TAR 17 EP 8 "Ali Baba in a Suit" (Muscat, Oman)
Kiwi Jay:
I just can't get over the fact Nick and Vicki make it to the Top4...I really dislike them as racers, just terrible! Glad Oman is the destination, very varied places this season!
Prophet:
The title of this episode could refer to a business-like task. Ali Baba, as you probably know, is a fictional character. Oman has no shortage of industry and business areas (or deserts).

I can stand their bad racing for a reason I couldn't stand Andrew & Dan or Brian & Ericka's bad racing -- they're at least self-aware about how their skills pale in comparison to most of the other teams' and know they're not the best ones there, but still willing to try their best to beat them. Compared to the other two teams, who were truly deluded about their abilities (or lack thereof) and that they were the best teams of their seasons.
So, so, so excited to hear about Oman! They haven't been there since season nine, correct?

Yes, that was the site of the famous Camel detour and B.J. and Tyler's frustration. That should be the Switchback if there is one.

Could you refresh our memories concerning this famous camel detour that frustrated BJ and Tyler?
