I love cars, but I'm just not a fan of racing or car stunt shows. I love the chase scenes in Bullitt, and the French Connection, but I have no driving desire to see LMA.

It feels wrong, it feels dirty to me.

How many others don't like ' car chases' period- maybe this is a distraction from that-- either way I'll see it soon and we'll see

Some projections? And RNRC has blacklight cutouts. <<But I would give you Big Thunder, the Matterhorn or Expeition Everest, there are not many (if any) with that level of theming.>> Big Thunder is by far the best coaster in WDW. Best theming by far.
