The junk yards looked alot alike, but I remember for the "pumpkin chukin'" contest, the host said they were at a test site in California. SO I guess they must have rigged up a very good copy of the set in Calif.

The "Young Guns" team on that show was from California. The other team "Rusty Juveniles" was from Ohio, but the show was filmed in London with the shootout taking place about 25 miles east of London. The red submersible is an oil well platform escape pod and it looks like it would be a wild ride, but better than trying to swim thru burning oil. It once had a diesel motor in it, and still has tanks of nitrogen and regulators in it. The next set of shows will be filmed in California if the power don't go off. London is a fun place to visit. Waddy/ "Wreckspert" for the "Rusty Juveniles" in the "Punkin Chunkin" episode. See: Punkinchunkin.com for more about the sport.
