Just want to throw this out there. The New bullrun show begins tonight, but I just received an email that they will be doing a casting call in April of 2009 for the Bullrun III. I would love to enter myself and my vehicle in this. I have no problem thrashing my ride around lol. I know my ride can take the punishment. Only problem I have is I dont have a partner to do it with. None of my friends are into this hobby let alone even able to drive a car. So Who on here can drive and have 3 weeks vacation available for the end of the summer in the event we get picked? The way to get in is I have to submit Photos of myself my copilot, and the vehicle, We have to do a 5 min video on why we want to be in the Bullrun. With some help we might be able to get another F-body on the show. So any you guys interested get in touch with me. We have till April to submit everything.

Here is the AD!!!!

Casting will begin in April 2009.

Filming dates are not yet confrimed but you will need to be available for 3 weeks for filming in late summer 2009 if selected.

Where possible, upload a video of up to 5 minutes long (max) with you and your co-driver explaining, who you are, why you want to do Bullrun III etc.

The more we know about you, your car and your personalities the easier it is for us to make a decision about you for the show.

If you're precious about damaging your car, don't bother applying! Go hard or go home!

That would be awesome if you got on the show. I think you might have a tough time getting picked since there was a WS6 on season 1

He meant the OP I think.

On a side note, there's a silver C5 hardtop in this season, so j0n might have a hard time too.

Sounds good. I love the responses. I think with a bit of help from any camera and computer savy entrepreneurs from our members here we could put together a great video for us to stand out. My ride is getting a few modifications at the moment so I cant drive it, but when its ready I will do a nice photo shoot. We have a little bit of time to get it done. What you think of todays episode and the cars?

I DVR'ed it last night and I'm watching it now...do they proofread the text they put up? A LS1 isn't a 350 and they spelled dual wrong in dual exhaust lol

My first impressions....everyone seems cool except the EVO guys, I hope those salad tossers get bounced early.

Anti_Rice_Guy

No, they do terrible with grammar. The C5 does 0-60 in 10.5 seconds, it says, but the VW bus does it in 5.5 with 120 hp. Stuff like that. I agree the EVO guys are annoying as hell.

So much for Porsche being uber-durable :D

My bet it'll be down to the Camaro & Pantera.

i would try to enter my car, but with 160,000+ miles on her...i dont think she'd last very long, would be an epic fail for the GM name on national TV lol

i liked this show the couple times i saw it last season...there was an old buick in there i think , i just remember their car broke down at like every challenge lol. and yeah, evo guys are probably gay (i havent seen this season yet) but let me guess about the evo guys, 1. they think theyre the most awesome 2. they got mass amounts of hair gel 3. guido as hell! 4. gay? 5. gay? 6. oh i bet theyre gay

damn ricers, they annoy me

Both are sweet cars!

I'm betting Pantera will break somewhere along the line. I think the Solstice will go pretty far, same with Avalanche. F150 got very far last season. Camaro is built by that father/son, who make stuff like Foose style.

Not that I know of yet. Not that I see on Speed's site like Spike had it last season.l

You don't know what Bullrun is? Dude, you're missing out. It's an automotive competition feature some BAD ASS cars...basically it's like any rally race..there's checkpoints and the slowest 2 cars(plus one other selected car) have to compete in a competition to stay alive.

I'm not sure if you can find the last season's episodes online but well worth the time to watch them.

Most car shows IMO suck...this is seriously one of my favorite shows.

I kinda know what it is, but like isn't that the show where last year I think the one guy had his car airlifted to the end?

Frosty

Not air lifted, it was on a flatbed, it was kinda funny lol

To bad for the jersey boys. I met one of them at a show with that porche. There wasnt really nothing special about it. As you can see the guy wasnt to familiar with his own ride since he missed his gears and jammed it. Which cost them the event. I would come in last just to have fun and do the events. Did you see the previews for next weeks course for those who come in last? i mean it just looks sick.

To make things a little more interesting, Bullrun rules favor the smart, often punishing the overeager:
- No GPS or satellite navigation systems can be used
- No cell phones
- No laptop computers
- No radio or CD player
- Speeding leads to severe penalties; arrests lead to immediate disqualification
- Each day, cars can only leave when instructed
- Cars must start and finish each day under their own power, or the power of their driversmake sure you know the rules before signing up guys

And unless I can find it online I can't watch this season, I don't get SPEED in my apartment :(
