1. There are 4 fast forwards and the team can use it twice in the race, however, u turn and yields can only use once in the race. (I don’t care whether you hate the u turn and yields, but for me personally, it gives spice in the race!)
2. Legs 1-3 and Legs 11-13 have no twist at all because I believe that putting twists in the first legs and last legs is the biggest mistake that the creator did on the show. By not putting any twists in Legs 1-3 and Legs 11-13 will give justice to the strong racers. (Ex. The only reason Eric and Danielle won TAR11, is because of the luck given by putting twists in the last legs. In TAR11, there are 2 non-elimination points in the last leg which is unfair giving injustice to Dustin and Kandace, Charla and Mirna, and the alpha male gay team).
3. However, on Leg 12 will give a justifiable twist in the race by eliminating the last team. Meaning, there will only be 2 teams in the final leg (Leg 13) of the race. The reason for that is I end up watching 2 racers who battle head to head in the last leg than the 3rd team who just gives additional editing time. With the final 2 in the last leg, there will be no more Bama’s, or Eric and Danielle (who just got the 1st place finish because of the gossip challenge), or even Kelly and Jamie (who just got the 2nd place finish because of the deaf guy helping them).
4. The last episode will be 1 ½ hours in order to show Leg 12 and Leg 13 making it a total of 12 episodes.
5. And lastly, I hate China, India, and Thailand (no more on these 3 countries), they need not to travel on any of these countries anymore after another 10 more seasons of the race.

Hey Masterly. :D Great route! :D Although I enjoy the drama the India/Thailand/China legs bring, I do think that only one of India/Thailand/China should show up per Race, if at all. The two-team finale thing sounds intriguing, but it would've eliminated Tyler/James or Rob/Kim in TAR 10 (former arrived last of the Final 3 in Spain; latter finished the last task in Paris and if there was an elim point in the middle of the finale - start with a mid-leg elim, end with a mid-leg elim thing - I do think Bama would've beaten 'em) and Charla/Mirna in TAR 11 (they arrived last in Guam and even though they had a lead in Hawaii, they were the last to finish the last Hawaii task). Plus, Margie/Luke got help with that task too, so I don't think it was that unfair.

Unfair? I was the first one to help Jaime + Cara at the roadblock. There's no rules written where it says that a team isn't allowed to help other team. Originally, Jaime + Cara and my Mom + I had a thought of working together at the final roadblock if we arrive there before Victor + Tammy does. We didn't want them to win the race :duno:

Luke, I never said it was unfair. :funny: Plus, you were defo one of the more competitive Racers I've seen on this show. :funny:

Here is one... you know those midway thingy like in last season, why not the last team to arrive have a penalty.... I was thinking maybe marked for elimination but a speed bump would be fine. That would certainly make the race more interesting...
smiley:
They should incorporate the "Fork in the Road" Like in my amazing race stuff.

That would be the same thing as having a NEL, don't you think?

It would certainly give the last-placed team more initiative to fight, knowing that even if they finished last and the leg was a "TBC", it would still put them at a significant disadvantage...knowing that at the next part of the leg, they would have to complete the speed bump task plus the second detour/roadblock.
