Racers were given seven seconds to look at a board. On the board were seven symbols. Before we continue, however, a little history is necessary. A re-match was in the making. But let us not forget the 1999 Nationals, Team Balance Bar again loses a five-minute lead, this time to Team BMC Software, for the title.
History has an odd way of repeating itself.
In a twist of fate, Team Exide would miss one item and be forced to repeat Slippery Mountain and the Kimms game before crossing the line. Team FogDog would pass through the tests and the Kimms game unscathed to take 4th. All-female team, Team Heineken capped its reign on the podium with its fourth 1st place finish this season. Team Out of Control continued its round of 2nd place finishes while Team Pure Estrogen took 3rd. Never Surrender finished 3rd.
