when phil says "get another chance", it's showing the same location used in 15? where the team was eliminated at the starting line.  Maybe another starting line elimination.  Although it did suck for that one team (forgot their names) it would be perfect for an "all-stars".  Which teams want to race bad enough!!!

I was surprised by the amount of TAR 14 and TAR 17 racers that will participate in TAR 18.  I don't know the criteria of CBS's selection, but of course they have their reasons.  But I will say that I "LOVE"   the name "UNFINISHED BUSINESS".  Who ever thought of this moniker needs a raise!  The name itself generates interest.  Kudos to the genius!!!!!!!!!

That one finish mat with Phil (7 to 9?) is that from an earlier season or this season?  If so, there may be some more sluething to do.

They took the ferry to Manly meaning they COULD have stopped off at Lavender Bay as reported my own of my associates.

Many of these shots are from the racers'previous season. But the others are new. Coutzy...you can use the little # at the bottom right corner of each cap to reference the ones you mean, if you want...

I love having our own personal field producer. :lol:

If they did, it wasn't on the way to Manly.

ETA: And K/V didn't stop there on the way back. So unless a team was on the wrong ferry or got lost, it shouldn't have happened.

White Spoiler text below, not sure if its appropriate for this section:

Perhaps Jet and Cord got on the wrong ferry. This may explain why they ended up so far behind even though the path from the airport to Manly Oceanworld is very linear. Remember, the 8 trailing teams were all on the same flight into Sydney.

In everything I saw, teams never crossed over into the mainland side of the harbour bridge. There is a small window where teams may have.

As far as the yachts go, teams boarded from Manly Cove and took water taxis from Circular Quay and Manly Cove. None of the locations mentioned had any direct involvement that I saw.

We passed Shark Island and Clark Island between the quay and Manly. They are tiny spots of land in Sydney Harbour. We never went under the bridge directly. Rushcutters Bay, The Darling Harbour and Lavender Bay never had anything with boats done (On this edition, at least- Did TARA come to Sydney at any point?)

Okay. The Rocks is the first place teams went after they got into Sydney.


After getting off the train at Circular Quay, G/M, A/K and K/J ran along the rocks to the end. After getting their clue there (I never saw a cluebox or heard them talking about the clue in particular.) Teams ran straight back to Circular Quay and immediately got on the ferry to Manly, where they went straight to Oceanworld. Based on the next teams arriving on the very next ferry, I find the Lavendar Bay scenario very unlikely.

For full details, see http://forum.realityfanforum.com/index.php/topic,23631.msg575567.html#msg575567

But based on the timings, Lavender Bay seems nigh on impossible because between 11 and 1, all teams were heading to Manly, or doing the (suspected) Roadblock in Manly. After Oceanworld, teams did not leave Manly until they checked in at the faux Pit Stop.

No no...those locations that I mention are ones used by an amazing race style corporate team building event...see the link. I was just trying to figure out where Lavencder Bay could have entered the picture.

And yes...TARA 4 did go toSydney: :lol:

The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move
