Amazing Race Game Rules

Each player selects FOUR teams to run for them.  Once you have selected your teams, you are committed to them until they are eliminated.  If one of your teams is eliminated from the race, you have the option to select a replacement team to bring your team roster back up to three.  EACH replacement team will cost 5 points and will be deducted from your point total.
