The Salvage Pass wouldn't be bad either!

It was called the Save. It didn't work out as it just so happened, Misti & Jim's only bad leg was on a "pre-determined" non-elimination leg.

The Salvage Pass and The Save are different. I wish The Salvage Pass will get it on TAR US rather than The Express Pass in earlier legs.

stekay:
Keep the salvage pass/save/faceoff away from TARUS tyvm.

The Uturn is gone so stale now I'd rather us have the Yield/Voting Yield.

Zack.:
Liiiiike lbr the Salvage Pass as TARAus implemented it (1 hour lead or spare a team from elimination) wpuld never get implemented since everyone would choose the head start lol.

One that hasn't come up yet: start eliminating teams at the end of no-rest legs (it keep racers on their toes and leads to a better edit than the sneaky TBC in TAR 28 and 29 or having a sometimes terrible cliffhanger in TAR 18-27)

toanglobal:
Replace Speed bump by handicap as the NEL penalty. Instead of spare task, the penalized team would complete same tasks with other teams but one of them have higher requirement to complete, this type of penalty was used in TAR Norge usually in route info tasks.

G.B.:

This ONLY works on legs that do not leave the country, and this has not happened yet. If Ross & Tarryn had chosen a 1-hour lead, it would have been meaningless because of the flight from Manila to New Delhi. Likewise, Daniel & Ryan DID take the 1-hour lead, and it was meaningless because of the flight from Moscow to Lisbon.

Compare this to the TAR Philippines version, where the team can choose to enter a bunching point (ie, hours of operation) one hour before all other teams.
