History
The Bullrun rally is a secretive and underground car rally that first started in June 2004 and ran from Hollywood, CA to Miami, Fla. This first event attracted 100 plus super cars from all over the world and media attention. Drivers can only gain access from a referral from an existing Bullrun driver or can apply directly to go through an 'unknown' selection process. After the success of the first rally its momentum built up to the point in 2007 Spike TV broadcast a spin-off TV series "Bullrun Reality Show" based on the event. Being on Spike TV toned down the event and speeders were disqualified unlike the non TV events where traffic tickets and arrests are common occurrences amongst the drivers. In 2010 the Bullrun returned to its roots and relaxed the rules somewhat. The creators Andy Duncan and his cousin David Green executive produced the successful "Bullrun Reality Show", and also produces "Inside West Coast Customs".
