The teams on the train are getting pretty competitive. They're all willing to U-Turn.

Huh? Not one of the first 6 teams elected to U-turn anybody. Since they had no knowledge of what was going on for the way-behind second group, only the first group would have been a potential target. Although some teams made it sound altruistic, their decision not to U-Turn anyone made perfect sense. It preserves their right to U-turn for any that happen later in the race. If they had used it on any other team, the 15 minutes or so that it cost that team would not have made any appreciable difference in the finish results.

I was referring to the second train because at that time, most of the teams on the first train had already arrived at the pit stop.

They can't decide whether to U-Turn Caitlin & Brittany or Rob & Kelley because they don't know who is behind. Commercial.

If the U-Turn wasn't blind, they would have known Caitlin & Brittany were the only team behind them. :oh

How would Gary/Will have known? They did not know due to the anonymous aspect that Rob/Kelley U-turned them and those 3 teams were the only ones on the 1050am train to Bangil.

I think what was meant was - If it's not blind U-TURN, Rob and Kelley would have to plant their face on the U-TURN board. As a result, Gary and Will will most likely U-TURN the blondes (whether or not they are behind doesn't matter, since it's worth a shot anyway) and not the monster truckers. :)

--- Quote from: starrynight on October 15, 2012, 03:41:54 AM ---Nobody deserves to go home because of getting lots of bad taxis.  I heard excuses from people on another forum about the last episode with people saying they can't have tried different taxis (even though they did).  I think people want to think the right elimination happened and so think badly of whoever gets eliminated.  I actually liked their passion for the race, which I think was better than the team that survived.  I suspected they would get eliminated though because they showed them being overly confident in an earlier interview segment.

The tasks still pretty much suck, either too easy or too quick.  The main drama is still who gets the most bad taxi drivers.  Maybe they should make the taxi drivers the stars of the show?

Taxis have always been part of the show. A bad driver isn't anything new.
