It's an Indonesian in which that twitter account user lives in Indonesia and I do believe that he's talking about The Amazing Race Asia 4 and the race has just started and probably the 1st leg for that reality show is somewhere in his country. Just a speculation. :duno:

[name] missing hubby already, hes doing the Amazing Race for next 3weeks
Quote
[name] Pete is running around filming the show while they are in the southern hemisphere - literally running. Hes gone for 3weeks with the smallest little backpack I have ever seen! 10 hours ago
Just checking her profile, she works in Australia, so it's a fair bet to say he was one of the local help (or at least, not one of the permanent crew). The fun thing is that TAR: US probably isn't going to Australia (since it's during US summer and due to the Word of God Peach :lol:) but could it be that it's for TARA? 3 weeks to keep him if necessary, Southern Hemisphere antics (since TARA really doesn't care about the temperature), and though we might be starting tomorrow, Australia could easily be the second/third leg.
eta - Southern Hemisphere might mean places in addition to Australia ie NZ, Java, and Bali in Indonesia.

Have re-asked was this only crew? or crew+cast? ???
Two possibilities:
The race started in KL and everyone moved on to Penang.
OR
They all stayed in KL but were moving to Penang for the first leg....
Malaysia Airlines: flight 1140: From (KUL) Kuala Lumpur, MY to (PEN) Penang, MY scheduled dep 1035am arr 1125am
I go for the 1st one. As they checked out around 5 am. May be for the starting.

The only airline that flies from Oman to Bangladesh nonstop is Biman Bangladesh Airlines. If it was our race, after the leg in St Petersburg, there would be at lease a leg or two in the MiddleEast. Jordan, Qatar, and Bahrain are the only safe MiddleEast countries remaining that have not been visited other than being an airport layover stop.

I think that is not our race. The poster is from Vancouver BC and its too early for the race to be in Canada if they were just possibly spotted in Muscat a day ago. This could be TAR Latin America or a local version. :duno:

I found this while looking through blogs for information about the American TAR. This appears to be TARA and matches the other info here.
I can't copy the text, but the blogger said she was at Penang new futsal court in Gelugor to be an audience and cheer while the TARA teams completed their task. She said they waited for hours for the teams to arrive from KL (Kuala Lumpur I presume). There's a couple of pictures but I don't think they will reveal much.

Penang new futsal court in gelugor, yeah i was there that day. Nearly the whole day. 9am i was already there with ...& others. Yeah, suprisingly most of the chs youth were there. I was in deep shocked too as i thought i was the only one with school friends(: We waited, waited, and waited for at least 3 hours.
Three hours doing nothing but talk. We was waiting for the amazing race asia's participant to reach from kl Okay, why were we there? Our job is to cheer & be the spectators while the participants play their task. 10 teams altogether & yes, it'll be on air soon enough. See us there? :) We was given macdee set as our lunch, shirt & sorts of props to be noisy If you were wondering, we are paid too.
ohwell, it ended at about 4pm and i support team dotdotdot!
Facebook : Just got on the plane. The crew of The Amazing Race Asia is on board I think. Recognize the host. Yesterday at 9:31am via Mobile Web
She said that she didn't see any team so that mean this is the flight for Allan , while the team were in different flight.

The profile of the girl says that she is from Australia, and the Melbourne's Luna Park is the oldest in existence according to wikipedia, but still there's another one in Sidney...
Don't know anything else.... It could be TAR17 or TARA or nothing at all

I found another sighting on Twitter (posted about 2 hours ago):
Wah! Amazing race shoot in sapi island..find the flag hurry....!
In response to someone asking if it was TARA, they posted:
yeah.. I believe its amazing race asia ...bleh tahan they all ni..
I tried google translating the last phrase (apparently Malaysian) and got "bleh hold THEY all ni .." which doesn't mean much to me.
I found a web site (http://www.mysabah.com/sapi/ (http://www.mysabah.com/sapi/)) that described Sapi Island this way:
"Sapi Island is just a 15-minute boat ride away from Kota Kinabalu. It is famous for its calm crystal clear water, which is an excellent choice for snorkelling and diving."
From the pictures, it looks like it would be a good place to dive for a flag or perhaps dig for one on the beach.

Since TARA has just been to Hong Kong last season ,I think it's TAR.
not necessarily, though. according to wiki they went to singapore both season 1 & 2.
I don't surprise they visit singapore twice since it's a country.Hong Kong is a city where they has visited twice already,I don't think they will choose it for three times continuous ,if they want to go to china,they may choose Beijing or Shanghai.

Found these tweets and think they are for TARA.
The first one is from a woman that lists Kuala Lumpur as her location. She says she's at the airport (doesn't say which one). Looking over the last 2 weeks or so of tweets, she doesn't mention travelling, so I'm guessing this is the Kuala Lumpur airport. It was written 2 to 3 hours ago.
Amazing race people are just zipping about the airport. I'm tempted to trip them.
The second one was from a woman in Malaysia (no more specific location given) and was written about an hour ago. It was in English, though most of her other tweets are in Japanese. It doesn't help us much since it says very little.
Amazing race came!!

Adding this in here;
Our friend who posted about seeing the teams at the Filipino Night Market in KK has sent this along:
And :thankyou: your English is great!!

firstly i want to apologise if u cant understanf my words, bcause my english is not so good. ok?
venue: filipino market, located in kota kinabalu, sabah, malaysia. time: 12june, about 5pm until 4 am(next day)
actually i'm a worker in the market. i did saw 7 teams before i leave the market. the 7th team that managed to arrive is about 1.30am.
their task is to eat 200 chicken meatballs. the first team that managed to arrive is malaysian team. but i'm just guessing bcause 1 of the team member looks like a malay and his name is hairie. and the other 1 is a chinese guy.
i do not know where they are from before arrive at the market. and where are they were heading to after completing the task because i already leave the market at 2am.
he has also sent a detailed list of the teams he saw, which I will post shortly in the contestant thread!!
Thank you "meatball man" !! :hearts:

Seems like Allan was on a flight to SINGAPORE from KK. Not sure if it's a transit for him or if that's where the next leg is to be run.
My fren just got back from KK this morning and I asked if he saw any of the TARA folks. He didn't see any of the teams but was on the same flight as Allan (KK -> SG) and met him when they were checking in luggage. He didn't even know if Allan was filming TARA :lol:

Beruwela is on the South Western Cost of Sri Lanka. It marks the spot for the first Muslim settlement on the island.
So they are still in Sri Lanka after more than 1 day. Either its 2 legs in Sri Lanka or its an extended pitstop ??? (depends on time of posting) Can someone get the time of the post.

The Amazing Race Asia dashes through Legazpi. Coming Soon!
That was posted on a Legazpi tourism FB page, I think
This blurb about TARA 4 was also attached to the FB update:
The Amazing Race Asia Asia’s most highly anticipated and long-awaited multi-continental race has made its return. AXN brings back its biggest Original Production success, The Amazing Race Asia (TARA)! Last season (Season 3) was billed as the toughest race ever, where endurance was the name... of the game. Expect no less from the new and sleek Season 4, which will up the intellect ante with the most sophisticated demands on top of the already tough challenges the race will impose on contestants. This season’s race will repeat its sheer excitement and intense moments of adrenaline rush as 10 teams of two dash across countries and oceans to areas they would never imagine having to go to. If one thinks the race is all about being sent to cities around the globe, this season will definitely bring new meaning to ‘off-the-beaten-tracks’ and ‘exotic spots’. As with past seasons, competing teams can expect to win impressive pit-stop prizes and the first team to land their feet past the finishing line shall bring home the grand prize of US$100,000.

The Amazing Race stops by Invercargill
Quote
The Amazing Race stopped by the deep south over the weekend with competitors and camera crews seen filming in Invercargill.
Teams of two were spotted running through the airport after disembarking flights from Christchurch at 3.30pm and 4.20pm yesterday.
At least four Maui campervans were seen in the parking lot of Invercargill’s airport as well with the yellow and black striped Amazing Race envelopes in their windscreens.
Details are scarce but all people are saying they saw teams of two being filmed as they ran out of the airport and into the campervans before taking off up State Highway 6.
Hosted by kiwi Phil Keoghan, The Amazing Race has stopped by New Zealand several times in the past with the last being an Auckland-based stopover.

A gazillion twitters repeating this, and this:
The Amazing Race hits Invercargill By CASSANDRA POKONEY - The Southland Times Last updated 05:00 21/06/2010
Emmy-award-winning show The Amazing Race passed through Invercargill yesterday, understood to be filming for the next instalment of the global phenomenon.
While people on the ground refused to confirm the show's presence, at least four Maui campervans with yellow and black Amazing Race envelopes on their windscreens were parked at the Invercargill Airport yesterday afternoon.
Camera crew were also seen filming teams of two as they exited flights from Christchurch, the first about 3.30pm, and the second at 4.20pm.
The people were filmed running from the airport building and around the carpark before climbing into the campervans and leaving the airport.
One crew member said they were filming a travel show.
The campervans left Invercargill on State Highway 6.
It is unknown which version of the show was filming in Invercargill.

The person lists their location as Invercargill, New Zealand. So if that tweet is legit, I guess all the sightings in New Zealand being posted on FB and Twitter is indeed TARA.

As the one of the air line people said they had been coming in all dae. I knew it was the amazing race, because i watch the show. and i was in arrowtown earlier that day and a resturant owner told me that the amazing race was being filmed here, but i didnt c anyting, and then wen i got to the airport later on, i saw them.

'Amazing Race' rushes through By Tracey Roxburgh on Wed, 23 Jun 2010
The Amazing Race moved through Arrowtown yesterday morning before heading to Queenstown Airport yesterday afternoon. While no-one will confirm it is the popular television show, the Otago Daily Times understands Destination Queenstown and Lakes Property Management had been involved in the seeking of permission for filming, including inside the historic post office in Arrowtown and along Buckingham St between 9am and noon yesterday.
It is also understood participants had to try to kick a rugby ball through goal posts at the Queenstown Events Centre on Monday, before heading to Coronet Peak.
Yesterday, the ODT saw two teams of two people entering the post office, camera crews in tow, and leaving moments later.
One of the teams, comprising two women, asked for directions to a travel agent.
One woman mentioned going to Australia.
About 1.40pm yesterday, another team with two cameramen was spotted in central Queenstown.
Lakes Property Services managing director Joanne Conroy said the company granted permits for filming around the district, and only one permit was active at the moment.
She said that request for filming had come from Destination Queenstown and was understood to be part of its international media programme.

Here's a new picture of the teams on Coronet Peak.
According to a Mountain Scene source, the show was down to eight teams when it hit the Wakatipu – they arrived in six-berth campervans on Sunday for a wood-sawing competition in Kingston. On Monday their first challenge was finding snow transceivers buried at Coronet Peak Ski Area. Teams then tore to Gibbston, where they had a choice between AJ Hackett’s extreme Nevis Highwire bungy or Arc swing. Their challenge last Monday was to kick a goal between rugby posts at the Events Centre. On hand were two All Blacks, Ben Smith and Jamie Mackintosh, and a local schoolboy rugby team. The teams, who stayed at Crowne Plaza, started Tuesday by returning to Coronet Peak for a slalom challenge on the Kaser Ski Carpet. Mountain Scene understands only one of the teams had been on skis before. From Coronet Peak the teams swung through Arrowtown, where they wrote a letter and posted it at the historic post office. For their last local challenge they went back to Gibbston, where they had a choice of herding sheep or rolling a wine barrel at Brennan Wines. The teams flew out to Sydney on Tuesday afternoon.

Hmmmm....don't think so? On Tuesday they still had 6 teams in it....maybe an extended pitstop? They should still have longer otherwise this is the first 16 day race.
More info on NZ from someone who knows...
Quote
...they had to pick up campervans @ QT airport and get their next clue from QT events centre. On Monday they did something at coronet peak and then had a goal kicking/rugby challenge with some All Blacks and children before finishing up with a pitstop. Unsure if this was an elimination stop but 6 teams started Tuesday, they had to do a sheep mustering challenge and something else, then post a letter at the post office to get their next clue to head to the airport and onto Sydney. ...I believe there was only a 30min gap between all the teams arrivals in Sydney) .Once they arrived at Sydney they had to find Circular Quay & find a man with a brolly for their next clue, thats as far as I know...
1st team was a couple of American (i think) dudes, the chicks in 2nd, a well spoken Asian couple was 3rd, only caught a glimpse of 4th & 5th but last place was two Asian girls who seemed to be struggling and didn't seem to be great with English. I also know the team that came into town 5th had some troubles, drove the wrong way down the main street, got stuck panic'd etc and ended up trying to do a u-turn on the main street and had to get help from a local to get the campervan off the main street, so they were penalized for allowing someone else to drive their car as well as for breaking the law by driving down the main street so they would have been struggling to stay in it.

If you have any friends in Lombok ... please let them know to look for the route maker at any tourism site... if not mistaken there is one nice mountain trekking there

Our resident reality TV fan, Robyn, stumbled on the crew of a very well known reality TV show filming in our city streets this morning!
She stumbled on the crew and contestants of the USs The Amazing Race filming Season 17 in Dymocks bookstore on Albert Street! Shes taken some pictures of the contestants and crew looking for maps in the bookstore.
Stay tuned for the episodes on TV, who knows you might catch a glimpse of Robyn!

They of course have mistaken TARA 4 for TAR 17, but pictures!! :jumpy: Exif data (also thanks to Slowhatch! is June 24)
I just want to say, i think they'll really go to Lombok, Indonesia. Based on tweets above, I checked to her twitter account, and she said that she knew TARA will visit Lombok from her friends who worked for Indonesia's Ministry of Culture and Tourism..
For further info, i will always look forward to Indonesian's press here, and if i get some I'll tell you here :)
So, hopefully it was right...and sorry for my bad grammar :-[
Welcome to RFF pramararama... :hearts:
If you have any friends in Lombok ... please let them know to look for the route maker at any tourism site... if not mistaken there is one nice mountain trekking there
Jika kamu ada teman di Lombok ... Bisa beritahu teman kamu, cari "route maker" di tempat parawisata ..... seperti di tempat trekking gunung.
Unfortunately I don't have any friends in Lombok :'( I live in Jakarta. But I will try to keep looking on media and press here for one week ahead...
anyway i got new info from twitter:
Amazing Race Asia lagi filming di Jakarta, spoiler dari Pinoys ada yg liat bendera di airport about 2 hours ago via Mobile Tweete
means, amazing race is now filming in Jakarta. Pinoys spoiled that he/she saw the flag in the airport.. if that true, i'll try my best to 'catch' them :lol:

It's an Indonesian in which that twitter account user lives in Indonesia and I do believe that he's talking about The Amazing Race Asia 4 and the race has just started and probably the 1st leg for that reality show is somewhere in his country. Just a speculation. :duno:
I am Indonesian citizen, I'm just confirming what stated in the article, I thought it was not for The Amazing Race Asia 4, it might show race that made their own, thank you! :lol: :lol:

yes, i got that tweet too. well, i've asked to him. he said that, he was in gili trawangan, riding a Cidomo (cart pulled by a horse or something like that). and he saw 3 teams were riding Cidomo too, race to the pitstop. (end zone means pit stop - i think-). And the pitstop was in the east of island, it's still around Gili Trawangan...
that's all i got :duno:

unfortunately he didn't describe the three teams..he got a very bad short term memory :(
and i also got tweets that cabio has mentioned on previous page. there are 2 possibilities: they had a leg in Jakarta, or else they made Jakarta as a transit city. If they had a leg in Jakarta, Kemang (South Jakarta) will be one of several route markers that appear in the race (maybe)
anyway, I've been around south Jakarta today, but i got nothing. sorry ;)

I saw the crew at New Zealand on the 20th June at the Nevis Bungy/Arc site. Allan was probably doing the recording for the task intros.
There was a u-turn sign there! I took a photo with it quickly before the crew realized it and hid it away hahahaha.
21st June was when I saw a team running to the Kawarau Bridge bungy; wrong place! Sad.
Was so lucky to have TARA sightings when I was on holiday, lol

And can you describe the team you saw??
Title: Re: TARA 4 SPOILERS and sightings
Post by: Thunderbolt on June 27, 2010, 04:10:49 AM
All right here goes... but it wasn't really clear though. And don't mind me being inside the photo hahahahaha
They took it out to prepare or something like that. And Allan Wu was there preparing to film the introductions to the Nevis site over the grassy areas behind.
Took this secret shot thanks to my friend. They kept it after realizing there was a crazy fan (aka me) around lol.
Darn wish I was on this race, I would have done the Nevis free of charge. It's expensive, whew!
Couldn't exactly make out how the team that I saw (on the next day) running looked like as I was on my tour bus already when they ran out of their campervan.

Hey there, it was in New Zealand as I've mentioned earlier. it's at the Nevis bungy/ Arc site, they appeared right after I did my jump.
And yes that's a U-turn sign. Wasn't exactly set up properly as the teams weren't supposed to be there yet I think?Assuming that since Allan was there.
And yes semi-frozen-cocoa, U-turn signs do appear on top of the 'cluebox' no? Instead of having clues inside it would be the pictures of the teams for other teams to stick on the board to U turn, no?

P.S. It was the Queenstown AJ Hackett Bungy Jump right?
Title: Re: TARA 4 SPOILERS and sightings
Post by: cabioTAR on June 27, 2010, 07:48:56 AM
You saw someone running to the old bungy bridge?? What did they look like?
Quote
There are many wineries around Queenstown, however currently the two biggest are Gibbston Valley Winery and Chard Farm. Both situated near the old Kawarau Bridge where AJ Hackett Bungy operate their original jump site.
Gibbstown Valley is New Zealand's leading wine tourism experience , featuring an award winning winery, picturesque vineyard restaurant and wine cave complex.
Situated just 20 minutes from Queenstown (1 km past the A.J. Hackett Bungy Bridge) they are the most visited winery in New Zealand (they welcome more than 150,000 visitors each year).

Post by: Thunderbolt on June 27, 2010, 11:17:44 AM
Yea that's the one. Wish I could have done it or the Arc for free with Amazing Race Asia. Darn! hahahaha.
And yes I saw the team parking at Kawarau bungy site and running into the building as I was leaving the area. This was the campervan that there were driving around with in New Zealand if I'm not mistaken?
But anyway I didn't get to see their faces, but was a male+female team I think. Either one was wearing a neon green jacket if my memory doesn't fail me.
Allan Wu with the winner from Season 1 who then joined the production team. (Was it Joe Jer or Zabrina i think?), and the next one was with the production team. Sorry for the blur photos as I approached them and they said we couldn't take any photos, so i zoomed to the max from a far far away place where they couldn't see me lol. Then again the photos turned out to be quite useless, sigh.
Oh yes, now that you've reminded me, Gibbstown is the super famous vineyard for the South Island in NZ that was mentioned in my tour. Passed by it but didn't see anything over there. Now that name rings a bell haha

Hmmm, I think he's talking about the sukiyaki beef in Osaka and that city is one of the most expensive cities in the world besides Tokyo. Probably they're now racing in Osaka/Kansai region. Japan, here we go again! :hearts: :keeta:

@ CarbioTAR:
Yes I confirmed it was her, don't have to guess. Just that I couldn't remember if her name was Zabrina or Joe Jer. Season 1 happened long ago, lol.
Me and my friends approached them to request to take photos together though, but got denied sadly. I told them the only reason why I was doing the Nevis was because they did that there in Season 1, haha!

I was quite shocked. 7 / 11 kemang is only approximately 6 km from my house. they actually get there? Kemang is one of the places visited to Fast Forward in season one. Location kemang similar to the structure of existing roads on the island of Bali.

what a shame. I will go to Singapore until December 8th july later. whether perhaps there is hope they race in singapore? I will be faithful witnesses lol.
calm, I will ask the officers 7 / 11, but after the date of July 8 later.
7 / 11 in Jakarta is becoming a trend for young people. because of the drink called Slurpee. so I thought maybe they were doing Fast Forward to sell or maybe drinking the Slurpee.

More Australia:
06/22/2010 22:16:12 Subject: Amazing Race 17: Coming to Australia?
My sister spotted a flag this morning at a set of lights near where we live. We're fans of the show and she planned a Amazing Race challange for my 21st, so the flag caught her attention and made us wonder what was going on. We followed the markers and signs to a property out the back of Maudsland on the Gold Coast. There were street signs put in for a place that we've never heard of and know aren't normally there. They've gone to a lot of trouble to replicate our road signs.
Just wondering if anyone has heard if the Race is coming back to Australia or if some clever person is just using the same sort of flags for a party or business.

can anyone get a picture shots from the intro of TARA 4? All I could see and remember on both places, animals and people (besides 10 teams) are:
1. A jumbo jet airplane 2. 2 or 3 monkeys 3. Sky Tower in Auckland, NZ 4. A church 5. A beach house 6. An underwater aquarium with soccer net 7. Sydney Opera House 8. Mt. Fuji in Japan [?] 9. A Maori guy from New Zealand 10. A Chinese Temple

states that Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam will be visited on the race.
I think it's not TARA really, it's a Hilton Hotel's Amazing Race thingy.

Hmmm...I don't think that is exactly what it says?
The way I am reading it...the VIEWERS game will feature those countries. ABut it certainly does overlap in at least several of our known locations, and we don't have every location.
Wow, racers staying in Hilton's is a major switch from last season's hardest race ever!! :ascared
SINGAPORE & MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hilton Hotels & Resorts, the flagship brand of Hilton Worldwide, is set for a whirlwind tour around Asia this October as it joins forces with the Asian edition of the Emmy award-winning reality competition series – The Amazing Race Asia, which is produced by and aired on AXN, the leading English general entertainment channel in Asia. In line with its ‘Stay Hilton, Go Everywhere’ global marketing campaign, Hilton is the first international hotel brand to partner with the programme which is in its fourth season.
Starting September 23, more than 13 Hilton hotels and resorts in the Asia Pacific region will be featured throughout The Amazing Race Asia (TARA) Season Four in various aspects. Viewers catching the action from home will also be able to join in the race with a first-of-its-kind viewers contest through the location-based social networking website, Foursquare, co-sponsored by Hilton Hotels & Resorts.
“The unique format of participants racing across the world in The Amazing Race Asia is the perfect fit for our ‘Stay Hilton, Go Everywhere’ campaign. It helps showcase our wide range of hotels and resorts in the region and also sends a strong message that Hilton makes the world accessible through its global offerings,” said Dave Horton, global head, Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand.
In this year’s race across Asia, contestants will be faced with Hilton-specific challenges where they find themselves subjected to the same demanding hospitality standards the brand maintains as a stylish, forward-thinking global industry leader. Racers who check-in first on certain legs will also walk away with well-deserved dream Hilton holiday packages. Throughout the filming period, racers and production teams were all treated with warm hospitality at Hilton properties to catch up on their rest in between gruelling challenges.
Ten episodes of the show will feature a unique ‘Check-in and Win’ contest for viewers. A ‘pit stop’ in a designated Hilton property will be revealed at the end of each programme and the first five viewers to check-in using Foursquare between 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. during the following seven days will win a host of Hilton prizes including room nights and dining vouchers. These viewers’ pit-stops are located at Hilton properties across the region including Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Thailand and Vietnam.
“For decades Hilton has been connected with popular entertainment around the world. Our innovative approach to engaging customers through entertainment partnerships is demonstrated in our co-sponsorship of the ‘Check-in and Win’ Foursquare contest, which is a first for Hilton and The Amazing Race Asia. It conveys the stylish, contemporary and upbeat energy of our service and hospitality, and we’re confident that the response from viewers will be very encouraging,” said Andrew Flack, vice president, global brand marketing, Hilton Hotels & Resorts brand.

Great job Banzai!! I am nabbing some caps now too if you want them...and look what was hidden in the Intro!! :jumpy: :jumpy:
they went through arrowtown. i saw an indonesian couple come in at about 2pm. they were coming into queenstown and were off to sydney. I think they flew direct at 4.20pm. then about 20mins later these 2 arab looking gurls came in. i think these two teams were in last and 2nd to last. As the one of the air line people said they had been coming in all dae. I knew it was the amazing race, because i watch the show. and i was in arrowtown earlier that day and a resturant owner told me that the amazing race was being filmed here, but i didnt c anyting, and then wen i got to the airport later on, i saw them. No picture sorry hope this helps
this could be.. Hussein and Natasha and Sunaina and Dimple.. and they were the last 2 team there..so i guess H/N is on 6th place and S/D is 7th place .. so either H/N or S/D will be eliminated on this leg... anyway, this is just my thought :duno: :)
1st team was a couple of American (i think) dudes, the chicks in 2nd, a well spoken Asian couple was 3rd, only caught a glimpse of 4th & 5th but last place was two Asian girls who seemed to be struggling and didn't seem to be great with English. I also know the team that came into town 5th had some troubles, drove the wrong way down the main street, got stuck panic'd etc and ended up trying to do a u-turn on the main street and had to get help from a local to get the campervan off the main street, so they were penalized for allowing someone else to drive their car as well as for breaking the law by driving down the main street so they would have been struggling to stay in it.
ok, i'm goin to interprete this one.. :)
1st team: richard and richard 2nd team: jess and lani (?) 3rd team: alan and wendy (?) 4th team: ????? 5th team: ????? 6th team (last place): claire and michelle (?)
it is so hard to interprete this one :lol: i assume that this one is the next leg from my another thought above...and now it's already 6 teams left i think it will be a non-elimination round :)

Post by: GreenNegg on September 19, 2010, 05:49:00 AM
the first three team that will be eliminated are..... *Yani & Nadine *Ivan & Hilda *Manas & Sahil
THE F7 TEAMS ARE: *Richard & Richard *Jess & Lani *Ethan & Khairie *Alan & Wendy *Claire & Michelle *Sunaina & Dimple *Hussein & Natasha
then..... Hussein & Natasha will be eliminated....
Am I right??????
If this is true, then the 6th team is most probably Sunaina & Dimple. Just saying :duno:

Ok. Based on our spoilers, only 7 teams remain during the New Zealand Leg, which means:
Leg 1 - Malaysia: NEL Leg 2 - Malaysia: EL Leg 3 - Sri Lanka: EL Leg 4 - Philippines: EL Leg 5 - New Zealand: ? Leg 6 - Australia: ?
Three teams are eliminated before the New Zealand Leg. Seven teams remain racing for the NZ Leg.
These six teams are SURE to be racing in Leg 5: :yes: Richard and Richard - seen at the Philippine airport :yes: Ethan and Khairie - seen at the Philippine airport, and in Australia :yes: Ivan and Hilda - seen at the Philippine airport :yes: Jess and Lani - seen at the Philippine airport, and at the NZ news articles :yes: Hussein and Natasha - seen at the Philippine airport :yes: Dimple and Sunaina - seen at the Philippine airport
If Claire and Michelle are the girls in the Australian picture with Ethan and Khairie, then Alan and Wendy might be eliminated on Leg 2, 3, or 4.
Furthermore, the airport counter lady (franz_manu) did not see Claire and Michelle there at the counter, but she knows they are still in the race (and she feels they even lasted long). This means our first three teams to be eliminated are:
:yes: Yani and Nadine :yes: Sahil and Manas :yes: Alan and Wendy
DISCLAIMER: This list is prone to errors, though.

I think it's Sunanina & Dimples..?
At this point, which teams are still in the race?
*found the timeline*
if it was Sunaina and Dimple, the informant would say "two indian girls".. i mean, Asian is for chineese-look-a-like and Sunaina/Dimple's face are clearly and absolutely Indian.. :duno:

I am still puzzling a little over this Intro cap map...There is not much time to get to some of these places...and some are wrong. They flew through Christchurch, not Auckland...
We have no rvidence that they went to Istanbul, or LA, but Jakarta and Tokyo are very possible.
Title: Re: TARA 4 SPOILERS and sightings
Post by: Mrs Shrek on September 23, 2010, 06:28:11 PM
From my perspective, and off the top of my head: Sydney is a definite. Auckland unlikely. I believe all teams flew in from Singapore via Christchurch. Only possibility is if the team that got ahead of the others on the next leg flew from Queenstown to Sydney via Auckland instead of Christchurch. Jakarta is very likely, at least to pass thru the airport, not sure if there were any tasks or an actual leg here. Bangkok is a possible alternative transit airport to Singapore when flying in and out of Sri Lanka, but no evidence or time to have a leg there, at least not before we lost sight of them at the end. Istanbul, like Los Angeles, no evidence, but a leg is *possible* in one or the other, (but unlikely time/distance wise in both) after we lost sight of them at the end. Tokyo, some evidence from Allen's tweet about the cost of living in Japan that they *may* have visited Japan, but we don't know the actual city. Los Angeles, like Istanbul, no evidence, but a leg is *possible* in one or the other, (but unlikely time/distance wise in both) after we lost sight of them at the end.

Let's remember that this is an issue which has been with us throughout all seasons of Amazing Race Asia. McKay always puts misleading places on the big map so that he can misdirect the audience. All we see for ARA4 is that he has repeated this again.

Post by: Jobby on October 15, 2010, 11:55:44 PM
Okay, we're in Leg 5 next week and we still have 8 teams. If Claire and Michelle are spotted in Australia, that makes them surviving Leg 5 and 6 to go to Leg 7 in Australia?
TARA 1 BY LEG 7 - 6 TEAMS REMAINING TARA 2 BY LEG 7 - 6 TEAMS REMAINING TARA 3 BY LEG 7 - 5 TEAMS REMAINING
Something else to note: Leg 7 for all 3 past seasons have all been NEL. With 2 NELs on the first 4 legs and if they're doing only 11 legs, then i think there's only ONE MORE NEL.
That could mean elimination all the way to the FINAL 4/5 because all 3 past seasons had at least 1 NEL at the FINAL 4/5.
Leg 5 - The Philippines (FINAL 8) ELIMINATION?
Leg 6 - New Zealand (FINAL 7?) SAFE: Ethan and Khairie and Claire and Michelle ELIMINATION?
Leg 7 - Australia (FINAL 6?) SAFE: Ethan and Khairie and Claire and Michelle ELIMINATION?
If the theory is right, then the malaysian boys and the Singapore girls are in the final 6 with four other teams in Australia... with Leg 7 most probably being an ELIMINATION leg as well. But you really never know. It seems like they really like NEL on Leg 7. :lol:

Post by: Jobby on October 16, 2010, 01:12:03 AM
Okay, i take a look and i guess you're right!
Leg 5 - The Philippines (FINAL 8!) SAFE: Ethan and Khairie and Claire and Michelle ELIMINATION
Leg 6 - New Zealand 1 (FINAL 7) SAFE: Ethan and Khairie and Claire and Michelle NEL? (Unless they decided to put the NEL at Leg 9)
** Assuming i'm right that Leg 6 is a NEL.
Leg 7 - New Zealand 2 (FINAL 7) SAFE: Ethan and Khairie and Claire and Michelle ELIMINATION
Leg 8 - Australia (FINAL 6) ELIMINATION
Leg 9 in past seasons only had 4/5 teams remaining, and since they won't possibly put a NEL on Leg 8 for teams to travel from a country far away from another, Leg 8 will be an Elimination leg, most probably.. with Leg 6 being the last NEL since there are 2 New Zealand legs?
I'm also thinking that they're following the TAR format for the past few seasons and did a 12 legs race, so there could possibly be another NEL, which totally makes sense because traditionally they will have one at the Final 4/5.
Leg 9 - Indonesia 1 (FINAL 5) NEL
Leg 10 - Indonesia 2? (FINAL 5) ELIMINATION
Leg 11 - Japan (FINAL 4) ELIMINATION
FINALE - UNKNOWN (FINAL 3)
I think this makes much more sense to have 4 NELs than 3 because if they only had 3, the producers won't waste 2 on the first 4 legs. Just my speculation.

With 2 NELs on the first 4 legs and if they're doing only 11 legs, then i think there's only ONE MORE NEL.
Joab, I believe you are off by one NEL. there will be 4. Here's why:
after leg 4, 7 teams remaining after leg 5, 6 teams remaining after leg 6, 5 teams remaining after leg 7 (assuming you are correct about where a NEL will be; it doesn't matter) 5 teams remaining after leg 8 4 teams remaining after leg 9 3 teams remaining
To start leg 11 with exactly 3 teams remaining, you have to have a fourth NEL.

apskip? Are you sure? That after Leg 4 now.. we have 7 teams remaining? :lol:
And did you finish my entire post? I did say that they would most probably have a 12 legs race with 4 NELs.
But you're definitely wrong. Because there are only TEN teams in TARA and we're on Leg 4 now and we have EIGHT and not SEVEN teams remaining.

Oh dear, then most probably we will have a Final 7 NEL in Leg 6?, which is like weird.. if it doesn't happen that way, then it will be the Final 4/5 already, which means it's elimination all the way for the next 4 legs till Indonesia. And if it's indeed NEL all the way to the Australia leg, then Michelle and Claire and Ethan and Khairie will be in the Final 5, where if one more team is eliminated on the Australia leg, only the final 4 will make it to Indonesia. Which means the Indonesia leg will definitely be a NEL.

I guess theres no NEL for a while. There's already 2 NEL's on the first 3 Legs. And it's too soon for a NEL again. I'm kinda hoping that TARA's NEL make use of SpeedBumps...
From the looks on the preview... Claire & Michelle are struglling on a Pinata task.. Ivan & Hilda (I guess, if not the riches) are struggling also in the pig catching task :duno: :duno:

Leg 9 - Indonesia (FINAL 5/4?) NEL?
Leg 10 - Japan (FINAL 4) ELIMINATION

Honestly, i think the NEL should be at the Final 5.. but it could be at the Final 4 too. :tup: So the NEL should be on LEG 8 ORRRRRR LEG 9.

Joab, I wanna share my idea too :lol: Anyway this is only my opinion..by looking at the timeline and facts from earlier posts in this thread.. Feel free to critcize me if i’m wrong :) :)
Leg 7 – New Zealand to Australia (Final 6) I think it’s gonna be NEL.. I can’t tell you why, i just had that feeling :D and we have Hussein-Natasha and Sunaina-Dimple in bottom 2, based on this fact:
Quote
i saw an indonesian couple come in at about 2pm. they were coming into queenstown and were off to sydney. I think they flew direct at 4.20pm. then about 20mins later these 2 arab looking gurls came in. i think these two teams were in last and 2nd to last. As the one of the air line people said they had been coming in all day
Well, if this leg was Elimination Leg, I predict Sunaina-Dimple will be eliminated on this leg. Because based on this fact
Quote
“Btw,pas td di bandara ngeliat syuting The Amazing Race Asia & kontestannya asal Indonesia. Jadi kangen & pgn ikut Amazing Race jadinya T.T” about 2 hours ago via Twitter for Blackberry
Translation: BTW, I was on the airport, saw Amazing Race is filming and saw contestant from Indonesia. I really missed TAR and really want to join TAR T.T"
If he/she really saw Indonesian team in Jakarta Airport, so Hussein-Natasha are successfully passed Leg 7 until Leg 8 (Australia) and they’re racing for Leg 9 (Lombok, Indonesia). If not... they may failed in Leg 7 or 8.
Leg 8 - Australia (FINAL 6/5) If leg 7 was NEL, so Leg 8 will be elimination leg. Or else, If Leg 7 was elimination, so Leg 8 will be NEL (same with your thought, Joab :) )
Leg 9 - Indonesia (FINAL 5/4) Could be NEL , but Possibly Elimination Leg
Leg 10 - Japan (FINAL 4) Possibly Elimination Leg
FINALE - UNKNOWN (FINAL 3)
I think it’s kinda weird that we’re gonna have only 11 legs in this season.. The placement of NEL is kinda weird too. They really wasted the NEL when they’re put it on Final 9.. Oh well, I’m still hoping Allan was wrong and we will have 12 legs in this season :D

It's all just pure speculation and nobody is right or wrong! Feel free to share your ideas! Just that i thought TARA will definitely have a NEL at the Final 5 or 4 so as not to make the next 3 episodes damn obvious for the racers that it's an elimination leg... just my 2 cents!
Continue sharing your theories! :jumpy: :hearts:

Here is my theory
Leg 7 Final 6 ELIMINATION
LEG8 Final 5 ELIMINATION
LEG9 Final 4 NEL
LEG10 Final4 ELIMINATION
Either Leg9 or Leg10 is a NEL. Past Seasons did this so... :duno:
Did Allan really said that there is only 11 Legs?

By seeing the last episode, I think we need to re-assemble our speculation, Joab :lol: Here's mine:
Leg 7 – New Zealand and Australia **DOUBLE-LEG** (FINAL 6) It's the first (and only?) virtual pitstop in the entire race.. Well, it really makes sense why they make this season into 11 legs, with actually they will have 12 pitstops with 1 virtual pitstop (cmiiw)
Well, the next episode is surely Elimination Leg, and I still predict Sunaina-Dimple will be eliminated on this leg. Still, based on this fact

If he/she really saw Indonesian team in Jakarta Airport, so Hussein-Natasha are successfully passed Leg 7 until Leg 8 (Australia) and they’re racing for Leg 9 (Lombok, Indonesia).
Leg 8 - Indonesia (FINAL 5) Possibly Elimination Leg
Leg 9 - Japan (FINAL 4) Possibly NEL
Leg 10 - UNIDENTIFIED LOCATION (FINAL 4) Surely Elimination Leg
FINALE - UNKNOWN (FINAL 3)
Well, feel free to share your thoughts too! :tup:

Hello guys, just joining in with the speculation:
Episode 8 = Leg 7B (Australia) - Elimination (down to 5 teams) Episode 9 = Leg 8 (Australia --> Indonesia) - Elimination (down to 4 teams) Episode 10 = Leg 9 (Indonesia/Japan) - Non-Elimination (4 teams) Episode 11 = Leg 10 (Japan) - Elimination (down to 3 teams) Episode 12 = Leg 11 (Japan --> Malaysia again?) - Finale
