Win a 2GH Pentium 4 computer! - The Amazing Race Contest

[Danny R]

Just in case some here don't regularly visit the contest forum, I'll make this one time annoucement here.

The Amazing Race begins next week on July 6th, 9:30 E/P

To supplement the show, I am running a contest for the duration of the series.

Visit the Contest forum for details, but the top prize is a 2GHz (perhaps better) Pentium 4 computer.

Questions for the first week were posted last night. Getting your answers in early may help with your score, but isn't required.

'Amazing Race' Returns with More Global Thrills

While previous editions of the Race got off to a fairly genial, even slightly goofy start, this fifth round feels strikingly different, as injuries and hard feelings surface almost right from the Southern California starting line.

"This is by far the most cutthroat season I have seen in terms of how people have played the game, because the teams have worked out where the equalizers are -- airports, say, where the teams tend to stack up -- so they know when they really need to push," says Phil Keoghan, returning for his fifth stint as host.

"This particular season really has an edge to it in terms of the teams we have chosen. They're edgy, engaging characters, contrasting teams that rub one another the wrong way from time to time. We don't look to create a 'perfect holiday' atmosphere, and the players that come into the game now are just much more charged-up and competitive from watching previous seasons."
