I am so sad about this one! My DD who will be 7 during this trip is finally tall enough to ride it and she can't now!!

Guess we'll just have to go back again!

What are they doing to it? Any drastic changes?

**Dana** · 08-05-2007

It needs the rehab for sure. When we were there in October, the music kept slipping up etc. Therehab that it went under months ago was to add single riders lines...didn't have anything to do with the technicals etc. I hate that people will miss is, but it's gotta get done sooner or later and there truely isn't ever a good time to fix anything in a park that is open 365 days a year. That being said, I am secretly happy that it's not closed for my entire trip, but also sad at the same time that I won't be able to do it on my last day which is a tradition for us...oh well.

Just a full rehab as far as I know....no changes other than the single rider line. They have to work on the cars, tracks etc...has to be done right? I would prefer a safe coaster..lol

How is a single riders line going to work? Won't the single riders get mixed up with the regular riders during the preshow? I did the single riders at Test Track a lot, and I'm trying to remember how it worked...

I am to assume that they will have a seperate line in the queue and just get to the cement walking path faster. That's the only way it will work. They will get mixed in with the other eventually just like fast pass riders. Again, I am making assumptions. I haven't seen it yet. They did this addition after my october trip.

Soundgod · 08-05-2007

It'll work like every other Disney single rider lone. Single riders get into the single rider line and move to the head of that line. The riders are fed back into the general queue at or near the station by CMs in a manner similar to the way they feed in FP riders, except, single riders are used to fill empty seats in odd numbered groups.

You are pretty much exactly right! Both single rider and fastpass now merge right before the recording studio. I actually think fastpass moves faster now. Have fun!!

I assumed right then. Makes sense to me since that's how they do it on all the other attractions at WDW that offer this.

Well, if that's the case...

Then a family could get in the single-riders line, and get to the recording studio. But once they get to the recording studio, they could merge into the regular line. (Not to give any ideas or anything...)

Whatever works...except the only issue would be that they use single riders to fill up empty cars. I don't know how they intend to do this with fast pass, single rider and regulay riders all merging together at the recording studio....should be interesting.
