Well, it's season 2, so there has to be a twist. Well, there's a main twist and there are smaller twists. We'll start with the small ones. Each even leg (except for the final leg) will include some type of "disadvantage." You will encounter most of these on the legs, like the real Amazing Race. Sometime during a leg, you will be given a sign/Google Forms instead of a clue. This sign will include the disadvantage, a description of a disadvantage, and the available slots. Unlike the U-Turn in the real race, you will not know who has placed the disadvantage on you until the end of the leg.

Here's what the disadvantages and what some do:
Yield - A team is forced to stop whatever they're doing and wait for 30 minutes.
Hazard
911
U-Turn - A team is forced to complete the other side of the detour.

There is also one special one:
Flight Delay - Everybody will vote for this on the leg prior to the leg this disadvantage is used on.

More will be revealed later on.

Onto the main twist of the season.

I WOULD LIKE TO OFFICIALLY WELCOME EVERYBODY TO

THE AMAZING RACE 2:

MUTINY.

Here's how a mutiny will work. After each odd numbered leg, you will have the chance to mutiny. To mutiny, you need to mail or Skype both hosts the phrase
"I WISH TO MUTINY."
You cannot mutiny twice in a row. That means that if you mutiny between legs 1 and 2, you can't mutiny between legs 3 and 4. Beware, it will be revealed if you decided to mutiny or not. There are certain scenarios when it comes to mutinies:
1 person mutinies - no change in teams
even number of people mutiny - new teams are randomly formed between the mutineers; left over partners randomly make new teams
odd number of people mutiny (>1) - no change in teams

This season, teams will be ever changing. Will you be faithful to your partner? Will they be faithful to you? We will see soon enough.

Lastly, there will be prizes awarded to the winners of each leg. As usual, the winners of the final leg get the grand prize: one gift each. However, there will be additional prizes for the other legs. Some will actually be useful, and others will just troll you. You'd better hope that luck is on your side! Enjoy your last few hours in America before you embark on your journey across the world.

Leg 1 is at 7 pm EST on Wednesday, March 21! (Tomorrow)
