Only one more list race to go in the season and Chief has eyes fixed on ending at number one. After some unfortunate breakdowns, contention brews amongst the racers and Monza almost blows a gasket! Plus, with Ryan bored at number one and no one to race, he challenges Chuck to a golf cart race… Blindfolded.
