Roadblock Count 6 or 7?

I think it is all fair. As opposed to the ladies doing only 1 RB for the entire race in TAR 5 for all final 3 teams. ;) (Kim, Christie and Nicole)

Exactly my thoughts, Joab!

The rule IS 7-5.

I remembered in Season 6 the racers and even Phil, clearly stated that no team member can do more than 6 Roadblocks? :cmas5

The problem is that this rule has never been spoken publicly by anyone associated with WRP, while the 6 roadblock limit was stated in the telecast several times.
One of my personal pet peeves with TAR is the secrecy and deception. Sometimes they mention when a task has been edited out of a broadcast, but most times they don't. I'm in favor of full disclosure. (That's why I enjoy the mat chats and secret scenes so much.)
TAR is still my favorite show and it's so much more exciting with all the sightings and info the RFF Detectives suss out each season.

The secrecy is something we'll just have to learn to live with, I guess. It doesn't change the fact that TAR is my favorite TV show period, which is why the producers don't feel the need to tell us everything.
