,
and the track puts that ego to the test.
- Bart wrecked me, and Ify.
- I think they assessed the panel and I still beat him.
- That's a lot of fun,
those things are a lot faster than they look.
- Nolan beat me.
- And I'm kinda glad Nolan won,
cause everybody *beep* on Nolan.
- He was really cocky going in.
- My world, *beep*.
- [James] Nolan is like my protégé.
For him to beat me is infuriating.
- I think I've won the guys' respect a little bit.
- Nolan cannot win again, my strategy is to cheat.
- I'm dead last at the first race,
but I turned that corner,
I see Fast and Furious.
("Act a Fool" by Ludacris)
I was super excited.
What I didn't do on the track,
I'm gone do in the video game, baby. Let's go.
- [James] That chick is so hot.
- You stepped off the kart track,
and you stepped into Ify's track.
- [James] Boom. 2:19.
- 2:14
Woo!
- I like Ify, I'm glad he's winning.
- [Man] Oh, that's not my last name.
- I'm worried about video games.
- Been a while since I've played
the Fast and the Furious.
- I don't understand this game.
- You suck, you suck, you suck!
- I don't know if the physics of that are entirely accurate.
- Ah, ah, c'mon! Gimme that podium!
- It does make me feel better that Nolan sucks at this.
- Coin!
- I was feeling bad about my mans Byron,
he's just slamming to one end to the other.
It was almost cartoonish.
- [Byron] A glitch!
My license expired while I was driving.
- We're doing race wars.
- Going too fast, too furious.
And I'm acting a fool.
- If he kicks my ass.
- Woo! Aw, man.
Not only to dominate everyone,
Just got another high score.
I also got two top leaderboard scores.
- Losing to Ify, it was tough.
But I knew I could redeem myself
on the kart track on round two.
- Try not to wreck anybody into the wall this time, Bart.
- [Ify] I'm gone stay away from Bart,
because I already know what he's doing.
- [Bart] James. I want him in a good mood,
so I'd like him to do pretty well.
But, I also wanna put him into the wall.
- I gave that guy a hundred bucks to slow down Nolan.
I don't feel good about it, but I'll feel better when I win.
- I got a little tricky, trick trick, up my sleavy, sleavy.
- Thought you saw fast.
You're about to see furious.
(bright music)
- [Nolan] We line up on the grid, everything's good,
I'm in the number one position.
- I basically built Nolan.
I gave him my time, my love.
How does he repay me?
By beating me.
I can't live with that.
- The race started out beautifully.
- Green flag goes down,
I press the gas, and nothing happened.
- Nolan's car was slow, I don't know why.
Sometimes, you have to pay an attendant at a go-kart track
to shame your friends back into submission.
- My hopes of impressing the rest of the Car Boys
were going down the gutter.
- But Bart was cooking me.
- We're here for a team building exercise.
We're supposed to come out of this better than we came in.
I think getting put into the wall,
it really makes you grow as a person.
- Once that power came back, it was hammertime.
- Before I know it, Nolan's back on my tail.
- I knew I had to pass everybody
if I wanted to redeem myself.
- And he passes me.
It felt terrible.
As I saw my protégé building distance in front of me,
I felt overwhelmed with pride.
- I can't get around.
- Little Nolan is no longer Little Nolan.
'Cause he got into the 20's today.
I like to think that I had a little hand in that.
- Feeling good, improved a lot on my lap time.
- Hey Nolan, good race.
- Two weeks ago he's driving a camera car,
couldn't keep up with us.
You put him on these little go-karts,
he's a flash.
- Yeah! Let me out this condom.
- I saw you had some mechanical problems.
- [James] What happened?
- I saw the green flag drop, hit the gas,
- Yeah, oh I thought you didn't see it,
I thought it was maybe behind you.
- Nah, nothing happened.
- That is weird.
Pretty fast out there, guy.
- Thank you.
- It takes a big man to admit when he's beat.
And I am a big man.
Good race, buddy.
- I don't like go-karts.
- I think I have what it takes to be the number one driver
in the K1 Torrance facility.
- That was rough out there.
But you know what, I'm looking at the leaderboard
and I don't see anyone's name up there.
But if you go to Fast and Furious,
you're gonna see my name on there twice.
- I think me and my co-workers are closer as a group
because of this experience.
- What I was interpreting as cockiness
was just confidence, and that's okay.
- I gave him that little nudge,
all those times I was mean to him in the office.
- I'm gonna wear this medal proudly tomorrow at work,
let everyone know who's the top dog at Donut.
- I think he proved he deserved to be a little confident.
- I'm building this brilliant, strong young man.
- Am I worried about Nolan getting a big head?
If confidence is what translates into Donut,
I'm all for it.
- I think deep down, now they see me as less
of a subordinate, and more of an equal.
- But if he gets cocky in the office,
I'm putting him into the wall.
- I don't think the teasing will stop.
But now they know what I'm capable of.
- I am gonna take full credit for it.
- I don't know what's gonna come out of this.
I just don't want him to keep doing well.
- I think I've been accepted as a Car Boy, it feels great.
- I guess we learned a lot today.
- Yeah.
- Not only about racing, but about each other.
- Family.
- [All Together] Family.

- [Restaurant Worker] Hey!
- One cool thing about K1 Speed
is that they've got their own app.
- Where you can track world wide records,
your own improvement.
- And you can see that I'm number one right there.
Anytime I need a pick-me-up, now I can just look at the
rankings and remind myself of this wonderful day.
- [James] I wanna give a big shoutout and a thanks
to K1 Speed for allowing us to settle
some of our differences.
They got a great track, a gagillion locations.
It's really great for a date.
I wouldn't know cause I've never been on one.
Thanks for watching Car Boys!
