Speed channel's bullrun
 
Surprised I haven't heard anyone talking about this. Anyone watching? I wasn't expecting to like it, but I got into it last season.

I've been watching it, it's not very good, but I'm a sucker for anything with nice cars. I don't know where they found these folks, but they are clearly casting for drama more than actual 'car people'. I'm glad the Evo guys are out, though it sucks that they screwed up their car. The VW guys are idiots, and the Camaro guys seem a bit 'off', but otherwise it's okay. Oh, and Bill Goldberg has the worst lines ever, it's hard to take him seriously when he tires so hard to sound tough.

I like that they have a good mix of cars, to prove it's not all about speed. In fact, last year it came down to a 4th gen trans am and an f15. That was crazy how the evo guys demolished the car. That's why you never let your friends drive your vehicle! The "friend" didn't even seem to really take responsibility for it. Agreed on goldberg, it's way over the top, to the point it makes him cheesy.

i just got this Channel this weekend !!!!!

frost 03-16-2009 09:22 PM

Now you can watch drama queens race around the country too!

nogoodname 03-16-2009 09:25 PM

i'm so excited...what's up with team EVO


I'm liking team Lexus a lot

frost 03-16-2009 09:27 PM

The dude who owns the ebo let his buddy drive it, and he crashed it into a ~2ft concrete block. Totaled it. 3rd or 4th episode.

nogoodname 03-16-2009 09:30 PM

the Lexus has colour matched 20 inch rims....but no lip....damn

Evolved 03-16-2009 09:36 PM

The Evo guys post of Evom. There's a lot of interesting behind the scene stuff there.

Apparently no one knew that those concrete slabs were there. They were allowed to walk the course multiple time but weren't allowed beyond the fence. They thought they could run straight through the fence and then run out into the grass but that turned out not to be the case. Since it was a timed event running straight through would have been the best approach as that was the faster more direct route. And then was was some issue about the producers not give the Evo back to the owner.

We'll see how it all plays out.

nogoodname 03-19-2009 04:37 PM

what am i missing....give me a recap.... i missed some episodes


lol...auto soap opera

nogoodname 03-22-2009 07:45 PM

everyone wants to gang up on the Lexus girls.....lol...not cool

frost 03-22-2009 07:49 PM

This show amazes me, because you would peg all these cars as being the winners, but the lexus girls are walking away with this show doing practically nothing.

nogoodname 03-22-2009 07:52 PM

thats why i like them

nogoodname 03-22-2009 07:52 PM

they all have their own start and end time......so everyone is racing and arguing while the Lexus girls are winning easily

frost 03-22-2009 07:57 PM

You wouldn't even know they were there if they didn't keep winning. No drama, no bitchin, just driving from one place to the other. Seems simple!

You will have to keep us posted!

nogoodname 03-22-2009 08:00 PM

i would wreck all of them with my amazing orienteering skills..just need a map and a compass...lol

frost 03-24-2009 07:01 PM

Your partner is definitely definitely an importance decision. The ferrari guy brought his pampered, moronic wife. I'm sure he would have lasted longer with a better partner.
The vette guy's partner could have cost him the show wanting to stop for fireworks in the last episode. They were in the bottom, just lucky they drove better than the camaro guys. But, a stupid decision.

Over at the evo boards, I guess the evo guys are sharing their story that they are trying to sue speed because no one knew the concrete blocks were there.

Who knows why, the site has really gone down hill over the years.

frost 03-26-2009 09:55 PM

Lame mods can really eff a site up. Just ask my350 :stirthepot:

The VW guys were doushes to any body who "cheeted".

I think Evo should at least get speed to pay for repair I mean they walked the course but not the end outside the gate

I think bear and spiro were by far the best drivers

Luv'n my Z 01-16-2010 10:52 PM

Frost what's up with your rep points??

I saw they were replaying this again today, hopefully that means they are fixing to have another season. :excited:

My rep was so high it was causing the site to go slow last week. Had to abandon all my rep so the site could run again. Sometimes you gotta make sacrifices.
