I just rewatched S20 Leg 10 (India) and during the Detour, Art & JJ are like "Let's pretend to be Dave & Rachel!" and JJ starts berating Art, saying things like "Shut up Rachel! You're my partner not my wife, you're so weak!"

1. I did not remember this Art & JJ moment happening. Very immature of them but it was kind of funny, lol.
2. It made me wonder just how badly Dave treated Rachel.. because for JJ to be saying those things... yikes...

I'm aware there's a few S20 Insider Videos available on YouTube. There's a few videos of Rachel & Dave bickering that didn't make the air. Boy S20's cast was extremely dysfunctional and I loved it lmao.

Edit: I completely forgot about Vanessa accusing Brendon & Rachel of cheating during the Detour. Vanessa was so obsessed with Rachel for literally no reason. But Rachel's "WHY ARE YOU STARTING DRAMA ON THE MAT?!" is so underrated :funny:

It really didn't happen all that often, but Dave was a military man and sometimes treated Rachel like one of his subordinates. I seem to recall this really getting under her skin when they were in Japan.

Don't forget about Kerri & Stacy's unaired feud with Vanessa & Ralph. I'm shocked their interactions with them didn't make the air.

Dave the airforce pilot? they won the title and most legs didnt they?

The first team to win 8 legs was Marc & Rovilson in TAR Asia 2. Also 8 legs is the max legs any team has won, Marc & Rovilson and Rachel & Dave are tied for this record. No team has won 9 legs in a single race

Yes, Rachel & Dave holds the record for TAR: US. 1-1-6-2-4-1-1-2-1-1-1-1.

Saw that scene. I wish it was shown. Kerri & Stacy are like a broken record.

He's not Air Force. He flies whirlybird helicopters. Wait he's not even in the "real army" he's a National Guard officer.

TAR really missed an opportunity for an epic two-side battle on TAR20. Instead of just focusing on Rachel vs Vanessa, they really should've set up this epic battle between Rachel & Brendon/Nary & Jamie/Mark & Bopper/Kerri & Stacy/Joey Fitness & Danny and Ralph & Vanessa/Art & JJ/Twins/Rachel & Dave.

This might be an unpopular opinion but I loved S28's Dubai visit. The only self-drive of the season and it really brought out the worst of some teams (cough, Dana & Matt) Racers these days are so lucky they don't have to deal with too much self-navigation.

Don't forget Maria & Tiffany had transmission troubles during their first Dubai leg. A car not working properly is like the end of the world to some teams (aka Kynt & Vyxsin).

I wish
TAR US have some brainer F/F teams, and head to head shouldn't be used to eliminate team(s)
TAR Canada have more international legs
TAR Asia have legs outside Asia/Pacific
TAR Israel switches some ARI tasks to Detour/roadblock tasks
TAR Vietnam casts more normal racers, and travel outside VN (might face a problem with visa issues)

TAR Asia did do once legs outside Asia/Pacifc region a decade ago.

Maybe I'm going crazy, but in a previous season, did a team get penalized for not having all their clues when they checked in? Was this because they lost one? or because they just skipped one?

On TAR US, there is no penalty for losing clues. Teams must physically pick up and read each clue in order to check in. Tara & Wil lost one of their clues in the final leg and received no penalty. On TAR Vietnam, there is a penalty for losing clues.

Right, but i swear i have a memory of a US TAR team getting penalized for losing (or at the very least missing) a clue.

Freddy & Kendra in Norway iirc

Anyhoo, I was reading up on Rachel (:torche) and I read that there was an off screen airport fight or some sort of secret scene in TAR20 Leg 3 (Paraguay  :2hearts:) What was that about?? Does anyone have any link  of that?

Freddy & Kendra got a penalty for taking an extra clue from the clue box. There was no penalty for losing any clues.
