User:Pikalin38/Fictional Ben and Toad's Contest 6

Ben and Toad's Contest Season 6 will start on February 6, 2015. There will be 84 contestants (42 men and 42 women) chosen because of the 2015 Women's World Cup in Canada, and the Pan American Games in Toronto, Ontario, also in Canada. So many sports events are going on in 2014: 2014 Summer Youth Olympics in Nanjing, China, the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the 2014 Under-20 Women's World Cup in Canada, and the 2014 Under-17 Women's World Cup in Costa Rica.

During Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix Race 2 where the entire season 1 cast won, they announced that there should be at least one contestant from the following countries: Brazil, Netherlands, Germany, Argentina, France, Italy, Colombia, Ecuador, Chile, and Uruguay.

The last four was originally scheduled to be announced on Mid-Ohio qualifications, but the Germans can't pass the first round. The last four contestants were announced on 29 August, after the MAVTV 500 qualifications, in which Germany from season 1 won the pole. The last four were determined to be Son Yeon-Jae, Mesut Ozil, Ahn Jong-Hwan and Olga Vilukhina. The votes for the last would be in three options: Vilukhina, Ahn, Son, Suarez; Vilukhina, Ilyukhina, Suarez, Ozil; or Vilukhina, Ahn, Son and Ozil. The winner was Vilukhina, Ahn, Son and Ozil by 51 votes, the same number of points Power has over Germany heading to Fontana.

Adrienne Bailon and Nick Lachey were both announced as contestants directly after the MAVTV 500. Additionally two contestants on season 1 received points. However they were both penalized for a pit entry violation; as all of season 1 would lose 50 points.

This season is extended to 30 weeks from 20 weeks due to a green-white-checker finish in season 4 week 19 on the NASCAR Nationwide Race of Gardner Denver. The number of contestants will also extend to 60 contestants from 40 contestants due to the Firestone 550 extending the race to 600 kilometers, and also a green-white-checker finish in Subway Firecracker 250. The number of season contestants was extended again from 60 to 80, due to a 13th professional for season 19; and another green-white checker finish, bringing it up to 80. Due to another green-white-checker finish at Atlanta Speedway, it will be 84 contestants. The 84 contestants will double it's number as 42 from season 1.

This season will run for 30 weeks starting on February 6, and will end in late August, just like last year. Due to the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup in Canada, it is expected to end the same month as last year.

All contestants who are participating in this season would have to be born before January 1, 2000 in their place of birth. The juniors is required they need to be born before January 1, 2002. Chloe Kim was too young for the filming for this season; as her birth is around January to July.

The Dancing with the Stars season 19 cast are expected to be announced after the closing ceremony of the Brazil 2014 World Cup, the 2014 IndyCar MAVTV World Championships race in California on August 30 and the 2014 FIFA Under-20 Women's World Cup in Canada.

On July 27, 2014, Maksim Chmerkovskiy announced he will leave BATC after the sixth season. Another new professional dancer will replace him. Slovakia will make it's debut on the show and will replace the Luis Suarez, Uruguay.

Description
Season 6 will be one of the longest seasons, with 31 weeks extended by 1 due to a green-white checker finish in Oral-B USA 500. Paraguay will not appear on DWTS for the first time since season 4. Paraguay is also absent from BATC after Michael Waltrip was announced as a DWTS celebrity. The Indianapolis 500 before the 2014 FIFA World Cup was a thriller, seeing the finish between season 1's Germany and the United States; so the United States defeated Germany by 0.600. Germany went with a 13-5 record, while the other teams from the first four seasons, were all behind the Germans. A lot of major upsets happened in Fontana. They were all normally after lap 220.

Season 5 saw the opening of the Asian Games in Incheon, South Korea. The Dan Wheldon Memorial Go-Karting challenge on September 20 saw the teams of 🇪🇸, not ; and is the second time this has been taken on a BATC week, after season 3 week 6. Countries that are not participating include 🇩🇪. The Sprint Cup Series' Sylvania 300 was extended due to a green-white checker finish in one of the first five weeks, one of the times this happened. The first week looked pretty much like the last week of season 4 in Fontana, expect Alena Zavarzina deserved a drive-through for pit entry violation. Had Germany finish in the top 10 at Fontana, Italy should have failed to move on to the next round; and Croatia moved on instead. The only winner that isn't returning back is Jennifer Lopez, season 2, because of the Brazil rules for seasons 4 and 5. Despite stunning the Germans, the Colombians managed to finish outside the top 10 most of the time.

The Carrera de Estrellas in season 5 will see Italy for the first time; after missing the 2013 edition in which season 1 champs Germany won. Among the teams participating include all 32 qualified teams at the 2014 World Cup, and the 24 that qualified for the 2015 World Cup. But if season 3's Italy wins, Germany will be absent from the Daytona 500 in season 6. The earliest perfect scores also came in BATC season 5 week 3, and DWTS in season 19, after two celebrities danced their Jazz in week 3. This was also one of the earliest seasons to achieve this, along with 5 and 8. There has been rumors announcing that either Tony Kanaan or Germany would both leave IndyCar for either Brazilian stock cars or NASCAR; and Germany leave Team Penske for a different racing team (everyone wanted Germany to leave Penske).

In season 5 week 3, the Korean short track teams were announced. Unseeded Iran upset Germany in the Arm Melter qualifying. Park Seung-Hi was moved to long track.
