Riders on this attraction take on the role of a test driver for General Motors. Your responsibilities include testing new models of automobiles while they’re still in the concept phase. Get ready to buckle up and travel along bumpy terrain, through hairpin turns, into freezing cold chambers, and along 50-degree banked curves at speeds up to 65 miles per hour.

There is a 40" height requirement for this ride.

 

Age: Attraction Review: ages 2-4 Young children who do meet the height requirement generally like Test Track, as it mostly uses speed for excitement rather than intense drops or turns. ages 5-10 This ride is one of the most popular rides for kids in Epcot ages 11-15 This ride is one of the most popular rides for pre-teens and teens in Epcot ages 16-adult This ride is one of the most popular rides for adults in Epcot senior citizens Those concerned about motion sickness should note that Test Track is not a roller coaster. There is a section at the end where the cars drive quite fast, but it is mostly for the sensation of speed and it is not nearly as intense a roller coaster.

When to Visit

Test Track attracts some of the longest lines in Epcot. To avoid them, ride Test Track in the first hour the park is open (right after Soarin') or in the last hour the park is open. You can also obtain a FASTPASS.

FASTPASS

While Soarin' usually runs out of FASTPASS tickets first, Test Track is not usually far behind. Quite often Test Track is out of FASTPASS by early afternoon, so arrive early to avoid missing out.

Single Rider Line

A third option presented at Test Track is the single rider line. Guests in the single rider line fill up the extra seats that are left over from the stand-by and FASTPASS lines. Because of this, riders are seperated from their group and sit with strangers. This option can cut your wait time in half, but be prepared to be split up.
