I did like at one point, I think around the 5:20 mark, you can hear someone on the ride saying "What the hell?"

And they included it so that they get the pre-show audio into the thing (which is something you can't really simulate in a videogame). But yeah, there is a long queue area for the ride filled with crash-test dummy displays and similar stuff. With the FastPass and single rider line, it usually goes by pretty quickly; I think 15 minutes was the longest I ever had to wait last summer. You can tell from the real video, that Test Track is like a combination of a dark ride with a high-speed section at the end. You go about 65 miles an hour, and it loops around the building. It's a lot of fun. And I'm looking forward to going to Disneyland (hence the Disney-related post), but seeing that video has seriously got me jonesing to go back to Disney World. I'd thought I was completely burned out on it, but I already want to go back. And stay at the Polynesian. Er, the entire video, including the ride and the kids’ title screens, is 7 minutes long.

Is it really that long??? As for the ride itself, I think it's something I would like since it doesn't do any loops or crazy dips. I think my ideal roller coaster would just be going really fast in a straight line. Which is kind of what the ride down to Disneyland on I-5 is like, come to think of it. DISNEYLAND!!!
