In Episode 9 the teams had an impossible time navigating their way through the streets of Bahrain. Team IndyCar passed Team Big Brother on their way to the next challenge, which included milking a camel. Next, teams had to race to the next pit stop, “The Tree of Life." Team IndyCar was the first to arrive, winning $7,500 each. Team Extreme finished next, followed by Team Yale and Team Big Brother.

The next morning the remaining teams each had to catch a flight to Thailand. With only four teams left, there was no room for mistakes! The Indy Car drivers were the first to receive their next clue, but all the teams were close. At the Detour, teams had a choice between taking height and weight measurements of elephants or catching 20 bullfrogs.

In Episode 10 Team IndyCar and Team Big Brother chose to fetch frogs while Team Yale and Team Extreme were measuring elephants. Team IndyCar questioned their decision to choose this task in the mud trenches.

Team Big Brother was the first team to complete this task, solely because of Cody. Team IndyCar were right behind. Measuring elephants turned out to be much more complicated. Eventually Team Extreme completed their measurements, followed by Team Yale. With the luck of having a better taxi driver, Team IndyCar launched themselves back into first place before the teams had to eat three scorpions and a frog while live scorpions crawl on their partner. Rossi was the first to eat the scorpions and Team Indy Car won for the second leg in a row, so Alex and Conor won a trip to Curacao.

This chart shows each teams ranking per leg according to their official check in at the Pit Stop. However, time penalties issued before the start of the next leg due to improperly performed tasks are not reflected here.
