That's at Disney world I saw that show...it's pretty cool but at the end they tell you their secrets of the stunts. The cars are highly modified to be able to do this. And notice how they sound like weedwackers.

My ex's step-father helped synchronize the soundtrack and special effects for that show. He was overseas for months at a time working for Disney helping build the cruise ships and Work Disney. Theres a part with motorcycles as well. During pre-release practice one of the stunt motorcycle drivers died because he didn't make one of his jumps. Crazy show that's for sure.

From wikipedia:

The cars used throughout the show are highly modified Opels. The hero car is a custom-built design for the show, while the pursuit cars are Opel Corsas. The 3 different hero cars are all painted red, while the pursuit cars are black to easily allow guests to tell the difference between them. The show also includes specially designed cars that look identical to the others used in the show. Two of which are red "hero" cars. One has the interior situated backwards to allow the driver to appear as if he's driving in reverse, and the other has a seat and steering wheel bolted onto the side of the car, giving the appearance that the car has no driver in the driver's seat. One of the black "pursuit" cars is cut in half behind the front doors to give it the appearance of exploding during a scene in the show.

The cars, while they appear stock, are reinforced with rally car roll cages for driver safety. The cars are powered with 1,300 cc, 150 horsepower motorcycle engines mounted directly behind the driver's seat. The cars have 4 gears in forward drive and 4 gears in reverse, allowing the drivers to accelerate to high speed going backwards. The car has a bump shift for easier gear shifting. The driver merely bumps the shifter forward to go up a gear, and back to go back a gear. In order to go in reverse, the driver twists the top of the shifter and bumps it forward, or backwards. The emergency brake automatically releases when the driver lets go. The show cars weigh just 1,322 pounds.
