The Amazing Race: What If

<< < (32/371) > >>

slayton:
Luke said that he could have and would have used the second U-Turn in Beijing, racer, because he still had his team picture/sticker to put on the U-Turn board.

The other seasons might have changed the rules though, because Louie & Michael said something once about making the other teams think that they could still use the U-Turn in the post-Blind U-Turn legs, although it could be that they either lost their picture or they were not very smart when it came to gameplay.

Jobby:
Luke could still play their U-TURN cause they still had their courtesy of photo.

Glamazon Racer:
That's really interesting! I thought maybe that teams had to hand their 'Courtesy Of' Photo to Phil at the Pit Stop, or something along those lines (if they used a Blind U-Turn). I find that really intriguing that teams could potentially use multiple U-Turns! :cmas16

EDIT: Might as well add a new 'What If' Scenario: :cmas16

What if John Vito & Jill made it to the first Pit Stop in Ecuador (on TAR11) ahead of Kevin & Drew. Assumably, John Vito & Jill would've been able to survive the next leg (just my opinion) and they were a decent team on TAR3, so how much further do you think they could make it on TAR11 if they survived Leg 1?

(By the way, I find it really funny how they got eliminated twice due to navigational difficulties. :torche

apskip:
racer,

Elimination twice due to navigational difficulties is not funny at all. It's tragic. No team can do well in an Amazing Race if they are incompetent at navigation, which John Vito and Jill certainly proved to be.

The Blind U-Turn may be ressurrected at some point, but it has faded into irrelevance after AR14 because it has not been part of the design for any seasons. World Race Productions seems to have put the focus on Double U-Turns instead.
