"There were no cops, no trees, no humans of any kind so we decided to wring out the little Ford. For 47 minutes straight the Fusion was pinned at 111 mph with the A/C on getting 25mpg. John, Gabe and I all sat there astonished. We made one fuel stop, saw no other Bullrunners and came in... are you ready... 6th place for the day! IN A RENTED FORD FUSION!! CAN I GET A BOOYA!!!
Ford people, if you are reading this contact me immediately because I don't think you know how good this little car is. Seriously, we should talk about perhaps producing some Ford Fusion "MR. ANGRY" editions. I LOVE THIS CAR!"
About time you showed up THERMAN! I noticed you didn't have any video of your car actually driving, is it cause you were picking up broken parts on the side of the road every 5 miles? Or is it because that v6 was just too fast for the video camera?
LOL, about time you joined in on the fun! How's the kids doin?
ja-ja! It gets too dark too early, and filming a black car in the evening or at night wasn't doable. Spent all Day Sat & Sunday editing .. .
Soonest Leah could get away was Wednesday.
She was actually nauseous, and I'd just had a nail in my foot from the day before! I'm on my last antibiotic tomorrow! If we were both at 100%, you'd be in big trouble!

So Andy Duncan Excutive Producer contacted me Sunday to tell me to come to LA. He then instructed me that I have to remove ALL advertising from the race car, since Bull Run has thier own advertisers. He also instructed me not to talk about this phone call until Monday when other people had been informed of thier spots. He continued on with the fact that we could be serquestered in the event we fell out early to protect the outcome of the season. So at great expense I did this waiting for the call today to tell me where to be in LA. Instead I get a phone call from Cindy telling me we are not on the list! This is after I asked Mr. Duncan twice about the expense of removing the decals from our car. He even confirmed that they would pay for fuel since we would be driving the 1000 miles to LA. My back ground check was even on it's way via Fed-Ex overnight Air. I would just love to hear Mr. Duncans side of the story, but he won't return phone calls. So Thanks Mr. Duncan for costing me a ton of money for nothing, even after you said we where in. Isn't Hollywood great?
