Today is our last day- it has been a magical journey. The boys in the Range Rover asked us for more G2 so we were happy to give them 5 more gallons of G2. Julian the driver said he really noticed a difference after we put the G2 Diesel in his tank. They really noticed the increase in horsepower! So cool…….!
We left Arizona on our way to Vegas! Arizona State Troopers were out in full force- we were stopped for the 2nd time during the rally but did not receive a ticket. We jumped back on the road and cranked some more U2 as we made our way into Sin City. Such an incredible journey for team 11 Good- Blake called us this morning to inform us that Dodge had ran a story on us on their corporate web site. So cool!
We arrived into Vegas and were met by the bright lights and high energy of Vegas. The Cuban Brothers performed again at the Fremont Street Station and we had our award ceremony! Congratulations to Ricki and his team for taking the overall 2010 Bullrun Navigator Award. Congratulations to Clause and his teammate for taking 3rd. A special thank you to everyone at Bullrun for all their hard work. We had such an amazing time, 3300 miles and 12 states down. So blessed to have participated in this year’s rally. See you all again next year! Godspeed!
What a gorgeous morning here in Telluride, CO. The smell of the mountain air and the clear blue skies was amazing at first light. We were escorted out of the resort by the local police department- along the route out of the resort many locals gathered to see us off. It was so cool to see so many people excited to see all the Bullrunners leaving the mountain town. What a contrast as we left the mountains and headed into the desert on our way to Scottsdale Arizona. We all came to the realization that we were running on G2 against all these sports cars and it made us all feel so proud to be using 11 Good Energy’s G2 Diesel. The desert was filled with an amazing energy as we drove by miles of cactuses. There was an incredible thunderstorm which helped cool things off. We arrived in Scottsdale Arizona at the Valley Ho Hotel and we all jumped out of the cars and into the refreshing pool. It was so fun to hear all the stories all our fellow drivers were telling as we relaxed poolside before dinner. It was so nice to see Jim Chase the Founder of Knight Rider- thanks for hanging with us Jim.
Leg #1 today, Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park – Utah
Leg #2 Hotel Valley Ho, Scottsdale Arizona
Telluride, CO: a small mountain town in southern Colorado. The drive was brilliant as the Rockies boasted their magnificent landscapes. The drive was mesmerizing as we all took time to thank God for his blessings, our safety, and our friends and families. Our dear friend Michael took first place in both legs of the day’s events!!! Kudos Mikey – keep up the solid maneuvering! On the way to the first leg, we stopped at a motorway: but this was a go-cart motorway. All of the entrants had their shot at the title as we zipped around this track in heats of 6: intense and fun! Another early night for the boys – a 7th and 10th place finish – wheels up at 9AM. 
The Peaks Ski Resort hosted the BullRunners, and the New Sheridan Inn Hosted the dinner and the party. It was a magnificent old Mountain town Inn filled with turn of the century pieces. The food and atmosphere was awesome… laid back and comfortable. Many thanks to Dave and Andy, along with the rest of the BullRun staff for all of their hard work and planning. You guys nailed it, Beautiful Day! Chris send his love to Leslie, and the girls, as well as the rest of his family, “I love and miss you all, I cant wait to see you for Kylie’s Birthday Party.”
The city of Omaha, Nebraska may never be the same. Coming into Omaha, we had our first encounter with Johnny Q Law. Chris sweet talked him into a minor speed violation; however, the leg was burned. Two top 20 finishes for team 11 Good on day 3! Chris has been a soldier behind the wheel and making all of the right decisions and keeping safety first. Nomad hosted the party. It was a typical Midwest night club filled with locals wondering what all of these performance vehicles were doing outside this club. It was great seeing other people admire the vehicles and the race. Euro-Cruise (A really cool BullRunner that happens to look and act like a European Tom Cruise) took this kid for a spin in his Ferrari F430 and literally ripped in and out of the streets and gave this kid a ride of his life. We were laughing so hard – we couldn’t believe he was doing it! What a great night. This morning, the Omaha police were kind enough to escort us all out of the city. The Nebraska State police were not quite as cordial as they lined up for miles to nab every BullRunner that they could.
This could be our best driving day yet with a 6th and 7th place finish. The ability to stay on the road with no need to refuel, complimented by some clever navigation, we out-foxed the majority of the field the entire day. Our English friends that are driving a Land Rover Defender 110 European Edition (they actually make and sell the vehicles) got a bad batch of diesel fuel on the way to Boulder, Colorado. Their ride had a maximum speed of 75mph and was sputtering and consuming diesel at a very rapid pace. After the leg, we told them to save the trip to the mechanics and see if G2 may be able to help. Doyle put 5 gallons into their fuel tank and then watched it idle. Within 5 minutes, the engine smoothed right out. They drove t around the block and came back gleaming. They were able to reach speeds in excess of 90mph the following morning. Boulder is a sleepy town, and we all fit in well as it was lights out early. Extra comfortable beds at the St Julien Hotel matched their impeccable service.
Shout outs to the Morrow girls, Leslie, Taylor, and Kylie – Daddy loves you all and can’t wait to see you! America the Beautiful – Going through Soybeans and Corn fields as they are fueling us across the country.
Shout out to our support team: Blake, Brad, Todd and Nacho’s Auto Repair in Omaha for coming through with some repairs to the auxiliary tank last night.
Yesterday we hit the 1000 mile mark! This morning our first destination was the “largest rocking chair” in West Amana, Iowa. This turned out the be the first big trick pulled on the bullrun!~ we then had to strap up another leg to 85 miles to the Iowa Speedway where the REAL checkpoint was.
Not the most exciting trips from Cleveland to Chicago; however, the detour into Michigan’s International Speedway was quite the event. A place that none of us may have ever gone; but, we were going there for lunch 
. The windy city was great – The Dana Hotel hosted dinner and the party. Dinner was average at best – Asian fusion cuisine that had one main ingredient, Salt. They even had a bottle labeled, “salty” if you didn’t already have enough! Early night for the boys as it is going to be an early one with wheels up at 8:00AM.
The streets of Chicago roared as the echoes carried down Michigan Avenue as the Bull Run set sails for Omaha Nebraska. With a side step to the Iowa Speedway for Lunch. It was interrupted by an intense Great Plains storm.. off to Omaha. In Chicago, all of our vehicles were corralled so that no one could refuel before the race. Our team was running low on fuel and needed an extra 100 miles. We pulled off to the side of the road, went to 100% G2 Diesel and took off in less than a two-minute time frame. It was amazing, we all noticed that the ride smoothed out even more to the point that all you heard inside the cab was the turbo whistle. It was pretty sweet knowing that we were at our cleanest, and our best performance.
After leaving the speedway we set out for the Hilton Hotel in Omaha Nebraska.
Day 3 Down 1416 miles driven
Good morning GreeningFans! It is a B-eautiful day in Cleveland Ohio. Last night the BullRun hosted a sweet club party at Cleveland West 6th street’s Velvet Dog! A rooftop patio bar with dance floor, along with a killer DJ, set the stage for Cleveland’s hottest party of the weekend. The Ritz Carlton hosted us all and did not disappoint.
The morning came early – wheels were up at 10AM. It seems like many are facing Ohio’s finest state troopers. We are sitting back this leg and being the tortoise of the race – but still cruising. G2 Diesel has not let us down and is holding up to the test powering us to our next destination: The Michigan International Speedway.
We wish everybody a blessed Sunday, July 11th at the 11th hour.
It was quite a paradoxical experience of polar opposition coming from the peace, mountains, birches, lakes, and love of the Adirondack Mountains into the bustling concrete jungle of Manhattan. Nonetheless, it was time to prepare for Day 1 of the 2010 BullRun NYC to Vegas: 15 hours to launch. We were warmly welcomed into the Empire City into the Standard Hotel in the Meat Packing District of lower Manhattan. Our team pounced into action preparing the vehicle and ourselves for the race ahead.
The opening party was located at The Box where music, reunion, old friends and new friends gathered to celebrate the race, and the human race. Many friends joined us for the launch: Rich Rossi, Adam Falkoff, John Lane, Maritsa Varvitsiotes, Brad Wujcik and Chris’s lovely wife Leslie. We love you all and thank you for your support.
