What thread contains the spec route? I need to look at it again.  If 5 is Italy and 3 is Russia, does that leave Ep 4 for Stuttgart?

[puddin]

schedule thread Slowhatch !
It also means the Rome spoiler "9 teams left " is wrong !!

pipe@twops posts

I have it on good authority (I'd tell you, but I'd have to kill you) that Rome, Italy is on the roster for TAR9.

When they reach Rome, there will be nine teams remaining. There will be a task (not sure if it's a detour or a roadblock) where the racers have to put together a disassembled faux-Roman statue

[Hi-Fi]

Why do they keep revealing the destinations in the episode titles??

I mean, it's cool for us 'cause we're trying to figure out the route, but still...a little surprise is always good.

There was a time when TAR producers were more secretive about the race!

[woden]

As for the 9-team spoiler, I wonder if there were extra supplies set out for the task (as they often do) and the "witness" counted supplies, not teams. It's quite possible there could be 7 teams remaining (or even 8 ) with an extra set or two of supplies.

Here's an updated route spec - I think Slowhatch is right - Stuttgard makes sense for EP4.

  Thanks.

Did I miss something?  Where did Stuttgart destination come from??

You sure did. Look at the New Intro Caps thread. This pic was the clue and though everyone was searching their little fingers off, Puddins BF came up with the winner.

Yes and don't forget Porsche’s Weissach test track.

The steep-banked turn we see at begining of the credits is indicated by the arrows:

[Neobie]

Are we ruling out a double non-elimination? Episode 4's title screams non-elim to me...

[banzai]

  If we are lucky, this could be the scene where bj/tyler or Eric/Jeremy are running to the pitstop. The scene is on the ground level. Maybe we can spot Phil and the greeter.

  and this scene is just a Travelocity sightseeing tour. This is a top view.

SHOW TITLE:  The Amazing Race 9 
EPISODE:  Good Thing I Took That Human Anatomy Class in High School 
DATE / TIME:  March 28: 10:00PM

[Hi-Fi]

Nine teams remaining, puddin?? Could the Germany leg be a non-elimination one?

[puddin]

Someone pointed out that pipes might have been a witness to the task as it ws layed out and TPTB might have added an extra set of faux-Roman statue's as we've seen these extras before , TAR8 for example ....Teepees for example .

[Hi-Fi]

Got it!

[x_kicks]

This sounds like what Desiree would say.

But it could also be said by Eric & Jeremy (quite unlikely since they won't be paying attention to any classes in school) or the Double Ds.

[musicman85]

Desiree said something about science during the detour making sugarcane in Brazil, so I'm guessing she's the one saying this quote or either David. Is the date of the show wrong? because I thought the title on March 28 was "kickass we're going to Italy"

[puddin]

musicman85 good point ,I didn't even notice, maybe Kogs can pop in and hep out with the date ?

[gingerman28]

The date confusion for Ep6 ("March 28") may be due to the fact that Ep3 was changed after production ended to a double leg, thus delaying Ep5 and Ep6 by one week. This is what happened in TAR6 in Budapest.

[puddin]

TPTB CHANGED the title !!
I'm not complaining though it still fits in well with the Rome spoiler 

Now I have to wonder if there arent 9 teams left ?!

[claude_24hrs]

They are 8 teams remain. They will go to Sicily for episode 5.

[puddin]

TV Guide hardcopy ( for what little its worth )
Amazing Race CBS
Phil Keoghan will be eagerly awaiting the team's arrivals in Italy for the fifth leg of the race .
We can't seem to get our fill of Phil , a stand out reality host .
He's more likable and he doesn't get in the way or try to show off like some others .
And there's his dramatic pause on the mat. Gotta love that !

[Boingo]

So, since the description of Ep. 6 mentions Sicily, can we assume that Ep. 5 will be mostly Rome and the mainland of Italy?  So Italy may have 2 legs, Rome vicinity and Sicily.  Also the Sicily episode is described in detail, but the Rome episode only has the "assemble the statue" spoiler task.  Does this make any sense.

[puddin]

Makes sense to me Boingo ! EP5 NEL ?? or later ? I guess time will tell .
