1. Once you've used the U-turn, you can't use it again. Why would Michael/Louis be angry that someone beat them to a U-turn they can't use?
2. Michael and Louis WANTED to U-turn Carol and Brandy, thus it doesn't make sense for them to say the title.

kwando131:
You are correct that once a regular U-turn is used a team cannot use another REGULAR U-turn. however, you have forgotten from AR14 that a Blind U-turn lets a team still use a regular U-turn. Margie/Luke would have done so if they had beaten Victor/Tammy to the U-Turn. so Michael was entirely justified in being miffed.

but the promo days that "Guess what Brent and Caite do to Carol and Brandy"

We could use the regular U-Turn because we still have our team picture so we still could U-Turn a team if we beat Tammy & Victor to it.

But, a BIG question is.... does Michael & Louie know that they are allowed to use the regular U-Turn? 

mswood:
Yeah a Phil never (in this season of Luke's) mentioned a limit on once a team uses the U-Turn they can't use it again.  We have see for example that they have modified the rules for certain things.  Such as teams being allowed the Fast FOrward twice in a season if they did the first (or 2nd) teamed with another team.

Luke (TAR14) has confirmed that you can.  The key is that in order to use the U-Turn a team has to place their "Courtesy Of" picture on the sign.  Once you've done that you can't do it again.  But for the Blind U-Turn, you don't put your own picture up, so you still have it to use on a regular U-Turn if you want.

unfortunately I do not understand how to insert screenshoot these pages, one is willing to tell me?

Here's the position!
Dan and Jordan: Finished first on this leg, by Fast Forward!
Jet and Cord: Finished second on this leg
Brent and Caite: Finished third on this leg
Louie and Michael: Finished fourth on this leg
Carol and Brandy: ELIMINATED! (U-turned by Brent and Caite!)

Dumb did us in, Michael for the title!

Let us see next Sunday! :)

Oh my gosh! I saw that too.

For the title thing, maybe it's because it was Brent and Caite and not Louie/Mike who U-Turned Carol/Brandy. Needless to say they beat them to the opportunity, hence the title.

Sidenote: I wonder who did that.

--- End quote ---

Well, we'll never know exactly who, but I searched the IP address. The country? Poland. The city? Warsaw. :lol3:

Probably just someone reading the spoilers and speculating. I wouldn't worry about it.

Ahh... OK, thanks Luke!  :lol:
