Test Track

Dark ride
Minimum height to ride: 40 inches

Description

You become the test dummy at a GM proving ground. The guest buckle up in 6 passenger cars through bumps,brake test, temperature changes,banked curves, and the barricade test. One of Epcot's most thrilling and fun-filled attractions. You go up to speeds of 65 mph. Making it the fastest attraction that Disney has ever created. This can draw some of the lonest lines in Epcot so I suggest the FastPass or the single-riders line if you don't mind riding on your own. -- Last edited by Christopher Combs

Great ride all the way around. Appeals to about anyone. No weaknesses!!! A true must-see!! - Gil Long

It's a fun ride and an educational one. I don't think it's worth more than an hour wait though. Even if you're with a group, take the single rider line if there are no fast passes available. - Laura Daspit

A fast, entertaining ride that starts slowly at the start and becoming very wild and fun at the last minute. Not a priority but still a must-see. - Adriel Tjokrosaputro

Other than being a giant GM commercial, this ride was pretty lame. Yeah, you get to go fast, whooptie-doo. Oh, and you get to see how they test cars. Amazing. You get more thrills fighting traffic to get to Epcot than on this ride. Save your fastpass for Soarin' or Mission:Space. - Remek Kocz

The best ride in Walt Disney World. When you entering the area and see the cars zipping around at 65 MPH (yes 65!!) don't be scared. The attentional to detail is phenomenal. Even standing in the que line you won't be bored. Please not that Fastpasses usually run out by mid afternoon just like soarin'. I can ride all day long if the castmembers would just let me. - P V

This ride surprised me completely. I thought the concept sounded boring and commonplace, but this ride is awesome. I think it is so much more thrilling than Mission Space. - Amanda Jenkins

Our favourite ride at Epcot. Everyone enjoyed this one, and anything that makes the wife squeal is O.K. by us. Good fun & well themed. - neil Jackson

This is an amazing ride. Very good use of technology and education. Gives people an excitement and boosts your morale for the day. - Ben James

This is an awesome ride! Disney really knows how to give guests what they want. I love this ride! The finale was just amazing! It was so exhilirating when you go on that hair-raising turn at 60 MPH!!! Disney has done it again! I am not surprised that Disney has this and others don't! - Austin Jacobs

When I first rode this the gag was your car watched a crash test occur and then you were next. That aspect was removed (you no longer see the other car crash). I like it better the old way. I like the old scripting and timing. Still a commendable ride and one of the best 3 thrill rides in all of Disney World. - Tony Garcia

Not as great as it once was, some rides get better with time...this one does not. The line queue used to be fun because everybody would see the animated assembly line tests....now they are all turned off, and the ride itself really needs an extra kick, though I still consider it a favorite. - Wilfredo Alvelo

A wonderful ride, I was afraid to ride it the first time, but I got over my fright and rode many many more times in the past, and more to come. :) - Molly R
