It is a new twist will feature in this season.

It was dreamed up by the same people that think it's important to include professional entertainers as contestants (basketball players, poker players,
country singers). Apparent garbage truck drivers, lab scientists, merchant marines, glassblowers, housewives, and museum guides aren't real enough.

This might even beat the Intersection for worst twist ever.
I fucking hate this idea. |

I HATE Q list "celebrities".Last season it was only the teams with the actor-screenwriter and the cheerleader who kept me watching. The only bad thing about mactor teams is when they squeeze out casting slots from good potential other candidates, but there's no evidence that there are billions of amazing regular joes who applied (or that they would be picked anyway, based on how dull or obnoxious all the 'regular folk' teams last season were; it was like a reverse TAR4) |

At least there appears to be a challenge, not a footrace or something.

Production keeps trying to out do itself every season it seems. How can we make a twist shittier than the mid point elimination in TAR10? Let's eliminate
them at the start instead!

That video that Eugene identified has the contestants finding the "corect [license] plate that ..." what? match the getaway vehicles? match the
states where the race has begun/finished?
The losing team is the one that can't find the correct license plate (because previous 11 correct ones were found). |

That would suck. All that excitement of being recruited casted on TAR, and all you get to see is the Los
Angeles river bowl. You don't even get to go on a plane.

The license plate thing looks like a luck task (since there are so many plates and you have to find the correct plate).

And I agree, one of the first two legs should be a NEL! Well, I'm hoping that an uninteresting team OR boring at all......QUIT! at the starting line.... to help maintain the cast good and not boring as shit. |

At first, I really thought it's really stupid. But on the positive note, at least, we won't spend the first 20 minutes watching teams saying,
"OMG! I can't believe we're doing this!", "Pass them, pass them", blah, blah, blah...
It's gonna be pure excitement from the very start (I hope)... |
