EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

[JD80]

They seem so … excited

Seems pretty good in front of a camera which is not typical of engineers. (I'm an engineer)

Not sure what you were expecting. I think most expected the new vehicles with new wraps on the same track with new theming around it. They're cars. On a test track. In a new environment.

I expected brand new cars, not some shiny new graphics and different seats. The actual bodies of the cars and the guts will stay the same.

I grow more convinced this is going to be a bunch of screens with some condescending WoM “Easter eggs” thrown in…

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it." I think you expected a lot. That's like saying you expected new logs for TBA. The point was always new theming around the track and a different look to the cars.

They’re just upset they got stuck with this turd of a refresh instead of getting hired by Uni for EU.

Wait… there are people who were expecting new ride vehicles??

I want them to make as few "improvements" as possible! We see what they did to the Splash reskin.

Some of y'all just can't be positive about anything.

Please No! If it works DONT FIX IT!! just put the new wraps on the cars!

Because it’s a joke.

Look at how creative we are, we slapped a wrap and some stickers on the decades old ride vehicle!

I'm just really thankful we're not going to get projected faces on the front of the cars, the chance to sing-along with all our favourite songs from Encanto during the cruise section, and meet Elsa in her new all-weather vehicle in the post-show.

GM is paying for it, not WDW. That is why I expected better.

While it would be nice to see all new vehicles, I don't think the GM budget is quite that big.

It has been 19 months since this project was announced. We have seen/heard absolutely nothing from the ride except a boring vehicle wrap and the same piece of concept art of the forest scene. This thing allegedly opens in four months. They have gotta show SOMETHING of substance soon, I don’t think this thread can take many more “I’m excited for Test Track!” posts that pop up every few weeks when there’s nothing else to talk about

Okay. What do you actually want here?

Don't cry little Test Track fan.... Disney's Instagram has enough blurry tree WIPs to last you until opening...

JERRY, GET ME ANOTHER QUEUE BUILDING VIDEO UPLOADED ON THE DOUBLE! THE FANS ARE HUNGRY!

WAHHH!

GOOD! Do not try to "update or improve" the ride system! See what happened with the Splash reskin!

Just wrap the cars, blow the dust out of the Windows 95 machines and boot them back up!

But why would they need to make new ride vehicles when there’s nothing wrong with the old ones? Seems like a waste of everyone’s time to build entirely new ride vehicles when there was no issues with the existing ones. I’d much rather them focus on the attraction experience than waste money on updating an element that didn’t need updating.

This just seems like complaining for the sake of complaining.
