The newest edition of The Race is set to begin on a new night - Friday, September 26th. Don't forget!
This is a low entry fee, moderate prize way of tracking 4 of your favorite teams as they criss-cross the globe. The entry fee is $5 via check, cash, Google Wallet or Paypal
Here's how it works:
- Each player picks four Amazing Race teams used to earn points.
- You must make certain that your picks are not the same as another players. This will help eliminate the chance of a tie. As you make submissions, I'll let you know if your choices are okay. The sooner you pick teams the more likely you are to get what you want.
- The pool player with the most points at the end of the race wins.
- Points will be handed out via bonuses throughout the season and based upon what happens in each episode.
