Does Tron roller coaster have drops?

On the main Disney World page for Tron, it's described as having 'Big Drops'. This just seems odd to me, as everything I have read/seen about the ride describes it as fairly tame (minus the launch) with no real big drops, certainly no more than Guardians of the Galaxy which is listed as 'Small Drops'.

TRON is most similar to the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster over at Hollywood Studios, which is also a catapult-launched, indoor coaster. TRON is by far the most intense coaster in the Magic Kingdom, although it doesn't have any loops or inversions.

If you have a thrill seeker who enjoys speed, Tron will not be too scary for them. One thing to note: it's a relatively short ride that truly only lasts 60 seconds once in motion. So even if Tron turns out to be scary, it should be a very short experience.

There's no magic number to weight or height when it comes to riding TRON Lightcycle Run. Rather, it's about the distribution of weight across your frame, as well as the size of your calves. It won't be uncommon for lean, tall, and muscular guests to have issues.

MORE DETAILS

As previously discussed, TRON's motorbike-style seats may not fit larger passengers; if you're taller or have thicker calves, make sure to try the available test seat. If you don't fit, ask Cast Members in the loading area for the Light Rover, which is the regular-style coaster car.

Overall milder than Guardians. Tron is somewhere in between what you seem to be ok with or not. Lots of fun. It feels fast, but smoother than Big Thunder and Space Mountain.

Walt Disney World's latest roller coaster does not disappoint. Walt Disney World's new Tron Lightcycle Run roller coaster immediately separates itself from the vacation destination's other thrill rides with a pulse-pounding launch that propels users, er, guests nearly 60 miles per hour.

With top speeds of just under 60 miles per hour, TRON Lightcycle/Run is one of the fastest rides in Walt Disney World and certainly the fastest roller coaster you will find in Magic Kingdom. For comparison, its neighbor Space Mountain reaches half that maximum speed at 27 miles per hour.

The ride speeds up to 59 miles per hour at the start, making it, along with its sister ride, TRON Lightcycle Power Run in Shanghai, the fastest at any Disney park in the world. (For reference, Rock 'n' Roller Coaster at Walt Disney World hits 57 miles per hour.)
