Experience the action-packed world of auto testing as you climb aboard a six-passenger Test Track vehicle and race up bumpy terrain, roar through hairpin turns, speed into freezing cold chambers and speed onto 50-degree banked curves at 65 miles per hour!
Opened at Epcot in 1998 (after a long series of delays) and sponsored by General Motors, the 5½-minute Test Track ride is very popular and draws long lines but FASTPASS is available for this attraction. Test Track lies in Future World at the former site of World of Motion, just North of Mission: SPACE. For souvenirs, check out the Test Track Specialty Shop, which is located at the Text Track exit.
Height Restriction: You must be at least 40 inches tall to ride Test Track. Also check out the warning signs at the entrance to the ride for detailed information about health restrictions.
