I think its obvious what could be done to "plus" Test Track (without a Cars tie-in) and still make it fit into Epcot: give the ride a futuristic overlay. I see no downside to giving Test Track a new angle...wouldn't it be even more exciting to enter a car testing facility of the future than it is to enter a present one?
In its current state, Test Track takes us through conditions we experience every day on the road and climaxes with a spin around a gray parking lot. Uh...yay? Personally I'd find it more appealing, and more appropriate for Future World, if I could go on Test Track and feel like I'm experiencing something I've never seen or done before, something that really gives me a fun and thrilling glimpse at the car of tomorrow. If I could drive a car built 100 years from now, what would be different? What will companies like GM have to think about when they build cars decades or centuries down the road? There's a ride where WDI could really get creative.
The way Test Track is now was fun two or three times. But as I grew with it--and as I myself became a driver--I found less and less about the ride to get excited about. But put me in a car from the future and take it for a spin...now that's more fun, and more EPCOT, to me. They wouldn't even have to change the ride system. Just do something, anything, to make this "thrill" ride better.
I agree with you 250%!!!! Great idea bout a futuristic car ride. That would totally fit into Future World more better.
