I just rewatch TAR 21 earlier today. One thing come to my attention, in Moscow Josh & Brent were "forced" to take a penalty for not completing the synchronized swimming detour. The interesting fact is they were handed a 4 hours penalty instead of 6 hours. I remember Nick & Vicki took a 6 hours penalty for not completing a detour task in Hongkong. So my question is does the rule have changed? 4 hours penalty for not completing a detour?

Yes. The rules of penalties are not consistent season to season. Mostly because it depends a lot on production schedule. It used to be way longer. I'm gonna try not to spoil what exactly happened but the one that comes to mind was the detour penalty in Season 1, one of the teams thought they would be the last team to arrive so after hours of searching for a location they decided not to complete the detour and were issued a 24 hours penalty. If successfull they would've been safe that leg and the team that won the Fast Forward would've been eliminated.

Hey, long-time lurker here! I didn't quite know if I should post this in the ongoing apps thread but decided to just ask here because it's a pretty general question:
Do we have an idea of about how many of the teams from recent seasons have actually applied for the race (made and submitted a video/went to a casting call) as opposed to having been recruited by casting and then told to make a tape?
I'm planning on finally applying for the 29th season with my boyfriend but am a bit intimidated because I feel like a lot of the teams nowadays are simply recruits ???

I think it was because Josh & Brent were forced while Nick & Vicki wanted to quit.
