Test Track – Epcot

Posted on by Jack Spence
I can’t discuss Test Track without first talking about the early years of Epcot. When the park opened on October 1, 1982, it was to be an “adult” park – a place where guests could learn about the challenges facing the world and how the companies involved with Epcot were trying to solve them. And … Continue reading "Test Track – Epcot"
