You will spend your whole 5 minutes at the design station agonizing over making the perfect car, only to have it lose big time in every test to some hot pink fingerpainting of a Disney Princess Minivan that some small child designed by just punching the touchscreen a bunch of times and picking their favorite color.

I went to Epcot when they were building the new ride, and riding an Audi R8 V10 was my highlight of the trip. Nothing else really got my attention. I went all the way to Orlando for disappointment, it's shameful.

well, I had a thorough and enjoyable conversation with one of the GM reps afterwards in the showroom. we spoke about the extreme notchyness in the Camaro manual shifter and then the lack of manual availability in the SS sedan

I rode the go karts in one park. Tommorow land speedway. It sucked. you dont even have to steer. I did it like this guy and halfway round just let it slam back and forth on the rail as it went around. People were laughing at me thinking I was retarded or something.

Well I drank a whole bunch of tequila and walked to fake Norway and got pushed down a waterfall by trolls.

was that like the exotic driving experience at the speedway or something, because to me that seemed like a lot of money for 6 laps and under 6 minutes of driving.

Yes, it was a rip-off, like everything in the vicinity, I had the most fun in the car, and it was the best price for the performance.

I was there on the first day that the ride opened. We got there late, and the line time was literally six hours. No thank you.

I was bummed, but I'm not nearly as bummed now that you mention this.
