910: A SQUARE IN A SOCIAL CIRCLE

Missions:
10: Monster Truck Racing

My comments:
   The episode starts as usual with James and Kathryn fighting about where they are going to stay the night in the Shasta or in the hotel. James wants to go to a hotel because they have beds. That night they get a clue to go to Augusta Georgia. The next morning thy find out that they are going to be part of a Monster Truck event. Then they find out that their competition is going to the Greeks from University of Georgia.
   The first event is a obstacle course in which everyone competes. First everyone has to push a monster truck tire to the finish line and then they have to run through some tires and last they have to push a monster truck to the finish line. Unfortunately Road Rules loses. The next event is a crash course with mini trucks. Holly is chosen to do this one. The goal of the event is to break through banners with the truck and the team with the most banners wins.
   The next event is a drag race using the mini trucks again. The driver this time is Theo. Right off the start Theo gets the lead and ends up winning. The score is tied now. The last event is a race around the track with large bumps on it. The first team up is the Greeks and they get booed because they drive around the track very slowly. The driver for Road Rules is James. When James takes off he drives aggressively and ends up breaking part of the suspension, but he did score the quickest time. It was later decided that James was disqualified so the Greeks get the points and win.

What MTV had to say about the episode:
   James tells Theo about his dislike for the girls in the group and his difficulty in dealing with traveling in the RV with people he doesn't get along with.
   The next mission brings the Road Rulers to Augusta where they are greeted by an arena full of monster trucks.
   The Road Rulers must compete against a team of fraternity and sorority members from Georgia in several events involving monster trucks.
   After three events, the two teams are tied and the level of competition continues to grow.
   In the final event, James races a monster truck aggressively over four feet of bumps, beating the other team, but damaging the truck.
   The referee decides to disqualify James' win because of the damage caused to the truck, giving the Greek team the overall $6000 win in the competition.
