Time racers was what was supposed to replace Spaceship Earth, but sadly is not going to, but I'm not real sure of the details

"Spaceship Earth: Time Racer" is the designed POST SHOW to Spaceship Earth. Could still happen.

So I don't see what this has to do with Wonders of Life.

uh, I thought Time Racers was gonna be a real ride, but they coudn't build it cause of building problems with the ball. They think since WoL is closing seasonaly, and maybe forever, it would be a good stop to build the new ride

You're right - the SE plan to gut/rehab was cancelled - but that was "Spaceship Earth." The POST-SHOW was Time Racers.

And because we have Spaceship Earth, it would be redundant to replace WOL with its rehab design. :lookaroun

I, too, agree with changing the name from Future World to Discoveryland. First of all, Epcot was supposed to be the future. But that never happened. Even Future World wasn't the future. The Living Seas, the Land, Immagination- they don't tell the the Future. SSE tells the past,presant, and future. UoE does not tell the Future. WOM told the past, presant and future. The point is, Epcot never was "future world". It was always "Discoveryland" known as Future World. It was the area of the park where you could discover- the ocean, communication, your immagination, the wonders of life, the world of motion- since when was this the future? To make a park based on future is almost impossible as updating it is expensice, costly and you end up with Disneyland's Tomorrowland. A park based on discovery has no limits. WHile Future is such a narrow topic, Discovery is such a wide topic that includes everything from your immagination, to argriculture in the land.
