On the monorail to MK saw this at the station

If you're looking at the beams that's pretty normal. They get dirty all the time. And as soon as the clean them they grow mold again. That's how things are in Fl my friend.

What do you class Test Track as??

Me driving my convertible on the highway.
Seriously, it's a fun enough ride, but nowhere near as thrilling as zipping through traffic at 75 MPH with me in my little Beetle!

Hahaha, I am sure it is.

Having experienced this attraction, and at least in my opinion, it is far from great, unfortunately. I wanted to be surprised/proven wrong but....

100% agree....loud, bombastic, stupid shoe-horned in story...better suited for 6-Flags or Universal...or maybe the old California Adventure

I could tell that just from the video. Horrid eyesore based on 2nd-rate characters. It's already dated and confusing as heck to anyone who hasn't seen the movie it's derived from. Fail.

I do.

No it isn’t. Innovation is needed in Epcot. This is a knee jerk reaction to taking the easiest route.

Epcot attendance and satisfaction is down due to decades of underinvestment.

Preach it Martin

 

[doctornick]

Universal is catching up to Disney in chunks according to attendance numbers. A roller coaster is needed in Epcot, which is the only Disney park without one. After they open this new attraction, the place will be swamped. It’s a business and a coaster will bring people in and sell more tickets.

I think most everyone would be on board with a roller coaster in Epcot... if it fit the part thematically. For example, if they built a ride like the Matterhorn -- either in a new Swiss pavilion or as a Mt. Fuji coaster in Japan. People are not happy with the concept behind this ride, not just because it is a coaster.

A temporarily fast moving attraction, more like Indiana Jones/Dinosaur than BT/RR/SM/EE. I get more thrills in my convertible going on a round about then I do on test-track. It's really not a roller coaster, it has a really long build up to a 15 second 65mph jog on a curve, with no drops, twists, or significant changes in direction besides curving right. We don't consider radiator springs a coaster, which is basically the same thing but done way better, so why would we think Test Track is?

Test Track is a slot car attraction

Test Track is a slot car attraction

If only they would sell TestTrack 2.0 slot car sets.

I feel like Disney's missing a golden opportunity to sell me people on a slot car set with the optional upgrade for a 3D-printed car shell that exactly matches the custom-created car designed in the attraction.

What better way to up-sell little Timmy's parental unit! Sure you can buy this $39.99 slot car racer set, but for just $20 more you can get a custom made slot car body shell that match's your child's vehicle design.

Brilliant! I need 6!

 

[Magicart87]

I'd be in for one too! See that's 7 people right there Disney! Make it happen!

Test Track isn’t a roller coaster. I would say it’s a high speed simulator.

Totally agree. Test Track is a high speed simulator that isn’t on rails and doesn’t coast. Radiator Springs is fantastic.

Ermmm it’s on rails. A big one.

And since it’s real is not a simulator.

 

[vinnyv07]

Ok...but nobody should say it’s a roller coaster. Epcot is the only Disney park in the world that doesn’t have one. It’s a glaring omission at this point.
