I still think if there is an memory task, they will do a TAR 17 or TAR 12. Because there are a little amount of countries so something like TAR 21, 23 is not really work and I hope that they did not do anything like TAR 22.

I would love a TAR 12 style of challebge... that is still my favorite memory challebge... the one that screams Amazing Race to me.

Just a random thought, but I was thinking that maybe the final task might be a Memory challange relating to music?
Every leg, except for the 2nd, teams heard some sort of music playing somewhere along the route, E.g the wise man on Leg 6 with the flute, or any of the bands such as the start line, or the celebrations in Leg 3, and disco in Leg 4.
Anyway, my guess is maybe the final challange will have teams listen to loads of different music pieces and match them to the corresponding leg. 
AND the twist would be that the William Tell theme would be the music for Leg 9, even though teams never actually heard it, so they'd just have to figure it.

Not sure if I explained that all that well, but yea, that's what I'm thinking? :lol:

But with David Copperfield, the final task is probably a magic task, which I'm also fine with.  :lol: :wohoo:

I just had a thought that suddenly popped out of my mind. If this possible memory task is related to music, Luke would've been desperate if he and Margie made it to the F3. :ascared

OMG!!!!  :o   :o   :o
I never even thought about that!  :ascared
But, as unfair as that would be, something's telling me that producers wouldn't have taken that into consideration... Just like Leg 4's Detour all over again.  :groan:

:ascared Never thought of this either! :ascared
At least the bartender stunt Detour had some sort of hope for Luke to do despite the glassware tantrum. With music in the finale, even sign language will be IMPOSSIBLE for Margie to communicate with Luke.

There is always the chance that is a RoadBlock and in some cases we've seen clues saying "X MUST do this Roadblock" this could've easily been the case with Margie&Luke... It usually applies to teams with their set of 6 completed but still...

I think now that we know the title of the finale, I suspect that Dave & Connor and Caroline & Jen are in the final three. Wonder who is the remaining team?

Based on the Pit Stop picture of Leo & Jamal, it seems like they're out in 4th again. :(

For the Las Vegas finale Leg, it doesn't seem likely teams  will be driven anywhere out of the Las Vegas casino area since traffic is pretty heavy going towards Boulder City and Enterprise/Paradise, plus it's filmed during the night.

Taking the zero live sightings, nighttime, and highway traffic into consideration, could the finish line be located on the rooftop of a skyscraper/hotel? Purely spec.

Unless you want to count go-kart places, the LV Motor Speedway is the only racetrack in the Las Vegas metro area (in the outskirts of Sunrise Manor). I'm not sure if they'd go that far out of the main city during the night.

There is also Las Vegas Motor Speedway.  It has lights and is, sort of, out of the way...

OMG, I'm finally right...

Not sure the best place for this, but I'll just post it here.

I don't think anyone else mentioned this, but CaroJen had a podcast interview on the Bobby Bones Show, and during it they say something very very controversial! And if it's true I'll be insanely pissed!  (:;)

They said that when they got to the Helicopter / Skydive Task, Caroline got ready faster than David, and actually saw the Clue before him, but she wasn't allowed to jump first because David & Connor got to the Clue Box first??

If this is true, then I have to say, CBS, YOU HAVE ACTUALLY FIXED THE RACE!!!!  :groan:   :'(
I'm not a happy person today!  (:;)

We'll know more soon...

Before this joke of a race (it doesn't even deserve to be capitalized now), teams have numbers to pull or sheets to sign up to determine the helicopters, flights, task order, but CBS, WRP, TAR would do anything for their little angels Dave & Connor to win. :res:

Before the Race???  :o
I never knew that, I would've assumed that the order was determined by those numbers they have attached to the clue boxes?   ???
And in cases such as this, the order would be determined simply by the person to see the sign first, gets to jump first!!!!  :groan:

The one who got the clue first would get the helicopter first. The one who got the answer first would jump first.
Dave and Conner got the clue first so of course, Dave would be in the helicopter first even if he take some minutes more to wear those jumpsuit.
About the second one, I wonder how Caroline know that she got the answer before Dave?
