Trevor is Fiji-born not Aboriginal. He was in Celebrity Overhall and had a cameo in Summer Heights High too, so I guess he is still looking at potential TV gigs, not just living off his $1 million.

In the second picture, is the guy on the left the person seen at the surfing task? Not that that'd really do much good other than letting us know what his front and back look like.

A very helpful Tweeter from the Philippines has just posted a compilation video on Facebook of photos and videos of the teams at Manila Airport.

http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=2280790141737

According to her transcript, at least some teams travelled on a 6pm flight to Delhi. We also get a clear shot of one of the aboriginal racers and a 'gorgeous' couple!

According to her transcript, at least some teams travelled on a 6pm flight to Delhi. We also get a clear shot of one of the aboriginal racers and a 'gorgeous' couple!

I found some info that disclosed the location of the next leg after Vancouver and included a picture of a sign up list for travel arrangements for the teams. The name plates for the teams were mostly visible and it includes a partial list of names of the final 5 teams:

Emilia & ?
Joanne & Mic___?
Grace & Jo___?
Paul & Ste__?
Shane & An__?

I'll pass the info on to Peach and repost the information after the next leg is run, unless someone else finds it first, which is probable. I did have it up here for a couple of hours, but after reading about the Vancouver leg decided to take it down. It sounds like the Vancouver leg was a bit chaotic and that having fans around made them cancel at least part of what was planned. I don't want to see that happen again. I'd like to encourage them to make more visits to North America and if we make it a headache, they won't be back again soon.

Peach, your PM inbox is full. Check your email.

THIS.

And Plaidmoon, that was absolutely the right call. Vancouver was a security nightmare and at least one location appears to have been scrapped. So we all need to go back to basics, hold off on posting where any teams or production will be until right about the actual time when it is too late for  media/fan chaos.

I think that we can guess if names are long or not by how they are both written on the boards.
I mean Joanne starts near the edge, so Mic__ should be a fairly long name, well, compared to Emilia & L__

I'm speculating that there are two all female teams left since the small boards with J/M & E/L are pink & purple

For the names, I would guess Joanne & Michelle, Emilia & Lucy, Grace & Joseph, Paul & Steve and Shane & Andrew

Hard to say, but I think that for Emilia and L, the next letter seems to be either a 'U' or an 'O' in my opinion. Could be things such as Lucy, Lora and many other names!

For Joanna & Mic, I think the next letter starts with a vertical line, so it could definitely be a 'H', and Michelle and Michael are possible, but I don't think the beginning of the letter matches the shape of an 'A', so I would guess that it isn't Micah. I think it could also be a 'K', so something like Mickey, Mickayla (very weird spelling! :cmas17 ) or Michaela could be possible? :cmas5

This is just my speculation on those letters, but I could be off...

Combining some earlier info with the Banff board:
 
This is sketchy but...names should be accurate.
 
In digging around I found these possible matches.

POSSIBLE Team: Father/Daughter?? from Parramatta NSW (??)

Female:  Grace Caristo >>now disappeared from FB. A few references to some modelling and two photos from a teenaged local pageant in 2005.

(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TARaus%202/9e942625.jpg)(http://i210.photobucket.com/albums/bb140/ga--peach/TARaus%202/42c7ebf2.jpg)

Male: Giuseppe George Caristo>>There is a George Caristo Solicitor in Parramatta. No photo available. Possibly not the same person.

Giuseppe translates as....Joseph

Thoughts?? Again, names SHOULD be accurate.

Guys, thanks to help from Rich & Peach, it looks like we may have some possible TARAus Contestants:

Possible Team #2: Sam Hay & Geoff Stick - Both from Launceston TAS. Possibly the M/M seen at the Meydan racetrack??? Will look through the screencaps when peach is able to put them up :tup:

I presume they're friends. Also we may have our first amputee contestant -  Geoff may be an amputee of some kind?? Not sure on specifics though.

(http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k515/ovalorange/sam-3.jpg) Sam (http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k515/ovalorange/geoff-1.jpg) Geoff


Possible Team #3: Sue Bumbak & Teresa Italiano - Both from WA. Possibly the F/F team seen in checking in in Delhi. Possibly the same F/F hippy team seen in Manila

(http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k515/ovalorange/sue.jpg) - Sue

Possible Contestant: Tarryn Lee Thornton - no idea of a partner yet, may need some further investigation. But she's currently a Sports Dietitian for major football clubs (such as St. Kilda and Port Melbourne VFL) and has previously played for Victoria in State basketball.

Nice work Oval! Here is another photo of Geoff. Looks like he has a love or link to horse racing! Here he is winning the mens fashion on the field at the Launceston Cup back in 2010 (notice his left arm):

Special thanks to Peach & Rich once again for help for getting this team!

Possible Team #4: We think we may have our Pink girls, Joanne & Michelle Troy – Sisters and possible twins (?) from NSW.

This is NOT 100% confirmed but we believe look like a good match. IF indeed they are true, they're presumed to be in the final 5, thanks to the names on the Banff Board.

Joanne works for Jetstar, Michelle is a model and both are NRL St. George Dragon’s (http://www.dragons.com.au/) Cheerleaders. Click their names below for their Dragon's profiles.

Joanne:

It appears this team (spotted in Meydan Racecourse, Dubai) may be our Shane & Andrew team:

(http://i1113.photobucket.com/albums/k515/ovalorange/aus3-1-2.jpg)

Possible team: Meet friends Shane Haw & Andrew Thoday from Victoria.

It seems TARAus isn't the only recent competition they've entered in  :lol:

These two won the "Effen Great Bloke" competition a few months ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJKh32ARtmQ

http://www.youtube.com/v/HJKh32ARtmQ?version=3&amp;hl=en_US

They also entered in a "Biggest Titanic fan"competition: http://au.news.yahoo.com/today-tonight/competitions/titanic-biggest-fan (the last video is theirs)

Also looks like these two may possibly have been/are involved in the Victorian police department.. (police officers??)

They're presumed to be in the Final five thanks to the names on the Banff Board.

Apparently she's "like Fergie of Black Eyed Peas" ...wearing heels!

Oh my...if those really are heels... :O is this the first time on any race that a racer has competed in heels?! She looks like a more glamorous Jamie and Cara (I would've considered Jamie glamorous until she posed in Playboy).
And I think I read somewhere on this forum but didn't someone in Canada spot another young M/F team that wasn't Grace/Joseph? Could it be them?


Edit: I found the post.
I was able to catch a few things today in between studying for exams.  It's not super extensive, as it's just bits and pieces of information and evidence, but hopefully this will help:

  At Harbour Green Park, I noticed several two-person kayaks (it was difficult to tell how many there were but it looked like 5), which would fit in with the tweet regarding teams "running down Denman with paddles and life jackets."   I was only able to catch one team (male/female NOT GRACE AND JOSEPH) there, who were possibly the last team.  There were people packing up after they left, including one camera man (I'm not sure if they were production or some news channel) who was getting shots of the boat flags.  They left the area around 11:30am and went up to Hastings St.  I'm assuming they hopped into a taxi as I had lost them after walking up Bute St.  I did manage to see something blue in their hands (Route Info?).

  I then headed up to Grouse Mountain, where I found some teams heading up/down the tram.  At about 1:20, a male/female (GRACE AND JOSEPH)team came out of a tram.  I overheard the female yell to their taxi driver something like "this is the finish line," which I'm assuming was the Pit Stop for this leg of the race.  I overheard a woman and her kids saying something about Crab Park, which may have been the Pit Stop location.  This team had some problems with money (they didn't have enough) but left Grouse within 10 minutes.  I'm not sure if they begged for money when they entered the Starbucks or not.

  During this time, a male/female (NOT GRACE AND JOSEPH) team had just arrived at Grouse Mountain.  (They may have been the team I saw leaving Harbour Green Park earlier)

  The other team I saw was a female/female (EMILIA AND L_____)and they had just got off the tram at about 1:30-1:35.  As they were running to the taxi, I spotted one of the teammates holding a red Roadblock clue (Grouse Mountain=Roadblock). 

  After the female/female team left, I stayed for ~20minutes but nobody else came down during that time.  Unfortunately, I wasn't able to stay any longer to get a glimpse of the other teams or head out to Crab Park.  I was able to get some pictures but some aren't that great due to the distance and angle.



(http://i44.[banned image hosting site].com/or75hl.jpg) -Male/Female team arriving at Grouse Mountain (possibly the same team I saw at Harbour Green Park)

You can't see the team that well but according to the poster it isn't Grace and Joseph, but the male looks to have quite dark hair too (brown), also the height difference between the man and the woman could be similar to the this team spotted in Dubai? Pure speculation of course but I don't think we've had another male/female team scouted at this point that looks like they may fit the brief (i.e. I don't think it could be the supposed Tarryn Lee Thornton as she seems taller compared to the girl in this Grouse photo).

Apparently she's "like Fergie of Black Eyed Peas" ...wearing heels!

Sarah’s race preparation involved getting the perfect hybrid runner/heel made, which she calls a ‘hunner’ and finding the right hair gel for James to withstand the gruelling conditions they face.

 :hiya :wel2 to the R.F.F., AR Aus fan!

I can't talk by all my forum mates, but I use programs like Jet-Audio or VLC media player that allow to take captures from vids. Another way is using the Screen Print key on your keyboard. Hope this info help you!
