The second photo shows what looks like the backside of the "OnStar" screen from right before the capability section.

Blog mickey came to a similar conclusion in their article: https://blogmickey.com/2024/06/equi...ld-begins-reimagining-of-test-track-at-epcot/

I need to stop picking fights in other places about why 2.0 was way better than 1.0

2.0 WAS better then 1.0.

I was hoping for the next generation of the slot car ride system (maybe something that can do a bit of a drifting effect or something with more on-board effects?) but yeah... a back step to another omnimover would be kind of funny!

We spin for the entirety of the outside portion.

Then TT can one up CR for ride that causes the most motion sickness at WDW!

Disagree. Mr. McKim and his facility always beat Tron Track in my opinion.

Behold... scaffolding!

So TT 3.0 is a stage show?
Didn't they just open one?

I actually think test track 1.0 is a better more coherent attraction than 2.0. I’m not a fan of the whole “interactive queue” to build your dream car and the interiors were even lazier than the original. At the least the original looked very industrial like your actually in a GM testing facility The 2.0 version is some vague your IN the computer program that designs cars thing.

neither one is as good as World of Motion though

I am too. I was a big fan of WoM and I also really liked the original test track. Test track 2.0? Not so much. But the idea of combining parts of WoM and the original test track could be amazing. It's all in the hands of the imagineers. I am unfortunately not with you on the care to Tiana's. I don't think it meets what it should have been. That said, I'm sure GM has a lot of say because it's their dime. So I'm hopeful that they do it right. Of course they approved tron track so it's anyone's guess how this goes. But of all the re-dos, this is one I have the most hope for.

Its funny. The one ride that gets the right attention and is still aligned with original Epcot Center is the one ride that still has a sponsor. Maybe Disney Brass should go back to that model for the rest of the current Future World attractions save for GotG. That ride belongs somewhere else.

Sorry, what’s Goth?

I'm assuming a typo for Guardians of the Galaxy.

It was a typo for Guardians. Sorry all, my bad. I meant to type GotG
