Never leave TOP3?
« on: April 17, 2012, 03:07:22 AM »
If Art and JJ never leave the TOP3 , they would be the first ones in history to do it , right?

In the US; Marc & Rovilson did it in TARA2 and I think one of the teams did it in Latin America as well.

Surprisingly even Meghan and Cheyne had two placements outside the top 3 and Eric and Jeremy were fourth once. I tend to think that Art and JJ will not complete that goal. It is quite difficult.

They hold so holds the record with most wins (8 of 12). Hope the original and still the best IMO the US version beats that record!!!!

But with the teams this season? Ugh, I hate to imagine it but, ugh, possible.

BE ELIMINATED NEXT ART AND JJ <33333333

Only two teams have done it.

Marc & Rovilson from Asia 2 hold the record for most wins:
2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 1, 3


Alon & Oren from Hamerotz LaMillion are the only team to win the leg they'd been U-turned:
3, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 1, 1, 3, 2, 2, 3, 2


I personally think both teams are stronger than Art & J.J.

Nobody should be surprised that the closest to this in a US Amazing Race was Tammy and Victor in AR14. They only had one non-top-3 finish in all the legs, the treacherous third leg.

Well it seems like teams who never finish outside the Top Three have never won the race, so if Art & JJ never fall out of the Top Three in the remaining legs of TAR20, hopefully that pattern will continue!! :hoot: :hoot:
I'd rather walk alone than let them throw dirty confetti. ♥

I think (and dearly hope) that the enemies they've made will cause them to fail. But realistically, I still think they're a team who'll make a tiny mistake and then just let it escalate into a big one as they get frustrated and stop thinking of things intelligently.

Ralph & Vanessa were so close in making Art & JJ break their Top 3 streak this week.

Davechel could get the most wins record, however they have 1 extra leg than Nick & Starr (who I believe hold the record).

Sorry, getting off topic!  :lol:

Actually Nick and Starr and Meghan and Cheyne both won seven legs. No team has ever won eight.

Whoops!  :-[  I consider Nick & Starr have the record (even though they tie with Meghan & Cheyne) because they did it in 11 legs, contrasting with M/C 12 legs.

That's a great point :tup: They won the percentages at least.
