Well… it’s over. Bullrun Season II has finally come to a close with a grand finale between team Corvette, Avalanche and Shelby. To give you a quick overview, the season went something like this:

Episode 1: All teams meet and try to size each other up. Team Evo makes a big impression by acting like tools, instantly pissing off all the other teams  and becoming the show’s first “bad guys”. The challenge contained team Shelby, Ferrari and Porsche. Team Porsche had clutch problems and ended up going home due to a missed shift in the challenge.

Last night’s episode brought out the fight in the final four competitors of this season’s Bullrun. Team Avalanche, Corvette, VW and Shelby all stepped to the plate. In the beginning, Team Shelby jumped out of the gate with flying colors and came in first at the checkpoint in Scottsdale, AZ followed by Teams Avalanche, Corvette and VW.

From there it was onto checkpoint two at Firebird International Raceway. Spiro from Team Shelby touted himself as navigator extraordinaire, until he forgot how to read a map and brought them to Phoenix International Raceway as opposed to Firebird. Spiro had an alibi, however, the naked ass of a big man and how he shot them the moon and threw off their concentration.

Team Avalanche came in first to Firebird, thus putting everyone else in the Challenge. Corvette, VW and Shelby duked it out in a rather entertaining competition where they had to back up, spin around and run through some light polls. Team VW’s operation Butterfly was a good idea, and honestly, I thought they nailed it. Apparently I was wrong because they got the boot. Oh well, can’t win em all I suppose.

Corvette, Avalanche and Shelby remain. It’ll be a good match up, so stay tuned until next week’s final elimination. Team VW: sorry guys, ya’ll were a blast to watch, and you should be proud—you’ve done things in a VW Bus that have never been done before…

Episode II of Bullrun aired last night and although I still don’t like the new format, the show is getting better. The participants are beginning to come out of their shells and tensions seem to be heating up. Most of that heat, though, is directed towards the EVO. So far, aside from Chris being overly obnoxious, I really don’t find them that bad, in fact I kinda’ like them for the sheer entertainment value they provide.

Elvis and Steve from Team Strange are also up there on my fun to watch list, as Steve is just plain funny in a very understated way. Elvis, well… I just have to respect a guy who doesn’t give sh*t and flips the bird to conformity. I really hope these guys hang in there for awhile. Then there’s Brooke and Amanda, the two cuties from Arkansas. Brook swears like a NYC dock worker which is funny as hell, and Amanda knows her way around a map, which is why Team Lexus won last nights stage. I’m diggin’ these two chicks.
