Development

Production

Yawkey Park, adjacent to the Creeperdome Spleef Arena in Silver Spring, was the starting line of The Amazing Race 2.

The season was announced on the Wiki in April 2015. Shortly thereafter, applications were opened. The starting line was announced to occur on May 23, 2015, on May 30, 2015. After it was announced the final legs would be run on July 5, 2015, due to scheduling conflicts, legs five and six were determined to be run separately.

This season spanned 34 towns over two worlds. This season marks the first season to visit the New World and its towns of Whitechapel, Vermilion, Xandar, Ilirea, Airchester, Soiled Solitude, Achowalogen Takachsin, Victorian City, Melrose, Vergil, Elecna Bay, Zaquar and the Old World towns of Silver Spring, Inchmuir, Amphitheatre, Miningstone, Oasis, Splurgeville, Arisa, Autocity, Woodzy Beach, Sandstone Fair, Lighthouse, Hamanei, Laurel, Department of Defense, Whelburn, Hillside-Pagoda, Silverhaven, and Kitania.

This season saw the Race's first Express Pass, awarded to the team who finished first on the first leg. The pass allowed the team to skip any Detour, Roadblock or Route Marker task before Leg 7. CortesiRaccoon and bestmate66 won the Express Pass, which they later used to bypass the Detour in Leg 6.

Cast

Applications opened on April 18, 2015 and were closed on April 24, 2015. From there, 10 teams were added to the list to participate in the Race. Out of those teams, six full teams and three halves of a team showed up. As per usual, walk-ins to join the Race on the day were permitted, which allowed teams to be formed on the first day. chiefbozx was originally paired with hntredtie; however, hntredtie failed to show up and chiefbozx was thus paired with RLcrafters who showed up on the first day. Also, Skelezomperman was originally paired with jphgolf4321 and JohnNotTech was originally paired with Soleurs; however, jphgolf4321 and Soleurs failed to show up, and Skelezomperman was thus paired with JohnNotTech.
