Default Bull Run Week 7: 04-24-07

Another week down, another team gone. This one in my opinion was a more or less uneventful episode. But again Team Trans Am came in 1st for both rounds. Went for a time bonus to seal th deal. I think when there are less teams its not as exciting since there are less people, less drama.

Team Honda had a shot but alot of in-car drama, they never could get their **** together and they now out. I was hoping Olds or Lotus would go but I think its going to be one of them next time.

I see T/A and F-150 going all the way.

Discuss.

The July HPP article had an interview with 'em. They said something along the lines the show will be decent towards the end. But they couldn't get them to say anything. I tell you what it must be great to have a Daddy who owns a Pontiac dealership !

yeah but what happens when team lotus purposely takes all 6 hours on the first leg... gets thrown in the challenge, and wins and puts someone way back in the pack...It's risky, but genius

LOL at video. You know they got on because who doesn't want to watch a hot blond beat on a F-body. (No offense Mike/Morgan if you read this )

I have to admit I've been watching the show progress. It's fairly entertaining but a lot has to do with luck and avoiding the challenges.

The TA from what I understand is making a little over 400rwhp and is still running a 4l60E.

No it used to be a hotcam, I beleive it's a low 23x cam now.

There is a post somewhere where Mike actually explains everything done to the car at the time of the rally.

688hp was based on a 408 S/C setup that they decided against for reliability.

I have to agree, that nothing much happened this last episode. But I'm going to stick with it till the end. My Charger Boys are still going strong!! I was worried there for a bit, cause of the long stretches. But they are holding their own. I'm actually starting to like the Olds team! They may be knuckleheads but they are getting the job done!!

I see it as a 50/50 shot either Lotus or Olds go. WHo knows, the previews are always missleading.
