I have watched a few International TARs, so I am not sure which one this is from.  But my favorite leg was the one where the teams drove their cars up to a mountain, and rode a train thru the mountain.  But the auto cars sat on the train cars, and the racers sort of lounged around on the cars as it drove thru the mountain.  Being an a tech geek that fascinated me.  It was so simple, yet looked like extreme fun.  Some of those train systems in other countries are just fascinating to watch.  Even the ones in India.

Season 3, Leg 9, the car train was in Switzerland and yes, it was awesome.

What was your favorite examples of prizes?

I would say the best are always the cars.

WORST PRIZES:

-Steve and Allie's Sprite Dinner in S16
-Gary and Mallory's Iced Tea in S18

What iced-tea? The prize was an Indian dinner + bollywood-inspired entertainment + $20,000 to share.

Anyways, I thought the cameras given in Season 3 were the worst.

One of the worst has to be  Charla & Mirna and Ron & Christina's catamarans, even though it created some funny quotes/moments :lol:

I love TARAUS, but I don't like the Salvage Pass. Why not just give them a two hour time credit and a chance to Non-Eliminate a team instead? :)

At least it wasn't as bad as TARA.

The only thing I have to say about Season 6 (besides that it is one of my absolute favorites), is that Lena & Kristy totally would have won if Leg 3 hadn't happened to them.
I doubt it. They honestly weren't that great of a team. I think Debbie & Bianca were a better team overall.
Lena and Kristy were constantly 3rd or 4th throughout most of the leg.

Yep, that's right!

Also, they spent much of Leg 2 in 1st Place.

I think that gives them at least some credit! :hrt:

Anyone I know would take $1,200 off their fuel bill a year. It's a no brainer. Still, the prize is valued at $60,000 which is a lot of savings!

I think Gary & Mallory's prize isn't that bad. They got one million rupees in addition.
