Schloss Schallaburg is about 80 miles west of the Vienna Airport, just off the A-1......so teams drove 80 miles to get that book, then 80 miles back to Vienna to do the Detours........then back down the same highway, the A-1 to Salzburg to do the RB and Pit Stop.

Well, how else could they had advertised the new Ford Focus and the famous back camera? :lol:
They only time we can actually see the cars is usually when the get on them at the beginning, if they had gone straight from the airport to Vienna and picked up the cars later it would't be a very effective product placement.

It gave the teams something to do in the early morning hours, spread out the field, avoided HoO and let them film the Detour during daylight hours.

Is this the first time we're at Leg 9 and still have 6 teams remaining since Season 12?
Jobby:
Okay i checked. This is indeed the FIRST time we still have 6 teams remaining going into Leg 9.
Only Season 7,8,9,12 and 13 had 4 teams remaining, the rest all had 5 remaining teams.
A TAR first, i think.. with the "NELs" placed on 1st, 3rd and on the 8th leg.
Not that i'm complaining.. it saved me from dying of sadness to have 3 of my favourite teams eliminated in a row. :lol:

Question -
How could Zev & Justin have passed almost every other team on the road to Salzburg without speeding? Aren't there rules on the race that regulate speed on the roads? I'm surprised they did not receive a penalty...
