*So there you have it:   11 teams of two.
~ LAX

:update:
BVM interview, brought to us by sunnyca

* The youngest team is a tandem of two guys in their early 20s. “They’re made for television,” Van Munster says. “They’re supersmart — and they make terrible mistakes.”

*A pair of recent divorcees in their late 20s also vie for the million-dollar prize. “They were left with some financial debt, so they really have a motive to run around the world,” he says.

*And once again, expect a serving of granola — this time with a husband-wife squad of 60-something Oregon hippies. “They’re the real thing,” says Van Munster. “They come right out of the '60s. To a lot of people, it looks almost like they’re from a different planet.”

Great find Kogs!!

I am not 100% trusting on the time "PDT" because all of their shots have that "PDT" added to the Flicker summary regardless of, or more clearly, without any real "PDT" indicator given in the camera data sets.

already a picture OMG , it's really started :D

thanks kogs -- This reminds me of the Kuwait spoilers from TAR10

I'm crazy I've already started looking for guys with wrist tattos on myspace lol



It reminded me of Izad's role as SuperFan in Kuala Lumpur (if only there were more pics) - nevertheless, it's still awesome.

And if you really are that crazy, I'd say that they would probably be last active a week ago for pre-race sequester (obviously it could be sooner if he lives in LA  :funny: )

Looks doubtful. He doesn't have the TAR fanny pack provided for and used by the racers.

Whoever he is, he has learned to pack LIGHT!!  Nice small backpack and he belongs to Team No. 6.,

Looks like we speculated right that teams were headed to Buenos Aires via Chicago and Dulles (although no filming permits were found for either ORD or IAD.)

It is possible that if they are transiting, and don't actually film, that a permit was not needed. BuT I am rechecking all of this!

Yeah, Man candy.  I wonder if this was part of the male team mention in the spoilers or if he is part of another team (either mentioned or not).

Yeah! I love it when this starts to happen, it always gives me something to do.

So, one thing that intrested me in the photo is that he has the X tattoo on his arm. I googled the meaning of it and got 2 answers that stood out. One menioned the person is "straight edge" and the other said it is the cross of St. Andrew. Maybe it can help with who he is later on.

Same place as the so called contestants , the stem, so they told me goes towards the main vein if that means anything? I'm back to thinking its a bird.

I  remembered racers having a fanny pack with a patch stitched on it with the race colors of yellow and red. I think each a team member is given one. Maybe his partner has it then?   ;)

Okay so we have so far (also in spoilers only section) but worth a post here as well.

1.  A young blonde female team in pink.

2.  Two slacker males in their early to mid twenties.

3.  A team of Hippies (older team, male and female 40-50's perhaps oder) with long white hair

and they are going to Sao Paulo....

Sweet Jesus it is season 9.

Just kidding.

4.  A Mother (apparently or a Cougar perhaps....) with her fit son.  Team #6

5.  A young male/female couple.  No other description.

And we also have confirmation on 11 total teams.

God, have we ever had this much material within four days of the starting gate for an original season.

One thing to clarify.  Are the all caucasian?
