Replacement for Tomorrowland Speedway?

[peter11435]

So.

What if I said this isn't replacing the speedway?

Are you implying that's it's replacing something else? or that it's in addition? Or?

What if they did a Midget Autopia at the Test Track locations as was planned with Project Gemini, and completely reimagined all that land in Tomorrowland fmor several things....then they would still have the "U Drive" attraction but over at the pavilion that is all about cars, and the property in MK is available for a huge redevelopment....

Going somewhere else or not going in at all?

Also maybe Disney is going with the gifts from all other parks for MK's 50th like they did years back when they brought Soarin and LMA. Paris gives us Ratatouille, hai gives us tron, etc.

I grew up going to an amusement park where the kid's area was called "Hanna Barbera Land". It had some great attractions!

Boy how I miss some of that old theming. The Enchanted Voyage is one of my all time favorites

 

[marni1971]

Would you be so kind sir to share what is replacing the speedway?

The theme. Or lack of.

Sounds like D23 will have a LOT of goodies for WDW!

There should be a lot.

Some not yet in the public domain either.

Sounds like Tron Coaster is replacing Tomorrowland Speedway from what I'm seeing!

I always get excited when you post something. But plan C as in other things happening first? Or as in they're gonna do 3 things and this is part 3 of the whole?

Only 6 more days until D23's Parks and Resorts panel.

Pretty sure as in they had 3 options, and they are going with this.

A man can dream though.

No no no.

Seems the staff here at WDWMagic is going to be quite busy creating new threads this weekend (more so than normal for a D23 event at least). Guess you'll (@marni1971 ) be on-call to provide the details/corrections!

I've visited Shanghai disneyland and went on the tron ride about 5 times. It's soo amazing. It really is. I'm very happy about this cause my family has grown up and are looking for some more thrill and magic kingdom, as much as I love the park and still think it's one of the best in the world, just doesn't have a real thrill ride like EE or Tron. So I'm soo happy if this would be true. I loved the ride and was so disappointed I maybe would never get to ride it again, but now maybe I will!

@lentesta may be able to speak more to this, but the explanation that Jim Hill gave on the Tron coaster was that Disney would order two of the bike coasters with the other one being a Captain America ride at DCA. Is that correct?
