Ya for real, those QA1 adjustable shocks are awesome, did you guys have them set up for road racing? Should get some stiffer springs like Stranos Performance springs. Eibach are good but you can do better

Congrats on another good run on the 3rd episode!

The F150 guys don't pissed at you.

I'd also like to know how fast you all are driving. I notice the show doesn't show the speed. I am sure it wouldn't be good to have a show where breaking the law is expected. I originally thought it was like a rally where if you go over or under on time you are penalized. But now I see it is who gets there first regardless of how fast.

Does each competitor have a chase/camera car? If so, what are the chase vehicles?

For those that missed last night's episode. Here is a recap. You can also go watch it on SpikeTV.com.

3/27/2007

Tonight we saw Team Trans Am continuing to kick ***! Morgan drove the car like a champ in the mountains while Team Mustang had trouble keeping up. The Mustang's problems didn't stop there though. After losing a rod they had to be hauled to the checkpoint.

Team Lamborghini hit the BIGGEST raccoon I've ever seen that did a lot of damage to their car and were put into the challenge against Team F150. Who would've thought that a FORD weighing in at 6500 lbs. would beat one of the fastest and best handling cars on the planet, the AWD Lamborghini Murcielago.

Cesar and Ralph of Team Chevy managed to win the challenge because Team Olds couldn't follow directions. After taking their time and almost losing a "mexican" as Ralph described, they came out with a win and retained their 8th place position.

At the end Team Chevy was once again saved by the misfortune of another team. Team Mustang was the third team to be eliminated on Bullrun.

Go Team Trans Am!

That's what insurance is for. I'm sure they can afford to fix the car, after all the car is what, $350,000ish?

Yeah I'm starting to wonder that as well. The Ford pickup is always in the top 5. The only car I see speeding for quite some distance is the Lotus.

yeah right, i bet their insurance company is going to fix that car after they find out it was in Bullrun. its the same concept if you wreck at the race track.
