I want like to see an all leg intersection (except for travel plans) and a double elimination. Thus, the last intersected team to check in will be eliminated. That would be a twist!  :lol:
They should do that but it would have to be first leg and with 12 teams

I think it was season 6 (I'm 44 but have the memory of an 88 year old, so forgive me if I'm wrong), The Race went to Iceland. Wish they'd go back there again. It's just a unique part of the world that you don't hear too much about.

Work at the Ultra Amazing Race. :hearts:
And just for fun, maybe they can have a real minesweeper task. Whoever steps on a land mine dies. TAR ratings would blow up.
Oh Brian, I can't wait til after dinner. Cos then we'll go home and you can watch me have my period.

I want to see a season where they go around the US. It worked for China and Brazil. Make it like the Family Edition, but make the challenges as difficult as in normal races, go to interesting places (not the world's largest office chair), and keep it to two per team. But I know this will never happen because of how poorly that season did.

How about a season full of countries that haven't been seen on TAR in at least five seasons (their last appearance was at least five seasons ago)?

Because there's just so much of Country X that you can see before you get bored of it.
I thought that when we fought, I was to blame
Now I know you play a different game
I've seen you dance with danger; still wanting more

I don't mind visiting a frequently or often visited country like India or China, as long as they visit a new region or city.

For example:
China - Manchuria, Tibet and Xinjiang.
Japan - Kyushu, Hokkaido, Okinawa and Chugoku.
Russia - Far East (Yakutsk, Vladivosktok)
Australia - West Oz and Central Oz (Alice Springs)

I want more disgusting eating tasks. The one that really eeked me was the live octopus in South Korea.
I wish (just a wish), they can do that meat ripping challenge from Survivor last season.

I never want to see a disgusting eating challenge again. I really don't think the Race needs to stoop to trying to make contetants puke...
