Calvin's Amazing Race 3

Calvin's Amazing Race - Season 3: Strangers Edition; or simply Calvin's Amazing Race 3 is the third installment of Calvin's Amazing Race. It featured an "all-newbie" cast of 26 individuals grouped into 13 teams of two. Each team is comprised of two individuals with no prior relationship.

Casting
Casting period was the longest for this season, with applications opened on February 2021, and the live cast reveal done on June 2, 2021. This season also had the largest number of applicants, with over 40 people having rejected applications.

Dominix and Deserters were part of the original cast, however Deserters quit due to being too busy, and Dominix quit due to one member leaving Discord for personal reasons. This lead to the eventual 5th and 3rd place teams being cast last minute as alternates: Plastique Fantastique and Cress-Eyed Pugs.
