That's great work Krazi.   :t-up:

When I get home I was planning on counting cars for TAR5,6,7 to see if they routinely have an extra in the line.

gingerman28:
The cars at the beginning of EP4 I think are a dead giveaway!We have only 7 teams now left. The Bransens take car no. 1 and when the Linz arrive (the second team to leave 3 minutes later) there are 7 cars in a row with a gray one to the far left.  When the last two teams arrive (again 3 minutes apart but the Gaghans are catching up to the Paolos) there are now only two cars left with the gray one still on the far left!)  In otherwords, one extra car has left before the last two teams arrive.

CBS has been doing a lot of post-production editing to keep numbers in line with what they want us to believe is correct. At the centrifuge, numbers from 1 to 8 are shown in extreme closeup with a similar hand picking each off. In one shot the hand comes out of a long sleeve (I can't recall the team now) but I do remember that no body on that team had a long sleeved shirt on.

In signing up for the bus ride from Chalrston SC to Huntsville AL, we see teams signing up for the first and second bus and the clipboard is on a green counter with light colored edge.  In the closeups of team names on the signup sheet with four lines for each bus, the clipboard is now on a solid brown surface with no edges showing.  Obviously, this clipboard is not in the location on which the teams are signing. And we have this same close up, with the same angle, with the same backgroung (different from the actual counter) after each team signs in.  Moreover, when the Schroeders sign in (no. 3 on the list) you can make out what seems to be 3 names already on the list. (The Godlewski sisters are the fourth team to sign in.)

We can reach an almost definite conclusion on the number of teams if we can catch the numbers on the backpacks of all the teams. Each teams backpacks all carry the same yellow tag with number on it.  So far I have identified the following:

#1 - ?
#2 - ?
#3 - Linz
#4 - ?
#5 - ?
#6 - Weaver
#7 - Paolo
#8 - Aiello
#9 - Schroeder
#10 - Gaghan

If a #11 shows up for one of the unknowns, we got it made, mates. But still the mystery team could just by chance by the #11 backpack.

banzai:
episode 1, 11 cars.

cinni:
wow, our own new game, hunt for the missing racers.

just one dumb question, would cbs have an extra whatever just in case there is a problem with one of the other whatever? ie, if one of the cars won't start, they already have one sitting there ready to go. don't want to keep kids waiting and all.

Chateau d If:
That's what makes this so hard.  We have to sort that out.

GMan, that 3rd name on the list may be a big clue.  I will take a look at it later on.

Unless someone can upload the shot!

Also, remember those extra people who showed up in the USSRC spoiler shots (start of Leg 4)?  Need to look closer.

Where did those shots come from?  Do we have higher resolution versions to work with?
