Rumors about the next Race are starting to trickle out. Not only will the next race be the first one shot and broadcast in HD, it will also be the second "All Star" version of the Amazing Race.

The last All Star race was season 11, so all of the next round's teams will be ones who have competed since season 12 (the current race is season 17, and the All Star race will be season 18).

This link has a list of teams who were spotted in Australia this week (shooting started last week, so it appears they were still on the first leg of the race because 11 teams were identified): http://vevmo.com/f70/amazing-race-18-spoilers-5420/

Spoiler!

Nick sucks. I hope there aren't any equalizers next week that will allow them to catch up.

I hope the other 3 teams are the final 3.

well dumb and dumber (Nick and Vicki) decide to opt out of the last leg because they were too tired and didnt want to finish...and Phil kept them in on a non-elimination leg. They will start with a 6 hour penalty for quitting plus at least 2-3 hours behind the others. The only way they can make that up is if all the teams get bunched at the airport again...I hope not.

Once again it goes to show, ###### bags with facial piercings and sleeve tattoos aren't that tough. This guys been whining and bitching since day one. At least Vicki is pushing hard.

If I was in a race for a bunch of money, and my partner lay down and growned whats the point, the show's name would be changed to the amazing murder.

No #####!! What did he think this show was about? A vacation LOL?
######s.

As soon as he started whining about how hungry he was, I was like why didn't your lazy but do the restaurant challenge.

Vicki might be dumb, but she's gutted it out.

Phil should have said, this was going to be a non elimination leg, but you guys sucked so long that we've decided that your out of here, and because your so useless we're not paying your airfare home.

then he should have made some gang symbols and yelled "Peace out dogs"

d_phaneuf · 11-29-2010, 11:13 AM

I detest Nick, I didn't like Vicki much this season but I felt bad for her there

I really like most of the people on the list for All stars next season as well, should be a good one

ClubFlames · 11-29-2010, 03:15 PM

Wouldn't it be epic if some miracle happened and Nick and Vicki ended up winning the race? haha

I felt bad for Vicki as well, she wanted to continue the challenge but Nick turned on the suck.

getbak · 12-05-2010, 11:09 PM

I've never been so glad to have my team eliminated. It was good to see Nick and Vicki miss the plane and be forced to wait an extra 9 hours, although, it obviously made the rest of the leg less interesting.

Only 1 man in the final 3 for the first time (2 was the previous low).

I've been rooting for Brook and Claire for a while, and I'd still like to see them win. Although, I don't dislike any of the final 3 teams.

CaptainCrunch · 12-06-2010, 10:40 AM

I couldn't keep my eyes off of whats her names cleavage, not only were they cute in pink, but BANANZA

The fact that they didn't pay attention and took a cab makes them double desirable. Dumb and BNANANAZA

d_phaneuf · 12-06-2010, 04:55 PM

ya first time in a few years I don't hate any of the final 3 teams

I think Brooke and Claire win

Cheese · 12-11-2010, 10:17 AM

sorry for being late to the party...away on biz all week.

getback and ClubFlames both eliminated and put out of their misery.

eddly and jkflames have Jill and Thomas left.
Aeneas has Nat and Kat
Regulator75 has Brook and Claire
and I have both Brook and Claire and Nat and Kat.

Cheese · 12-12-2010, 07:06 PM

well another Race is done....and the winner is....

well watch for yourself.

getbak · 12-12-2010, 10:30 PM

That was a pretty crappy final leg.

I assume that for safety reasons, they had to space out the bungy drops and helicopter rides so the teams weren't too close. Because of that, there really wasn't any chance for the other teams to catch up without someone screwing up -- like getting a cab driver who doesn't know the difference between GPS and Google.

Happy for the results, though.

ClubFlames · 12-12-2010, 11:40 PM

I got GPS!

getbak · 12-13-2010, 12:02 AM

GPS isn't a computer!

According to Google Maps, there are 5 Starbucks within 2 miles of the Rose Bowl. Have you ever gone into a Starbucks that didn't have a couple of d-bags on a laptop using the free Wi-Fi?

Instead, they go to a tv repair shop in the hood, and when that doesn't work, they just yell at random strangers.

Cheese · 12-13-2010, 07:25 AM

Nat and Kat win it all and really didnt seem to have any competition the last leg. Brook and Claire took second and Jill and Thomas farked up royally.

I win the Pool taking both 1st and 2nd place...thats a first for me.

CaptainCrunch · 12-13-2010, 08:27 AM

That last leg was way too easy, I don't know how exhausted the racer are at that point, but it makes for a mind numbing finale.

Nice preview of the next race, good to see that the cowboys are getting another shot.

d_phaneuf · 12-13-2010, 09:57 AM

ya I agree on it being a somewhat weak final leg, and the final road block is usually a lot harder than what they got with the pictures
