EP 9 East Coast SHOW updates and commentary **please read the rules**
apskip:
I think Jet made a poor move by not immediately going back to the start point as soon as he realized he had made wrong turns. How could he possibly get an accurate mileage (or kilometerage) if he was off-course. There was no way that his final number could be correct the way he did it, so going to the end with a bad number just wasted a lot of time. I believe that the train schedules throughout Switzerland run approximately once every hour at about the same time (Note: this is definitely true for Visp to Zermatt). So Jet pretty much guaranteed that his team would reach Zermatt at least one hour behind any other teams that got an accurate number.

They went out with style.
But if Justin hadn't helped The Trotters with the RB, it may have been a different result. :groan:

I think all the teams helping one another but the cowboys (and Vyxsin rules on her own) sealed their fate. I can say in someway the teams were aligning to knock the cowboys out of the race.. but the cowboys going solo indirectly sealed their own fate too.
I would have hoped for Globetrotters to be eliminated.. but they've been really good sport these few episodes so my love for them is growing.. as compared to Jet and Cord... :(

I think the producers shld set a rule tt teams cant help each other except for intersections. I mean, its not fair at all aint it. Everyone except for the cowboys kent/vyxin zevjustin cheated at the roadblock? Its just ridiculous haha.

Gary didn't cheat at the RB I don't think. Anyhoo... The biggest mistake that the Cowboys made was Jet thinking he was so smart and sneaky and leaving Gary in the dust... Karma baby! Smack in the face at the end. He should have stayed with Gary.
GeKKou:
good point, i wish cord did the RB.
He works well with other teams.
Maybe Cord can bring his wife to race TAR in future.....

Wow, I'm actually surprised that Jet and Cord were eliminated at 6th place. I thought they'd be going to the Final 3! One reason I love this season so much - we just don't know who's going.
Yay for Gary and Mallory staying alive! I thought that they were toast at the beginning of the leg when their cab driver was going so slowly and put them in last place. Thankfully, they caught up!
And who'd have thought that Zev and Justin would be doing so well this season! First place four times? Wow. I thought that they'd be gone by the Final 6/7, but they're still here and going so strong.
I'm sad that Jet and Cord were eliminated. Gary and Mallory survived, but Jet and Cord didn't, so my 3 favourite teams have left in a row. Sigh.
The awesome thing is... We don't know who's winning this! It's so hard to tell!
