Bullrun recap. I know how to pump freaking gas! Jeez!

So, I’m sure a lot of you saw the Bullrun Premiere last night on Speed. It was so awesome! I am so excited that I got to be a part of something so cool. Of course, while I was out there it wasn’t always peaches and cream…as you can tell. Seems like my first challenge was to get the freaking gas pumps to work! I just want to make sure that everyone knows that I know what an odometer is! However, on the East Coast we don’t have to type in our odometer reading to pump gas (or maybe it was the gas cards we were using) :) Nor do we have to make sure that the pump is completely sealed in the tank before we can pump. I had no idea that the 2 coast could be so different, but then again I didn’t leave South Florida til I was 17. Who knew that leaves actually fell from trees in Autumn? Not me :D

Anyhow, I was very sad to see Team VW go. They definitely had the most Bullrun team spirit. The irony given the story is that they made Bullrun fun in the exact opposite way that Team Lambo did. VW was there to make sure everyone was having a good time. They wanted to win, but not at the expense of others. They just wanted to do a good job themselves and it really sucks to see them go out over a starter issue. On the sunny side, that dang VW makes 300 whp! That is just amazing.

In the end, Bullrun isn’t about spirit, unfortunately. It’s not even really about excellent driving. It’s about being smart. It’s about playing the game. It’s about doing what it takes to win. Some of us play by the rules. Some of us bend them. I suggest you watch the rest of the season because you have no idea! In all honesty I was there and I have no idea. We don’t know what the teams did while we weren’t there. It’s gonna be pretty awesome to see!!!!

Oh and in case you didn’t get to see yet, go to Team Lexus and then find the video tab next to the photos at the bottom of the page and watch the behind the scenes footage! Hilarious. http://www.speedtv.com/programs/bullrun/meet-the-teams/

    I had to work, but DVR’d it and just watched it! It was great, but the take sooo long to tell/do things (for dramatic effect). What the Lambo guys did was really shady, but I have to admit it was also really smart (and funny), but not such a great idea to do it the first day. Anywho, glad to see an SC on TV. :thumbsup:
