As it pertains to the statement you quoted, GENERALLY, the car was not BEST suited to be on Bullrun. Had we been given more notice, I would have sought out a car that had better gas mileage (smaller injectors), more clearance, less tire scrub, smaller or no turbo, maybe even 4wd. Would that have changed the point at which we would have been eliminated? I can't say. Would I have driven another car better, can't say.

How much time did they add to your time for hitting the pylons? I think it is dumb that they have so many challenges that the H3 actually has an advantage. On a side note I'm sure the show did everything they could to make you look girls look bad. I'm sorry I won't be seeing the car anymore.

No one here blamed the car. I have been asked for the set up and I am giving it
I mean according to the times, we were only 2 seconds behind with 2 penalties. I don't feel like that is anything to be ashamed of. We didn't go home the first day, we didn't go home after our first challenge, so we are very happy with what we did. Of course we wanted the $200k, but we made it 1/2 way and that's what was in the cards for us. We both lacked experience with the car and in the end, it got us. I was pushing the car to the edge and gave it a little too much gas and the car got away from me. I didn't go into the wall and I feel I recovered swiftly considering the amount of time I had with the car...which was ONLY on the road doing the speed limit (aside from the drag raced where we whooped the Lambo
) I had not driven the car until I drove it on Bullrun and Emilie had not driven it until the challenge. I am not used to the weight distribution and that turbo hit hard once it spooled. Because I pushed it a little too far going up the course, Emilie was able to gage how far to push it once she got in the drivers seat.
I do not have pics of the engine bay because the owner of the car doesn't put it out there. I am really sorry. But if you pause it on my casting video, you can sort of see it. Like I said, sorry I don't have pics to post of the engine bay, but I am just trying to respect my friends wishes. He was, after all, awesome for letting us borrow it in the first place. Did you see what we did to that thing????? LOL.
Thanks for watching and for all of the support and kind words.

Lame that he doesn't want to release any engine bay photos, but yeah that's awesome of him for letting you girls use his car. I would feel honored seeing my car on tv smashing a lambo and having it make it through the show.

Damn I just watched the latest episode and I am so bummed you ladies lost. You all did a hell of a job for not really knowing the car at all. I was so pumped to see an SC on the show with some cool, attractive ladies driving it. Props to the guy that let you use the car for the show. I bet the whole experience was just so much fun and I could only dream of being on the show. Congratulations on making it this far.

Are you the blonde chick or the brunette? The brunette girl was mean to the blonde girl.
Also she seemed to get into it with Goldberg a little.
Team Cuda has the best drivers.
I liked it when the Lexus beat the Lambo in the drag race on the road.
I still wish the brunette chick was nicer to the blonde girl. That bothered me. Blonde girl seemed like a sweet heart.
