The steel framework mirrors the concept art, revealing a sleek, modern aesthetic that aligns with the attraction's updated focus on celebrating the evolution of mobility. The new look also fits EPCOT's updated look throughout the former Future World areas.

I'm glad that new signage is coming to the new Test Track 3.0! Test Track Presented by GM! I can't hardly wait!

Just put some blue roof tarps on the top and call it good for another decade.

You are driving up a winding mountain road stuck behind an 18 wheeler. The highway finally straightens out and you pass the truck and floor it to let out your frustration!

Why are you sad?

Gosh that was an annoying show. Turned into a preview-fest by the end. But I'm not a huge fan of the original World of Color either. Haven't seen the other variations.

I’m surprised Disney hasn’t utilized more of their go-to celeb friends for voice overs and narration in the parks. Like is it only a matter of time before we get Neil Patrick Harris, John Stamos, or even Edward James Olmos in the park?

It wouldn’t surprise me. They had far less of a purpose in 2.0 than they did in 1.0, it wouldn’t take much to justify ripping them out for 3.0

If so, let’s hope they are clever with climate control. I feel like much of the ride is hot in the summer. It’s not as much a problem at unload because of the steep decline after the high-speed loops. Separately, I’d love a John Michael Higgins cameo on 3.0!

This isn't confirmed or anything but my dark horse speculation is they might get rid of the barricade walls on the power test. As I'm sure you know they were very hit-or-miss in 2.0's later years and internally there seems to be a strong directive on keeping the ride envelope of attractions completely unobstructed.
