The finale usually involves cabbies right? That could be a tip for all other teams in future... but Kaylani and Lisa were eliminated for keeping the cab. :cmaslol

Unfortunately. :'( It's what screwed Gallory over :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
They should do what I did in the finale of my first fantasy Race: hire drivers who know where to go beforehand if the teams tell them the correct thing. Surely WRP can afford to pay three safe drivers something for the day. I understand that they can't let million-dollar-pursuing-Racers loose on the roads, so how about hiring trustworthy drivers for the day? :duno:

That, would be completely boring.. wouldn't it? They can definitely afford to pay three drivers to bring the teams around but what's the point? If you've had cabbies assigned on the last leg, you mind as well have cabbies for all the teams throughout the race? :cmaslol

I just think the finale is too important to come down to such random factors. ;D

I am pointing out that this was close to the strategy employed by Colin in AR5's finale when he was desperate to catch up. He somehow made arrangements for a limo pickup at DFW airport. They just might have overcome the time deficit to Chip and Kim if not for the flat tire they got from riding illegally in the breakdown lane on the right side of the road. The difference is that Colin completely controlled this and WRP did not get in the middle of it. I found this quite exciting. However, I also find exciting the "taxi driver makes the difference" situation as with Thomas and Jill in the AR17 finale.
