Walt Disney Imagineering has filed another new construction permit for the Test Track 3.0 project at Walt Disney World's EPCOT.

This latest permit filing is with Spitz, a Disney vendor that previously worked with WDI on EPCOT's Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind project in World Discovery.

Although the permit does not specify the scope of the work beyond "Install set elements," Pennsylvania-based Spitz specializes in providing projection dome screens for planetariums and giant-screen cinemas.

As with previous permits for Test Track, the default 12-month expiration period has not been extended, suggesting that the reimagining project may be completed within a year.

We expect to hear more about the latest version of Test Track at the upcoming D23 event in California.

    They've decided to line the entire loop with foam in case there's another malfunction.

    Make sure the gym has stair stepper machine. Bob's fanboys are very proud of him being able to work out with the stair stepper.

    i really cannot get over how great the score is for this ride. i love how it syncs up especially during the joyride segment with the little dip. even the first lift is great! I'm really excited to ride again next week and hopefully go Easter egg hunting
