Well I was just thinking. I should know that that isn't the smartest thing I should be doing, but for whatever reason I was. And I was really wondering just what are the odds of my Bug really running in the Bullrun are?
I have don't think it will happen this year due to the bus taking the cake. Two very nice guys by the way. You see Bullrun run has taken an F150 4x4 in season one so that punts my truck. and the bus in season 2 might just rat can MISTER HAPPY. I was then thinking of running the 29 ford but the cash is getting tight and I don't think its going to be done in time. Ain't that the breaks. And can I really afford to trash that investment after my stocks have been taken out to the back forty and shot in the head. I don't think I can ask the wife for such a favor?

But really the bug or Mister Happy was built to run this race. I mean I took what I saw on the tv and said I could do that in a bug. So what are my odds?

I dunno.. hard to say. If its an east coast thing, I think alot of the east coast folks may have a better shot...

I think they bug still has a good chance of getting in. Andy and David should be looking at cars like the bug or my car to be fan favorites. Our cars would be considered underdogs because they have small engines. People love the underdogs!

I'm not sure Aaron.... if you can make it in Personality wise.... we might have a Mopar with big wheels if those don't make it in, for you to run....
Oh I think I have the personality. But a Hemi. oh my mind ponders the humiliation it can un-leashed. Oh, but wait your team spanked the others like small children that got caught looking a porn mags behind the church.
Thats why your team made it this season. You being a player and all.
Now Scott might be right and they go more east coast but I don't think that casting is going to look just in a couple of area's. Sure it keeps transport costs down but limits the amount of possible viewers. I think it will have a more spread out cast this time. Which works for me. I believe? Pac Norhwest.
DMS has a point with fan recog. It helps with the fan base. Look at this year with not one superfan but two of them. This really boosts the fans hopes of being able to race in the show. Thus adding more fans to the show and increasing viewers to boot.
But what is the odds really of Casting and the Producers putting the bug or my truck in this coming season? I can't tell and Andy isn't going to write me an email telling me to find a new hobby because I haven't a cold chance in hell. Would he?

Good Luck Aaron!

The '29 has a new Chevy 350 bolted to a new 350 transmission. But the cash is drying up and I don't think I will have it ready for the next casting.
My wife seems to think that Mister happy is still the best car for the rally. It's so well known and people loves "theWart". But is Andy and casting really going to give it a chance?
I know that I would love to drive it against several of the other Superfan teams and any other teams that they might bring to the starting line.

That '29 is probably the most reliable thing he has, a mild motor, mild transmission, everything's easy to get to.. that car could be fixed with some ductape, an avocado, and a funnel and still work!
Racertci i tell ya what i wonder what about a 1970 Mustang Mach 1 VS. a 1971 Pontiac Trans AM ? great compition there !

I just thought I would update you guys on the Capone. It is about done and the RED interior is looking bitchin. I'll post you some pictures soon.
But it is sealed I will not be adding it to the list of cars that I will allow for casting consideration. Sorry. I can't affort to harm the car to much money invested to allow it to get harmed.

There has to be a couple of classics right..... How about we make a friendly wager on who breaks first if we make it.

Aaron you bring the 29 and you HAVE to be in. I would hate to see it torn up it can't be easy to find parts for that one.

I bet Andy would love to see the Capone in the rally. But fixing it again makes my shiver a lot of work has gone into building it and I did it as an investment.
But it could be my 1 in 12 odds Lottery ticket?

Aaron,
I think no matter what you drive, you should make it in. You are BullRun to the core, and it is you who has spotlighted so many of us who are superfans. You kept this board alive when things looked bleak, so they have to consider you!!!
Rhea the little red headed girl
Bring the BUG!
It's gotta be the bug - there may have been a VW bus in season two, but there is an ever so slight difference between a bus and a bug... Think you are safe enough to say that you still got the originality thing goin for ya, plus your personality rocks the bug. If they don't cast Mr Happy and Aaron, then they're nuts!!

Common Aaron. I know I haven't been around here all that long, but I've said it several places that I would like to see your bug run. But you're not going to get a chance if you don't play THEIR game. Get the video up! It doesn't have to be the worlds best video, just get something for them to look at.

The Bird is back with a new attitude!!
Remember it's all about the game and how you play it.
I'd say the bug. While the 29 would be mechanically sound, if you get in a challenge, it could be the end.... The thing is kinda top heavy. You would HATE to tear it up. Bring the bug and a ton of replacement parts.Plus the 29 would have that whole wind thing the bus had. A good cross wind could be a scary proposition
The 29 is a straight axle car and even with the lowered front end it is top heavy. So unless we are running a staight line its a loser. True it isn't a sports car that can do the trick e-brake stunts.
Mister Happy is almost ready for a video. I can't wait to show the world that a 4 banger is really a monster if done right. I plan on whipping up this old man.

Good news everyone.... You all know about my 29 Ford that I call Capone? Well he is back from having his interior install and he is looking great. In fact it looks FUCKING AWSOME! I will be taking pictures of it soon as the weather is brighter. The overcast days make the flat (house of Colors) paint blend in all the sweet lines of this classic piece of American history.
The 350 is sounding sweet and the Magna flow pipes are singing a wonderful song. The car drives like new (it is) and handles everything I have given it so far. The only complaint is that everyone wants to sit in it..
Damn it is a great car. To bad I can't enter it into the Bullrun. If I could it would make Andy and Davids cut of that I am sure and it wouldn't be asking for any favors from anyone! THAT is just how good of a car this is.

I bet if I ever make the show some teams are going to be shooting for Mister Happy! Good thing I am the man of steel and the 007 of the superfan teams.
