TAR 28 leg 4 if other team(s) help Jessica & Brittany at flag roadblock, who would be booted, how far would the models go to ?
TAR Asia 5 leg 1 if Nic & Lisa beat Eric & Rona in starting line task, how far would they go and who use U-turn in penultive leg ?

For TAR23, bunnies were basically behind Ally & Ashley after the detour already,  and then they have issues in self-driving. I wonder exes being u-turn can save them.

For TAR28, definitely Scott & Blair. You can see they end up being last in the footrace. Have all the teams been on the same train, Scott & Blair will definitely be eliminated.
Then Erin sucked at the France roadblock, Tyler & Korey booted in Georgia because of Korey's terrible dancing.
Models will likely be eliminated in Bali 1 because of the physical exhaustion.
Like the questions on the previous page, Frisbee boys can now use a 2nd u-turn to save themselves, leaving the u-turn victim (likely dancers because of the better past performance) being eliminated.
Shenzhen & LA could be anybody's game

TAR 28 Another case might occur, as model girls/beauty queens usually performed well in Bali/Lombok legs (Sam & Renae, Jess & Lani, Parul & Maggie, Yvonne & Chloe). I thought Jess & Brit had a chance to survive Indonesia 1 (Zach & Rachel booted), in leg 10 Burnie & Ashley U-turned Brodie & Kurt then Brodie & Kurt u-turned Matt & Dana, leaving F4 with Sheri & Cole, Brodie & Kurt, Burnie & Ashley and Jessica & Brittany.

Considering that Jess & Brit are models, they could have taken that detour on self-riding unicycles. We know that Burnie and Ashley switched detours and faced difficulties because of that, and Sheri and Cole took a tremendously long time on the unicycle detour. However, even if we assume that Brodie and Kurt took the art installations then it would still mean that Burnie and Ashley would be gone for a toss. F3 with the models?
And if you take into consideration the very prospect that Brodie and Kurt are there for a physically oriented finale, Sheri and Cole and Jessica and Brittany will take 2nd and 3rd.

The jumping rb was the deciding factor of that RB. While jumping distance may not have any correlation with physical fitness.

One thing we have to be noted that is Kurt used up all of his RB quotas by leg 9 already. Therefore, Brodie, the less patient guy,  will have to do the search-for-spots RB in Shenzhen, which Brodie's frustration may bring them down.

If Brodie & Kurt made the LA finale, who did the jumping roadblock may have huge difference in outcome. Not only becuase of the matter of jumping ability, but also the mentally-challenging final RB. If Kurt picked the jumping one, they will likely be screwed as Brodie seemed to be terrible in mental challenge.

I remember in a post-race interview Brodie said he had surgery somewhere on his leg 6 months before the race, iinm. That's why Kurt did most of the roadblocks. I think he'd do worse in the jumping roadblock during the finale, compared to Kurt doing it instead, considering this surgery prior to the race.

I just watched the Seychelles Leg of TAR16 and this What If probably has been done before. But...

What if TAR16, Leg 7 had been an elimination Leg and Jet & Cord were eliminated? (Or if I were Phil, I'd have eliminated them just for throwing the map pouch at his feet.  :barf)

Who would've made Final 3 instead? And I wonder, if they had been eliminated then, would it be a lesser chance to be invited back for TAR18? (Though them leaving the bottle on the boat certainly qualifies for Unfinished Business more than the show portraying their loss as getting "cheated" out of a million dollars :barf)

The non-Top 3 finish on TAR16 also would lower their profile and likely would not have warranted a TAR24 invite either (though they certainly were not the worst team on TAR24... just 2nd worst).

Leg 8 swung to NEL, Steve & Allie got it, I thought the father/daughter would be gone in Singapore and Louie & Michael in leg 11, leaving f3 with Dan & Jordan, Brent & Caite and Carol & Brandy with same result.
If Louie & Michael U-turned Jet & Cord instead of Joe & Heidi, who would be booted in leg 5?

Yeah I Agree I think The models have a chance its just that they made a huge mistake I think the plain Chamonix leg they can survive cause I think they will do well in paragliding with there bodies but i think they will come in last in Armenia but its a non cause i think sheri can beat her in changing oil cause she is a model and doesn't know how but I think they will place 3rd or 2nd in Georgia since it is a dancing task then In dubai I think they can be 1st or 2nd cause girls have more patince so in the RB she can be good and maybe beat Brodie and Kurt for a 1st place check in In Bail 1 I think in the salt task they will move to 5th or last but since they have attention to detail it can move them to 4th or 5th maybe then In bail 2 I think they and sheri and coal are not strong enough but Burnie and Ashley will u turn Brodie and Kurt brodie and Kurt will u turn dana and matt
and the models might be 2nd or 1st on china since models have perfect balance they might be really good in china and make it to final 3
I think they have a shot at winning the whole thing
My spec for the placements if they did not make the big mistakes
Leg 1 non
Leg 2 Darius & Cameron (if Marty & Hagan got there taxi)
Leg 3 Marty & Hagan
Leg 4 Sheri & Cole (since when they were running sheri gave it her best while Scott and Blair just fast walked since they know they aren't elim)
Leg 5 Erin & Joslyn (STILL)
Leg 6 Ordered to continue Racing
Leg 7 Tyler & Korey (If Scott didn't take Tyler's bag)
Leg 8 non (probably Zach & Rachel or Scott & Blair)    
Leg 9 Scott & Blair
Leg 10 Zach & Rachel or Dana & Matt (Burnie and Ashley u turn Brodie and Kurt, Brodie and Kurt u turn Zach & Rachel or Dana & Matt)
Leg 11 Burnie and Ashley (since they got troubled for switching detours)
Finals
1st Models or Dancers
2nd Models or Dancers
3rd Brodie and Kurt

Jeff & Jordan probably would've been eliminated that Leg. Weren't they really far behind?
With the next Leg still in France, I seem to remember it being a very linear Leg. So whoever was behind in Leg 5 would've been in danger.
