"The Amazing Race Asia 2" is the second season of the reality television game show "The Amazing Race Asia". The show features ten teams of two, with a pre-existing relationship, in a race around the world to win US$100,000.

This season premiered on November 22, 2007 at 9PM (UTC+8) and ended on February 14, 2008 at 9PM (UTC+8).

Production

Development and filming

"The Amazing Race Asia 2" covered 50,000 kilometres (32,023 miles) in 24 days. [cite web|url=http://www.axn-asia.com/press/2007/10/22/tara2-begin.html |title= The Second Amazing Race Asia Begins! |accessdate=2007-11-16] This season had teams racing across 4 continents. The show adopted newer rules in the US version, such as the non-elimination penalty where the team who checked in last must make it to first place in the next leg or else incur the 30 minute penalty. Production made the Race more competitive by imposing more self-driving and reducing the chance of teams being bunched up on the same airplane flight.cite web|url=http://www.star-ecentral.com/news/story.asp?file=/2007/12/19/tvnradio/19789496&sec=tvnradio |title= Even more thrills in TARA2|publisher= The Star|accessdate=2007-12-24]

This season of "The Amazing Race Asia" had two different penalties for coming in last on a non-elimination leg. While Edwin & Monica were marked for elimination for coming in last on the first leg, Henry & Terri were stripped of all their money and will begin the next leg with no money after coming in last on the sixth leg. Racers were not told that the original non-elimination penalty was still applicable. This twist led to an argument between Henry and host Allan Wu at the Seoul finish mat, when the former was unwilling to give up his team's money.cite web|url=http://www.alivenotdead.com/allanwu/Where-d+the+Fight+Go---profile-78828.html |title=Where'd the Fight Go??|publisher=Alive Not Dead|publishdate=2008-01-04|accessdate=2008-01-12] In the following leg, the penalty reverted to the 'marked for elimination' penalty after Henry & Terri finished last consecutively.

fnb|1 Brett & Kinaryosih were unable to complete the Detour on Leg 3, since they arrived at the North Shore Rowing Club after business hours-they backed out of the Wall Detour.

They will start at the next leg receiving no money as well.
