While TKR are 3 hours behind (thanks Phil), there are some major differences in lighting between teams (kinda like the HK leg last time). Granted, the flights to Taiwan may or may not bunch them up, but still, I wouldn't be surprised if there is a nonstandard pit stop length to accomodate TKR's delay.

9 hours after all the teams arrive, TK & Rachel finally get to Osaka.

Ken, you can't really believe that. It's actually 3 hours 20 minutes.

I know that, apskip. I was being facetious.

Since when does Phil say and you are three hours behind?!!

Whenever it's true. You will probably never catch Phil in a lie, unlike some others at CBS and World Race Productions that we can thnk of.

Depends. He did say that the tattoo parlor was the only FF on the race, which contradicts the Lithuania insider videos. Maybe he meant the only FF shown or taken.  :lol:

Agree about the FF--but it wasn't a lie per se I was worried about. Does anyone remember another time where he told a team exactly how far behind they were on the mat? Just struck me as strange...

I want to say in All stars , but I think it was more general (like half a day, a day behind).  THose those two would be very close to factual.  I am going to check.

I'm thinking TAR8, we saw the Fast Forward in the racers hands in Panama? and we know it wasn't used thanks to racer interviews, then the next leg there was another Fast Forward, taken by the Paolo's, and when Phil described it I'm pretty sure he said the same, something about it being the only Fast Forward.

We should have listened closer to the girl voicing over the network promo.  You can clearly hear say: "Good Luck, Rachel, you're going to need it!"  Prophesy of doom?
