Is there drops in Test Track?

While the overall ride doesn't have any big drops, Test Track does have some small dips and bumps. None of them are significant enough to be counted as scary, but it's not a flat, smooth ride. Your kids will experience starts, stops, accelerations and some dips throughout the testing experience.



No, Test Track at EPCOT does not feature any traditional "vertical drops" like those found on a roller coaster or a log flume. The ride is built on a high-speed slot-car system rather than a gravity-based track. While there are segments with small "hills" and banked turns designed to simulate rough terrain or high-speed handling, the sensations are horizontal and lateral rather than vertical. The "thrill" of Test Track comes from acceleration and velocity, specifically during the final outdoor "Power Test" where the vehicle reaches speeds of up to 65 mph (104.6 km/h). As of 2026, the ride has undergone a major "Version 3.0" reimagining inspired by the original World of Motion, which focuses more on the evolution of mobility. Even with these thematic changes, the ride vehicle remains on a flat or slightly inclined track throughout the experience. If you are looking for drops at EPCOT, you would be better served by Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, which features several "weightless" descending maneuvers.
