Here's some feedback from a previous Race/LA participant - who also participated in The Amazing Race on CBS.
"If you are an Amazing Race fan, this day was one of the most entertaining, most dynamic, most creative adventures I got to have. It was just like a leg of the Amazing Race - and more!"
Race/LA Overview
Read the complete Rules and FAQ here.
LENGTH OF THE RACE is around 5 hours, beginning at 9:00am.
COST $275 per team of two.
TRAVEL is by car, on foot, and occasionally by other methods. Race/LA may occur anywhere within the greater Los Angeles area (LA and/or Orange Counties), usually covering between 25-45 driving miles from start to finish. Players will not know in advance exactly where they will be traveling.
CLUES are in sealed envelopes at each location, and may be photographs, hints, puzzles, specific directions or some combination of these. Teams often have to perform a certain task or challenge before receiving their next clue.
ONE WAY clues contain a task that only one member of each team will perform.
INTERSECTION clues give teams a choice of two different tasks, with different advantages and disadvantages to each.
MERGE clues force two teams to temporarily team up to complete a task together.
FASTLANE cards allow teams to skip one location.
SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS Race/LA is a physically active event. Players should be in reasonably good physical shape, although you definintely do not need to be an athlete. Teams should be able to think and act quickly, and work well together.
MONITORS are an integral part of Race/LA, and often have as much fun as players. Monitors are stationed at locations throughout the race.
