shloky: amazing race didnt see twins or asians. theyre going to chile by way of dwf or dulles or stl. gate is stacked

I heard that the intial flight plan on the 1st leg of TAR5 connected through STL but that connection was edited out for obvious reasons. One day, I hope we'll read about racers actually being spotted there in St. Louis because it was start or end city  ;D

I knew they looked like Models. Meh, they might be fun, she's a retard (sorry Caitlin) but that answer sucked.

Fantastic work all!
Chateau you are unreal with your sleuthing!

Hearing Jordan and Jeff are racing I think will be a good thing for TAR. They had a ton of supporters and they may bring the all important new viewers to the show. And I think I will enjoy seeing them again.

But I wonder how long they will be able to survive the mental challenges in the race. Jordan and Caitlin in the same race could prove to be very very amusing.

Really like the mix of racers. That is part of what makes TAR so great.
Dieing to hear more about the racers.
My wish for this race? To have the F/F or elder couple take home the prize.

I thought the same thing Heliox!! I expect Jordan and Caitlin to be either BFF or mortal enemies by the end of ep 1, lol.

I can't recall too many of the legs spent in Chile over past seasons, but does anyone remember any tasks that may be Switchback-able in this country?
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

i don't think any in Chile really stood out

but IF they do go back to Argentina again, maybe they'll not only relive the Season 7 Roadblock, but also the self-driving epicness!  :hearts:

I give up on the twitter search.

99.9% of the tweet contains the words - Jeff and Jordan - in it. :res:

They may be traveling through to somewhere else, unless they have something to do here.
If there is a task in Rancagua, here is some background city information...
According to Wikipedia -

Rancagua is a city in central Chile, located 87 km south of Santiago. It is the capital of the Cachapoal Province and of the O'Higgins Region. It has a population of 206,971 (2002 census). The main economic activities range from mining activity, tourism, agriculture, wood industry, food production and services to minor industrial activities. The city also serves as the administrative and legal center of the region.

Rancagua was founded by José Antonio Manso de Velasco, who founded several cities in the central area of Chile. The city's original name was Villa Santa Cruz de Triana.

The city is famous in Chilean history as the scene of the Disaster of Rancagua of 1814, when Chilean forces fighting for independence from Spain were defeated, marking the beginning of the period known as the Reconquista (an attempt by Spain to regain control of Chile).

In recent years the city has become one of the most attractive cultural and tourist centers in the O'Higgins Region mainly due to the vineyards in the area. There are also some archeological sites, sport centers and easy access to smaller and more typical villages and towns.

The city connects with Santiago via the Panamerican Highway (Ruta 5 Sur). The Metrotren connects the metro service in Santiago to Rancagua by train.

Rancagua is home of the University of Rancagua, the first private university to be established in the O'Higgins Region.

Rancagua is also known for the "Largest Underground Copper Mine in the World" called El Teniente, located about 40 km to the east of the city in the Andes mountain range. El Teniente is a division of the state-owned mining enterprise, Codelco.

The city's Braden Copper Stadium was one of the four venues of the 1962 football (soccer) World Cup. Nowadays, it houses the O'Higgins professional soccer club, one of the leading teams in Chilean professional soccer. In this city every year takes place the National Championship of Chilean rodeo in the Medialuna Monumental de Rancagua

"Brent, I found this in the bookstore right here at LAX!  Do you think it will have anything we can use on the race, such as maps?  Personally, and this goes for me, too, I think we, as Americans, should put our best faces forward as we race around the world, and having maps is something that good Americans, such as us, do."

I am one of the BB11 fans and Jeff and Jordan are the most entertaining couple in Reality TV in years.  In addition to winning everything on BB11 ($525,000 between them), they were named the Reality TV Couple of the Year recently.   In case you don't know them, go on YOUTUBE and look at their videos and tributes.  They are really a couple in a serious relationship.  Some people say they are dumb, especially Jordan.  Believe me, they are not.  Maybe unsophisticated and naive, but not dumb.  I think you will enjoy them and their give and take, and if they let them be themselves, they will go a long way.  They are nice people.  You'll see.  I am going to follow them along with you, as will their thousand of fans.
Right on...they have large prayer chain too.  they're the kind you can watch over and over.  They brought me laughs, love and memories.  :flirt:

Thanks. I hope it helps. I know there are people that tweeted him to see what the teams looked like but no response as of yet.  Would you think that this would mean they are on their second leg since this was earlier this morning?

Would think so!  :tup:

I'm actually surprised we're not seeing pictures. If people are tweeting from their phones, that is, I know if I were them I'd be trying to get a quick picture too.
