Why does the new maps for Disney Springs have a bridge to "Team Disney and Speedway Parking Lots". What is the speedway?
 
That's the Speedway (formerly Hess) Gas Station that's located across Buena Vista Dr from Disney Springs.
 
It used to be a Hess gas station until they were bought by Speedway.
 

You know, you'd think Speedway could sponsor the Tomorrowland Speedway. It's right there in the name. Autopia at DL just got a sponsor and they are making lots of upgrades to it.

If it's like many gas station operators at that level, they won't be around long enough to be a "sponsor."
 
Speedway is a HUGE gas station chain. On a side note - the ones on Disney property aren't allowed to sell gum or Pepsi products. It's logical, but frustrating when you're looking for your mountain dew fix lol.

True. Plus, I'd like to see the Tomorrowland Speedway go electric, so a gas company might not be the best choice. Honda is sponsoring Autopia, but they just painted the gas powered cars.
 
The Tomorrowland Speedway presented by Tesla.

:car:

See, I would like that, and Tesla would totally fit with the Tomorrowland theme. A lot of people think the Speedway is a waste of space, but it could be really cool if it got an overhaul.

How about a Tron overlay? 'Course, it would only really work at night.

Have you seen the video of the TRON coaster at Shanghai? It looks awesome! I think they should just bring that over, but as something different than Speedway.

Yep -- that's what made me think of it.
