I'm Like Ricky Bobby
October 18

Last time, the Racers landed in Cambodia, where they had to monkey around to find their way. Zev & Justin were the first to arrive at the Pit Stop, but when they realize that they don't have their documents, they went from first to worst quickly, becoming the Race's next casualty. Now eight teams remain.

PIT STOP
WAT PHNOM
PHNOM PENH, CAMBODIA
1225 LOCAL TIME

After the customary waiting period, Sam & Dan are the first to depart with this clue...

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY TO DUBAI!

Fly to the Persian Gulf and find the world's tallest building, the Burj Dubai, where you will find your next clue.

You have $160 for this leg of the Race.

Flight Time & Big Easy decide to make a detour to the internet cafe, where they can figure out where the world's tallest building. Brian & Ericka... don't need no stinking internet cafe. Ericka knows exactly where she's going.

The teams, one by one, figure out that we're going to Dubai. Lance & Keri are the last to figure it out, and the site to book tickets is slow as molasses, so they're heading to the airport.

All of the teams are on the same flight, via Bangkok, to Dubai, on the Persian Gulf.

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Now to look for the Burj Dubai, where they will find a fountain that has a schedule, where the teams must sign up for a time to go up to the roof of the building.

1st GROUP (5:30)
Maria & Tiffany
Brian & Ericka
Sam & Dan
Meghan & Cheyne

2nd GROUP (5:45)
Mika & Canaan
Lance & Keri
Flight Time & Big Easy
Gary & Matt

Did we mention that Mika didn't like heights? Pay attention. This is relevant.

The next day, the teams make their way to the Burj Dubai, where they find this clue...

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DESERT!

Find the parking lot at the Dubai Mall and take one of the marked cars to the scorching Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, where you'll ride 4x4 vehicles to your next clue.

But that's not all, folks...

FAST FORWARD

MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE DUBAI AUTODROME!

This is the only Fast Forward in the entire Race. In order to claim it, make your way to the Dubai Autodrome. Then racing in an F3 open car, one of you must complete a lap in 45 seconds or less to receive your next clue.

Meghan & Cheyne decide to go for it.

The other teams decide to head for the desert... as soon as they can find their cars. Lance & Keri. Oh, there're the cars.

Meghan & Cheyne find the autodrome, where Cheyne takes the wheel. Can he beat the time before the others beat the heat in the Persian Gulf desert?

Brian & Ericka are the first at the clue box, standing like a pillar of hope in the desert.

ROADBLOCK

WHO THINKS THEY CAN BEAT THE DESERT HEAT?

Using a bag and camel, find water in an urn in a desert. Once you have found enough water for a thirsty Bedouin and his camels, he will give you your next clue.

Brian, Tiffany, and Dan head into the desert in search of water. Tiffany finds an urn... but it has no water. Brian, though, strikes gold.

Back in the autodrome, Cheyne starts racing. Final time... 40.62 seconds!

FAST FORWARD

YOU HAVE CLAIMED THE FAST FORWARD!

Congratulations on claiming the Fast Forward! Now make your way via Maserati directly to the Pit Stop, the amphitheatre at the Souk Madinat Jumeirah.

WARNING! The last team to check in MAY BE ELIMINATED!

Let's not forget the important bit... They're in a Maserati.

Back in the desert, Brian's the first to come back with water.

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY BACK TO THE CITY!

Make your way back into the city and find Ski Dubai, where you will find your next clue.

Dan's ladle is broken, so Tiffany offers up hers. Gary & Matt catch up with the rest of the pack.

Brian stops to tell Mika & Canaan where the Roadblock is.

Back at said Roadblock, Maria & Tiffany are heading out when their radiator busts and leaks all over the place. Per Race rules, a replacement vehicle will be given to them, but they will not be able to make up for this lost time.

Sam & Dan stay behind until Tiffany & Maria's replacement car arrives. Which it does. So we're on our way.

Back in the city, Meghan & Cheyne are about to head into...

PIT STOP
SOUK MADINAT JUMEIRAH
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

And Phil and the happy local are there to welcome them as Team #1! As the winners of this leg, they'll be on their way to Jamaica!

Back on the Race course, Lance & Keri finally arrive at the Roadblock, and Lance goes out into the desert.

Meanwhile, Brian & Ericka miss the interchange to Ski Dubai. Gary & Matt... don't.

DETOUR

BUILD A SNOWMAN or FIND A SNOWMAN?

BUILD A SNOWMAN: Carry enough snow to build a snowman outside. If they can finish making a snowman before the 130-degree heat turns it into melted slush, they'll receive their next clue.

FIND A SNOWMAN: Take a chairlift to the top of the mountain and sled down to mounds of snow. Then use the sled to search the mounds for tiny toy snowmen. Give it to a waiting polar bear to receive your next clue.

Gary & Matt decide to find the snowman. The rest of the leaders follow suit.

Meanwhile, Lance and Canaan are still stick in the desert. Well, Lance is. Canaan finally leaves as Mike drives 120... kilos an hour.

From camels to polar bears, the teams arrive in Ski Dubai, where they're looking for snowmen. Brian & Ericka are the first to find a snowman, and contrary to what the chyron says, it's them who are in second place.

ROUTE INFO

MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE PIT STOP!

Drive yourselves through the city to the Pit Stop, the amphitheatre at the Souk Madinat Jumeirah, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

WARNING! The last team to check in MAY BE ELIMINATED!

Maria & Tiffany decide to build... as do Gary & Matt. Meanwhile, Lance & Keri are... still lost.

PIT STOP
SOUK MADINAT JUMEIRAH
DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Brian & Ericka arrive at the Pit Stop in second, followed by Flight Time & Big Easy, who are the second to find a snowman. Gary & Matt are the first to finish with their desert snowman, taking 4th place. Sam & Dan finally find their snowmen and lock in 5th. Maria & Tiffany are the second to build their snowman for 6th.

That leaves Mika & Canaan and Lance & Keri. Who'll be the first to the mat? It was.... Mika & Canaan. That leaves Lance & Keri as the last team to arrive and the next team to head to Elimination Station.
