I still have no information about Team Kiwi on our wiki (age, hometown, full name). Do you have some I can use?

--- Quote from: CanadianOwl on August 26, 2016, 12:09:10 PM ---Is Leg 7 of Season 9 the only leg where the leg placements are the reverse of the team's final placements (B.J. & Tyler were 5th, ended up 1st; Eric & Jeremy were 4th, ended up 2nd; Ray & Yolanda were 3rd, and ended up 3rd; Joseph & Monica were 2nd, ended up 4th; Fran & Berry were 1st, ended up 5th)

To answer my own post, the penultimate legs of TAR 7 & 25 are the only other legs to have this distinction.

TAR 7 Leg 11 (12 if the double leg counts as two):
Uchenna & Joyce were 3rd and last on the leg, ended up 1st
Rob & Amber were 2nd on the leg, ended up 2nd
Ron & Kelly were 1st on the leg, ended up 3rd.

TAR 25 Leg 11:
Amy & Maya were 4th and last on the leg, ended up 1st
Misti & Jim were 3rd on the leg, ended up 2nd
Adam & Bethany were 2nd on the leg, ended up 3rd
Brooke & Robbie were 1st on the leg, ended up 4th (and eliminated mid-way through the final leg)

--- Quote from: TAR456 on June 13, 2017, 02:47:06 AM ---Technically, Charla & Mirna is first all-female team to make final 3 by team existence (they raced in TAR 5, but finished 6th and later returned in TAR 11, made into final 3). As we already know, Lyn & Karlyn are first by appearance chronologically (they only raced in TAR 10, and made into final 3). I don't know how to put words for this however, anyway.

And by this logic, technically Kisha & Jen were also first all-female team to win TAR in American edition, as they returned to win TAR 18.
