I've always heard 12/6 too. I was there 2 weeks ago and it didnt look remotely close to being done.
you could get great views from the monorail.

And what will be new? I read this but it's from april:

The redesigned Test Track will step things up a notch by allowing guests to design their own vehicle and put it to the test on the track. The new “SimCars” will evaluate the design throughout the course of the track and present the rider with a score at the end of the ride. Besides these scant details, little else is known about the new ride. However, some of the sporty new vehicles that will be used on the Chevrolet Test Track already made some appearances prior to Test Track’s closing on April 15th. Based on the look of these cars, the new Test Track experience will be ditching the classic yellow and black design throughout the ride for something more contemporary and cool.

Test Track closed

I'll be at the media event Dec 5-7 and Test Track is on the list of things we're to do... So I'll take pictures and video and post to the site from the event.

Great, thanks John!

Supposedly the ride vehicles were cycling the other night with Test Track CMs in them....

I'm with ya. Our last full day in the parks is the 2nd, so am hoping for a little

**nicholsbears** · 11-20-2012, 03:08 PM

I'm with you...hoping for a miracle...our last day there is Dec.1. Last time we waited for Test Track to open it was 4 years after the projected opening date !

**kohlby** · 11-20-2012, 03:47 PM

I heard a couple weeks ago that the whisper date for reopening was Nov 21st, but that's whisper, meaning that I wasn't holding my breath. (But really, really hoping for a little after that when we're there!) On some board that I can't rememeber, someone mentioned that a CM said Wed -as in this Wed. Now, of course that's a random person on the internet saying Wed, but it does match that soft opening of Nov 21st that I heard from a source that I trust more than someone totally random.

So, keep checking up on it! It's possible!

You may be in luck as the ride may actually be open no later than December 1... Just don't take it as fact...

I walked by tonight and most of the cars were running empty, but I did hear one car that had people because we heard screams.

**Main Street Jim** · 11-22-2012, 11:26 AM

CM's have been getting previews

I've seen pics of the artist concepts and stuff; this "new" version reminds me a LOT of the old World of Motion

Lookin' good so far, Imagineers!

**PAYROLL PRINCESS** · 11-24-2012, 03:28 PM

One more thing on my to do list in a week. I'll be at the World by this time next week!

**DizneyFreak2002** · 11-27-2012, 09:45 PM

Look for soft openings for guests by this Saturday... A few things are still being brought up online and tested during CM previews... CM reviews are out there for all to read... Sounds pretty interesting.. My only concern is with allowing guests to design their car in the Stand By line... I fear this may artificially increase wait times.... But, we'll see once the ride opens... Hopefully my concern is not a reality...

**Lightning McQueen** · 11-27-2012, 10:12 PM

Cm reviews are out where for all to see?

Yep.. lot of CMs posting reviews on the net.. Just gotta search

**Altair** · 11-28-2012, 07:21 AM

Is there going to be a way to bypass all the interactive stuff and just do the ride itself?

I sure hope so. After reading about the new design your own-it just sounds like filler to me. I have no interest in this addition.

I'm with you on this. It sounds to me like this is in the que line? Correct? And if that is the case, if the people in front of you are taking forever to design their car and you want to just move ahead, well you're stuck!! And what if you get a group of 10 people and they all want to design it, and then a group of 5 behind them and so on and so on...Just seems like it has the potential to make the wait for this ride a nightmare.

Thank god I only feel the need to ride it once a year.
