The Mustang bent a pushrod, the Lambo hit a raccoon. Now here’s the inside scoop from Mr. Angry.

opinions are like arse hole’s and everyones got one, for some reason I want to throw mine down.. So here i go, and I understand that seeing what i do on the show is very limited.

- team 1 : It’s awesome watching you guys, it seems like you bite down and go when you have to and just generally have a lot of fun. Carp diem and all that. Truly great and it really shown in your challenge

- team 2 : the show really doesn’t seem to show these guys much.. I don’t know what to think until tonight (eps 4), and honestly I still don’t. It seems like spike was avoiding them , perhaps some discrimination there? In any case eps 4’s challenge made them look like they totally do not know their car. biggest mods: exhaust, short shifter.. May not know mechanics period.

- team 3: I don’t know anyone who wont be sad to see these guys go. We all feel it’s coming, but they are such characters. Eps 4 showed that there navigation really hurts them though.. and it’s been showing here and there throughout, though this is the first time it’s shown up quite so major.

- team 4: There was one ep where they seemed kind of pissy with one another; but overall seems like a really solid team and they have seem to have great navigational wits. I’d be the last one too expect a truck to do so well.

- team 5: Goodbye, didn’t really get to know you.. maybe you felt cheated because you didn’t’ understand someone was leaving so soon? Maybe you thought you could sit one out and figure it out later? I don’t know but I think I saw enough of you

- Team 6: Beautiful car.. truly.. and this from a guy who will most likely never own a ford (parents rebuilt countless mustangs.. as much as they put into them they were always broke.. doesn’t make me feel great about the company). They seem like good guys.. but coming from a viewers stand point they were annoying to me. I was glad to see them go simply so that i didn’t have to watch them anymore. Harsh I know, but true. And the footage of their challenge w/ the very “useful” advice by the navigator leads me to believe they wouldn’t handle pressure well.

- team 7: eps 4: I totally understand why they wouldn’t answer their radio. Who would, it seems like they were isolated from any help or alliance on every show and now that people wanted them of course they were going to dodge that. I can’t blame them for it.

- Team 8: God i would love to have that car… it’s funny to hear driver of a car with a 1.8 liter toyota engine talking trash about tuners though. Episode 4 makes the driver look to be a bit of a jerk, but I cannot say he is unjustified. It sucks being on a long trip and having people tell you needless little things when your driving. Having a navigator for directions is one thing. The challenge makes me curious about there overall driving abilities.

- team 9: good charisma in the team.. it just doesn’t let up.. the trans am is a sweet ride too. Honestly in my top 3 teams between charisma and skill. I don’t know about overall, but in the challenge the father grit his teeth and did what had to be done. In the normal driving they can banter without totally getting pissed at each other.. yup right up there with you and the f150.

- team 10: It’s awesome that he held out as long as he did.. it really is. I would have been irritated to see someone buy that kind of car and walk away with the whole thing because of it, but I feel that he has grown through the series (which in real time had been pretty short I imagine). Perhaps it’s just that you get to see more of them instead of just the outer crust. I wouldn’t’ say he’s among the best drivers on here, but at least not the worst.

- team 11: olds.. impatient.. seemingly untalented.. simply not fun to watch. Next on my list of want to see gone; when I first started watching i would rather have seen the lambo gone before these guys.. not so much anymore

- team 12: I would have loved to see what that car could do.. it’s a shame what happend. These guys obviously had some experiance driving.. knew a lot about the car.. had worked on it.. and fortune just took them away. I’m not saying they should have won (not saying they should lose either :P ), but I would have liked to have watched them and their machine in action.

Randoms: Oregon has some crazy roads.. I grew up there and have traveled the NW fairly extensively. The coastal roads are truly beautiful; When I watched so many people chose to go down the coast I almost collapsed laughing though… The traffic can be so choking on those little roads. Well, awesome scenery anyway.

Hey man, the show is awsome.
Your charger, the lambo, and the exige are my favorite cars on the show. im a pretty big car guy myself but, i cant afford to do get anything like that. I drive a 2003 subaru forester, wich dont get me wrong is an awsome car, but its not to fast. My friends got some cool cars one has a lexus IS350, another has a mustang gt/cs black on black. And another one of my friends had a beautiful VW R32 with about $18,000 into it ( he made all the money himself, and did all the work himself). The thing is some old lady hit him going about 50mph a couple days ago and the car is totaled and he is still in the hospitol, but the doctors say hell be alright. But ya love the show and tell them to film more of yalls 3 cars, hope one of yall win. and if you can give me a shout out on the show, that would we awsomwe, good luck

Garou – I was asked to comment on the show thats why I’m doing it, so try not to get upset over it.

Everyone on cardomain who views this blog has their favorite team, it may be us, it may not be – no worries for us either way. We just hope people enjoy the show and I’m here to give the CarDomain members a little insight into what it was really like to be on Bullrun, that’s all.

Cheers everyone – Mike

Hi Mike
The show was great. Better then before, even the light rodeo since I at least knew what the drivers were supposed to do. I missed the free swag for guessing who would be out, but no big deal. Mary and I spent part of today at the Caesars Palace Forum shops looking at exotic autos. They have some nice rides there.
Best of luck to you and yours,
Jerry
