Those unfulfilled people who try to fill the void in their empty lives by writing whiny letters to the editor complaining about shit that no one really cares about?
Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

No it's not, the show actually originated in Disneyland Paris. Disneyworld in Florida then brought the show to MGM studios called Lights, Motors, Action! I've probably seen it 3 times now. The stunts are pretty wicked, but a lot of it looks like ballet with cars. At the end of one of those sequences the entire stage just reaks of tires and smoke. They go through a set of tires per car per show.Originally posted by dj_rice

It's supposed to show you the sequences involved in making an action sequence in a film. They have separate sequences where the car jumps off a truck and a motorcycle chase, needless to say there are tons of explosions and pyro as well.
The cars are Opel Corsa's which are pretty much gutted with roll cages and special transmissions with 4 forward gears and 4 reverse gears. From what I remember also there are 2 or 3 different red cars with one that the driver sits backwards facing out the rear (there are sequences where the car is driven in reverse to do stunts). There's also another where the driver sits outside on a frame bolted to the side of the car (which is hidden from the crowd). As dj_rice pointed out, they are motorcycle engines. The drivers practice in GTO's in an area located in the backlot.Originally posted by BoS_DC2

The show is only 5 years old, it started in 2002 and came to the US/Florida in I believe 2005.Originally posted by nismodrifter
