I noticed that too. It makes no sense to take away a teams money and possestions if they arent going to need it anyway. I'm glad that this leg is dragging out...
I cringe every time I hear them invoke the name of Jesus or God. First of all, would God really care if they win this race? Would God even help them since...
Exactly! I WANTED to see the Weavers have to try and beg for money - what's up with that?!?!? They got off WAY too easy. I guess the only consolation is that...
I guess it was probably just dumb luck that the Weavers must have fueled
the SUV before getting into Salt Lake City. I wondered when they lost all
their money...
So if people don't act Christain-like.... God won't help them? lol ... From: "Terri" <terrygerry1@...> To: <theamazingraceoncbs@yahoogroups.com> Sent:...
I thought they said at the beginning of the race that they didn't have to pay for gas.... Anybody else hear that? ... From: "randy-scott" <scotty9ca@...>...
For someone to be able to help someone else, I think they would actually have to exist. I think if the Weavers need navigation along the race they should buy a...
as far as I know and going by past races, the only thing that is free is
the air ticket and the rest comes out of the money they receive at the
beginning of...
It was mentioned before leg 1 that BP was providing the gas. They each have a BP card for getting gas. -Mark- ... free is ... the ... race but I ... have to ...
There are plenty of other message boards that discuss religion. If you feel the need to invoke your own beliefs, please turn to those areas... ... people did ...
The free gas thing you are referring to should be the prize the Bransens won for coming in first for one of the legs. They can have free gas at any BP station...
Yes, but for the race all the teams get gas and airplane tickets for free, as Phil said at the very start. Mark was right. And it probably is a BP card, since...
now that Mark has mentioned it, I remember Phil saying that.. I stand corrected. It was still lame how they made it through the day with out having to beg for...
I couldn't believe that also Mark. Linz family was in first, but when the other teams started arriving before them I thought maybe they got lost or something....
Either way, this has happened many times before and the teams were always given a time credit. This is so sad. -Mark- ... battery ... due ... the ... been ......
I agree with everything you said. What really got me with that episode also was the fact that it was a yield, and it didn't really pay any dividends for the...
Seems a bit strange to me to put a yield in a non-elimination round. Why bother? Yes it delayed the yielded team, but there were no real consequences. It...
this has been the lamest race of all..take away their money in a country
where they speak the language and their is a good chance there will be

This was a one-time only experiment. TAR 9, which finishes filming in the next 10 days, is back to the norm. -Mark- ... country ... will be ... other teams ...
I must be the only one that likes TAR 8.. Yes I have complained about the Weavers and all but, I have enjoyed the race itself..I understand that some of the...
I am also enjoying TAR 8. I give the producers credit for trying something a little different, instead of the same old, same old like on Survivor, The...
Adrienne, because of children members as they had some young ones maybe that is why they did not go overseas. I do enjoy seeing my country, America as much if...
This is the first TAR I've watched all the way through, so maybe I'm not qualified to comment, but I really like the "family" dynamic. I think that maybe one...
With each team, but (usually) off camera, is a camera man and a production assistant. Generally the cameraman sits in the front seat and the PA sits in the...
In the first episode, when the teams are all lined up prior to the start and Phil gives the simplified rules, he did tell them that they would not have to pay...
the problem with the family edition was not so much 'the cost'. the airlines comp the tickets in exchange for showing the plane taking off for advertising...
