I thought today, that since they did a W-Turn on leg 1 last season, it would be awesome to see a Fast Forward on leg 1. :trampb:
OMG MY WISH CAME TRUE

 :like:
First time since TAR4 in Cortina d'Ampezzo! :ty3: Now I really can't wait. I think the new, stricter rules for the Express Pass are also a lot better.

I can only think for a "throwback" season there should be an ensemble of suspenseful music like in the golden age of TAR (11-17).

So this is part of the speculated throwback eh? :wohoo:

They released the cast back on the first day of filming.  Take a look at the TAR 27 EP 1 topic for a list of names.

He means the full bios, team portraits, all that good stuff.

Guess it's not going to be today.

So this is title quote of the premiere episode of TAR 27? "A Little Too Much Beefcake"?

Maybe the fast forward is eating a humongous Brazilian beef steak and the team that when for the fast-forward are life-long vegetarians  :funny: #Neverknow

Hmm, I'm actually thinking about that quote, too.
It must either be very random like a team seeing something while travelling to their next location, or it is to do with the fast forward.

Though with the switchback in Argentina involving eating, I'd be surprised if the FF was also an eating task.

Urban Dictionary:

beefcake

Quote
1. Somebody really ripped and muscular. Usually male.
2. Used ironically to describe somebody extremely overweight. Popularized by an
early episode of South Park in which Cartman drinks weight gain formula and gets
really huge.
3. A cake made of meat. Almost always beef.

#1 would be the popular usage. Esp in Rio if on the beach or in a club?

Am I not aloud to watch the Utube videos because it says they're not available is it because I'm in the Uk. I find it odd because I could watch the ones for Tar 25 & Tar 26

I guess CBS is turning the race like Big Brother. Before this season, the live feeds were available anywhere, but now it's US-only.

This season of THE AMAZING RACE, teams will race through 5 continents, 10 countries and more than 34 thousand miles. They will learn a tango with a twist in Buenos Aires, Argentina, drop mics with a French rapper in Paris, France, partake in a high-flying water show in Macau, China, freefall over 200 feet into the Batoka Gorge and swim with crocodiles in Victoria Falls, Zimbabwe. The 27th season of the 10-time Emmy Award-winning series premieres Friday, Sept. 25 (8:00-9:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
 TAR 10 Switchback maybe?  :trampb:

"They will learn a tango with a twist in Buenos Aires, Argentina"

Well that explains the dance studio Tiffany & Krista were looking for.

Wow, really? I thought they was likely eliminated in The Hague.

That'd be great. I already dislike the Chacs and Joey & Kelsey are giving me positive vibes.

I love how the preview doesn't really give us new information :lol:

I would love to see suspense over the F7 onwards instead of 26 where I already knew the F4.

Is the caps 102 from preview video suggest Tanner & Josh made into India??? Unless that caps was came from Zambia/Zimbabwe.


Zambia leg has a high possibility being F8 NEL, and Paris leg suggest it was being F7 TBC.


We knew Tiffany & Krista made into Hong Kong, and we knew Denise & James Earl, Logan & Chris, Justin & Diana appear at Krakow airport on the route to India. Plus someone suggest Kelsey & Joey made into Krakow.


Bootlist suggestion:
F11: Kelly & Shevonne
F10: Earnest & Jin Lao/Alex & Adam
F9: Alex & Adam/Earnest & Jin Lao
F8 NEL
F8: Jazmine & Danielle
F7 TBC???
F7: Cindy & Rick (Chacattack)???
F6: Joey & Kelsey???
F5: Tiffany & Krista, Denise & James Earl, Logan & Chris, Justin & Diana, Tanner & Josh???

Here's what I have right now, based on the awesome work on the preview and cross-referencing Oval's tracker:
Kelly/Shevonne make it to Rio de Janeiro (seen in Copacabana)
Alex/Adam make it to Buenos Aires (seen in Rio de Janeiro Airport)
Ernest/Jin make it to San Antonio de Areco (seen at Pit Stop)
Jazmine/Danielle make it to Victoria Falls (seen at Sao Paulo Airport)
Cindy/Rick make it to Paris (seen at Johannesburg Airport)
Kelsey/Joey make it to Krakow (seen at Schindler's Factory)
Logan/Chris make it to India (seen at Krakow Airport)
Denise/James Earl make it to India (seen at Krakow Airport)
Tanner/Josh make it to India (seen with winter melons)
Justin/Diana make it to India (seen running with kids)
Tiffany/Krista make it to Hong Kong (seen at Tsimshatsui)

Barring any weirdness like double eliminations, this means that the 1st NEL must happen in or before Zimbabwe (Leg 5), and the 2nd NEL must happen in or before the Hague (Leg 7).

There might be a way to calculate the chances of each team, but the only one I have right now is for Kelly/Shevonne, who have a just a 20% chance of surviving Leg 1 (with a well-placed NEL in Rio de Janeiro) and a 5% chance of making it past Leg 4.
