Another couple of terrible winners to put on my list of 'Dislikeable Winners'. :cmas11
--- Quote from: Tarfan37 on December 30, 2011, 12:32:59 PM ---What if Will and Tara hadnt lost the final footrace in season 2. Would Phil have given them a penalty for the lost clue? because its to my knowledge u must surrender all clues at the pitstop. but this is techinicaly isnt a pit stop.

Do they get penalties for lost clues? Several other teams have lost clues since Tara & Wil did, and as far as I'm aware, they didn't get any penalties. :cmas5
But still, that's an interesting scenario, Tarfan37!! :cmas16
DavidJunior:
What if, for TAR 15 there were no start line elimination, and instead have a normal elimination at the pitstop in Japan?
How far would Eric and Lisa have gone in the race, and would Maria/Tiffany still be last, and in this case out?

Great question, DavidJunior! :cmas16
Maria & Tiffany would definitely be gone, because they took a 2-hour penalty after losing their two people.
In Leg 2, I presume Garrett & Jessica would still have had their duck troubles. I think Lisa seemed a bit more calm than Ericka or Jessica, so Eric & Lisa would survive.
Marcy & Ron go home in Leg 3 because of their bad Detour choice. Zev & Justin leave in Leg 4 from the passports. Lance & Keri still get lost in the UAE and leave on Leg 5. Mika & Canaan have the slide problems on Leg 6 and still leave there.
Leg 7 is where it gets interesting. I feel confident that it is quite impossible to struggle more than Brian & Ericka did on that leg, after they fell behind at the Roadblock and also had a penalty at the Pit Stop, so they would be eliminated, as Maria & Tiffany are already gone.
Leg 8 is the NEL and then in Leg 9, I guess that Gary & Matt would still go home, unless Eric & Lisa also did not know what a candelabra is.
Leg 10 is another NEL and Flight Time & Big Easy obviously leave on Leg 11.
So Eric & Lisa are officially in the Final Three! I don't know how well they would do there. :cmas5
There is a lot of guesswork in my scenario obviously, and a couple of things could've worked out differently, such as Eric & Lisa getting more lost than Lance & Keri in Dubai, or Eric & Lisa perhaps getting unlucky at the haybales and getting the Speed Bump on Leg 9. :cmas5
What if Preston & Jennifer outran Christie & Jodi to the Leg 1 Pit Stop on TAR14? How much further could they have gone, considering the problems experienced by other teams on certain legs?

Leg 1: Christie and Jodi in 11th
Leg 2: Steve and Linda in 10th still (unless Preston/Jennifer got lost going down the hill as well)
Leg 3: Brad and Victoria in 9th still
Leg 4: Amanda and Kris most likely still in 8th (I feel A/K would still pose a bigger threat than P/J)
Leg 5: NEL
Leg 6: They would need to beat out the stuntmen to stay in it (Mark/Michael in 7th)
Leg 7: Mel and Mike still fall behind and come in 6th
Leg 8: NEL and unless they messed up big time too, Kisha and Jen would be getting the penalty
Leg 9: Would have to beat Jamie and Cara (J/C in 5th)
Leg 10/11: Just don't get lost and you're in the final
Leg 12: Still think that Tammy and Victor would win out
i think there are a couple more occasions where they would have to show some racing skill to survive, more so than in Eric/Lisa's season, but they could MAYBE make the finals
Jobby:
I don't agree. I think Eric and Lisa won't even make it to the Final 7/8.
