Bullrun in Orlando? I was driving down Orange avenue today in Downtown Orlando, and noticed I was right next to a Mustang Cobra (I think it said Shelby) at a stop light. The car had a guy, a girl, and a camera man in it, and was covered in stickers. It was the "Safety Car."
A block or so down as I was driving, I went past a number of Ferrari's, Lambo's, BMW's, and then a bunch of regular DD looking cars (Camry I think), etc...
They all had the sponsorship stickers covering them, along with the Bullrun sticker, and then a Bullrun booth was set up on the side of Orange Avenue.
Does anybody know what this is all about?

It's the actual bullrun. They started in Canada and their destination is the keys or miami. I don't think it's like the show where teams have to do challenges and crap, it's just like the Gumball Rally or the Cannonball run, except for the bullrun you have to be special and get invited.

i drive for mears. last night i picked up a guy at the 7-11 on colonial and magnolia. right near orange ave. it was steve from soulfly. he told me that he was competing in the bullrun. which was starting at the hardrock hotel and moving on to miami and then hte keys. they were supposed to go to miami internationl raceway or so i heard. someone mentioned jupiter (moroso) but for the most part i heard miami international raceway. SO, i got to take some pics of the cars, of steve and his car, i got to take a pic of me in the BMW steve was driving. it was awesome! i made such a good impression that he invited me to come back that morning to see hte race begin and meet a few of the drivers! awesome. so i come back this time with a disposable camera (i'm poor and don't own a digital) and i got pics of the charger, the lotus, the three lambos, the BMW's, the ferraris, the SUV's, and of course, team trans am's WS6. i got to meet the drivers of the charger, the drivers of the lotus, the drivers of the ferrari's and my favorite, Morgan, the girl from team trans am. aparantly her father was arrested last night for speeding. but he was out and going to meet her on the next leg of the trip. i have alot of pics and i have to get them developed and put to a cd so i can post em up.

My brother was at the club last night , he was hanging out with mike and morgan, i actually talk to mike on my brothers cell phone, he is one super cool guy , wish i could have met them in person though.
Yeah, I work in the Idrive area and went to go drop off a customer at the HardRock Hotel.. they had all the cars parked in the front valet area.. it was a bad-assed sight to see! They had a red WS6 there too along with a bunch of exotics and stuff. Didnt have a camera, but snapped a pic with the phone.

I'm vacationing in the Keys for a few days, and on the way down Friday morning I actually got caught right in the middle of the race. I've got a number of pictures and a video of a few cars passing me (Ferarri F430, a few Porche's, the chicks from SpikeTV's Bullrun in the scion, 2nd gen Trans Am) going over the bridge leading into marathon, I believe. I'll compress it and upload it when I've got more than a few minutes to spare.
