"Lightning McQueen's Racing Academy" will open at the park early next year, Walt Disney Imagineering's Kathy Mangum announced at a press conference following the dedication of Toy Story Land this morning. Featuring the star of Pixar's Cars franchise, the new show will be located near Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster and also will feature Mater and Cruz Ramirez.
Outside of BatB, is there another theater out in that area?

BlogMickey is also suggesting it will be in the flex space.

While it's great to get something new, I'd still love to see some of the other spaces updated.

And thematically it seems like an odd addition out there with hardly any connection to what's around it. But I guess on RnRC you do go in cars...

This is my feelings on it. A little odd of a choice. And out of the way.

Really hilarious they 'reboot' the park and continue to offer 30 year old stage shows. Such a shame. They just don't get it.

✅New "attraction"
✅Doesn't replace existing attraction
✅Features Lightning McQueen to please my two-year-old

I'm down. Hopefully the opening of this show coincides with the closing of another show (LM or BatB) to allow for a quick replacement before SW:GE opens.

It's interesting because Disney clearly is going for "all hands on deck" in preparation for SW:GE opening. But I wonder if this will be a true increase in capacity, or if they're making sure they don't lower capacity when they do close something else to be re-done. I'm hoping for the latter.
