I'm not sure where to post this so feel free to move it if you wish peach!

Seven also promised a ‘bigger’ race, with contestants travelling more than 65,000km over 4 continents. Two new twists will also enter the game- Must Vote U-Turns and the controversial Salvage Pass, which will shake up the first leg of the race.

I'm not sure how reliable this info is though, this website is the only place I've seen anything about these twists.

Not sure what these twists are going to be, but I am excited that TARAus is creating twists of its own that are unique from other versions! :hearts:

Love the Must Vote U-Turns, hope it's true! :jam:

If the Salvage Pass is real, could it have something to do with voiding a Race power used on you? :duno:

controversial Salvage Pass, which will shake up the first leg of the race.

If the Salvage Pass will 'shake up the first leg of the race', I speculate that maybe it is a prize awarded to the first team to complete some sort of Starting Line Task... otherwise it's hard to see how it will shake up the FIRST leg if it is not awarded at a Starting Line Task... :duno:

I think the season will go like this:

Leg 1: Sydney to Manila, Philippines: NEL
Leg 2: Manila to Legazpi City, Philippines: Kym & Donna eliminated
Leg 3: Philippines to Dehli, India: Adam & Dane eliminated
Leg 4: Dehli to Dubai, UAE: Sue & Teresa eliminated
Leg 5: Dubai to Istanbul, Turkey: Ross & Tarryn eliminated
Leg 6: Istanbul to Paris, France: either NEL or Geoff/Sticky & Sam eliminated
Leg 7: Paris to Havana, Cuba: either NEL or Geoff/Sticky & Sam eliminated
Leg 8: Havana to Vancouver, Canada: James & Sarah eliminated
Leg 9: Vancouver to Banff, Canada: Shane & Andrew eliminated
Leg 10: Banff to Beijing, China: NEL
Leg 11: Somewhere in China?: Michelle & Jo eliminated
Leg 12: China to Fraser Island, Queensland: I really hope either Joseph & Grace or Emilia & Lucy win over Steve & Paul if they are my predicted F3. Although of course the top 5 are interchangeable.

Hey,

I have not seen the Israel version, can someone explain me how does the u-turn vote work? does that mean that there is a u-turn in every leg?

That looks right to me supah3ro. :tup:

In TARIsrael2 teams had to vote on the team they wanted to be U-turned, regardless of the team's position (ie, teams could vote to U-turn a team ahead of them). The team with the most votes was U-turned. The Israeli version had the voting U-turn/yield in the majority of its first 10 legs, we don't know if TARAus2 will do the same.

Oh thanks Peach, well then the first India leg could potentially be a NEL but I think in the 2nd leg either Adam & Dane or Sue & Teresa will be eliminated, maybe with the aid of a u-turn.

Here's a link to a picture I found on Flickr in smileybrisbane's photostream. I'd post it but the photo has all rights reserved, so I can't save a copy of it. If anyone else knows how to do that, please post it here.

http://www.flickr.com/photos/8774875@N07/7101575405/in/photostream

It was labelled "Amazing_Race_Australia-301675" so it came up in my search. However,it was mixed in with a lot of photos of models in swimsuits, so it seems kind of an odd place for it. If these two in the picture are in TAR Aus 2, they can only be the two blondes, Michelle and Jo, climbing out of a boat, but in the photo they don't look like platinum blondes. One of their backpacks clearly has the red and yellow striped tag from the Amazing Race, so it appears genuine. It also has a watermark in the lower right corner that says "7ma". I'm guessing it's the logo for the 7 network and it's part of the promotional stuff they have released lately. It could also be from TAR Aus 1, but I don't know that cast, so I can't say.

As for the location, it's obviously not from the kayaking task in Vancouver, as it's far too cold there in December for bikinis. The background looks tropical with a white sandy beach and a radio tower in the distance. Could it be from Australia or the Philippines? The tasks in the timeline don't seem to match up. It could be from Havana too.

Thanks for pointing out who that was. I knew there something wrong about that picture, but couldn't figure it out.

That's 30 minutes I'll never get back, but at least the photo was easy on the eyes.  :inocent:

oh my god. i just watched James and Sarah's video.  :lol:

WHY in the world would you wear HEELS on the amazing race?!!?!

my bad, they're HUNNERS.

ALSO:

we know the starting line is next to the open air cinema @ the botanical gardens
and from the promo, it seems as though teams have to run ON FOOT from the STARTING LINE to Sydney Ports Marine Services on BARANGAROO where the first challenge is -
the challenge involves getting their car out of a maze of cars or something

from all our promos and live sighting spoilers, it looks as though all teams are safe through the Philippines (leg 1), so yet again our first leg will be the first NEL
the following teams have NOT been seen AFTER India:

Kym and Donna
Adam and Dane
Sue and Teresa

also from promos it seems as though we will have TWO legs in India

^And Sue & Teresa are confirmed to at least make it to India, which means one of the other two is our first boot in the Philippines. (Didn't we have two legs spoiled there?)

most of us speculated it was two, but IMO i think its just 1 leg in the philippines (route info in manila, then transport to legazpi) and then 2nd and 3rd leg in India, but I could be wrong.. :/

This is my boot list spec so far:

Leg 1 (Australia - Philippines) NEL
Leg 2 (Philippines - India) Kym and Donna EL
Leg 3 (India) Adam and Dane EL
Leg 4 (India - United Arab Emiates)
Leg 5 (United Arab Emirates - Turkey)
Leg 6 (Turkey - France)
Leg 7 (France)
Leg 8 (France - Cuba) 
Leg 9 (Cuba - Canada) James and Sarah EL
Leg 10 (Canada)
Leg 11 (Canada - China)
Leg 12 (China - Australia)
