Let me rephrase that. There would be 2 different U-turns. So there would a detour related rural/farmland China with a U-turn board and a detour about the inner city with a U-turn board. Teams can only get u-turned once in this leg, so no one can get u-turned at both boards.

--- Quote from: Erebus1111 on May 19, 2017, 10:33:50 AM ---Haven't made one of these in a while, but here's mine for Season 31/32 (US TAR)

Basically, the format I used was 4 Legs in Europe, 4 Legs in Asia, and 2 in either Africa or South America. 3 of the 10 legs must be in the same one as the country before it. In total, this race expands across 7 countries (8 if you count the Vatican). Also, I list the cities/areas of where the pit stop is, not where the entire leg takes place at.

Starting Line ~ The Alamo
Leg 1: San Antonio, TX --> Accra, Ghana        (NEL)
Leg 2: Accra, Ghana --> Tema, Ghana        (Self Drive)
Leg 3: Tema, Ghana --> Palma, Spain   (Double U-Turn)
Leg 4: Palma, Spain --> Barcelona, Spain
Leg 5: Barcelona, Spain --> Rome, Italy --> The Vatican     (FF)
Leg 6: The Vatican --> Skopje, Macedonia    (NEL, Self Drive)
Leg 7: Skopje, Macedonia --> Hangzhou, China          (2 Detours, a single U-turn for both, 1 team can NOT be u-turned twice in this leg)
Leg 8: Hangzhou, China
Leg 9: Hangzhou, China --> Davao City, Philippines     (Last NEL)
Leg 10: Davao City, Philippines --> Port Vila, Vanuatu    (Double Road Block)
Leg 11: Port Vila, Vanuatu --> San Diego, CA
Finish Line ~ California Tower at Balboa Park

As always, all feedback is welecomed

I suppose then my issue is, since you have two legs in Hangzhou anyway, why bother with a double Detour leg? One leg stays in the city (with U-Turn), one leg is in the tea plantations and whatnot (with U-Turn). I could see this working in a case where it's *one* leg (preferably self-driving) in an entire region (like the Greece leg in TAR 29; have the first Detour and U-Turn in Arachova just like in reality and have the second Detour/U-Turn after the stadium task.

That said if you're keen to keep it, just have a single leg in Hangzhou and the second leg somewhere else I guess. ???
