TARAu2 is the gold standard for all international TARs. And honestly, better than most, if not all TARUS seasons since then.

Well, I finally watched TAR Aus 2 for the first time, and now I'm gonna give my thoughts on what is considered the best International Race of all time.

Route: The Philippines was a great first location for the race, then the jump to 2 India legs was fantastic, we never see India this early in TARUS! From crowded India to the desert metropolis of Dubai was great. Turkey was a great location as well. My one complaint of the route was that Paris should have been a whole leg. Cuba was great to see, as someone who lives in the States, it was really great seeing a country I can't visit. Canada was a refresher too, and the US needs a Pit Stop in Vancouver. China penultimate legs are always great. Guilin and Brisbane final was great too.

Tasks: I'm glad this season lowered the amount of reused tasks from other versions. I'll list the tasks I really liked. The stair puzzle Roadblock from India 2, Memorizing the 8 symbols in Hagia Sophia, All Cuba tasks, Every Canadian task, and the final task.

Teams: I have to say I really didn't hate any teams this season. I'll spoiler tag the winners in case you haven't seen this season yet.

Winners:

Show content

Shane & Andrew are very satisfying winners. I liked how they were down-to-earth people and wanted to go on this race to have fun. They didn't do so strongly in the first-half, but it was the second-half where they really shined. This is what I would call a team being an "Alpha Underdog" team. Shane & Andrew go in my Top 5 winners of all time

TAR AU 2 had the BEST cast ever , Lumelia <3

New sponsors are needed for TAR!

Would love to see an international version of TAR!

And now, look at the gap between TAR seasons!

TAR Canada / Re: TAR Canada: Wishlists (NO Spoilers)

« Last post by Koadey on Yesterday at 01:22:27 PM »

Random Route guess:

Starting Line: Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia
1. British Columbia
2. Edmonton, AB
3. Vancouver, BC surrounding area
4. Foreign Leg
5. Churchill, MB
6. Ontario
7. Algonquin Provincial Park, Ontario
8. Foreign Leg
9. Labrador City, NL
10. Mont Tremblant, Quebec
11. One of the Territories.

Maybe Nunavut can be visited in the same leg as Churchill or I could see Nunavut being visit with Yukon/Northwest Territories. It'd hard to determine a foreign leg, since they could practically go anywhere. However, if they stick to Asia/Spanish-speaking, I can see Dubai/Malaysia for the Asia leg and Brazil/Spain for the other leg.
