- Check out This HD POV of Test Track at Disney's Epcot at Walt Disney World (WDW) in Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
Complete Experience: • [ EPCOT ] Test Track 1...
Test Track closed for refurbishment on April 15, 2012, and re-opened on December 6, 2012. It is now sponsored by the Chevrolet brand instead of General Motors as a whole. Guests now design their own car in the Chevrolet Design Studio. Then they board a "Sim-Car" and are taken through the "digital" testing ground of the "SimTrack". Throughout the ride, guests see how their designs performed in each test. After the ride, guests can see how their car did overall, film a commercial, race their designs, and have a picture taken with their own virtually designed vehicle with a chosen backdrop in the background.
However, 2.0 also eventually bit the dust in favor of 3.0. Every roughly 10 years, Chevrolet (GM) allows Disney to retheme and rework the attraction. So on September 9, 2023, it was announced on the Disney Parks Blog that Test Track would be receiving another retheming, said to be inspired by the original World of Motion attraction. Further concept art was released on April 5, 2024 with a scheduled closure date of June 17, 2024.

Imagine not pulling on the yellow strap and looking at her dead straight in the eye and saying no and the car just leaves
Then they hit the emergency stop.
No More Honor Killings 😂😂😂😂
It’s to check the seatbelt so if you don’t and it’s malfunctioning u a dead man
I've done this. They didn't realize I did it.
They won't let the car go if they don't pull on it
Hey guys. I think you’re supposed to pull on the yellow strap
Are you sure?
No....
No.. really? 🤦♀️
Yeah…
Pull on the, and I cannot stress this enough, *yellow strap*
What kind of name is that 😂😂😂
@@ryanmoves462 What kinda name is that you have? Are you a Knight?
What if the strap was orange?
@@Roc790 uh heck yeah
no he is not ur husband, loser
The og’s remember this test track
@Jennifer Hanz They killed it, its like the Tesla truck. Meh.
Nash Landsparger good or bad?
@@cxrbajal1994 Its not bad, but its not the glorious ride it used to be.
It’s just a big ad now. I was only 8 when I rode the original before they changed it :(
@@jewishmcloin1933 New version is way better
I remember that truck scaring the shit out of me😂
Yeah the truck scared the shit out of me. I was like dying 😂.
BUNNYS ARE SO CUTE Time?
XxLukeEngland2xX RBLX huh?
HondaMoto14 I have been on the newer one and I believe it is louder and its all funky lighting
Was it liquid diarrhea?
Some say she’s still pulling on the yellow strap to this day
Thanos lmao
Lmao 🤣🤣💀💀
No....they got rid of her in the redesign
Cannot overstate how much more enjoyable this version was than what they have now.
When did they change it? And what is it like now? I rode it in 2009, so I'm pretty sure I rode this version.
@@blueflare3848 2018 I believe
The new version is completely lost on me, it's just screens and neon lights and completely lacking in any character or relevance. You come out of thinking "what the hell was that" whereas this had so much more relevance. One of the worst mistakes Disney made i.m.o.
@@wyattwilliams2457 It was sadly December 2012 I think. Almost 10 years since this gem went
100% agree!
I love this version a lot more than the new one. It’s just so much easier to know what’s happening and to truly envision yourself in a car testing facility.
How is it in the new version?
@@91137732I’ve only been on the newer one but it’s fun for the neon
Legend says that lady is still saying pull on the yellow
S T R A P
PULL ON THE STRAP, PUSH DOWN YOUR LAP BARS, BUCKLE THE YELLIW STRAP, man that was a bother 😂😂😂😂
She literally is xD
How rude is that lady
@@travelkid1220 Ikr!!
Honestly with Florida drivers, this ride just felt like a regular ride on any Florida highway.
No way! The ride wasn't even close to the thrills and terrors of driving I-4 to Disneyworld. Compared to I-4, this ride is like a kiddy coaster, something you'd fall asleep on. Boring!! 😴
Fully agree. You don't need the highways in Orlando. You can easily do 80 mph on 436 at night into the early hours. Take the 417 and see what your cart can really do. Test track doesn't even come close to actual Florida driving.
cx xcc
Luke Lemmons damn SO TRUE!!!!!
Or any Ontario freeway.
I really have to thank you for having this up. I have a lot of nostalgia for this version of test track--not that the new one isn't great!--but being able to 'ride through' this version just warms my heart and puts a smile on my face.
This ride wasn’t quite as intense as an adult than it felt like as a kid 15 years ago, but it’s still a blast and I’ll always love it
HEY YOU!
PULL YOUR YELLOW STRAP.
Karson Williams but which one is yellow? 😩I don’t know my colors...

I read "hey you" like the Pink Floyd song
I miss this version so much. The new one is just boring. This one was actually educational which matched the theme (or what used to be the theme) of EPCOT. I loved the jerky stops during the braking and end portion and the sound they made
Wow I forgot it used to look like this
Uh... the track is the same.... and the braking at the end hurt...... so........ yeah
Yes!! :( I would always ride it over and over again in single rider line when I was little. Now I can’t really stand it
The next version will be a shitty frozen ride
Damn they changed it? I haven’t rode on this since 2010
I remember being on this ride and thinking that we were gonna run straight into that wall, 9 year old me was terrified lol, but it was so fun
Woman: PULL ON THE YELLOW STRAP!!!
Me: I am Steve Rodgers.
I think the lady wants them to put on the yellow strap. I'm not sure, she might have to say it again.
😂😂😂
she wants them to pull the yellow strap to see if their seat belts are working properly.
jayblade2000 maybe it's the red strap she wants us to pull
Shmoopdogg Gaming or the green one.

This ride was honestly just like driving

R.I.P. to this version of Test Track. I was so disappointed when I went back and rode the "updated" version. :(
Same
Beau Masano sammeee it used to be my favorite but idk now
What’s the difference? I thought it’s just ride on that road at 100MPH? What changed??
wh00wie the entire track itself is exactly the same.. but the whole ambiance of the ride, visuals, effects and everything else about it completely changed. It used to all be set up like a crash test facility. Look up a ride-on of the old General Motors Test track.
@@beauknowss I recently went to Disney for the first time. I never knew it changed. TBH, looking at this, I would've preferred the old one. Now, it has this odd futuristic atheistic. It's not horrible, but the old one looks really cool.
I remember riding this version as a kid! Now that I am safety engineer at an automotive company I miss it so much more. The theming is incredible and many aspects looks just like buildings I've walked through myself at work!
For me, Ive grown up to becoming a mechanic. To walk through the line to see all the props and such would be so cool. Hands down the best line queue to ever exist in a ride. Nothing was more exciting than seeing a dummy get smacked in the face and a bunch of cars everywhere lol
All these POV videos make all the rides look a lot slower and extreme than they actually are. The inside part is a lot more violent and the outside part is actually very fast.
OwnageCubed very true. I rode this recently so I know what it is like.
Agreed.
The outside part is by far the fastest ride i've ever rode. It was awesome
True the outside part is actually one of the fastest coasters there is.
My knees still hurt!
rode this at night and when the doors opened there were fireworks, it looked really cool
TheBirthOfJackie *DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING OUT CORALINE JONES*
Great timing
Kermea The Frog too late, looks like Coraline Jones already went out to Epcot;)
Same thing happened to me
No didnt stop lying for attention
Last night I dreamt I was at Disneyland & a voice came into my dream and said words I will never forget as long as I live. It said...
Pull on the yellow strap
This is technically the CARS RIDE JUST IN REAL CAR LIKE
But it was built before it 😏
@@Furnotic who?
And it's better
scorchgaming theming is much better on cars lol
But it’s better and less movie
I'm a grown ass man and I would love to take a ride on that that's the coolest ride I've seen.
It’s not as good they have modified totally different futuristic feeling now
DANNY M Original Disneyland , California...
CARS LAND , RADIATOR SPRINGS IS THE BEST !
Mark Sommers we ain’t flying to Cali
@Connor Barreto how do you know? Are you Ray Charles?
@Misty Whispers I hear the car part that drives outside gets to like 60 or 65 mph? I've driven at 85 mph in my car on the highway before, soooo is it the banked track that makes it more intense? I just imagine it being like as if I were driving my car. Still, it looks fun as all hell :D
I remember this ride being extremely fun, but it looks so boring in this video. I think my only complaint is that the actual fast part outside was waaaay too short.
How are you not scared with butterflies in your stomach?
@@MisterUrbanWorld it's an amazing ride, I'd be surprised if you are actually nervous about this ride.
@@memesy8622 I'm scared of roller coasters, the boat ride that swings back and forth,etc anything thst drops or gives you stomach butterflies
@@MisterUrbanWorld alr but what does etc mean tho?
It's been corrected now it crashes 80 mph into a wall and you die but none goes on it again.
All those giggles, at least somebody was having fun. 😂
The best ride ever!!
You’ve obviously never ridden a RMC
No it wasn’t it was trash tbh I’ve been on way better
??? it's trash. It's such a lazy design, sad that it even exists and people pay to ride it.
Ya wanna know what’s better than this ride?
Radiator springs racers is.
no just no
After a side by side comparison, I have to say that this version was way better. The sense of realism during the tests adds to the experience. The new version makes it all feel simulated. They may have well made it a TRON themed ride.
Happy to se the old version still out there
The better one
+Connor Hinson Yeah :( and they made a dumb idea of changing iy
Connor Hinson same just I like and don't like the car building bc it takes longer
Jaren Tavss Hey! They changed it to look more realistic!
I could FEEL the heat room so clearly lmao I went in July like a moron 😂
Ember Lea heat chamber scares me because of the sound when it turns on
That's basically how heat chambers r
You have to slap, you have to put that seat belt across your lap, but importantly...
**PULL ON THE YELLOW STRAP**
in the test rooms i was like
TAKE ME OUT OF THE HEAT ROOM AND KEEP ME IN THE COLD ROOM TILL WINTER COMES
Cynthia Lightningstar same
They changed the aesthetics of the ride now. It's just a big advertisement for Chevy now.
It was always a Chevy ad
Tiger Diesel engine
Yea. I do like all the neon stuff and car building stuff. But not the chevy stuff
I like the new experience more. Being able to design your own car, and then have it compete with others, PLUS it being a newer modern thrill dark ride, makes it great.
Man this ride never gets old.
Never rode this version so I was kinda shocked watching it and this looks way better.
Who else misses the old Test Track design before it all became modern?
I never saw it before. This was the first time I saw it. I could understand if you rode it like this than you like it more, personally though I like the newer one more. I feel like it makes stuff more unexpected cause you can't see the track. Ik when I rode it recently I had no idea what was about to happen and I felt like I was actually gonna hit the 18 wheeler
SansyBoy 14
You have a good point. I pretty much like both designs the same
What are you talking about? It was always like this
me
I like the old one better too, remember when they out you in the room and had you watch the video?
This was my favourite ride at epcot
Mine too
Same
Yeah
Do you have to brake for real?
+Madison Beckham no
This was my favorite ride from like 10 years ago! I remember the weather conditions test and the outside and the dashboard said you were going something like 200 or 300 mph. It was fun!
This ride used to look like this when I first went on it in 2009, i was only 5 years old and I used to be terrified!! Now this ride was completely changed in like 2013 and it kinda looked futuristic, but not too exciting anymore. This is soo nostalgic!!
I used to loooove this ride so much. I'm really sad they changed it :(
My wife and did our first visit to EPCOT in July 1998. The Test Track was new, but not operating while we were there - computer bugs, I believe.
So, five years later, we were there again on 4th July and it was open. We joined the queue and were in the car in 25 minutes. The real fun part was to break down halfway around the steeply-curving track outside ( 3:56 ) and sit there for five minutes, at an angle of forty-six degrees, while a recorded voice told us that this was an unscheduled stop and please remain in the car. The car behind us had also stopped - and a good thing too, or it would have run into the back of us - but we couldn’t see any ahead. For all we knew, we were the first in the line.
After a couple of minutes, the little boy - about five or six - in the back seat, beside his father, and who was having a great time, started giving me cheek. I was sitting in the driver’s seat and he kept saying, “Hey driver! Get going!” I said I couldn’t because they hadn’t given me a steering wheel.
The teenager on the outside of my wife had a walkie-talkie and all we heard from him was “Mom! Dad! We’re stuck!” Mom/Dad never replied...
The car got going again and we finished the run at high speed around the front of the building and back inside. As we pulled up and started to unbuckle, staff invited us to stay put and go around again to make up for the breakdown. Of course we all said yes and around we went again, this time without stopping. Whee!
We enjoyed the ride, but an even better one was waiting for us next door at the brand-new Mission: Space, which had been specially opened for a July 4 preview.
MarsFKA I too have been stuck on this thing. In 2007 I was stuck for an hour in the same location as you were with a very British family. I ended up talking to them about my home state of Michigan. That was more enjoyable than this ride.
No one cares
mars I was there the year after you in 1999, and it worked but I remember my Dad saying how stupid it was hahaha. The funny thing is I liked it then. I remember there was some kind of Daytona 500 Nascar movie we watched at an IMAX right after that or on the same day. Funny, I wonder if it has changed at all or not since I last was there.
Thank you for this awesome video! Nothing will ever beat the original ride!
This Test Track at Epcot bring back old memories
Hello, Im from Argentina, since i was 4 years old, I have always wanted to visit Disney Word in Florida, my first day was in Epcot, thanks for this video!, January 2012, I will never forget you!
I think you mean disney world. Disney Land is in California, United States.
Oh Yes! you are right dude, thanks
I went to Disney for a field trip and I got but hurt that I couldn't get to ride test track so I ate two turkey legs and threw up
that sounds like something that would happen to me lmao 😂😂
My kind of experience at Disney but Mickey pretzels instead of turkey 😂😂😂
You are funny no offence
The ride had too long of a wait time (over an hour) and my dad didn’t want to wait. So I didn’t get to ride it. 😭
Thoose darn teachers!!! Yw
Me when I see the video: Yea I’ll ride that
Me when I’m actually going in line: *nope* *nope* *nope* *nope*
It’s not as scary as it seems
this was me with Everest
It’s so much fun I wasn’t scared and I’m 9 so
It doesn’t seem to scary, there are no big drops or anything.
Yea my mom wanted to ride a coaster with me and the whole time I screamed let me off
This brings me back memories. EPCOT is underated
Went on this a few years ago. I remember the place with the lights being uncomfortably hot, but this was one great ride.
However the first and only time I ever rode it, I remember going through and looking forward to the speed part. The intensity building up as we neared the wall. WILL WE CRASH? I thought. This wasn't good.
However thankfully the doors opened at the last second to a SWIRLING MONSOON OF RAIN AND WIND TORRENTING IN EVERY WHICH WAY. I'll never forget the terror of dodging the RAINDROPS going 70+ MPH in an out of control car with a barely functional windshield.
One of my fondest memories actually...
Lol
Oh and that was also back when destination space wasn't crap.
I personally don't mind them updating the ride, the competitive designing and such is cute, and yeah I agree the design makes me think of Tron too. But what broke my heart about the new design was the destruction of the experience Before the ride. The elements of learning what goes into making and testing out the cars we drive. I thought that was the best and was looking forward to showing my husband that part of the ride most of all( I'm his wife using his account). The machines, dummy testing, videos of crash tests, and plaques at each machine telling you what they do and why was both fun and educational for kids and adults alike. It's heartbreaking. I was lucky to experience it before they remodeled everything. RIP Test Track 1.0, you will be sorely missed.
I was there in 2009 and enjoyed all the educational part
Fr I miss this version of test track just came back from Disney last week it’s not as good still love the ride just miss this version of it
0:33
*_PUL UN DA JALOW STRAPP_*
Edit: she should also wear that red rotating lights thing on their head so she would look like a crappy noise ambulance
Ahh this brings back so many good memories! My favorite part when I was a kid was the hot & cold chamber!
I feel like everybody is riding on the same bandwagon of bringing back the old test track, but the purpose of epcot is to showcase the future. Although the old test track was far more educational and fit the name better, this test track offers more interactiveness (which is up and coming with every new ride). The change was needed because the ride was outdated and wasn't practical in Walts vision of epcot. Best way of saying it, disney world isn't a museum so it's not gonna have your childhood classics there every time you visit. It's always gonna be changing.
well said.
Plus their contract with GM ended lol
The queue line was the best in to old TT
Plus, when Test Track was built, electronic anti-lock brakes were the new-fangled thing that was the way of the future of driving whereas nowadays, it's about balancing fuel efficiency and power.
A rat cooking is part of the future I guess
This had the potential to be a great Cars themed ride.
no
Scott Anders Stfu
Absolutely not
Honestly it wouldn't be a good Cars theme, because it is testing your ability to build a car. When you go in to build your car before the actual ride starts you put how much turbo you want, how much brakes, how big the tires are, the design of the car. So I don't see how that could relate to Cars.
D3rpfac3
love how thorough the concept explaination is in the description!!
After going on the OG Test Track once back in '07 and the redone version several times, it's nice to see the original ride again.
one of my favorite rides ;D
edit from a year later: i honestly dont remember making this comment, but i clearly didnt watch the video cuz i have never been on the ride when it looked like this
Pull the yellow strap 😂😂😂
guess what?

U r mean
LOL. Awesome. 😂
This is one of my FAVORITE rides at Disney World.
You never experience being a test track dummy anywhere else in the world, haha. Good memories = )
I ride this around 2006ish - haven’t been back. It was really cool but even back then “ABS” simulation felt very outdated :D
Thanks for the upload - brought back a lot of memories :)
I remember taking this version of the ride a year before it closed for the revamp. Honestly this one has a more real feel to it than the somewhat unrealistic version that replaced the old one.
THAT RIDE IS SUPER COOL! And so fast btw
I loved the original test track, been there countless of times. Just recently went last week to epcot, and version 2.0 is not soo bad. Though the IIHS style testing facility is pretty awesome, after many years, it needs to be updated. Disney is now making their rides and waiting queues more interactive. The physical layout of the track is pretty much the same, but now you can compete with each other on board whose vehicle design is more powerful, fuel efficient, etc.
Though it sucks that new people won't be able to experience to be an IIHS test dummy, the new version is as well made.
The track layout, the speed of the cars is the same as the old one
Went on it many times about 10 years ago... loved it.
I loved this ride, so much fun
Yo, I was watching this randomly, thinking I had never been on this ride... I went to Epcot once, probably 16 years ago in 3rd grade, but I didn't remember much about going there... And seeing that Truck "almost" hit the rider totally brought me a flashback of that exact moment when I was on the ride (The scariest & my favorite part) --And suddenly all the memories came back!
Pretty cool you were able to do that for me with your video. :)
For my birthday my grandparents took me to Disney World for the first time, first plane ride, and first time ever being in America, anyways I loved this ride so much I went on it like 6 times. For those who have not been on the ride after there's a show room where there's a tons of real life cars you can take a look at I was at the back of this SUV and two girls hopped in without noticing me, I scared the crap out of both of them and ended up taking pictures with them. Fun experience after all and I would love to go back there.

I miss this test track omgggg thank you for this
This video does not do the ride justice. I never rode the original, but I just went a couple of weeks ago and rode the Tron-like version and I was NOT prepared for how fast it was inside. I was holding on for dear life on the hill climb! The video made it look like a typical dark ride experience until the 65 MPH outside, but there was a lot of unexpected intensity inside too.
Fact!!
This ride was sooo fun!
I remember this ride! I went there on Tuesday, March 3rd 2020 with my 7th grade class.
Thank you for this video I really do miss the old version, I miss that it was so different, like it had the charm of looking and feeling like you were actually on a test track, testing a car now it's just another ride in the bunch
Disney tends to change or shut down the most loved attractions (Pirates of the Caribbean, Main Street Electrical Parade), and keep the boring ones (It's A Small World). I went to EPCOT only once, and consider myself fortunate that I rode this version of Test Track.
I wonder how many million dollars they spent to make this sleep stimulator.
+MAarshall LMAO exactly.... what a bore.
Have you ever been on this ride? It's really fun actually
+Kaitlyn Pflieger ikr I loved it!
What a boring ride.
The real sleep simulator is its a small world
Man I loved this ride! I went on it twice in a row when I was there in '99.
***** It was new at the time. I believe it was about a month after it opened.
A couple years ago when I rode this the line was around 2 and half hours long haha, but it was worth it I loved it
This is one of my favorite rides it was alot of fun I can't wait to ride test track 2.0
The barrier test used to get me every time. I’d always worry that the door wouldn’t open in time, and something would go horribly wrong.
This is the real Test Track. I really dislike the new one.
Vinny B same, it doesn't give me that childhood vibe. Had they not changed it, I would've had a serious nostalgia trip today when I rode it.
Vinny B I like the old one, too, but it's has aged kinda badly :(
Vinny B i liked the one
Vinny B I liked the old one too.
Vincent Belotti I agree with you, but i have to admit that the current version fits into future world a lot better than the old version did. Not to mention it was becoming quite dated. I still miss the original to this day as it was part of my childhood but nothing lasts forever.
I just went to Epcot back in July and I remember going on this ride back in like 2003-2007 I can't remember exactly when it was but I will always love this ride I just wish they didn't update it. That barrier test was one of my favorite parts and I don't think they had it anymore you just go straight outside.
Can't wait to ride this next year.
I have been on it ,it was amazing .
best ride in Epcot hands down
When I went to Disney World, this ride was closed :( living vicariously through this now
One of my favorite rides of all time.
You know, I often don't understand why people are complaining about the updated version. Atleast the didn't turn it into a Pixar cars film. Of course, I'm gonna miss this old version, but I think the new version is as good as the other. I rarely like ride changes, but this is by far the only change that I'm ok with.
Chao Flaka hu
Radiator Springs Racers is way better than this shit!! Not sure what you are talking about!!

I wish I could go to Disney World and experience this. It must be nice to ride at night.
This is the old version. The new one looks more futuristic.
Third time lucky, hopefully we get to ride this when we come back next month, looks brill
I’m not a person that likes rides, but I took a chance in this one and really enjoyed it...the speed once you get outside is phenomenal!
I went on the newer version of the ride! Orlando is gorgeous!
Why do Disney world got to be so damn expensive.
See... THIS is how Test Track SHOULD be! Not this all Futuristic Crap like it is now
true
Jeez are you 90
Nope. I’m a fan of Originality
