I wonder how a composite team would work around this time. How about Marie (of Tim & Marie) & Katie (of Max & Katie)? Marie wants Katie if she gets the chance to Race again. Or Brodie (of Brodie & Kurt) & Blair (of Scott & Blair).
The 27 past teams would be chosen by an online public vote just like Big Brother All-Stars several years ago and last year's Survivor Second Chance. They had played once before and not yet won in their original TAR season. The candidates will consist of 9 F/F, 9 M/F and 9 M/M, which applies in all seasons. Once the public vote would close, the 27 candidate teams would be picked for 11 or 12 teams to be selected on TAR 30.
For all, either a team could make a composite team shown as above (ala Eric/Danielle and Mark/Mallory).
THE RULESThis applies for TAR 30 only, there will be no former winners, three-peats and four-timers.
Bopper & Mark are ineligible to give another shot, Mark has done in TAR 24 that could not compete for TAR 30. For Bopper, he can't make a backup partner as well.
Not include past teams are no longer in their relationship (Joseph & Monica, Brooke & Robbie).
