CBS hasn't released any additional details about the seventeenth edition yet, however filming has already completed and the Race began in Gloucester, MA in late May.
Local eyewitnesses spotted the teams boarding local fishing boats that took them across the small seaport's harbor. Once there, The Amazing Race host Phil Keoghan began the Race and the teams scrambled to drive themselves to Logan International Airport in Boston, where they boarded flights to England.
In addition to The Amazing Race's seventeenth-season debut, CBS also announced Survivor: Nicaragua -- Survivor's 21st edition -- will premiere on Wednesday, September 15 at 8PM ET/PT.
As it has for the last nine years, Survivor's premiere will mark the debut of CBS' new fall schedule. The rest of the network's schedule won't begin premiering until Monday, September 20, the formal start of the 2010-2011 television season.
CBS had renewed The Amazing Race for its seventeenth season in January and announced the show's fall broadcast in May.
