Burn up the track in this
pint-sized version of a raceway. Real gas-powered cars can be driven by
anyone tall enough to reach the pedal. Steer and control the speed of your
own racecar as you "lap" up the excitement of this thrilling speedway.
Formerly known as the Grand
Prix Raceway, the Tomorrowland Indy Speedway is the closest anyone can get
to real speedway driving! These replica race cars cost about $6,000 and
drive on 2,260 feet of track racing at speeds well over 5 MILES PER HOUR!
This ride is excellent for the pre-driving age crowd, and adults love it
as well. New sponsorships have brought more advances to this ride. A
replica tower that displays the race results as well as speakers pumping
out loud tire squealing and engine sounds have recently been added
Most of the background noise in
Tomorrowland comes from the Tomorrowland Indy Speedway, located opposite
Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe.
The speedway features small replica cars
with petrol engines, real steering, and disc brakes (although the cars do
run in a track, so whilst the steering wheel really does work, in realtiy
it's more for fun and effect, since if you don't bother to steer, the cars
will steer themselves anyway).
Oddly, despite the disc brakes, there's
no brake pedal, though the cars come to a fairly rapid stop when the
accelerator pedal is released, so there's nothing to worry about.
The Speedway is suitable for children (of
all ages), though guests must be at least 52 inches tall to drive the cars
themselves.
