What does this mean? I might be stupid.
Drew was our man on the ground documenting all the construction on TBA.

He's ready to do the same for Test Track's retheme to Test Track 3.0.

I assume part of the joke is that there will be very very little to document since any exterior overhaul will be a lot less extensive than SM-->TBA.

Unless Drew goes all Urban Explorer on us!

OOOOO!!!

I salute you Drew! Please micro analyze every little bit changed, I NEEED it.

I assume the fun exterior part is the canopy removal (thank god!). Haven't heard anything outside of that for the exterior.

They're adding a new, permanent canopy and modifying the sign

Any word on if they will do something to hide the backstage views for the outdoor portion? I love when you go outside and hit high speed (as do all guests) but it takes me out of the ride experience when you see all the backstage infrastructure. Is it just me?

I've always wanted them to build a berm and plant large trees around the backstage portion of the track
It would feel like driving in a road cutting through a forest

In an ideal world, it's being enclosed and there's going to be a projection of the future city from World of Motion with the original music.

What I do know? Nothing. 😞 Usually most people don't pay attention to that stuff.

Doesn't bother me. Were in a car where you're supposed to travel place to place. But they can plus up that loop some. I know it's a great place for them to put Chevy cars.

It was a true once-in-a-lifetime experience with Tiana with how accessible the project site was. I will be able to see a lot of the entrance work at Test Track from the monorail, so I will document what I can. I could see the ride testing at Tiana from the park, and this won't be as accessible, but similar.

The only ride testing you'll be able to see is what we see today. The car going around the outside of the building. But you might be able to report on possible new paint on the vehicles? Today, they're all blue.
