Topic: TAR 27 - Pre-race Speculation: (No wishlists)

[fossil-racer]

India is possible but would they during a heat wave?
In tar 14 Margie almost passed due to the heat  so would they do another leg under intense heat?

I don't think they will visit China unless it is the replacement.
The only Asian country they might visit would be Cambodia.

The route could be very well S America, Europe, 1 Asian leg, and a ton of Oceania legs.

What about India?

Mark also had an issue doing a dancing task in the heat. I'd love to see a superhot leg to be honest but with the heat wave making such headlines I wouldn't be surprised if they skipped northern India in favor of the south (or skipped India all together which would be sad).

TARCAN3 did visit New Delhi (northern India) during the heat wave. So it was a possible to visit India during the heat wave, but I think they might favour more to southern India leg (Chennai for instance).

I have bad hopes they have so many restricted countries, we may have many replacement legs especially if we had planned legs in Korea, Canton, India and the Middle East

I think they never visit South America in two consecutive seasons before,but who knows? I still think this season will focus on Asia and Europe, and perhaps 2-3 Oceania legs.

After reading all this MERS talk and earthquake talk, now I'm thinking that countries like the Philippines won't be visited for sure. This might include Chile, Japan, etc.

And after reading all those, there is a good chance Asia will be skipped. Still, China is possible. Russia I think is okay? How about Cyprus as a new country to be visited? It's safe right? Maldives, India, and Sri Lanka I think are fine? I don't know about Central Asia.

If they're gonna skip Asia, the route might be South America --> Europe --> Africa --> Europe --> Australia + Oceania.
I would say Antarctica, but that would be wishing.

[SamualDude]

If we don't get Asia this season then I would expect a few legs in Oceania as well as either Africa or South America.

[TARloveit]

Excited on the possible Asia-free route so much, it's a huge risk but it's nice for me

Obviously, we had a recent South America visit in TAR26. If either going to skip Middle East and Korea, the route will go Eastward and be started in Central America --> Europe --> Africa --> Europe --> Asia

It might chance to travel 4 continent race.

Africa is likely to be skipped cause Africa has been visited in two consecutive seasons ( altough TAR 25 & 26 had a great leg in Africa ), and Australia ( or Oceania.. ) is possible to be visited again ( we've never seen Australia again since TAR 18 and Oceania since TAR 22, right? ), so are South and North America ( Brazil or Canada everyone? )

and yeah i will be feel sorry to the producers if they skip Asia ( Altough it's logical due to MERS and political affairs out there )    Asia has offered many great legs and drama for many seasons

Phil hasn't tweeted lately. Last tweet was Jun 2, so could the race be starting soon? I hope so.

[gabriel90]

So when they say Asia Free race does that include The middle part in Asia!? Like the UAE for example, Dubai has dramatically changed since the last time they went there on the Amazing race! Plus there is Lebanon, which I can't remember them visiting it ever before! I am interested in these two bcz one is my home country and the other is my resident country

Welcome to RFF

[TARloveit]

Can you please tell me how that's a sign that the race is starting today?

[Xarles]

A very merry #UnRaceDay, to you! Yes, you...

Or not?

[MrDeerShank]

Can you all just calm down... As soon as the race starts, we'll know. For now, don't go, "Oooh, some guy posts a tweet, must be starting today!!" because it just detracts from what this place actually is meant for.

[Declive]

Boy, i hope so. This forum is dead these last days...

Yep, not much activity in the reality world at the moment. Survivor 30 and BBCan 3 are over, TAR Can 3 finished filming at the end of last month. All that's really going on until TAR 27 starts racing is TAR China.

[fossil-racer]

It looks like the race didn't start
Maybe tommorrow
