Who Do You Think Will Win TAR 17?

They were certainly slow with the Roadblock but did you forget that Nat & Kat had done a great job with the Detour and that Brook & Claire were U-Turned? Nat & Kat would've finished the Roadblock before Brook & Claire (and Chad & Stephanie) anyway.
Brook & Claire have a good chance of winning, I agree, but so do Nat & Kat. And I'll be rooting for them!

No way! The two U-turned teams both completed the hard brick carrying tasks and arrived before Nat was done. She must have taken at least an hour. It would have been a real race at the RB if not for the Uturn and C/S getting lost twice.

I don't know if we're allowed to post TAR 18 contestant spoilers here. But heck, you're in the spoiler section anyway. If i can't moderators please feel free to edit my post.
Sorry, but someone might not want to be spoiled for TAR 18... :(

I think that the rickshaw RB took far longer than it seems. It's not easy assembling 8 parts of a vehicle...
I estimate that the RB took about 1:30, while the detour took 0:45.
Point is, N/K are about as fast as C/S and B/C. What seriously dragged the latter two down was the fact that they actually ran to the pitstop...

no problem peach! thanks for clarifying!

I think you're right, Caelestor! The Roadblock probably was harder than the Detour was (even for Brook & Claire), so Nat was probably close to being done by the time Brook & Claire and even closer by the time Chad & Stephanie arrived. The editing might have made the three teams seem closer at the Roadblock than they really were.
