But I totally do NOT get having a NEL negate the whole double U-Turn...strange placement.

In my opionion, they were planning on a schedule like this:

Leg 4: NEL
Leg 5: Intersection; elimination
Leg 6: elimination
Leg 7: elimination

But, because of Summer and Eachan quitting, it is going to be like this

Leg 4: NEL
Leg 5: elimination
Leg 6: elimination
Leg 7: NEL
Leg 8: Intersection

I think they still want to have an Intersection with 6 teams. :)

I understand why Lily & Jan were upset, but their reasoning didn't make sense. If one of the front runners is behind you, why wouldn't you U-turn them out of the race? Why would you U-turn someone already in last place? I guess everybody has a different strategy for yields/u-turns.

Heehee. I still  :hrt: Lily and Jan, just because they're the most entertaining team (I don't see how Maryand Cecilia can be that entertaining, but each to their own) and because they Yielded Mary and Cecilia. I hope to see a big comeback in the next leg!

Also, what was with Sun Bin's sore loser attitude at the pit stop?  He didn't seem happy at all.  They came in second which is still really good.  It did look like he was having problems running as well so it seems his foot isn't fully healed.

Preview says Tameka and Elena struggle to make up time, isn't that nail in the coffin like Howard and Rhe? :lala

I think Lily & Jan's anger with the U-Turn was that they felt that it was done mostly out of revenge.

Mary & Cecilia could have U-Turned the other team that Yielded them, Sun Bin & Hao Fei'er.  After a bad start in the first 2 legs, Sun Bin & Hao Fei'er have been powerhouses in legs 3-6 with three 1st place finishes and one 2nd place finish, while Lily & Jan have been a mixed bag.

My stream was bad today too.
It is interesting how the teams have avoided penalties this season for things that should be penalized.  Like the zip line task; the clue clearly said if they got it wrong they had to go back up and do it again but a few teams just stayed at the bottom and kept guessing over and over, and they weren't given any penalty for it. 

Don't know what Lily and Yan are so mad about.  Got a taste of their own medicine and they don't like it...

So, in Unfinished Business Big Easy, Gary and I think Kisha shared answers too... they didn't get penalty. No different.

Big Time, Zev & Justin and Kisha and Jen shared answers, then Big Time shared with Gary.

I'm not saying they can't share answers, but the clue read like it means each time they ride the zip line they get one attempt to get it right.  If they are wrong they should go back to the top and ride the zip line again, and then have another attempt at giving the answer, repeating this until they get the answer.  The sisters just kept writing different answers and showing them to the guy again and again without re-doing the zip line, until Simon and Katherine came along and the collaborated to get the answer.

To be fair, we do not know what the clue said. We only know what Alan said in his voice over, and that may differ a lot.

That said I would also have preferred that teams only got one guess per crossing.

BEHIND THE SCENES

After EP7 was aired, Lily and Kat had a quarrel on Weibo.com (the biggest microblog site in China, which is similar to twitter.com) about the mean use of U-Turn.

*****UNVERIFIABLE SPOILER*****

This spoiler is now on Wikipedia (Simplified Chinese), concerning the eliminated team in Leg 8. Nobody can verify this news which is not on Wikipedia English.

Tameka and Elena were eliminated.

China Rush Season 2 Episode 8 Intro

 

Six teams continue a race around China for a Hoh Xil expedition and a trip around the world worth 400,000 RMB.

Four simple numbers puzzle most teams, making it difficult to locate their next destination. One team figure out the code quickly, becoming the one in the lead.

While a tough roadblock task creates a struggle to survive, one team is accused of cheating. Intense rivalry develops between two teams.

And an energy-sapping detour leaves the female contestants exhausted - and this starts a big quarrel between loving couples.

In last episode, Elena and Tameka were lucky enough to encounter a non-elimination round. Will their good fortune continue?

Six teams remain, who will be eliminated in this episode?

My stream is fine this week.  Last week I started watching in Firefox, then switched to Chrome and it was a lot better, maybe give it a try?

Lily is one of the most sporadic racers ever, she's goes from likeable to annoying to funny to lovable to charming to irritating in seconds.
Bring on the 21!

The roadblock was one team member had to carry a flag and their rucksack from the 4508m altitude marker up the mountain, though it didn't say how far, then plant the flag at the top to get the next clue.
