Spirit of Bullrun 2009

The Spirit of Bullrun Award was awarded to Brian Shannon & Billy Groton.  These men are truly what Bullrun is all about.  Most guys have a passion for cars - that's a given.  But when your passion for Bullrun exceeds your passion for cars - we notice.  Billy and Brian spent a year preparing for Bullrun.  They chose a vehicle that would make a statement and can run with the best - a 1987 Buick Grand National musclecar and they capped it off with BULLRUN vanity plates.

Unforunetly when Billy and Brian got to Nashville, they came to the conclusion that the Grand National could no longer go on.  Undeterred by the series of unfortunate events that landed them in this position, they headed towards the local Chevrolet dealership and bought a  2010 Camaro 2SS. 

It's important to note that Billy and Brian are Bullrun fans of the highest caliber.  They are everyday gearheads who made it their business to be involved with Bullrun and they made it their business to finish Bullrun 2009.  Fortunetely for us, they have great taste in cars and possess the sheer will of champion NASCAR drivers.  We look forward to having them on future rallies.      

 

I work hard so I can play hard and when I'm playin, I know how to play really hard...... Pretty much your average working guy who has been fortunate enough to make a pretty decent living allowing me to do the things I like to do most. My affection or maybe affliction,  for classic cars, muscle cars, and all things related to them gets my blood flowing and turns me into another person when I am behind the wheel.  What do you do to get your kicks ?

About My Team:

About me, I work as a full time realtor and property manager. ( www.laurelrealty.com  & www.laurelredevelopment.com ) But every chance I get I'm in the seat of one of my cars burning tires or just crusin. 

http://www.bullrun.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=38264&g2_GALLERYSID=f5c6c0eb8e3b34fe717c0e950b70511d

Married to wife Patricia for 16 years. My grandson 17 year old Chris lives with us and is just now getting interested in the car world.  

Early in life my father taught me all he knew about cars. We spent lots of late nights in the garage mismatching all kinds of parts to make things work. That’s how he was. You made it work with what you had, not what you could go to the local parts store and buy. After he passed away in 1985 I went into the the dealership routine getting all the ASE Certifications and so on. Thank god I gave that up!! it was such a unsatisfying job to do or have. So, In 1991 I gave up working for other people and went out on my own and into the real estate business. It's been great up until the past year or so. But thankfully I have two jobs and the second one is carrying me through. 

Of course all the while, I have always been involved with one car or the other from Chevys to Pontiacs and everything in between. I like em all. My first car was a 57 Chevy 2 Door Sedan. Someday I'll have another one.

Ah! Thanks for the clarification!! Yeah some of the Porsche purists can be over the top.

Hey Brian,
The Dart is bought and paid for but I think I'll just leave it in California and pick it up after the Route 66 run in May.
How's the Camaro working out for you? The traction control junk on all the Dodges has been driving me up the wall! Does the GM stuff work any better? Love that GN of yours. Sure miss the one I had around 1990.
By rgind, 12/29/09 - 10:07                 
 
Thanks for the warm welcome Wiskeyrunner. You have an impressive stable of rides. I am a big GN & GNX fan. Good luck and keeping playing hard.
