I don't think that team Olds did anything out of line. Team Charger put them against the Lotus instead of the F150 because they wanted them gone. Next week should be interesting. I'd put my money on the TA for winning the whole thing. I have to say the Olds guys are my favorite team now because they are the underdogs.

Ha ha, nice
I hope team Ford gets the boot and it's down to teams T/A and Cutlass... Team T/A seems to have their stuff together, but you never know what's in store that might screw them up. One mistake can be costly...
Didn't like the show at first but I've really gotten into it after episode 3 or so...

I really like the show. Didnt watch the first few, but caught like the 3rd one I believe.
I pegged the TA from the beginning, except that drift challenge. I cant believe he couldnt drive worth a crap. He almost lost it around the far barrel and couldnt manage to get anywhere near the glass. But all around, the car is built for this. Good mileage, handling, all around car. And yeah, the girl is freakin cute too! :biggrin:
I was glad to see the lambo and lotus guys go. I think they came across as arrogant pricks. I mean, I would rather see someone build up a car than empty their wallet and buy a street legal racecar. And the charger guys...well, I was rooting for them, despite their bad mileage, just because that car is bad. But, then during the parking garage challenge, they cant figure out how to bump up the timing in their own car? Cmon. Team TA plugged a blown tranny line on the side of the highway in the dark. I would love to see another series of this, but with budget cars. If any of you remember Car Crafts real street eliminator challenges.... something like that.
I was expecting the F150 to go out early, but you gotta give credit where its due, they show up first at the finish line, they kept the truck in that thing despite the disadvantages. I think though, that the show should have kept better track of the speeds people were going, otherwise, whats to stop the lambo or lotus from blowing everyone away on the highway? If the show wasnt gonna enforce their own rules, then why bother? The F150 guys just proved the others were speeding, when the show should probably have been keeping them in check.

Well... tonight was the final match, the results are...
1st Place Team Trans Am
2nd Place Team Hurst/Olds
3rd Place Team F150
Got to give credit to Team H/O, they almost pulled it off, major underdogs from the beginning. Having owned the same car, I can tell you first hand it's quite a barge. Kudos to them.

Team T/A wins it all!!! Was hoping they would, and the planets and stars were aligned so it happenend. Team Olds did make a surprising comback though. Next year there better be a team GN!!

Did anyone else notice that Team T/A was up by 7 minutes over Team Olds after the first leg/challenge? Team Olds got to the final checkpoint first in the final leg before the T/A. The T/A would have won the overall bullrun by less than the 7+ minutes they were already up from the first leg. Yet after the final times were posted team T/A finished almost 9 minutes total ahead of team Olds.
Its apparent that the T/A had already won the bullrun but they made it out to look like it was down to seconds instead more like 9 minutes with the T/A getting there before the Olds actually did anyway. I guess that would have taken the whole excitement/tv factor out of it if the T/A dominated it again.
