Yeah - apart from the nasty fonts and weird french/english mixture, that visual just doesn't tell you anything or make you get excited about anything.  All it shows is that the attraction is based on Cars... which the logo itself shows.  Is it actually an official poster?! :?

I'm starting to wonder - considering how DLRP is so ambiguously marketing this attraction so far (look back at the very vague creative text for more), will people who arrive in June 2007 be disappointed?

Quatre Roues Rallye is the official name for the attraction, the use of the English name has to be reduced to a minimum.

Really?  That's bad!  Can French people not guess at the words "race" and "rally"?  This is nearly as ugly as Armageddon: "Les Effets Speciaux" or Rock 'n' Roller Coaster "avec" Aerosmith.  French and English mixed isn't pretty.

Although, to contradict my moaning - "race rally" doesn't make sense since the attraction isn't a "race".  And the French have to endure "Crush's Coaster", so I guess we're even. :lol: 3 out of the 4 new attractions having English names (incl. Tower and Buzz) is pretty good.

If that's the case then why have they put up signs with the english and french names!

To help with advertising, I guess.  People will react more to something if its in their language - same way Buzz was advertised using both a French and English name.

I think what raptor means is that "Cars Quatre Roues Rallye" should be the official title used above the attraction's entrance.  They'll probably translate it for the English park maps though, same way they translate attraction names like Indy and Pirates Beach yet their entrance signs are in French...

The actual attraction platform will be located one metre below ground level.  That's probably the reason why.
