It's not themed to the American wilderness, it's themed to the Carsland "wilderness," full of puns from a straight-to-DVD quality spinoff from the least witty franchise Pixar ever produced.

And no, a "rally race" would be an incredibly boring ride concept with or without eyes on the cars - and would be just as out of place stuck by Haunted Mansion, Big Thunder, and the rest of Frontierland.
This! It is not cars in Frontierland... it is the end of any Frontierland because this is just a Cars themed area...but not one from the Cars movie we loved....completely out of place...and causing us the lose the whole back half of the park, the river and two other attractions to put in a fake mountain range designed to look like car parts... Frontierland indeed.

Be happy, you could have had this in front of CBJ, there is precedent just through the passage

I think that if this attraction wasn't tied to Cars but was still a rally race through the wilderness, it would be better received.
If it was vintage cars like model t’s it would be better received with or without a cars connection.

If it wasn’t in the middle of Frontierland and evicting the rivers and riverboat it would also be better received.

The ip is the least of the concerns

To you…. This could be an exciting attraction. I get people want to crepe all over this ride because of them losing ROA.

The facts are we know nothing about this ride to be making statements like this. Give it a rest…

I believe location had something to do with it too…. The coco building couldn’t go where cars is going.
It would be difficult to put up any building in place of the southern end of RoA. You'd have to do 'a Space Mountain' and have people enter a smaller (themed) structure and walk all the way to the main building probably put up behind Haunted Mansion.

The Cars Rally allows for the entirety of the ride to exist without trying to hide a Big Box.

There’s an entire team at Pixar that is going to be paid to ensure the attraction follows the art direction of the Cars franchise.
Exactly. We can argue about Cars in Magic Kingdom all we want. We can argue about maintaining the Rivers of America all we want. But, we also have to acknowledge that Disney (and Zsolt) do rockwork exceptionally well. Moreover, the aesthetics of the rockwork heavy lands that Disney has built in recent memory have been excellent. I have every expectation that this will look great.
