1 hour and 31 minutes to go. Will M/R's 5-in-a-Row be finally broken? Who will be eliminated? I can't wait.

Great episode!!! I think it was one of the best TARA episodes ever.

Hands down, the best line uttered by any racer came from Henri. He said that the winners of this race should be athletic, great thinkers, and must be able to communicate well with each other. So, he continues, if ever they win this race, then it's a fluke!

So Popo, did you watch?!

Yay for M/R for coming in first 5th time in a row. Because if they don't win i'll have a good laugh for at least my eternal life. :laff:

So...Adrian/Collin has 6, or 5 (depending on your definition of a leg) first place finishes in a row. Is that a new record as well?

M/R has 6 in a row 1st places. C/A has 4 in a row 2nd places. I think these 2 will duke it out in the Final 3. I think V/P will join them in the Final 3.

By the way, Popo keeps on editing my posts. So much for Freedom of Ideas, Speech, and Expression.

Popo: I have no problem with you proclaiming that M/R has 6 1st places in a row. BUT, I have a problem with you CORRECTING my perception that they won only 5 in a row. You say so much for freedom of idea, speech and expression, but have you respected my idea, speech and expression then? Go and think about it, and this is my FINAL WARNING to you before i report this to Rhune.

Yeah, it's six first places in a row and five second places in a row.

And there pretty much has to be an FF next leg.

That was the best ever TARA I've seen. Kudos to the leg designer(s). I thought it would never end. It was just great. I have 5 comments.

1. Again excellent work Marc and Rovil. 6 will be hard to beat. I wanna see them lose but extending a record to greater lengths is as interesting.

2. It seems the suspense at this point hangs on 2 areas. First, its no longer a question of who will win the next leg but can the Marc and Rovil duo make it 7? Oh wow - fans of both are screaming in separate ways ... lol. Second, after having been saved by two NELs, its no longer a question of who will be eliminated but will Teri and Henri finally get the boot?

3. I really really like the HOLEY statue stunt that the leg designer pulled. It really tests the racers to do more than the extra-ordinary. Not only that, it's a good bunch up place that allows other to catch up. But most of all we see who's wise and who's not. Was it ever done before?

4. The leg is long and totally unpredictable. One minute one team pulls away and then the next they're all bunched up together. One moment I thought Teri and Henri won't finish the leg and suddenly they almost caught up with Pam and Vanessa. I like the "bunching areas" in this leg and there was aplenty.

5. The NEL at the end blew me up. Two consecutive NELs saving the same team was both exciting and disappointing (depending on which side u'r on). As for me I was simply blown. I was expecting them gone and then....

Well it seems spoilers were wrong again. There was no INTERSECTION and NO FF. And no MORVIAN lady. In any case they may be holding the next leg still in Pargue or Budapest and if the pictures hold true ... intersection comes in the next leg.

So there everybody ..it was a good and exciting leg so I hope whichever side ur on, you enjoyed the show.

Zippo, you think they have 6 first places in a row, so keep on thinking that. If Popo wants to think they have 5, let him. It isn't necessary to make such a big deal of it, ok?

Exactly, go ahead and think that they have six. And hell, why do i even think it's 5 in a row? I forgot there's a TBC in the middle there so basically they had 3 in a row, TBC and another 3 in a row. So basically their record now is still 3 in a row. Thanks for reminding me of the TBC.

As I said before, I think they won 6 in a row, and you don't. So let's just agree to disagree. Fair enough?

That's what he's been trying to say for the past weeks. :laff:

I just can't wait until next week when you two get into it again when you say it's 7 in a row and he says it's 6 or 4. :laff:
