Some interesting (and some not so interesting) facts and records!
theschnauzers:
I'll have this in greatest specifics when I update the ranking the teams thread list for TAR 20, but Rachel-Dave are the best performing placement average for a winning team (1.8333), greatest percentage of winning legs on a Race (67%), most number of winning legs (8 of 12) surpassing Meghan-Chenye TAR 15 (7 legs) and Nick-Starr TAR 13 (7 legs), and second best team overall performance placement average (second only to Eric-Jeremy in TAR 9 (1.6923)).
Rachel-Dave are the first team ever to avoid elimination on a leg while not completing a detour or a roadblock and not having a fast forward available. They're also the sixth team to win the first leg and win the Race. (Rob-Brennan TAR 1, Tyler-James TAR 10, Nick-Starr TAR 13, Meghan-Cheyne TAR 15, Enrie-Cindy TAR 19)
Rachel-Dave are the first team ever to reach the finish mat on the final leg and be turned back for not completing a task (in this case, a second roadblock).
Mark and Bopper are the second team to win a fast forward and be eliminated. (TAR 3 Dennis and Andrew).
Alenaveda:
Eric Sanchez was the only racer who reaches the F3 in the two seasons he took part (TAR9 and TAR11), each one of them with a different partner (Jeremy Ryan and Danielle Turner). He also has the highest number of legs raced on the history of TAR, 26 (considering the double leg of TAR9 - Russia/Germany - as two separated legs).
Charlie90:
Of all the FF users in 20 seasons, only six of them didn't arrive in first place.
-Joe & Bill 4th
-Dennis & Andrew 10th
-Monica & Sheree 4th
-Tyler & James 2nd
-Rob & Kimberly 3rd
-Bopper & Mark 5th
Incidentally, D&A and B&M, were eliminated because of it.
Also, season 10 and 11 were the only ones (so far) to have a Intersected FF.
bc922:
To date, every single team who has won the Express Pass has made it into the final 3 (TAR17: Jill & Thomas, TAR18: Gary & Mallory, TAR19: Ernie & Cindy, TAR20: Rachel & Dave). Looking at the international seasons, TARAus1: Sam & Renae and TARLA3: Felipe & Alejandro, also accomplished it too.
Air:
Heather & Eve were the first team to arrive first at a pitstop and get ELd.
Also Mary & Peach were the first all female team to win a leg of the race.
Emily & Nancy were the first team to get ELd from a penalty.
