Popular Attraction Closes Early for the Third Day in a Row: What’s Going On?

If you have visited EPCOT at Walt Disney World, you most likely have ridden Test Track. This is a thrill ride but not too intense, so Guests with different excitement levels can enjoy it.

 

You hopefully could ride early if you have had been to this theme park the past three days. Although EPCOT is scheduled to close at 9 pm Test Track has been closing two and a half hours earlier at 6:30pm. It is also scheduled to close early today, February 3.

According to the My Disney Experience App Test Track, it is currently closed, but hopefully, it will reopen at some point during the day.

The early closure is thought to be routine maintenance, but Disney has not given any official information. Although it is frustrating, routine maintenance is necessary to keep everything safe and looking its best.

According to the official Walt Disney World website, Test Track’s hours on February 4 are listed from 10 am to 9 pm, unlike today, February 3, which is 10 am to 6:30 pm.

If you plan on riding Test Track, make sure you are at least forty inches tall or more. You have six passengers all buckled up in your “SIM Car” and then it’s time to go on an adventure.

You go through obstacles and maneuver back and forth, including going through inclement weather and a 50 degree angle. This attraction reaches a speed of 65 miles an hour.

 

You can design your own virtual car and see how your car performs on the scoreboard. This is a great way to be creative and have an adventure at the same time.

If you have not ridden Test Track since 2012, it looks very different. It went through an entire refurbishment, including theming changes. Although the track is still the same, it feels like a completely different ride.
