Epcot without fastpass. Crazy?

[BJSforVols]

Considering going to Epcot at rope drop without Fastpass on a Wednesday in October. No big deal if we skipped Soarin (not a favorite for our family). Would head staright to Test Track at Rope Drop. Does it seem doable to go this route if one is not too upset if they miss Soarin, or would we be making a mistake.

Thinking of using the fatspasses that day in the afternoon when we hop to MK. (We have 1 or possibly even 2 other days where we will use FP+ at MK already though.)

What's everyone's opinions?

1) Use 3 early at EPcot and hope for a 4th at MK?

2) Do not use FP+ at Epcot but hit Epcot at rope drop and save FP+ for MK afternoon?

The second one sounds better for you.

FP is not needed at Epcot if you plan to RD and only want one of the 2 headliners. Character Spot, Maelstrom and Mission Space usually won't be more than 30 minutes at the height if the day and everything else should be 15 or less in the morning hours.

Thanks everyone. That's the way I was leaning, but I wanted to make sure I was being realistic.

#2. We can usually get in Sum of All Thrills on our way to TT or MS and still not have a long wait for them.
