Today marks the last day for two Disney park experiences, one on each coast...
Over at Walt Disney World, the original version of the fantastic Epcot attraction Test Track is closing to be refurbished into the new Chevrolet Design Center. It'll be the same type of ride, possibly even still called Test Track, but it will be an update for the 21st century. While the original version of the ride didn't open until late 1998, it was actually supposed to open a year and a half earlier. Design work had begun in the early 90s and World of Motion, the previous attraction in the General Motors pavilion, closed in January 1996. So while there was absolutely nothing wrong with the original version, it'll be nice to see how they can improve the attraction in 2012.
And back on my home coast, ElecTRONica at Disney California Adventure is finally ending its year and a half long run tonight. The popularity of the TRON themed dance party blew away Disney's expectations, and the run was extended again and again. Now while it's still very cool, I think it definitely has run its course. Disney does have a replacement lined up though: The Mad T Party. And from the looks of it, I think we'd be better off with more ElecTRONica...
