I'm ready, Brenchel or no Brenchel. TAR to me isn't so much about the contestants (although I always have my favorites) but about the race itself...to me that is the star of that show. To go to places that I haven't even dreamed about, to be able to do crazy stupid things that I haven't ever heard of (remember those big clear balls that they rolled in one time...I think it was in New Zealand or Australia), and to get to see so much of our world, albeit quickly...lives up to the term Amazing!

Roxip - I SO agree with you! I love to travel, but I realistically know that there are lots of places that I will never get to visit in person, so even a quick snapshot is way better than nothing!

LOL...I re-read my post and it reminded me of the opening of the Star Trek series...but that doesn't surprise me because my first choice would have been to travel in space. Sometimes I think I was born in the wrong place in time...I always wanted to be on the Star Trek Enterprise.

I like Rachel, but I wish her partner was Jordan or Ragan Fox. I don't like the way she and Brendon are together. I haven't watched TAR for the last couple seasons because I got tired of the bickering couples, but I guess I'll watch this cause I'm a sucker.

I'm a bit behind on the news, but noooooooooo, not Rachel and Brendon!!!

Had to giggle at the "as soon as the other teams have to listen to Rachel screaming "Come on Brenden, you can do it baby, Come on, Brenden - YAY Brenden" ROFL!

and I'll add in this - "my fiance this, and my fiance that" and "no camel comes between me and MY man!"

oh man...but I'll watch - should be good for the comedic value LOL

the full cast list is out!

Other than Rachel/Brendon, it's a pretty standard cast- some interesting pairs I think..

In the picture I saw of Rachel rappelling down the condominium tower in Hawaii, (which is the "end city") she had her long hair - thus leading me to believe she does not shave her head.

In a picture taken of Rachel and Brenden at the airport on their way to Rachel's family's house a couple of days after the race ended, she was sporting long hair

Very interesting!

And weren't they lucky to meet Pamy :-)

And Brendon's hair doesn't appear to have been shaved at any time recently either.

This next leg was on December 14. RFF has some pictures showing her later but she has a helmet on so you cannot really tell about hair.. but Brendon's hair doesn't see shaven and they have fan pic where she does have hair (or a wig) around Christmas time.

So probably she didn't shave her head. Vanessa probably wouldn't either.. Dave/Rachel and Art/JJ cannot do another FF so that would leave Mopper if they could get to the FF in time to pass another team.

Seamonkey, that is the picture I was talking about that I saw right after filming ended. The "end city" was just a few days before Christmas.

I recognize Brendon and Rachel. Who are the other two in the picture? Are they our fellow posters? I'd love to put faces to names. Thanks.

Auntiemike, they were just fans in the airport when Brenchel was heading to North Carolina for Christmas after the race was over.

In BB 12 Brendon shaved his head and was voted out in the next round. I wouldn't do it. Wouldn't want to be bald and eliminated.

It's possible Rachel debated shaving her head, another team came ( Vanessa and Ralph ?)and they made a deal to take a penalty and then continue racing. Kind of liek what Boston Rob did with the meat eating task in Argentina . Just a theory.

Is there a penalty for not taking a FF? I thought teams just went and did the regular stuff -

No penalty for not taking a FF.
