- TAR 15's Eat the Wasabi Roadblock in Japan
- TAR 16's In the Trenches or Under Fire Detour in France

I can tell you love that Detour because you used it in TAR:CK. :lol:
But yeah, I agree. We need another Japanese Game Show Roadblock. :)

Because I love tasks that can make teams struggle really much that may give an unpredictable result. *if you know what I mean :lol:

Please, no. Not memorable at all, at least for me.

I would say no to this one as well. Memorable but not classic TAR. Too manufactured and fake. A second time would only make it worse.
But I agree that the TAR 6 lock Roadblock would be good, as well as the TAR 7 meat Roadblock and TAR5's Lagen wall climb.
Hm...as for TAR 9, how about the crickets Fast Forward? Or perhaps the epic final challenge involving the flags. For TAR 10 we could revisit the Great Wall climb, the Detour or Roadblock from Leg 2 (both excellent tasks), or the Lug It or Lob It Detour. For All-Stars, it could be fun to bring back the Eat It Up or Roll It Out Detour. :lol:

I don't think so. It would seem to unbalanced if that was it.

This IS correct. That is why they alll had to go out EARLY the next AM and do TinTin. Product placement!
Declive:
The meat and the mails , both on Argentina.
RaceUntilWeDie:
TAR 17 leg 1 coracle task is one of those tasks that had potential but the teams were a little too far apart on that leg.
It'll never happen but I would be happy if they brought this task back :-[
