Obviously with the final teo legs airing back-to-back next week, there won't be an updated interim average after 11 legs, just the final result for the season that will be used to update the main list. I can tell you that except for the Trotters, the other teams can end the season with the best placement average overall. The worse any of those three teams can complete the season is with a 3.7500 placement average; the best is a 3.0000 average.

Here are the final averages for the teams of TAR Unfinished Business.
They'll be incorporated into the primary list soon, and I'll change the thread header when that's done.

I hadn't planned to take weeks, but such as it is.
The rankings are now updated to including the final average placements for the teams that returned for TAR:Unfinished Business (season 18). Some interesting tidbits in the final averages. With the exception of the winners, none of the teams came within one placement of their average from their original season. The best performing team, Gary and Mallory, came in third. The last place team, Kris and Amanda, have the best performance average of any last place team ever; probably due to the fact that the first leg was an NEL. I'm sure there some other interesting statistics there, but thaose were the ones I noticed in updating the main list in the first post. (And yes, I can now correctly state than in the first ten years of TAR, not counting any regional editions elsewhere, there have been 378 Racers.)

Time to prepare for the in-season ranking tracking updates for season 19.
Something to note -- with season 19, we have now had 400 people run the Race at least once. I'll let someone else figure out how many cities and miles that represents. but it has got to be enough to go to the Moon and back several times over.
I expect to start this after episode 2 or 3, depending on how those Race legs are structured (i.e., normal legs, NEL legs, no rest period pit stop legs, what have you.)

I'll be compiling and organizing the information over the next couple of days, now that my notebook is back. It's very difficult to do this using a tablet, especially since I can't use my Word Perfect files.
