This ride is fun. I'm constantly laughing at how bad I am at driving. I would only ride it though if there's no line. This would be great for little kids, since they most likely be bothered by the smell of gas.
Pros:
Fun to drive, perfect for little kids.Cons:
Smells bad, hard to drive.Reviewed by tiverson Review Date: 03/29/2020

Smog fumes: THE RIDE! This ride best simulates being stuck in a traffic jam with your windows open. Rode once, spent 20 minutes asphyxiating while waiting to be unloaded. steering wheel is basically just a prop. Do not ride if you have any lung issues!
Pros:
kids can pretend to drive a carCons:

While this is a classic Disney World attraction, there are two main factors that often give it a bad rap.
1) it needs an upgrade. This gripe is completely valid, as modern technology and some modern theming wouldn't require demolishing the existing ride and building an entirely new one but would pretty easily result in an experience on a much higher level. I keep hoping this is something being planned in the not-too-distant future, rather than replacing it altogether.
2) people seem to be so focused on the latest and greatest rides that are aimed as much at teens/adults as they are kids - or entirely at teens/adults - that it makes me think many of them never experienced this ride as a kid or don't have their own little kids. For me and my brothers growing up going to WDW from a very young age, this was one of THE rides to experience every trip. It was our way of getting the "thrill" of driving a car when we were even too young for go-karts but with all of the great emotions and scenery that go along with being at Magic Kingdom. I have so many memories of my grandparents pressing the pedals for us while we were allowed to steer because we couldn't reach. I can't wait for my two year old son and his "on the way" brother to be old enough to experience this ride. I'm really hoping it's been upgraded and not completely replaced by then.
Autopia in California - which is basically the same ride - is a good example of how something as simple as cars that actually steer puts this type of ride much higher on the list of recommendations. I really feel that an upgrade of the cars to something more aesthetically and technologically modern, along with some theming upgrades around the track and queue/loading area, would make this a must-do for many visitors with younger kids, not to mention those of us who have the nostalgia factor on this ride but understand what an overall disappointing experience it can be at this point.
Pros:
Long ride, kid-friendly, can often get same-day FastPassCons:
Hard to steer even for adults, needs an upgrade to more modern theme/technologyReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 04/05/2020

Great ride, but there are so things that I dislike about the ride.
Pros:
Theming and the fact that you have the chance to drive a car.Cons:
The cars are hard to drive. I have my license and driving my own car is a billion times easier than those cars.Reviewed by Addie345disney Review Date: 04/11/2020

I personally love this attraction. I love it even though most of the time I am just laughing at myself for my horrible driving😂. It is also great for the kiddos because it is like they are really driving a car. Plus the parents get a nice view of Tron and they get a kick out of the children driving.
Pros:
Great breeze, great laugh, and great location.Cons:
The line is really hot and the line moves really slow.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 04/14/2020

This is a fun attraction but not very Disney at all, takes you back to a hometown carnival. Not my favorite but I will still go on if the wait isn't terrible
