Could the speedway be modified with augmented reality? That would severely undercut any tricks for Mario Kart at USO.

Props to @marni1971 ! When the rest of the internet seemed certain that this would result in the loss of the seedway, he was one of the few that stuck by the fact that it would not and (at least by this concept art), seems he's right (again!)

For those of you that have ridden Tron does it launch you really fast like Rock N Roller Coaster?

20 years ago, this would have been cool. Today, it just reeks of the Bob's "All IP, all the time" mandate. Not terribly excited by this, even though it's the first E-ticket addition to MK since Splash.

Huge sigh of relief. Thank God that the Speedway is staying. Wouldn't mind seeing some form of a refurb.

It is so far past time. Hopefully they do it soon after Splash reopens.

What's up with that mountain on the left side of the Tron building where the train is? Is that rock work that will cover up the building and make a back drop for the train?

I am extremely excited about this project. The funny thing is that all negative comments and concerns are actually true, but it still does not matter to me. "Ride is short" - true, but it is a launched coaster and thrilling and those are generally short. "It's a clone" - again, true, but so what? It's a great ride. I would probably never ride it in China; I am for sure going to ride it in MK. "It's another IP" - well, yes, but does it really matter? In any case, it doesn't to me (at least not much and not in this ride). "It looks out of space in Tomorrowland" - this one is actually a positive 
. It looks better than the rest of the land. It gives me hope that Disney will significantly plus the land and our insiders have heavily hinted toward that.
I am actually very curious how far they will go with reinvigorating the land. Some things are obvious, like Space Mountain refurb and something, anything with Speedway, and I don't doubt they'll do them. But will they go far enough? For example, will they extend PeopleMover to include Tron? PeopleMover is one of my favorite underrated attractions and such extension plus some refurb love could really bring it up.

I agree. Peoplemover is as important to me as doing Space Mountain or Splash Mountain. It's outdated yes, and some dark ride scenes (whether an IP like Stitch or unique) would make it feel fresh. But it is so much fun, and so relaxing.I am extremely excited about this project. The funny thing is that all negative comments and concerns are actually true, but it still does not matter to me.

Alright, let's just see how it plays out.
Very easy for you to go out on a limb on this one to try and look like an insider.
In the future I'm sure you'll say "well, plans change."

I would assume the new carousel paint job won't fit in too well.
