The Friday, February 18 episode of VH1’s “RuPaul’s Drag Race” will feature the ladies putting the pedal to the metal when they compete in this week’s Maxi Challenge, starring in the original drag race soap opera, “The Daytona Wind,” which will be directed by the reality show’s host and star RuPaul Charles himself.

In a sneak peek clip from the upcoming episode, RuPaul tells the ladies, “To be part of my Dynasty, you need to put the ‘D’ in ‘Alice,’ the ‘B’ in ‘The Old and the Beautiful,’ and the ‘Y’ in ‘The ‘Hung and the Restless.’ Remember ‘As The Stomach Turns,’ so do the ‘Gays of our Lives.’”

The Maxi Challenge is the part of the game in which the contestants are judged for their ability to outperform their competition and helps separate the tops from the bottoms. The winner of the challenge often receives a tip prize of $5,000, among other prizes, and the two who didn’t perform the best are left to lipsynch for their lives as they fight to stay in the competition for another week. The loser is sent home.

“This sizzling soap opera centers around three rival drag race dynasties: the Davenports, the O’Haras, and the Michaels,” RuPaul says teasing the acting challenge which references former drag queens whose drag names ended with Davenport, O’Hara, or Michaels.

Winning last week’s Maxi Challenge, drag queen Jorgeous was put in charge of assigning roles to the other queens. Considering the growing feud between Daya Betty and Jorgeous as highlighted in last week’s episode, and is amplified this week as shown in the clip below, we definitely expect someone to get the part they won’t like.

Watch the preview clip below and tell us what you think the drama will be like in “The Daytona Wind” below.

Featuring 14 queens competing for the grand prize of $100,000 and the title of “America’s Next Drag Superstar,” “RuPaul’s Drag Race” airs Fridays at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT on VH1.

The show is currently airing its 14th season.
