Completely agree with this! Happy if it is true that it is replacing the speedway but doesn't necessarily fit with the theme, the "sugar rush" rumour would be better suited here I think!

I haven't been on the ride but it looks more twisty and turny than big drops, think it would be more of a thrill ride due to the speed than anything! (I also don't do drops - even though I love TOT

)

Have not heard whole thread but agree Speedway is dated and not very environmentally friendly, like the trams!

Would have liked them to have done something Cars related. Cars sadly missing in Florida, unless they have something planned?

The Tron ride is about 60 seconds long from acceleration to braking at the end, not long but reported to be good.

Probably in a minority, but going electric would really spoil the speedway. The sounds and smells from the engine are part of the fun!

Epcot has plans that haven't been leaked/released yet.

Is the TTA definitely safe? Hope so. C of P, too.
