Hey guys thanks for the tips and advice given to me here. We ran the Bullrun along with Mr. Angry Mike Musso!!

Watch me and my brother in the premier of Bullrun on Spike TV tonight at 10pm. Set your VCRs, Beta max, DVDr, DVR, or whatever other setup you got if you wont be around a TV. This show will blow your mind.

My brother and I are using his very, very rare 1975 Hurst/Olds W30, 1 of only 48 known to still exist. This 700 horsepower monster (land yatch!) in its current form its worth close to $100k and we beat the hell out of it!!! Watch us as we take on cars like Lamborghini, Lotus, and Mr. Angry's awesome 68 Dodge Charger.

Dang, I can't believe no one has posted here since my last post. Just watched the show. I loved it. Very cool!! My wife even loved it. She said that she wants me to hurry up and finish my car. Looks like a lot of fun. Dude, I can't believe you did not have your license with you. Good luck on the rest of the competition.

Thanks guys, yeah they edited so much stuff out, but it was still good.

I was so pissed at my brother after that challenge, I verbally assaulted him in front of everyone, they taped it but I guess they decided to edit it all out.

Truth is he had gotten sick and had the chills, he nearly collapsed at one point. That night nearly everyone got sick, cast and crew, due to how cold it was and the lack of sleep and all the stress. Even Goldberg got sick.

You can see the whole episode, deleted scenes and photos on the www.Spiketv.com site.

Cool! I know someone fameous now.
I loved the show. I thought it was great.

Haaa haaa haaaa, those silly girls got booooooted.

I like Civic and the Charger oh and your Olds :yes:
It is kind of fun to see those two dudes thrash their Lambo up, I like the burn out donut twirls they did, very cool.

I watched it last night. . .not too bad. . .my wife also wants me to finish up (actually start and finish) my '67 Bird so that she can do something like that as well. . .glad to see the girls in the Scion get the boot. . .hopefully the Honda will be next!!! After that the Beemer can go and then I won't have any complaints about who does how well. . .although I do expect the Lambo to break before the end of the competition!

Watched the show last night :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Good episode! Loved your reaction to the guy pumping your gas. Last year we did a cruise from our shop in Tacoma WA down to LA and drove some of the same roads you were on. It was nice though, when 9 hot rods pulled into a gas station all at once, the pump jockeys usually let us pump our own gas while they looked at the cars.

That Lambo looks a little rough.....its like the Gumball cars that go on Ebay after the rally....Would you really want to buy a car that you know has been hammered on that hard?

yeah this dude sounds arrogant in his ebay listing. "I guess the Porsche Cheyenne will have to do. I spent $10,000 on a new clutch. Other Lambo owners say is powerful but what would I know, I only owned 3 in the last year". Get a clue and turn a wrench yourself.

I wanted to check that out, but I have missed it so far. I just tried to watch it on their website, but it was too choppy for me, which doesnt make sense since I have 3mg (is that how I write it??) internet connection.

How surprising, a Lambo with a bad clutch, :rolleyes: .

I think that it is more surprising that a "Lambo" driver burned a clutch up, not that the Lambo burned its clutch ;)

not trying to offend fans of the show

but i thought it was lame

looked like another 1 of those great-american-race/surviver type shows my wife & mother-in-law watch

i took the show out of the dvr schedule after the 1st episode. it'll prolly get much better now that i'm not watching.

Glad to see you guys are still there as well as Mr Angry. Hopefully a muscle car will win. About time the Lambo guys went home. I couldn't believe that he didn't run the challenge just because he didn't want to. Why did he sign up for the show?

Thanks!

I spoke to Jeff about his decision, he was upset about having to pass on the challenge but he said "when am I going to decide its enough, when I have no car left?" He just wanted to cut his losses, the car was a real disaster by the time he got elminated, he gave it his all, but abused the car a little too much. Even if you dont count the value of his car, he suffered the most damages.

My brother and I may have been in the same boat had I not kept reminding him not to go around show-boating and risk breaking the car. We had swapped in a new rear the morning before the Hurst was shipped out to Montana to begin the rally, the reason: the rear that was in there exploded. So we tried to be very gentle...as gentle as you can be with 550hp + 150hp shot of laughing gas. :)

Rich,
What nitrous system are you guys using? had to ask.:thumbsup:

NOS Super Power Shot with an Edelbrock blanket. This thing was installed literally minutes before the car was taken to Montana and in fact I had to finish the electrical once we got there.

We actually tried to obtain an NX plate because the NOS system we had was a universal kit and did not come with so we drove all over NY trying to find one on that last day of our build up. We tried to get one of the NX Pro-power plates or a Nitrous Express annular discharge plate but we learned that they did not make one for the blueprinted Rochester that my brother VERY foolishly installed back into the car instead of the Carburetor Shop Holley racing carb that had been dyno tuned to that engine :( One of our biggest follies.

Finally #1!!! :woot:

Question for you, what was your brother adding to the tank during a fill up in last nights episode, from a red bottle?

Gas in the West coast is much lower octane than in the East, we had to add plenty of octane boosters at every fill up. We would go into the store and empty the shelves and buy them all.

Craziest and scariest road I have ever been on in my life, the drop on that unpaved, rutted, reflector-less, unilluminated, and guardrail-less, road was about 2500'!!!! AND it is designated a two way US highway!

You both have american muscle cars and both from the same state.

05-02-2007, 11:17 AM
To be honest I dont remember if we did 100mph there or not, but it was BS because they did not catch us breaking the law, they got a phone call...I suspect another team tried to knock us out. Nobody has fessed up so its still a mystery.

Ill touch on the Charger thing after the next episode.

Man last night it got hot between the Olds and Dodge.

I can't believe mr. angry thinks he can try to screw the olds team and then expect to get a break when no one else does.

I'm also pissed that Alsop tried to screw the brothers.

I don't know why everyone is ganging up on you right now, but my wife and i watch the show every week and root for you and Andre.

We are doing it again, Team 11 Hurst/Olds is having a Bullrun wrap party on Thursday at Lucky's on Bell Blvd. in Bayside, NY. Last time we had a Bullrun party we packed the place, this time should be even better. Autographed pictures will be given out. We will have the car there for all to see, come on down and have a few drinks with us!


Tuesday there will be a Bullrun Marathon starting at 9am and continuing all day up until the new and last episode at 10pm est on Spike TV.
