How about finally letting teams drive on the Final Leg?
Or finding a way to eliminate taxi luck from the equation?
Think the closest we've come to something like it, I don't know, maybe TAR3 in Seattle or TAR16 in San Francisco where teams had to run around the city for a little bit?

Seattle was all taxi travel. Kerry Park (in northwest Seattle neighborhood), the International Fountain (downtown), Lincoln Park (Southwest Seattle), and Gas Works (across Lake Union) have no correlation in walkable places. Basically, teams only ran about in the parks, not really going from one place to another place.
TAR21's NYC Leg did pretty good with that running around Manhattan with the pizza delivery task.

How about a change to the non-elimination penalty where teams have to pick out of a hat (or pick from envelopes Phil holds) with the choices being:
-Speed Bump
-Automatic U-Turn
-Marked for Elimination
Of course, it'd be a waste of money to have a Speed Bump all ready and not get used though (like the FF), but maybe a simple to set up Speed Bump. (Anyway, TAR loves simple Speed Bumps anyway hmph. lol)

I love that idea! :conf: There are probably more NEL penalties aside from those 3, but those 3 are the best 3 already.
