Well now that this season is over and the Amazing Race has returned to the normal (otehrwise known as the Amazing Race, not the weak ass lame family edition).
Here is a nice recap to see how Bj and Tyler (our winners), Eric and Jereny (2cd place) and Ray and Yolanda (3rd place) compare to the other final three of the other 7 seasons of the Amazing Race.
1. Winning Team's season rankings. This is the average of how the winning teams did by averaging out their Pit Stop placement for each leg. This list counts all double legs as one leg.
BJ & Tyler 2.33 season 9
Rob & Brennan 2.46 season 1
Flo & Zach 2.46 season 3
Uchenna & Joyce 3.17 Season 7
Chris & Alex 3.31 Season 2
Chip & Kim 3.39 Season 5
Chip & Reichen 3.54 Season 4
Freddy & Kendra 3.67 Season 6
Just a few notes. Obviously in season's 1-4 It was harder to get 1st place due to the large use of the Fast Forward.
Chip and Reichen are the only winning team to actually have the best season ranking for their season.
Most Legs Won (any team with more then 1 win).
6 Colin & Christie 13 legs

Again, remember that season's 1-4 had multiple Fast Forwards which made it more difficult to achieve a lower average placement. I would tend not to make direct comparison from the first 4 season's to teams in season's 5, 6, 7 and 9.
Also remember that season's 1-5 allowed one person to complete all the roadblock's if they choose to.
Season's 6, 7 and 9 all feature the same rules concerning the Yield, Roadblocks, and Fast Forwards.
BJ & Tyler and Eric and Jeremy score exceedingly high on all points. Ray and Yolanda on the other hand score towards the higher end.
If they ever choose to make an All Star Version of the race, I think we have some excellent canidates here.
