It’s FINALLY here — D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event has officially kicked off, and we’ve already got some new details and concepts about the new lands coming to Disney World!
Specifically, we have A LOT of new concepts surrounding Piston Peak, the Cars-themed land coming to Magic Kingdom. Disney revealed new concept art and models for one of the attractions in this land, so let’s break it down!
Piston Peak is inspired by National Parks, and specifically Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. TWO new attractions will be introduced with the opening of this land — a family-friendly attraction for “smaller racers” and a rally race-themed attraction. Disney released new concept art and models for the rally race-themed attraction, and it comes with some changes — it looks like it’s no longer a race.
The first piece of concept art gives us an overview of the attraction, including a car driving through the track, A LOT of scenery of trees and mountains, a log cabin, and a camera operator on the top left (which could be the ride photo location!)
The next piece of concept art features guests in a yellow car driving over a bridge across the water — we’re in for a bumpy ride! The cars look to be a similar structure to those at Test Track with a row of three people in the back and three people in the front.
The final piece of concept art shows the finish line, which signals the end of the attraction. Guests will be met with Lightning McQueen, Mater, Guido, and Luigi, as well as another camera operator. Could there be two attraction photos on this ride? The finish line sign reads, “Rally Racers Finish,” with another sign under, reading, “Piston Peak Ridge Run Trail.”
We also got to see some models of this attraction! It looks to be similar to Radiator Springs Racers in Cars Land at Disneyland, but instead of a head-to-head race, there is only a single track. This concept makes it feel like it’s less of a race and more of a ride through Piston Peak!
We also got an overview of the WHOLE land, which will include shopping and dining locations!
There will be A LOT of new announcements throughout the weekend, and we’ll be giving them to you LIVE, so stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for more!
