The Rules! (haven't changed any since last time)

1. Please put the name of your choice for this week's bootee IN THE SUBJECT HEADING! This is really easy. Just erase the bit where it says "Re: TAR 9, Episode 1 … TAR Fans, It's Time to Vote!" and replace with your vote, i.e., Jonathan and Victoria. This makes it easier to tally votes quickly and accurately. Nicknames are tougher to tally unless they're REALLY obvious without actually reading your vote, so please save the nicknames for inside your post and only use their proper names in the subject header.

Please note that if there isn’t a team name in the subject heading, the vote will likely not be counted because it’s time-consuming to go through every post and count the vote in there.

2. If you feel there will be a Non-Elimination at the pit stop, put down "Non-Elimination -- Team (name)" in the subject header to tell us who you think will finish last.

3. Reply ONLY to this post! Curves on women are good. Curves on vote threads are bad. Don't even get me started on string theory.

EXCEPTION TO RULE 3! VOTE CHANGES!

If it just so happens that you want to change your vote for whatever reason, REPLY TO YOUR ORIGINAL POST! Your new post heading should read "VOTE CHANGE: Rob and Amber".

4. THIS IS NOT A DISCUSSION THREAD! There are plenty of places on the Spoilers/Speculation Forum to debate the merits of people's arguments. Let's keep it out of here, please. Feel free to explain the reasoning behind your vote, though.

5. Have fun!

LAST EDITED ON 09-29-06 AT 11:14 PM (EST)

Maybe I can make it 2 in a row!

I say they go from first to worst with Sarah's leaking hydrolic fluid finally being too much to overcome.

I think they are the ones.

I picked them last week and they didn't go. So I will try again. I know they won't last long.

So far they have the lowest average finish, and I really really really really really need them off my TV immediately.

Cashflow problems sink an otherwise good team.

I agree with dabo, money problems will end their game.

Even though I'd like to see Tom & Terry go, I'll fall for the preview foreshadowing, too.

They didn't do good in the first 2 legs.

I think they'll follow their cheerleading friends on holiday.

Please disappear from my TV after tonight's episode!

Their edit has been very poor.

I apologize if this is a double post. Having some computer problems.

Flipped a coin and their side came up over David & Mary.
