I don't remember Phil saying that a team may only use the U-turn once in a race during the blind U-turn. Although I'd think that L/M would use it on J/K if they could and that J/K would use it on L/M, is it possible that L/M use it on J/C, b/c L/M know that J/C are right behind them?

THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT I THOUGHT! Maybe Luke and Margie u-turned their "friends". It would have sucked though! However, I do think V/T are likely to U-turn J/C: look what happened after the roadblock, at the curb, in the previous leg when Jaime nearly got into a petty argument with Tammy.

Karma...

Also, I think a "blind U-turn" is not exactly considered a "U-turn".

puddin:
Phil said: this is the first of only 2 U-Turns found along the race course blah blah teams can use the power of the U-turn to slow down another team forcing them to back track yadda yadda .. but in a new twist this is whats known as a blind u-turn. Previously when teams forced another team to u-turn they had to post their own picture and be known as the perpetrators. Now they can remain anonymous.

But if you want to look further into CBS' description, perhaps the throwing under the bus means M/L used it on Jaime/Cara. In an insider clip this week, Cara says she and Jaime would have a tough time U-Turning M/L because they've become good friends with them. Is that foreshadowing to the program description? Does the Blind U-Turn throw out the U-Turn rules? That would make for some interesting TV if M/L got to use the U-Turn again.

Here's that clip I was talking about:



Keep what Cara said in the back of your mind. Unless Phil says M/L cannot use the U-Turn again, then everything is in play.

Maybe when Margie/Luke hit the U-Turn, Kisha/Jen are already ahead of them and to save themselves from elimination, M/L make the hard decision to U-Turn the reds.

I think that video was taken in Guilin, not Beijing. Hmmm... Beijing is a metropolis, not a rural area. Correct me if I'm wrong. Or maybe it was taken at Beijing in the morning?

TARAsia Fan:
It was, but Cara & Jaime are not going to change their mind about Luke/Margie until they see the U-Turn.
