Help me settle a disagreement over old Horizons ride

[tiggersthebest]

For those of you old-timers, my father and I have been disagreeing over what ride replaced the old Horizons ride at Epcot- I say test track, he says Mission Space. Which one of us is right?? Thanks for the help.

The way you can tell is because Test Track's building is the exact same building that World of Motion was in.

Really? I remember them doing some demolishion on the building, but guess I'll have to break out the old video from 1994. I remember walking right into the building and onto the ride on our trip in October/November 1994. I have the entire ride on video.

Never got Horizons on tape, but I remember it well.

I think the only real construction they did on the building was making the track able to come out of it. But since it's always been owned by GM, they wanted the building to be in a wheel like shape. If you see the view from the top, you can see what was supposed to be the spokes of the wheel. And you can see when passing on the monorail, the original metallic sides of the building remain.

I'm a big fan of World of Motion as you can see
