  • Don't wanna go to heaven without raising hell. ♥
I'd like to see a team of people who had never met before they applied for the race. [/random]

I would like to see that as well!  :lol:

That's something I've always wanted to see as well! :hoot: Maybe two huge TAR fans who know each other online but have never met before! ;)
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

I would like TAR to visit smaller towns in the USA, instead of major cities.

Did we have an M/F team who are just friends? Not dating, not family related.

Flo & Zach are the first ones I can think of. Ari & Staella from TAR12, as well. There's probably more. :P

The went to TAR to see if they could function as a romantic couple..Needless to say Flo found her way to a certain twin, on the other hand i'm pretty sure all the romantic feelings Zach had for Flo were crushed by her behavior on the race..

Even though the race visits India OVER and OVER again, the nation never fails to deliver some sort of great episode  :tup:

I really liked the challenges in the two India legs of TAR20, especially leg 9

that being said, basically none of those challenges were done in the crowded and chaotic streets, they were all set up in venues where like 15 people were hanging around

I love it in older TAR seasons (in India) when the challenges were set up in the crowded streets and teams were really pushed to the limit, some examples:
TAR5 Leg 9 Detour - pushing the taxi through the streets)
TAR7 Leg 8 Detour - pushing the giant elephant through the streets GRETCHEN  :hearts:
TAR13 Leg 6 Detour - Indian wedding
TAR13 Leg 7 Detour - looking for the numbers on the power lines
TAR18 Leg 7 RB - find the 'meaning of life'

Basically I wish for them to visit really crowded and chaotic places, not just India

Me too! The India legs in TAR 20 were only okay. I miss those crowded & crazy legs. I wish they visit Bangladesh more.
The chaotic hustle & bustle of the streets add more element of thrill and fun to the race.
Oh Brian, I can't wait til after dinner. Cos then we'll go home and you can watch me have my period.

i also wish for MORE PUBLIC TRANSPORT!!!!!!!

i understand WRP don't want filming to be spotted, but I'm only asking that they have at least ONE leg where teams have to use it
public transport in foreign countries is a challenge in itself
and it doesn't necessarily have to be used to get from place to place, they could make an RB or Detour based on public transport
TAR13 L10 Detour was pure genius, using the public transport of Moscow, i LOVED that

so PLEASE, more public transport!!
the first 15 minutes of the TAR20 finale in Japan, kind of excited me, using bus, train and ferry to get to the island! but of course another _____ equaliser stopped the fun
