The Pinks: I'm sorry to see them go... I liked them.
Tk and Rachael are my favorites.
Father and Daughter duo: The father is a complete idiot.
Gramps and Grandson.. he didn't look good at all in that cab... yikes.
He seemed to perk up at the finish line.
Nick and his chick: She's a complete bitch and he's just a idiot. Two peas in the pod.

Well, K and V have only themselves to blame. Sure, they didn't know who was behind them, but they had to figure that Nate and Jen would U-Turn them. It was just a stupid move.
Considering the sleep deprivation, the weird travel hours, and the fact that Don is 70 years old, it's pretty impressive that Nick and Don are still in the race. If I were them I'd still be pissed that I had to get a tattoo on a non-elimination leg. What kind of BS is that?
I'll be happy if TK and Rachel, Nick and Don, or Christina wins (as long as she dumps Ron in the bay before she gets to the finish line).

Wow.. Kynt had some really stupid logic going there regarding who to U-Turn.
At least Ron acknowledges he's being an ass. But it doesn't excuse him. Christina takes too much time trying to correct him politely tho.

i'm going to miss "the dating goths" Kynt would crack me up when he talked, he talked like a super hero. I hope grandpa and grandson win, grandpa didn't look good in the cab.

I was really sad to see them go, but happy that TK & Rachel are still in it.

I am going to miss both of them. And Kynt too.
I would have much rather the the bickering couple (they deserve each other) or the crazy Asian dad (nobody deserves him) be gone.
Happy for TK and Rachel.

I thought that speed bump was pretty lame. If they're going to introduce a brand new aspect to the game, they should have made it more challenging for the racers and more exciting for the viewers than a yoga lesson.
I had thought in the past that at the Yields (now U-turns) there was some way of knowing which teams were ahead of you--like they removed their picture from the box or something. But apparently not since the goths didn't appear to know.
Nate and Jennifer are fun to watch because they stress out so much. I actually respect Jennifer somewhat. She comes across as bitchy, but it is because she is ultra-competitive and so she freaks out when her team is doing poorly. Maybe not the best way to handle things, but I understand it because I know people just like her and they are pleasant enough most of the time. And she's not timid about taking the challenges on. Nate, on the other hand, seems to revert to the mentality of an 8-year-old whenever the pressure is on.
I keep rooting for Christina (and Ronald), but I can see them imploding soon because of Ronald's stubborness. His insistance on arguing with the judge at their poster detour was really, really stupid.

That Yoga thing could have been a disaster if someone like the Grandfather or Ronald had to do it. It just so happens that the youngsters got to do it and it went well.

ha ha, that was great! "he keeps changing his mind!" Rather than just shut up and plow through, he wastes time arguing.

Pulling for TK & Rachel as well. You could really see how happy they were to win that vacation in St. Martin.
I really don't think Gramps and the kid will make it. I wish Christina could win, but Ron is such a dick. Nate & Jennifer are easily the most annoying team left. I really hope they screw up somewhere along the way.

Sad that Kynt and Vyxsin are eliminated from the race. I really don't undertand the logic in Kynt yielding Nicholas and Donald. I would've yielded Nathan and Jennifer, because at least I knew for sure that they were behind me.
I hope Nicholas and Donald win the race.
I don't think Ronald will ever be nice to his daughter.
