We saw the first pictures of the Chevy Trax during the filming on Front Street a couple of days ago, but now we have some great video of them all in action, racing down the street at high speed thanks to shiganamichick44:

Skippety Skip go Megan, Shia and Ramon June 22nd, 2008
These videos from EfraineQuinones firstly show the trio of autobots, Bumblebee, Beat and Trax briefly in action — proving they can corner at slow speeds in new synchronized formation. Ramon, Shia and Megan exit and head into the shop, before coming back out and gleefully skipping down the road.

Pictures from Eastern State Penitentiary June 21st, 2008
Looks like Shia LaBoeuf, Megan Fox, Bumblebee, the Chevy Beat and the Chevy Trax turned up for filming at the Eastern State Penitentiary.
VDG was on hand to get images of the crew and automobiles turning up, even getting close enough to capture a shot of the rims on the Chevy Trax — showing a very nice Autobot logo in the center of the hub cap!
Faded Silver Screen were also on location to capture the vehicles coming and going on Fairmount Avenue:
EnergonKid has also given an account of the preparations for filming which include large blast shields:
I couldn’t get inside the prison, or get any decent pictures but I watched them unload trucks for a while. They were taking in lexan blast shields they put cameras behind when there is an explosion or sparks nearby. It seemed like an awful lot of support trucks. Tons of lighting and rigging. I would bet there will be some effect/pyrotechnics taking place, considering they’ve been prepping this for three days and the scope of the stuff they are taking in.
Lorenztom has also got a couple more shots of the Paris set at City Hall:

New Jim Gordon email June 20th, 2008
Jim has sent out an email to all MCU personnel — could this relate to the dock activity we saw yesterday?
To all MCU personnel,
With the probe into money laundering operations of the Gotham mobs well underway, I wanted to thank you for all your hard work and ask you all to keep your eyes open.
We all know that the mob can be quite ingenious when it comes to money laundering schemes. MCU must be just as ingenious in trying to root these schemes out.
Please, in your everyday life – as well as your work on the job – keep a lookout for anything out of the ordinary that may signal a money laundering scheme. Overheard conversations, suspicions of stores you frequent, etc. Everything is fodder for this critical investigation.
If you have any leads, tips, or information that can help the Major Crimes Unit crack this murky network of banks, businesses, and the people who run them, do not hesitate to contact me.
Thanks.
Jim
