Well Season 18 is another "All-Stars" season- but only from Seasons 12-17 (though none from Season 13). Filming started Saturday 11/20.

-For the first time, the Race started at night (in LA)- probably because they want to take advantage of the filming in HD.

-The first destination- Sydney, Australia

-The teams had 2 flights out of LA- one for 3 teams, one for the other 8. However, the producers forced the first three teams to take a later connection for their flight because of a ton of mechanical problems with the second flight; otherwise they would have had an 8-hour advantage over the 2nd flight.

-The first leg is a "To Be Continued" uber-leg..

The rumored cast is:

Gary & Mallory (6th place, S17)
Amanda & Kris (8th place, S14)
Kisha & Jen (4th place, S14)
Zev & Justin (9th place, S15)
Flight Time & Big Easy (4th place, S15)
Jaime & Cara (2nd place, S14)
Margie & Luke (3rd place, S14)
Ronald & Christina (2nd place, S12)
Mel & Mike (6th place, S14)
Kynt & Vyxsin (5th place, S12)
Jet & Cord (2nd place, S16)

Stand up and get crunk...

I actually like most of the teams with the exception of Jaime/Cara (can't remember which one was the ugly American), and Margie and Luke.

I can't remember Jaime/Cara but do remember liking Zev & Justin. Were they the team with Aspergers? Flight Time/Big Easy...fun! Looks like a good cast.

Jamie was the ugly one Lexie- she's also the one who posed for Playboy this year. They apparently wanted both of them but Cara turned them down- she thought it would hurt her career as a lawyer...

Thanks Wilson.

Gurliegirl, Jaime and Cara were the really attractive redheads (but like we stated above, one was a really "ugly American). I can't remember whether it was Zev or Justin that had Aspergers, but I liked both of them. I remember the one with Aspergers was the "duck whisperer."

... and I'm still not happy about Margie and Luke.

Oh boy, am I conflicted! Loved Flight Time and Big Easy and adored the cowboys! I actually hope folks will cut Margie and Luke more slack this time -

I think the thinking was Margie/Luke took care of the mother/son combo (thus taking out Toni/Dallas), and the only other team that was somewhat memorable from that season to me was Nick/Starr- and they didn't want winners from previous seasons on this time around. Plus you don't know who was asked but turned them down.

However, notice that 6 of the 11 teams were 2nd, 3rd, or 4th in their respective seasons...so it's a very strong cast racing-wise (and even the team that did the worst- Zev and Justin- only ended up 9th because of an unfortunate situation; they actually had checked in 1st the leg they got eliminated in, only to find out Zev's passport had gotten lost, and they couldn't find it in time to re-check in)

Wilson - Please forgive me for being an accountability freak, but Zeb's passport had not "gotten lost." Their team had lost it -

Well considering they had such high hopes, or they were the only ones they could get....



..The first three teams eliminated are all Season 14 teams. Amanda/Kris, Mel/Mike, and Jamie/Cara in that order- Kynt and Vyxsin got saved by a NEL in China (this is after they came from Japan). Jamie and Cara were actually leading in the leg they were eliminated in, but ended up last by over an hour (they may have had a tough time at the Roadblock).

Well filming is just about finished on "Unfinished Business", if not finished (since they like to end on weekends). The last elimination point is believed to be in Brazil. The last sightings of teams according to RFF was at F5, and are believed to be:

Kynt & Vyxsin, Ronald & Christina, Flight Time & Big Easy, Jet & Cord, and Gary & Mallory (which I would have no problem with at all)..

Love the F5. I kept saying "Cool!" after reading each one. That says it will be a fun season for me at least.

Well, it's a pretty interesting split- 2 runner's up, a 4th, a 5th, and a 6th....2 from S12, 1 from S15, 1 from S16, and 1 from S17.

One other thing- Brooke and Claire were asked, and were going to do it but just a couple of days before they were to leave for the start Claire found out she was pregnant...so it looks like one of the teams was a last minute replacement..My guess? Gary/Mallory..
