Those are the worst looking costumes I have ever seen. Epcot does have extremely ugly CM costumes, (just think Imagination!).

Great pics, though, MKT!! Thanks.

The Car on the left is driven normally, the car on the right is setup backwards... ie, the back is the front/the front is the back.

I did enjoy it, quite a few things were missing, according to the CM's and the Stunt Coordinator whom I spoke with (the actual one, not the Disney Actor), so I'll reserve total judgement until I see the full attraction. However, based on what I've seen, it's EXTREMELY promising, and I can't wait to see the full show.

What else... the drivers are not WDW CM's, they work for Extreme Stunt (www.extremestunt.com), a stunt company based out of Orlando.

About LMA, when the Paris version opened, they touted the jet skis that are also used on the water in the show. When I went to Paris and saw the show live, there were no jet skis. Then when the announcement for LMA came to Florida, the jet skis were again touted. In the photos from MKT I see... no jet skis. What gives? Is it coincidence? I don't see why they would bother with the river of water if they weren't there but I was just curious.

Even without the jet skis, the show was really cool in Paris, so hopefully they are able to recreate that here.

I'm still trying to find out what the Pontiacs are being used for... perhaps training cars? I like the setups on the red cars. 3 of them in the show, 1 is driven normally, 1 is actually driven backwards (cockpit is backwards, driver sees out the rear window) for reverse chases, and one is driven from the side, with a cockpit outside the car.

As far as the specs, 4 gears forwards AND reverse going through a 1300CC Motorcycle Motor.

I'm heading out now, I'll be back later to talk about this.

thats odd how they train in a GTO, at least i think thats what they were and go to a much smaller car with such different physics.

Were they front or rear wheel drive?

I saw the Jet skis in the back... maybe they're for a rain show? I'm not sure what they're used for, but I'm gonna try to go back tomorrow for more.

I'm still trying to figure out what the GTO's are there for... maybe they'll have different shows, or different scenarios. Then again, if you can do a donut in an overweight, high-torque, RWD car, a high revving lightweight car the size of a gumball shouldn't be a big issue.

As for the drivetrain, I'm guessing RWD, but some of the driving characteristics definitely confused me. The backwards car was definitely FWD though

I believe in Paris the Jet Skis were removed after an accident when it was decided it was unsafe to continue without major mods to the canal. You can see them used in some promo footage - when the `good guy` swings over the canal on the left hand side he was to drop onto a ski.

I like the costumes for what they are. I am a fan of cheesy Epcot colors... :D

Not too hyped about the airport, but at least we get the Seasons.

Stunts looks like a blast.
