Fast ’n’ furious



RACING AHEAD Find out which team came first and last

Ten teams, together with host Allan Wu, assembled by the Singapore River began an adventure of a lifetime in The Amazing Race Asia 2. The first task sent teams scrambling for taxis. And whoever said it was difficult to get a taxi in Singapore should speak to two of the teams. Next, teams were thrown a curveball and those afraid of heights had a choice between daunting challenges of climbing up and down 45 stories of stairs or cross over from one tall building to another, dangling 181 meters off the ground.

After a detour, teams were clued in to leave Singapore and travel across the seas and over 2,000 km to their next city. One team was so determined to be the first that one of them even got out to push their vehicle when the slope proved too steep to travel. Others simply ditched their ride and went on foot. Does it take lighting speed, great strength or simply good looks (with a little brain power) to finish first?

To find out, catch the action on The Amazing Race Asia 2 on AXN on Saturdays at 10 p.m.
