Summary With Cody Jensen being named the first graduate of the season, seven nominees remain at the Centre. The three challenges which the seven will take this week are all annual challenges or variations thereof. The first is the figure eight reverse challenge, which each nominee will do in a passenger van with the other six nominees as passengers. While the challenge is designed to test if the nominees know how to use their side mirrors, the drivers will have the extra pressure of doing the task in front of the gazing and often critical eyes of the other nominees. The second is perhaps the most audience favorite, namely the water tank challenge, this year's tank which has 200 liters of water potentially to dump on the nominees and their respective nominator passengers (and one unlucky expert panel member). The challenge is designed to teach vehicle dynamics and test pedal control. This year's course includes an acceleration/deceleration section leading into a sharp turn, an unexpected obstacle parking lot section, a tight maneuvering section which requires both driving forward and in reverse, and a slow reverse slalom section. The third is the eye of the needle, which this year will be done on a gradually curving course (called the Flora after season eight nominee Flora Wang's disastrous attempt on the challenge on a similar course) driven at 70kph. Through the week, a focus is placed on Tyler's history of drinking and driving, which the experience of others hopefully shining a light on the dangers of doing such to Tyler. By the panel deliberation, three nominees declare that they want to graduate this week, while the panel short lists two. They will have to decide if either has improved enough to return to public roads.
