The Amazing Race - Family Edition

The Amazing Race 8 is the eighth installment of the reality television show The Amazing Race.

The Race returned to the original teams of two adults for The Amazing Race 9. Filming ran from July 7, 2005 to July 31, 2005. The show premiered on Tuesday, September 27, 2005 and concluded on December 13, 2005.
