And we're off!!!

Surprised we are starting in Queensland but that's fantastic and I'm now way more excited for this season! I am in Qld too so very keen to follow them.

For a town with a tiny population, Winton has quite a lot of tourist attractions and activities. It is notably famous for having one of the largest collections of dinosaur fossil findings in Australia! I'm speculating that this would be a self-drive leg from Longreach (only 2 hrs by car)

Confirmed/speculated tasks in Winton

* Outback Dunny Derby outside Gregory Hotel - confirmed sightings of teams
* The Musical Fence Museum (potential task could involve bush orchestra) - filming sighted

* Waltzing Matilda Centre (very iconic Aussie song - would be surprised if ignored) - pure speculation

* Dinosaur Canyon Centre / Australian Age of Dinosaurs / Lark Quarry Dinosaur Trackways - pure speculation

Possible tasks in Longreach

* Qantas Founders' Museum (again, I would be shocked if ignored) - pure speculation

* Australian Stockman's Hall of Fame (iconic museum of outback pioneers)

We probably have 12 teams and the 12th place team was saved by a Salvage Pass. This could be Leg 2.

Yeah, it looks like it. It will be strange to have 12 teams still racing at leg 2, 11 teams at leg 3... Unless there is some double elimination twist, considering leg 1 was NEL because of Salvage Pass being used, we will have elimination after elimination with only 1 NEL remaining. I am here for it, tbh. But kind of scared how editing will look like with so many teams racing...

Au2 did a good job in editing delivering teams’ personality enough even for an episode with 10 teams racing

fossil-racer:
