NE1 watching Bullrun?
« on: March 13, 2009 - 12:20:09 PM »
Poor team Dart rolled thier car after the completed the challenge!Hyped up driver got a little carried away and made a  big mistake.Hopefullly they can fix it and keep going as they are carrying the Mopar banner.Team Evo did even worse and totaled the front end of thier car by not staying on the coarse at the end.Glad to see those two idiots get the boot!  :wave:

Is it the same show that Goldberg tried to do a few years ago? Or did they change it up a bit?

   You would think that the 50 year dude driving that Dart would be smart enough to do his "endzone dance " away from the concrete blocks he told the other team to avoid. Unfortunate, but dumb is dumb.

Not sure why but this one just doesn't have the same attraction that the first one did. Just seems like the teams of the first Bull Run were much more interesting and Yea, the guy in the Dart was a prime idiot. He was speechless in explaining himself.

I agree Bullrun Season 1 was more about the cars. This season...all the stupid Black Magic mentions and commericals DURING THE EPISODE are getting annoying. Like last night, Team Solstice is talking about what's going on and the camera guy is zooming in on the guy cleaning the wheels and the Black Magic bottle. It's dumb.

I never saw the first season as it was on a channel I don`t get so I can`t compare them.Like any TV show it is all about commercials both in the show and during breaks but it`s way better than watching dancing with the stars with the wife.At least the dart driver manned up, admitted his stupid mistake and moved on while the EVO idiot just made excuses and his partner didn`t even show up at the final recap and was back at the hotel boohooing!  :'(

 Did Goldberg ever finish his 65 A-990 inspired Coronet?

I just caught Bullrun this weekend.  Not being much of a TV watcher, I had never heard of it, nor seen the previous season.  I saw two episodes - The one where the Ferrari was eliminated, and the one where the Evo was eliminated.  Seems like a more interesting show than most of the 'reality' shows, and something that would be fun to actually DO, instead of watch!

Darn shame what they did to that Dart, though.  The guy was on about how stupid the Evo guys were for hitting the concrete, then did his 'endzone dance' right next to the concrete.  Smooth   :(

I wonder how they selected the cars?  Seems that something little and economical (like an Evo or Solstice) would have some inherant advantages for fuel economy and maneuverability.

I definitely think it would be fun to do.I wish the car clubs would do more road rally type events than just shows where most guys just hang around and polish and armor all day long-boring!

I had a chance to check out the latest episode on the repeat Sunday. Pretty sad what happened to the Dart.  I hope they can get it back together in time but someone mentioned a shock tower was bent = not good

Did anyone notice the cracked bondo on top of the roof?  Maybe not the nice car we thought it was..

It is no show poodle but I don`t hink it was meant to be.Looks like it does pretty well against a lot more modern and exotic machines.There is a thread on Moparts and the kid from Team Dart has posted about it.

 Geez, some of those guys over at moparts are more concerned that the Dart had a little bondo on it.
Are you kidding? Who really gives a sh!t about that? How shallow.
It was a nice Mopar.....that's all  :thumbsup:
Cars in IMMACULATE condition usually are not going to be in a run like that.
 Maybe some of these showboats should enter their trophy piece in the run next year......bondo free and all  :dupe:
