if there's anyone experts on geo and map, this can be unfold even more after we try to figure out the distance between detour options and a route info lead to detour...

We don't know for a fact that there is a Fast Forward, and I wish people wouldn't post it as such without actual evidence (such as an image of a Fast Forward clue.) For all we know the helicopter thing is one side of a detour that no other team took.

Ditto! The salami can be an Active Route Marker too guys...we're only guessing here

i cannot confirm yet that the helicopter task is a fast forward, but i am almost 100% sure that it is.  we'll just leave it at that for now.

No, we're not. That is a roadblock clue envelope in Mark and Bopper's hands.

Yeah but :

Roadblock ---> The rapel
Detour ---> Salami or Clean/Polish

Helicopter is a FF so...

If there is a fast forward, you wouldn't need to complete any other tasks on the leg. And they're looking at the roadblock clue. And there's no hint of a green tinged envelope or clue page in their hands.

Until CBS in the press releases, in the photos, or in the promos shows something that directly and explicitly proves there is a fast forward, then you're making an assumption.

I have a rule that I have followed where TAR is concerned, and in a lot of other ways as well... Assumptions are dangerous.

That's because it's Art & J.J who we're speculating went for the FF not Mark and Bopper ;)

so far the specs are :

1. Fly to Turin, Italy (Caselle Aeroporto, Torino, Italy)

2. FF: Oval Lingotto, successfully land copper on top of their partner's head.

3. RI: The Museo dell'Automobile, there are 2 speculations :

    - They've given that museum logo at the Pit Start and find the place related to the logo. Once they find them, the clues were put somewhere in that machine (as the replacement of cluebox) or they need to find/match the museum logo somewhere on that machine..

4. RB: Lingotto, retrieve clues at the bottom of the building by repelling down.

5. RI: Unknown

6. DT:

A. Statue Cleaning (Location: In front of workshop, still Unknown)
B. Salami Tasting (taste & match, Location1: Deli Shop, Unknown --> Location2: Piazza Vittorio Veneto Square)


7. Pit Stop : Piazza Castello, Palazzo Madama.


as for now, except the uncertainty of Fast Forward, everything else in the above specs were almost true....

Given the tram, appears they are going south on Via Po towards the Piazza Vittorio Veneto. 

Curious, given the darkness, could this be the last task, because if they go north on Via Po from the piazza, then they would be at the supposed pitstop (Palazzo Madama) 0.5 miles.   :duno:

You've got it, TJ. They're at the corner of Po/Rossini, across from the Nuovo Nazionale (viewpoint). There's a gastronomia/salumeria (deli/meatshop) just around the corner.

I am going to support this hypothesis based on the information in the AR20 Transportation thread showing them as the only team with the possibility of getting ahead by catching a very early flight Asuncion to Sao Paulo, connecting to Rome and into Turin. It depend on when they finished leg 3, but if they did so by 230pm they could be released around 230am. No other team had the opportunity to catch that first flight and all the connections flow from that..

Lets hope she will quit! :keeta: :jam: :hoot:

Anyway, the helicopter could be an active route marker. There could b 8 different rooms to do it in, and Art and JJ struggle the most of the teams.

We see Art and JJ AND Bopper and Mark at an airport in Argentina though, per previews.
