I WOULD like them to keep the EP in the race, though just one, especially since we have a save, too. That's what I'm hoping for :wohoo:

Like in season 21, Abbie & Ryan won the Double Your Money chance on Leg 1, while Natalie & Nadiya won the EP on Leg 2.

If I were the producer I'd make a Double-your-money twist for leg 1 winners and double-EP for leg 2, the Save for leg 3 and the Salvage Pass for leg 4, hence I'd save a large sum of cost. LOL

It's a cheap shot, but it works out ;)

Adding a new twist, don't forget a "Cheat [A Task]" card in Leg 5. :lol:

What? No EP  :ascared ? Then I would be very sad to see this great twist to be gone.  :'(
I want to see more of the EP Drama just like Tim & Marie did in TAR23.

Not to say death, did it rarely happen that someone got injured on The Amazing Race?

The only injury accident in my memory was that Dave broke his Achilles in S22. (Just discount Claire's watermelon in S17; it was not a big deal lol.)

It was a big deal... for Claire and the baby inside her at that time.  :funny:

Jokes aside for Amazing Race (US edition), the only injuries apart from Connor I remember was Lance's injury in Season 5, Gretchen in Season 7, and Mel's hypothermia in UB.

25 seasons and only those few injuries. Not a bad record.

I'm skimming to try to catch up here so I may have missed if someone else posted this, but James and Abba (can't remember which one) had an injury.  If I recall correctly, he broke a bone in each leg but didn't realize it until he got home running a couple legs (no pun intended) while injured.

Renee Rodgers TAR8 had a concussion at the Starting Line as well, but didn't realize until after they were eliminated.

Who were the former Amazing Racers at the TAR25 starting line? I thought I recognized someone, but the camera shot went too fast.

Yes. This is what exactly happened on Season 25 where Leg 2 was awarded EP while bigger twist was awarded on Leg 1. Thank god EP still exist.

Didn't Kent broke some ribs in UB?
Also one of Shahla & Nabeela in TARC2 suffered from hypothermia I think.

No,  no one has ever been in last with the express pass and been saved by a NEL so no one has ever had a speed bump with it let alone use it on a speed bump

This may sound like a stupid question..

Say 4 teams are on a race to the mat and all arrive within the same minute, then another team arrives a minute later.. Then, would the start times be odd?

Ex.:
Team A, B, C, D arrives at pit stop at 7.30 PM
Team E arrives at pit stop at 7.31 PM

Would that mean..
Team A, B, C and D depart from pit stop at 7.30 AM, 7.31 AM, 7.32 AM, and 7.33 AM respectively.
Team E departs from pit stop at 7.31 AM

Would that mean Team E starts the next leg earlier than C and D even though its placement the previous leg is lower than C and D?

Hmm.. ???

Nope. Team E gets pushed back as well. They'll depart at 7:34 AM instead.

My follow-up question, has this happened before?

Last season leg 2 (Mark and Mallory's elimination), where the 3rd to 7th place team appeared together? (I think)
