The reimagining of Test Track at EPCOT continues to move forward as Walt Disney Imagineering has filed another permit for the project this week.

The new permit is to “Install Signage” and has been assigned to Design Communications Ltd (DCL), a company known for its expertise in creating custom signage, environmental graphics, and experiential elements.


Most of the visible work is happening at the front of the building, with extensive scaffolding around the new curved entrance structure that replaces the former fabric canopy.


About the Reimagined Test Track

Presented by General Motors, the reimagined Test Track is set to open in late summer 2025 and will celebrate more than a century of mobility innovation. The attraction will feature a new queue with six distinct exhibits, updated ride scenes focusing on onboard technology and personalization, and an exhilarating outdoor route designed to evoke the timeless thrill of the open road.

    I guess it was authentic in a way since the wood was once in a forest.

    There was a forest scene?

    We don’t actually know the extent of it. We know the forest scene was gutted and rebuilt, that’s about it

    Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t this ride completely gutted on the inside ?? So any sets we see are brand new built from scratch ???

    AP's were sent an email a month before our previews of TBA last year giving dates and info. May was the email and mid June was preview's, I think it opened shortly after that.

    What's surprising to me is that with LEDs they can create all kinds of unique light fixtures yet they come up with designs that look like fluorescent fixtures from 50 years ago.
