Only three filming dates, so seems like another very short series.

Unless they're doing what TGUS did and film multiple episodes on one day. Besides, there's an episode in the can we haven't seen yet.

^ I went to a filming of one of the series 1 episodes. That started earlier than 16:45 and we didn't get out until well after 7:00 pm. Since the production company is the same, I doubt they would be able to pull off 2 episodes in one sitting without the audience needing to bring sleeping bags.

Caught them filming in Cronulla Today for some sort of challenge. From what i gathered it was a dune buggy race challenge sorta thing. They had a track through the Wanda sand dunes. Only saw them filming where i took the pictures however as I had to go to work so couldn't hang around.

Steve , Ewen and Shane were all there, Shane drove off set while the other two were doing filming.

The Ford Pickup - Shane
BMW - Ewen
The Other thing - Steve

^ Great find! I'm afraid it doesn't whet my appetite for the next series though. All I see is another pointless, half-arsed challenge in production.
The "other thing" is a Fiat X19 btw.

I'm looking forward to this season with less enthusiasm than Jeremy Clarkson in a Perodua Dealership.

I wouldn't mind, in fact quite liked s2 on SBS.

But the Channel Nein direction this show has taken is quite disappointing.

"Souped up the ute" eh? Thanks Nine. Not!

No. Just "Dumber, Worse, Coming to a grinding halt."
