What is the ride Tron like?

Its intense launch and ride time feel similar to Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith at Disney's Hollywood Studios. It's extremely smooth, like EPCOT's Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, without the spinning. And like EPCOT's Test Track, part of the track goes outdoors.

TRON does move up and down a fair bit, but there's very little of that “stomach-drop” feeling with your feet leaving the floor. That's for two reasons. The first is that on a Lightcycle your head points down, not your feet. But the bigger reason is that almost all of TRON's rise-and-drop motion includes a turn.

TRON is by far the most intense coaster in the Magic Kingdom, although it doesn't have any loops or inversions.

There's nothing slow about this ride. 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.

Indeed, there are a great many elements that went into creating TRON Lightycle Run that works in harmony to create a thrilling experience. That said, many of the initial reviews of the ride noted how short the actual ride experience is. From launch to final deceleration, you're looking at about 60 seconds of ride time.

Outside of the initial launch, it is pretty tame. It is way less intense than Cosmic and Hagrids. That launch is a bit faster than I had expected but if you can do Cosmic Rewind, you can do Tron easy. To me, tron was a little scarier than cosmic due to the heights/drop factor.

In the end, TRON Lightcycle / Run is a wildly fun ride, and it's something we look forward to doing every single time we come to the Magic Kingdom. It's a must-do, and it indeed makes things even better that it replaced absolutely nothing.

You are seated very easily with a lap bar, and the vehicle is placed at the back of the coaster train. Overall, even though my test experience riding TRON was a little uncomfortable, I'm grateful to have had the option to use the accessibility car.

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror If we're talking about the scariest rides at Disney World, I had to start with The Tower of Terror. I mean, it's all in the name! From the ghostly holograms, the 'death' defying drop(s) to the sinister theming, everything is designed to scare the Mickey outta you – and it really does.

TRON Lightcycle / Run does not go upside down, but it does have big drops. There are also twists and turns throughout the ride — after all, you're racing on a motorbike.

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.

If you don't fit, or if you're just uncomfortable with the position on the bikes, TRON offers a regular car-style coaster seat at the end of some trains.
