That video is very brill raptor!  :D  I can't wait to ride it and meet Luigi & Guido in 2008, But too bad I have to wait to Christmas 2008. :-({|=  

BTW, I don't like Mater's speaking in french, he sounds like an regalur man with a crokey voice  :roll: , It's easy of contacting with Larry because I've met him before while I was seeing Cars on the red carpet and he was there.  :lol:

Hehe, the video is cool - looks like a real fun ride, like on a country fair or something ;)

Is it "easy" to become sick on the ride? And: it seems to be very short. Will it always be that short or was it just for the soft opening like that??

Maybe that's why no one got sick?  :lol:  

I don't like those spinning attractions at all, but I managed fine with Cars Race Rally.

Great video. The attraction seems to be very high quality. The only thing that bugs me is, since they have 2 figure-of-eight turntables, why couldn't they join them all up? Joining them all up would mean that your car travels across 4 turntables, instead of just 2. In my opinion, this would create an even better ride.

How'd you cope with Crush then Raptor?  :sick:

Would it have bee possible to link all four turn tables together? It would have been really cool if they had, but I am looking forward to going on it anyway.

I was wondering if the ride was kept short to aviod REALLY REALLY UNBEARABLY LONG queues instead of just REALLY REALLY long queues!

I'd hoped they'd do this when we first heard the plans too, it would have certainly added a bit more depth to the ride.  But although it sounds simple enough for us to just say "couldn't they join them up?", we don't know the ride mechanics - it might have been too complicated/too expensive to do it.  If it was a choice between this and the detailed themeing, I think they made the right choice.  We should be glad they gave us a 2 pairs at least, rather than the single version at TDS and DCA.

And raptor's video is without doubt the most hilarious on-ride I've ever seen! Do you know some of the people in another car, or were they just really really enjoying it? lol

Well, just got back from a fab trip to DLRP and we got to try the new cars ride on Wednesday (30th May)

OK, so it's aimed at kids... but it's still great fun for grown ups.

The figure of 8 across two turntables creates some great "are we going to crash" moments and the little ones just scream in delight.

It lasts just long enough for the kids to want to go again, the grown ups not to feel too sick and, if you're mechanically minded, to be really impressed on how the ride works.

Well done Disney - another great ride, superb attention to detail!

I know this "may" not be about the ride but here are my favourite Cars characters:

Mater, Lightning, Fillmore, Guido, The King, Ramone, Luigi, Sally, Doc & Sheriff.

Did anyone find the idden Mickey? This one is not so easy. I found it cause a friend of line working there told me other wise I would never spot it.
