I love the Lexus girls. They sure can drive! Not to mention they're pretty easy on the eyes wink.gif lol
smooth1
Yeah I watch this also. They aren't doing badly! did you see the Evo smack the cement barrier thing? and then the Dart team rolled thier car when it wasn't even a race anymore? Man that was stupid! But very entertaining! laugh.gif
jcrome04
I can't believe the Evo guys plowed their car into that! It's totaled! How will they get home!!! lol


And stupid team Dart rolled the car.. wow.. I couldn't believe that!!!!!! He doesn't even know how to control his car... and he's on Bullrun.. what the heck hahaha.

I think I should be on Bullrun on Team LS laugh.gif

Best show ever. For some reason they hate Lexus though, except the ISF.

I thought they loved the IS 350 and hated the ISF?......no? Anyway, who cares, even the ISF in it's first year wasn't that far behind a car that has had 30+ years to evolve. I don't think that's to bad. But it's funny to hear thier opinions on different car mfgrs. and models. Apparently they aren't that hot over Audi's either.
JENunnez
They did not like the ISF, they said it had to many gears.... huh.gif
I don't think they like asian cars to much, or most any car for that matter.
jcrome04
They do however love the Renault Avantime... who saw that coming?? lol

Rocco B.
hahaha well they do like Nissan which is Japanese. Clarkson broke his neck while driving it because it was so shifty.

Anyone keeping track of the top 25 times on the lap? I keep meaning to freeze frame the DVR and write em down, but I always forget to. Where did the GTR land?
jcrome04
GT-R is #13! biggrin.gif

That car is so quick. The 0-60 time is just unimaginable.

yeah, that's a pretty sick car, but it's also like $700K. I can reach a GTR. All the cars on that list are very nice though. I don't think there are any up there that I wouldn't like to have. (For awhile to have fun with.) I wouldn't want to have to drive it back and fourth to work. LOL!!
Rocco B.
Especially the Ariel Atom. What the heck do you do if it rains or a rock hits you. "OUCH OH MY *GODsh* THERE IS A FRIGGIN ROCK IN MY ARM!!!"

Wear chainmail?? huh.gif

I just think it's so funny that the ISF is faster than Porsche 911 GT3!, and the Mitsu Evo is faster than a BMW M3! I wouldn't have guessed those correctly.

I just watched the TG episode where they time lapped the Koenigsegg CCX without the spoiler, the mfgr said they would take the car back, fix it and return it with proper rear downforce. I see one the list it did infact lap much faster, although I haven't seen that episode yet.

GOOOOOOOOODBYE Camaro! lol


Can no one drive well enough to spin the car around? I know when I was younger I loved the E-brake. (and still do when my buddy's get loaner cars) laugh.gif

Season Three here we come. I cant wait to drive your LS! LOL
BTW I can do the spin into reverse on my brothers '95 mustang. Can't wait to try that on an LS.
smooth1
The Camaro was a nice car too. But he wouldn't have won anyway. I can't beleive none of them have shown me they can drive yet.
jcrome04
Well of course the yeti man can't drive in his girlfriend's boots! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif lol


I'll just write them a letter saying...


Dear SPEED,

I'm a helluva guy. I can drive. I will win Bullrun.

Sincerely,

Don't forget to include a picture of your dog dressed up as Penelope Pitstop sitting behind the wheel of your ever so race ready KTM X-bow roadster! Dude, your in!!! Garrenteed!
jcrome04
Haha I can't wait to start! biggrin.gif biggrin.gif




Oh and I must mention... Goldberg's choice of sun glasses really *BLEEP* me off!!! censored.gif


Like John Lennon's on steroids! laugh.gif

Goodbye Dart!


If you roll your car when you do a donut... youuu might drive a dodge dart!
jcrome04
Finally Soltice is toast biggrin.gif


I was tired of listening to that guys wife nag the $#!t out of him!

TURNTURNTURNTURNTURN UUUUGGGGGHHHH I'M NOT GIVING YOU DIRECTIONS ANYMORE!


Hahaha cool.gif

I can't believe the Lexus chix havn't been put in a challenge that would be fun to see. And man, how about that VW bus on that dirt course that was too funny... I lil error by dart did the trick. Man I love to do some these challenges, they should set them up somewhere and allow public access at a fee...

I bet there would be plenty of takers...

Althought with out the nice purse at the end, why mess up ones ride... OK with rental cars :-)

Lexus girls are getting a free ticket to the end biggrin.gif

Hotty chics usually do. But I think it's more because they aren't viewed as a real threat, and the last few challenges have been between enemies. Corvette and Avalanche now hate each other. And if Corvette keeps winning, then Avalanche keeps going in the challenges. LOL!! Now if only Avalanche could win a leg, so Corvette would be in the next challenge and Lexus would have another free week. I would lauph my *** off if those girls turned out to be semi pro race car drivers or stunt car pros or something. That would be awsome! I would love to see the Lexus girls whoop that Avalanche butt!! LOL!!
jcrome04
Avalanche is stupid. They really are beginning to annoy me.

I thought they were cool at first, but now they're just stupid red necks that like to pick fights. Just like all the dumb hicks where I live.

They're idiots and I hope Corvette AND Avalanche are BOTH in a challenge, and Corvette kicks their @$$!!!!!! hahahaha



I bet the Lexus girls are hiding something up their sleeves smile.gif
jcrome04
was Bullrun on last night???

My DVR didn't record it.... censored.gif
jcrome04
Well it WASN'T on last week thank God! biggrin.gif

Round 8 tonight cool.gif


booooooooooo yah
SKperformance
Funny i don't find the girls good looking . They look like 2 plain girls from arkansa to me.
I am still wondering why theywould go on bull run with such large wheels and not facotr in the *BLEEP* happens factor.
Oh well atleast on Sunday i spent 7 hours straight getting caught up on the show.
jcrome04
Lexus is gone sad.gif


Goodbye cutie pies! crybaby.gif

Man the first challenge they were in they got killed too!!!! LOL It took them over 30 seconds longer than their closest competition... lol... You'd think that you would have some sort of driving skill if you were going on a show like Bullrun... and she kept say "all my racing was done in a straight line” lol

jcrome04
lol.

Kind of ridiculous. A lot of those contestants don't deserve to be there!



Even though Avalanche is stuuuupid, they sure can drive in the challenges!! They got some nice damage from that last one though! biggrin.gif
SKperformance
Glad to know they are gone , having 2 sunday drivers in a Lexus did nothing for the Lexus community .
What is this nascar , i only race in a straight line ?
jcrome04
LOL.

The IS250 isn't the quickest horse out the stable either!! laugh.gif
smooth1
Man, I was hoping for atleast some driving skills! Pathetic I tell ya!! How do you drive a Shelby Mustang and come in second to a 4 door Chevy Avalanche in a power slide and drift competition? (Shakes head in complete disgust) So I'm rooting for Corvette now. LOL!!
jcrome04
Yup, Vette is my last hope for glory

I dunno man, I think those Avalanche guys have "the eye of the tiger" That one dude can drive!!! Maybe we shouldn't discount the VW bus just yet...

HAHAHAH although you do have to hand it to them in getting this far... even been in an offroad challenge in that thing... biggrin.gif
jcrome04
Yeah, I'm just hoping they don't win cause they're jerks lol.


Hey I notice you're in Vancouver BC, I'm just across the water in Port Angeles! How do you like having the next twilight movie filmed there? Have you seen any of the Actors??

I can't say that I have personally... But I know whenever the public finds out about where they are filming it goes nut... recently they were filming a bit at a local high school David Thompson Secondary, and my nephew goes there, and apparantly the school was over run with public, trying to catch a glimpse and what not... lol

I can't say that I am that much of a fan, my wife reading the books and she raves about how the book is better than the movie... I'll just wait for the DVDs cool.gif
jcrome04
Well the first one is out! Buy it!

I will admit I haven't read the books. (I don't think I have the attention span for them at this point in my life. lol) But it really is a good movie. I wasn't expecting it to be a sort of "love story".

But it's cool how they mention Port Angeles, Forks, and La Push so much. Bella's father is even reading a copy of the local Peninsula Daily News in one scene!! biggrin.gif

Then she google map searches for Port Angeles and it shows downtown PA.

The police cars in the movie are identical to the local law enforcement vehicles. Decals and all. They got the exact decals for them from local agencies.


Pretty cool cause of how local things are (even though nothing was filmed here censored.gif)


I'm not all hardcore obsessed with it like mostly everyone who is into it! But I'm not gonna lie to ya. It's just cool seeing something so popular about little old Port Angeles. And it really is a great story too.





Oh... and FYI... Forks literally is NOT as cool as the movie makes it out to be. There is ONE stop sign... on ONE road... that's about it! laugh.gif
SKperformance
Avalanche is in and the vw bus is out.
So it is all up to the vette to send the good ol boys packing since the cobra guys can't drive .

lol

I've actually seen the first one now... best part IMO the baseball game scene, that was in deed very cool...


[back on topic]
SEE YA L8R VW, you had a good run... Should be a great finale, I figure Vette, Avey, and Cobra will make for a very interesting finish... My bets are still on the Avey boys... But it all depends on what they have to do next in regards to the challenge... if horsepower/handing give an advantage then Super Snake and Vette may have the edge...

Intereseted to see how this goes...
