Just got home from Disney last night. The stunt show at MGM was pretty good. They used modified Opels with 1400cc motorcycle engines. A lot of chasing each other, donuts, some exploding jumps. These guys did some really nice controlled, tight drifts around buildings. And the coordination of who’s where when you have 4 cars flying around is always amazing. ---

As everything from throttle to steering to braking is computer controlled… I saw it last summer and also saw something on TV on it. They have several different versions of each car that look alike, however, I did not notice anything about the driver being useless as they stated how much work it was for the drivers and things more to that effect… ---

They did have one part where a little girl from the audience used a “remote control” to drive the car. It looked like no one was in the car until you saw the other side where they had a frame attached with the driver sitting on the outside of the car controlling it. Hell, it would seem harder to control it by remote/computer than having an actual driver unless it was on a rail! Regardless, it was nice to catch a whiff of smoking rubber and hear engines rev to get It’s a Small World out of my head. 🙂
