SIGN UPS FOR BUSES TO DAEGU:

[Mooyou]

ALL TEAMS ARE NOW ON THEIR WAY TO DAEGU, SOUTH KOREA. ONCE THEY STOP AT THE DAEGU BUS STATION... TEAMS WILL RECEIVE THEIR NEXT CLUE...

[Mooyou]

This is the first Roundabout of the racecourse. In this specific spot, one team can make another team perform the speed bump other than the speed bumped team. Teams may only use their Roundabout powers once during the entire race, so they need to think if they will use it or not.


This is how the Roundabout will work:

POST: *We choose to ROUNDABOUT (TEAM)* or *We choose not to ROUNDABOUT!*

The Roundabout will be TIME BASED. Even if teams from the second or third bus decides to roundabout and posts first, but a team from the first bus uses the roundabout, the roundabout that I will consider will be the ones used by the first bus, first team and so on...

NOTE:

• Jane and Rachel may NOT be roundabouted, nor can use the Roundabout.
  
• I'm giving Collin and Zach and Sam and Liz another chance, so they must deduct 20,000 KRW for it, however there will be another 1 HOUR PENALTY awaiting for them during the pit stop for not completing the other tasks.
  
• ONE TEAM WILL BE ELIMINATED THIS LEG.
