Maybe this would be better in the "TAR 30 Location wishlists and Unsupported speculation" thread, but if they do go to LA, your idea of secluded/remote locations outside of the city would fit very well. I'd love to see them visit the aircraft boneyard in Mojave. Would be a stunning Final Leg location, especially for a memory task of some sort.

All I hope is that production learned from last season's spoilers what not to do this time around. Particularly as there's a lot more fans tracking it this time around

They could be connecting?

I agree with this- I don’t think it needs to be direct if it’s prebooked (could also provide extra buffer for Phil, if he’s flying direct)

Prebooked tickets could also explain why some racers are in flip flops?

Interested to see where they go/when they get there

Where-ever is the final city, the teams that were eliminated 11th to 6th, are also being flown from the place where they were all sequestered, with them arriving closer to Phil's time.

As we don't have the ES feature anymore, they don't have camera people with them, but will still have producers with them, wonder if there might have been any sightings through that route.

Guys Info is NOT the point. Right or Wrong.

The point is that from day one here The FIRST POST IN SPOILERS SAYS NO FUTURE INFO!!

How would you feel if a crazy loon targeted TAR?  Because they knew days ahead where and when they would be?

It is highly dangerous and against our rules, so DO NOT DO IT AGAIN.


An hour maybe, days no.

And THAT is a MODERATOR call.

I have no control over others, if they want to be irresponsible I cannot help it. But here you do it again, and that's it.


PLEASE READ POST #1 CLOSELY IF YOU HAVE NOT  ALREADY.

It is potentially DANGEROUS to tell today's world where teams will be ahead of time..

It is NOT allowed here at RFF and I hope other thoughtful  posters will consider that as well.

You can trust that RFF has things well in hand, and you will be welcome to join us at the right time for more fun.

RULES:

No location info to be revealed before teams are on the way. (I'll let you know when!)

NO spoiling of the Final 3 Finish order.

Respect each other, love the game, and have a super fun time!

RFF's Golden Rule:
Have RESPECT for each other, regardless of opinion. This of course includes no flaming/insulting other users and/or their posts.

So we do not have sightings at the Hong Kong airport? That means we have no idea where are they connecting to sf (assuming that is the final destination), right?

LOL because the debaters were seen at the bar task with the Indy guys way after the fact Jody already finished that. Smh they won first be happy for them. Plus the girl who took the pic of them at the pit stop today said they were first to rip open their clue

Hm, this sounds similar to the logic the Jody fans used when they insisted that Lifeguards and Skiers were the last two teams to reach the Harare pit stop, which proved to be untrue.

They were the first to rip open their clue but neither teams spotted on the mat were in a rush, right? They may not even have been on the mat in order. Teams will likely be starting evenly on the flight out.

agreed.. Other than winning a vacation prize or like 5k winning that leg really doesn't mean much anyway.

The goal was to not get last.

Right and Shawn Marion is a recognizable face that can help us find them.

from what I've read the vacation prizes are basically worthless because it costs more in taxes than what you could pay for the trip out of pocket booking yourself ... I wonder/hope they can exchange for cash equivalent

I am hoping they also couldn't finish the leg and there is only 2 teams in the final!

I really doubt that, but if that were the case then all 4 teams might be in the final...

That would be awful. I like seeing 3 teams battle for the finish. More excitment, better show.

right.. You get a penalty for not finishing ( i think it's like 4 hours) so if both teams couldn't finish the task than the first one to get the pitstop would move on..

No way would 2 teams ever be eliminated

Interestingly for all the insults you appear to be wrong. The tweeter says:

only saw Jody, then Skiers, then MAT removed. That clearly means Debaters were in first.

But the flight is an equalizer...so  DOES NOT MATTER!

I don't think we have ever seen the teams traveling from the sequester site to the final city. Without camera crews, they just don't stand out much. Still, it can happen so it's worth going back and looking for the eliminated teams.
