Test Track wait times
EPCOT, Walt Disney World · typical posted waits from our own wait log, updated daily
What it is
Design your own concept car, then ride it through a series of tests that finish with a fast loop around the outside of the building. Fast but smooth: no drops or loops.
Thrill level: Moderate (3/5) · high speed · must be 40 in (102 cm) or taller
Opened: 17 March 1999 (27 years ago)
Best time to ride
Quietest: around 8am (typically ~35 min posted). Busiest: around 11am (~75 min). In the first 15 minutes after the park opens it typically posts ~35 min.
Typical means the median posted wait across every day in our log at that hour; crowd level, weather and breakdowns move it. For a specific date, the planner adjusts for that day’s forecast crowd.

Posted vs real wait
Disney’s posted waits run high. For Test Track, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 47 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 32 (from timed waits people recorded, 2015–2021 — before today’s Lightning Lane system, so treat it as an estimate). DisneyIQ shows both numbers on the live board.
Did you know?
At around 65 mph on the outdoor loop, it is the fastest ride at Walt Disney World.
It was built in the old World of Motion pavilion and was reimagined again in 2025.
