Doubt seriously that will happen! :waves:

--- Quote from: georgiapeach on June 01, 2018, 11:03:36 AM ---The problem with Racers vs Fans is that ANYONE who has raced previously has a HUGE advantage against someone who has not...a lot of the mechanics of racing/directions/cameras/interviews etc is learned along the way. Someone who knows the system will have a huge advantage, at least for the first few legs.

Maybe they could try a "Pro-Am" format, where one 'normal/every day contestant' is paired up with a celebrity/TAR All Star.
Here's a twist idea, one leg, teams will be split up and paired with another partner (twist on an intersection) randomly. You could then either
a. eliminate the last team and the remaining 2 players that formed the new team remain in the game as a new
team
b. eliminate both teams
c. keep everyone, but the two teams would start last with some sort of penalty
d. losing teams get put back together and head to head determines who leaves.
G.B.:
Well, I gotta say... The Amazing Race (US) is now two for two on taking elements invented in International versions and ruining them. First the Head-to-Head and now the Must-Vote U-Turn with its stupid method of public voting as a way to inject artificial drama.
See, this is what makes it so hard to say whether or not you like or dislike a season. Season 31 has been really great so far, even if it has my least favourite racer of all time in it, but it still has the bad Head-to-Head and the bad U-Turn in it, which really sours things. Do I like 31, do I hate 31? I really don't know.
Where are we going in the future? Maybe back to Season 25 style? That one was good...
