I'll form a list of people who want to do this.
This will be durring the team party on Saturday night. If TT isn't open, well do Honey, I Shrunk The Audience.

But I will make this clear, this won't begin untill after Tapestry of Dreams! I love that parade and nothing will stop me (except Mr. Turner). HAHAHAHAH!

List:
Joseph M
Michael Krass
Yearbook50
Possible other member from 384.

I would like to get it up to 6, so we could all ride in one car and get an on-ride photo for posterity.

PS Does anybody know if they slowed Test Track down or not? Someone on our team said it is a lot slower around the exterior track.

SlaveOfChernobl is an unknown quantity at this point
nothing personal, but tt isn't exactly a ride-a-thon type of ride. i suggest tower of terror or the rockin' roller caoster.

We tried to that on Sunday last year, but we were only able to get on once and get one fastpass. By the time we got off from the first ride, there was an hour wait.

I don't take offence, I know TT isn't a great Ride-A-Thon ride (Millionaire is!) but that is the only time I could do something like it was at Epcot durring the party. We can't leave our team, that's why I say we can't to the ride a thon untill ToD finnishes, because that would be the only time to see it that I have!
