NoLongerLurking:
I have read that a CBS press release shows a stamp task for episode 11, but can't seem to find the release.  Does anyone know where I should look?  Thanks!

Nevermind, I found it.

What happen if you get a penalty in the final leg?? I know it hasn't happened before, but just curious....

This is ALL SPEC, but I guess it would get enacted at the Finish Line (though I suspect Phil/TPTB would rather turn them away to correct their mistake). If there's a change in winner, it would definitely get shown, but otherwise I think they would apply the penalty time off camera.

Mister RC:
I'm also thinking that it's due to the fact that it would be a major disappointment if someone had to sit out a penalty in a finale, and then lose that way.  If there's anything that would force a timed penalty or a penalty that would have a team get to the end point only to be directed back to the task, it would probably be enforced at that final point and not at the mat.  If I'm Phil/TPTB, I would want to make sure that prior to the ride to the Finish Line, that a team is "eligible" to hit the mat (penalty-free).

Uchenna/Joyce did get initially turned away because they hadn't paid their final taxi driver; the begging that was shown at the Bonnet House was a result of this.
