It’s Going to Be a Bumpy Ride: What You Don’t See on Counting Cars

The Filming Isn’t Chronological

It probably doesn’t come as a shock to find out Counting Cars isn’t exactly filmed in chronological order, simply because many of the episodes were filmed in a short amount of time. The team had so many projects going on at once, so it only made sense to film different parts as they progressed, instead of waiting for one car to be finished before moving to the next one.

The team could have been working on 15 different cars at a time, which shows how chaotic things probably were in the garage. But with the incredible power of editing, everything looks perfect on screen for viewers to enjoy. Ah! The magic of television.
