To celebrate 100th anniversary of the first flight by Wright brothers, teams from U.S., U.K. and France built flying machines capable of stop exactly at the red line located in the middle of a dry lakebed in California's Mojave Desert - using materials and tools in 1900s.

The ultimate way to deal with traffic jams would be to push the offending cars out of the way and go through. Well, for the High Flyers and Big Shots, that dream is about to come true. The will be building a machine that will power it's way through a gauntlet of cars. A bunch of cars have been strewn down a track. The team that has the fastest total time after 3 runs (and a different driver each time) through the cars will advance. However, if they go outside of the yellow boundaries on the sides of the track, they incur a ten second penalty. So it isn't just speed...it's precision as well. For the High Flyers, it's all about the traction. Using a monsterous truck for a base, they will add a second axle to the rear and wrap the two tires with tank treads. Combine a big engine and those massive footprints and put a big plow on the front and you have a bulldozer...in essence. However, adding a second axel isn't exactly a walk in the park. Neither will finding a big, reliable engine? This machine will have to be just plain tough! The Big Shots are going for power. A big truck chassis and a big engine will give them lots of power and strength to withstand any major collisions. However, their plow is going to resemble a cow catcher (like you used to see on old time locomotives). The trick is that they will put their blade at the rear and drive in reverse. This will protect the engine and give them some low-range power. Again, finding a good engine might be the problem.

It will be a hot time in the junkyard this episode as the Auto Amigos take on the Dirty Drivers in a fast and furious challenge to build a trike powered by a jet-engine. The race will consist of three trips down a one-eighth mile track...one at a time. The team that records the fastest time in any of their three trips will advance to the semi-finals. The Dirty Drivers are building a true jet engine on a lightweight frame. A propane tank will provide the gas and a spark plug will act as the ignition source. The key ingredient will be a turbo-charger from a truck. The turbo charger has two fans that turn in opposite directions. One fan will suck the propane into a combustion tank while the other will suck the heated air out and through a nozzle. If there's time, they also want to build an afterburner which should increase their speed. An afterburner ignites any remaining gasses in the chamber for added thrust. Time is NOT on their side. The Auto Amigos, on the other hand, are going for a thermo-jet engine. A car engine will be attached to a large fan. The fan will suck air into a large tube which will be funneled out the back. Around the back side of the fan are a series of nozzles which will spray a mist of gasoline into the tube. A spark plug will ignite the propane causing a jet of hot air (and flames) to shoot out the back. This is going to be heavy so a big, beefy, sturdy frame will be necessary. The weight might slow them down and cost valuable seconds.

In this episode, each team has to build a sled-puller tractor which has to be under 2000 lbs.

Both teams have just ten hours to build vehicles and devices to navigate their way through a mind-bending junk maze located somewhere within Mojave desert. But here's the catch: they won't be able to see a thing! Each team will have three attempts to feel their way blindfolded to victory. Whoever makes it the furthest, or completes it quickest, will win. Team members Rich, the Californian godfather of custom cars Kurt, a computer genius with a list of inventions as long as his beard Rosanna, a hot-tempered junk artist from San Francisco Johnny, a tough-as-nails New Yorker and master fabricator Mike, a machine-minded cop who has his own problems with authority Sig, a theatrical set builder who loves tools but hates taking the back seat During the race, nobody was able to get exactly to the goal, but Red team won by finishing the race with team's own vehicle being closest to the goal.

Both teams have only ten hours to build mobile weapon systems that can shoot down weather balloons — which are floating thirty feet above the ground.

Iron Maidens built a spring loaded catapult-like thrower, Jousters built a crossbow made from wood. In challenge day, first attempt by both teams failed to launch darts fell short. In the second attempt, Jousters fired the dart to the board, but hit just below the centre; the dart launched by Iron Maidens failed to reach target. In the final attempt, Jousters overpulled the trigger and broke the bow. As a desperate measure, Iron Maidens tried to fire the dart by putting the spring directly behind the dart. The dart launched by Iron Maidens still fell before reaching target, even more so than previous attempt. Team - Members Iron Maidens Jousters

Rockin' Rabble built on top of a pickup truck with a giant tank and a paddle pump. Hot Property built from a van with a smaller tank and pump. In challenge day, Hot Property won the rescue race, Rockin' Rabble led on barbecue grill event. In third race, Rockin' Rabble's vehicle's pump broke, so the teammates had to use water bucket. Hot Property eventually ran out of water, but not before dousing most of the flame. Hot Property won the third round and the match.

In the second semi-final, three policemen from Hampshire (Cops and Bodgers) and a team from the Royal Navy (Destroyers) built curling machines that can skim full size, wheel-less cars across an ice rink.

Four teams scour junkyards from California to the Vegas strip, facing huge challenges along the way. Under the new rule, each team has total of 12 hours to gather materials from a junkyard, then carry the materials to modify the team vehicle elsewhere. After each match, each team will retain its own vehicle to race in next match. In this episode, they have to modify their vehicles to go downhill from Sierra Nevada mountains and pass a giant log. Team - Members Anarchy (black) - Chopper Rat, Lin-Dog, Brandon Farm Boys (green) - Chaney, Stupe, Grandpa Fire Power (red, from Kentucky) - Fletch, Keith, Crusher Metal Maidens (pink, from San Francisco) - Flybutter, Rebecca, Kiki Final scores Anarchy: 0 (total 0), Farm Boys: 3 (total 3), Fire Power: 0 (total 0), Metal Maidens: 4 (total 4).

In the second part of The Great Race, the contestants rebuild their vehicles to drive over desert dunes of Death Valley. Fire Power chose to cut down the vehicle and convert it into a half-tread truck; Anarchy got bigger wheels, a nitrous kit, and cut down the weight of the hearse; Metal Maidens and Farm Boys each put a Baja skidpad under the vehicle, with Farm Boys cutting down its own truck. In race day, Fire Power's tread had fallen before the match began, so the vehicle was run without treads. Anarchy won the race, followed by Farm Boys, Metal Maidens, Fire Power. Final scores Anarchy: 4 (total 4), Farm Boys: 3 (total 6), Fire Power: 0 (total 0), Metal Maidens: 2 (total 6).

In the final challenge, the teams convert their vehicles to travel across Colorado River, but that's only the beginning. To win the race, the score leading team members must also drive the vehicle to Vegas, and cross the finish line at the Flamingo hotel. At race day, Farm Boys passed the river first, followed by Metal Maidens and Fire Power. Anarchy's vehicle stuck at river bottom, and was forced to quit. At the second half the trip, the surviving teams retained their ranks. Final scores Anarchy: 0 points (4 total), Farm Boys: 4 points (10 total), Fire Power: 2 points (2 total), Metal Maidens: 3 points (9 total).

Teams led by Hackett and Colonel Dick have to build assault vehicles capable of driving over several types of rough terrain and breaking down walls to rescue their captains from captivity.

The challenge: fire bowling balls at targets 100 yards away. Hackett's team takes an early lead, but his plans are almost derailed when he loses a team member to heat stroke.

The teams have to put out fires in a dumpster, car and pallet from 20' as fast as the can.

The teams have to build a car that pulls a wheelie down the drag strip. Fastest time on a combined straight and slalom course wins, with a tie breaker is a drag race.
