I liked this so much more than I expected to! I am a total coaster wuss, so the very premise of this one terrified me, but I was determined to try it. The initial launch was pretty scary -- but after that, I found it to be a lot less intense than Guardians. The ride vehicle makes for a really wild, unique experience, and I ended up loving it.
That said, because the options are to either wait in a very long line (*after* your virtual queue) or spend money, I probably won't do this every trip. I hate lines and would never wait as long as this one can be, but sometimes that twenty-odd dollars can be better spent elsewhere.
I know the length is a con for most people, because it is a short ride, but for a coaster wuss, that was a good thing! I knew I had less that I had to make it through!
Definitely recommend doing this at least once, but not a must-do for every trip.
Pros:
unique experience, fast and fun thrill rideCons:

Arguably the best thrill ride in this park, however it does have it faults. The ride isn't super accessible as you need to sit as if you are on a bike and the restraints might make it impossible if you are bigger or just have bigger calves. However, I am a big fan of the Tron movie, so for me, it's perfect.
Pros:
- Fast! - Follows the Tron storyline very well. - Awesome theming in the queue - Super immersiveCons:
- Seating can be inaccessible or uncomfortable for some.Reviewed by JustinDoesDisney Review Date: 03/12/2024

So, TRON and I have a love–hate relationship: it loves me to ride it, but I hate riding it! All joking aside, it's an extremely fun and thrilling coaster delivering an experience like no other ride in Disney World, especially its insanely fast launch. Something to be aware of is that the ride vehicles are motorcycle-style where the seating position has you almost leaning forward flat on your belly. The seating position, in addition to the very hard materials used to construct the ride vehicles, make for a very uncomfortable ride for some. Fortunately, there are modified (traditional roller-coaster) seats on the last row of some of the trains in case you do not prefer the riding position of a Lightcycle. This ride also doesn't currently offer a standby line, so the only way to ride it is to join the virtual queue or purchase an Individual Lightning Lane (cost fluctuates based on demand). I certainly understand this ride being a one-and-done for some guests as the long wait may not be worth just a 60-second ride, but I still recommend everyone riding it at least once for the launch alone.
