Amazing Race combined with Eco Challenge
Ok, I know they have two different producers/creators, etc. but I think it would be neat to have someone like Nathan (New Zealand's captain in the last Eco Challenge) on the Amazing Race. He is an incredible racer!

Animal Treatment
The animal abuse exhibited in the most recent show was heartbreaking. Chickens stuffed into mesh bags and run around, baby goats strapped tightly into baskets and driven around on bikes, some with items piled on top of them. Disgusting. The contestents are so hell bent on winning that they had no regard for the wellbeing of the poor animals. Have a heart and leave the animals out of the show.

Easier filming
I find it hard to follow 11+ teams on one show. How about splitting the teams until they are down to 8 or less. Six teams start one week, six teams the next. All other rules are the same. After they are at a more manageable size, link them up. Filming could actually be totally separate. Film one leg and then the other. Or have fewer teams. You must finish last twice to be eliminated. This could save CBS a lot and help keep the Race on the air.
And absolutely allow more diversity in travel choices. If you are leaving Galway, Ireland at Midnight, this only gets you to a closed airport in Shannon. No lead at all. You would have plenty of time to drive to Dublin and catch an earlier flight. Beat the competition to Amsterdam by 3 hours. In Europe, don’t just fly. Drive, hire a car or take the bullet train. Maybe allow the teams to split. The teams must still check in together, but a Roadblock could be completed by the team member that gets there first. A Detour? Too bad. You have to wait for the other member to show up.
I don’t know why I am so worried about CBS’ money but here is another suggestion.
There is the on-going Asian Race. I would also have to believe that some other country would want a race. The UK or Canada, ect. Run all three races at about the same time. The Asians leave on Monday, the other country on Wednesday and the Americans on Friday. Again I think that it would be cheaper for CBS to film. And the logistics for the race are huge. Share the venues, cut the costs. They could show the other races on the Game Show network and sell us the DVDs.
Also, I am surprised that they don’t usually travel West. Traveling is tougher on the body going East with all of the time changes. Don’t forget the sound and camera people. The breaks are probably longer at some sites than they let us know. Filming is 30 to 40 days. Fine with me. Let the racers and the crew have some time in a another part of the World.

fans don't want any more models/actors team on the show?
why do fans say that they don't any models/ actors team on the show?
i think models and actors are real people and they are famous in other shows and the producer are happy everyony can be famous. real people join others show like rob and amber whose were both take part in survior before amazing race

FOUR PERSON TEAM
Could Season 14 be with a four person team---not necessarily a family edition. I think that would be awesome!!

I hope The Amazing Race Producers would promote good values
I enjoy watching the Amazing Race on TV but I don't like to watch same sex couples on the show. I hope CBS would promote good values and produce programs that are suitable for the whole family.

Lets get some funny people next time..remember the clowns?
I really enjoy the show and liked all three pairs in the end. But so many pairs now are just pretty people, usually who argue too much. I miss the hippies, and the clowns. I felt this season was boring compared to other seasons. I'd like to see more real people,
I also liked the sppedbump this season. A breakaway from away taking all the money.

phrase of 'tasks by hand'
this phrase doesn't mean do with hands. it meant the challenging of the task that teams have to complete the tasks and do not quit detour/ roadblock

Race Improvements
I think the Race should have something called a "Fork in the Road". At that point EACH team member would have to complete a separate task and if either or both failed, there would be a time penalty to make them wait till they could continue.

Race improvements.
There should be a rule called; UPLOAD. This will be placed before a roadblock, the teams that uses the upload will be helping another team.
For example, Mary & Jane uses the upload on James & Peter, M & J must also specifically indicate which team they want J & P to ''help'' complete the roadblock. If M & J wants J & P to complete the roadblock for Nick & Sarah, they must do so. This means that either James or Peter have to do the roadblock for Nick & Sarah too, they will have to complete the roadbloack 2 times before getting their next clue. Nick & Sarah can skip the roadblock and proceed on with their next task. Mary & Jane have just uploaded more stress on James & Peter. :D
Well, thats my idea...might be a little confusing, but if you read hard enough, you will definitely understand. :D

STOP PANDERING TO HISPANICS-ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS
Don't pull a SURVIVOR 13, where CBS completely stacked the field with over-qualified Hispanics, in an attempt to draw in the Hispanic audience. It was disgusting as to how they put a young; thin, athletic; swimmer; arrogant; Hispanic and then set up every single challenge to cater to his abilities. Ozzy was an anchor baby, and CBS did everything in their power to make him win. It was disgusting when they awarded him a car and money at the end--as the best strategist!!! Give me a break. I will watch TAR, but I WILL BOYCOTT EVERY SINGLE ADVERTISEMENT if they continue with this pandering to illegal immigrants and stacking the field with younger; athletic; Hispanics. Whatever is advertised, I will purposely go out of my way to use their opposition. Sorry, Travelocity....

Take out the U-turn!
I really do not enjoy this new U-turn twist. Having to complete one extra task basically guarentees that you are finishing in last place. The only way that this may work is by making the Roadblock near impossible (like eating four pounds of meat on Leg 3 of season 7), or making it a non-elimination leg.
However, I do enjoy the airport "equalizer." Although some see it as unfair, I think it gives the Racers a real take on traveling. It would be more unfair to let the first team leave immediately after arriving at the airport (unless an immediate flight existed for Colin & Christie on Leg 5 of Season 5). this would put them hours ahead, making the race for first really boring.

U-Turn / Speedbump
I love these two new twists and think they will make the show better than it already is.
