Correct. In fact the track was lengthened by 85m in order to accommodate the Nemo ride.

I'll try a few non-parks related questions :)
1) Who invented and built the multi-plane camera for Walt Disney Productions?
2) To go along with Zawadi's previous question: Walt Disney was a member of the Smoke Tree Ranch. What was the Smoke Tree Ranch?
3) Who is Bob and Helen Parr's family babysitter?
4) What is Flynn Rider's real name?
5) Who are Mickey mouse's nephews?
6) Who are Daisy Duck's neices?
7) Walt Disney's Carolwood Pacific barn now resides in what Los Angeles-area park?
8) Former Walt Disney Company president Frank Wells aspired to accomplish what feat? How close did he come to accomplishing his goal?
9) In Cars 2, what racing circuit does Francesco Bernoulli represent?
10) True or false: Walt Disney forged his birthdate to become "enlisted' in the military in 1918.
Ub Iwerks.
A desert ranch near the village of Palm Springs. Walt built a home here... twice. He sold his first home to help generate funding for his Disneyland project. Walt loved to visit this place! It is often referred to as his hidden hideaway.
Kari McKeen.
His full name is Eugene Fitzherbert.
Morty and Ferdie.
April, May and June.
Griffith Park.
Mr. Wells' goal was to scale the Seven Summits. This entailed climbing the highest mountain on each of the seven continents. At his time of death, he was one mountain short. That mountain was none other than Mount Everest.
The Italian Circuit.
I believe that this is true. I learned about this years ago when watching a Walt Disney documentary... unless you fiddled with the year to trick us!! :secret:
*Very* close :) I'm looking for something a little more specific.
Also close :)
Incorrect. I didn't fiddle with the year at all :) Read the question again carefully :)
Not sure on these ones. :(
Actually, come to think about it... I think we've already had this discussion in the trivia section before. Haha.
Well, from what I recall, what I remember hearing was that it wasn't for the military but for an ambulance unit or something? Anyway... I can't tell you exactly. But what I do recall from the "Walt" documentary was forgery on paperwork regarding the military and seeing the visual of not only the paperwork, but his cartoon-ized ambulance with his drawings on the backside canopy.
Like I said, *very* close :) Actually, he was *one day* short of completing his goal. Bad weather prevented the explorer from reaching the summit of Mt. Everest.
Again, real close. It was for a Red Cross unit stationed in France, just a short time before the Allies pulled out of France. He was only there for three short months.
For the "Francesco Bernoulli" question, what I was looking for was the "Formula 1" circuit. All of the race cars in the World Grand Prix represent a different form of racing: Lightning McQueen: American stock car racing, Jeff Corvette: American sports car racing; there's also world sports car racing and rally racing represented.
Which brings me to my next question... Richard Petty Driving Experience? :funny:
On a Cars related note, have you been to Cars Land yet? My favourite car from the film is defiantly Doc Hudson. Really a shame that Paul Newman passed away before he could record his dialogue for the Radiator Springs Racers attraction. However, Corey Burton defiantly does him justice.
Have NOT been out to Disneyland yet, but definitely on my bucket list :) Oh - and coincidentally, Doc's my fave, too....because of the "NASCAR"/racing history he represents. It *is* true that a Hudson Hornet won three straight NASCAR championships in '52, '53, and '54.
Here are some more teasers :mickey:
1) "Home on the Range" was renamed from what prior to its release?
2) What links "Home on the Range" and "The Princess and the Frog"?
3) Typhoon Lagoon holds which record?
4) What is the name of the train that transports the circus in "Dumbo"?
5) In 1988, Minnie Mouse sang which song as a duet with Reginald Dwight?
Sweatin' Bullets.
The last two hand-drawn (traditional) animated Disney feature films.
World's largest outdoor wave pool.
Casey Junior.
Don't Go Breakin' My Heart.
That set lasted for a entire 57 minutes!
They must have been way too easy!
FYI: Reginald Dwight is Sir Elton John
1) What distinction does the Matterhorn attraction at Disneyland hold in terms of industry standards?
2) What Disney attraction music could be heard in the first edition of the Main Street Electrical Parade at Walt Disney World?
3) Who narrated the opening sequence of the Share a Dream Come True parade for Walt Disney World's 100 Years of Magic?
4) What is the top speed of the Mark VI Monorail system at Walt Disney World?
5) What two cities are incorporated into the Walt Disney World property?
6) At Walt Disney World, where can you have "wild stick-horse races" during dinner?
7) What was the name of the upstairs "playground" at the Imagination pavilion at EPCOT?
8) How long was the Haunted Mansion attraction in development before opening in August, 1969?
9) What attraction's theme song makes an "appearance" in Disney's Meet the Robinsons?
10) What was the original concept behind Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room?
First tubular-steel roller coaster.
I'm going to say Celebration and Golden Oak.
Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress' "Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow", or at least it was on the soundtrack. I don't remember it in the film though. Maybe in the credits? All I know for sure is that it was re-recorded by the group, They Might Be Giants.
The only real Disney Park reference I remember was the appearance of "Yesterdayland" or "Tomorrowland" by our standards. It included glimpses of Space Mountain and the classic spinning rocket ride.
It was to be a restaurant, but things kept getting added and added and it dawned on Walt one day, that "this really oughta be a show". And that's when the award-winning Sherman Brothers (and talents such as Wally Boag, Thurl Ravenscroft, etc.) were brought on to thread it all together... so the story goes. :tikki:
