Racers Start Your Engines!

THIS is knowledge you need to have before going to Disney California Adventure...
Radiator Springs Racers has such a perfect blend of  Disney magic, character fun, and butterfly tummy ride excitement,
so it's crazy popular ride(for good reason) and people are willing to wait for it.

TIP: remember to check height restriction to make sure your little one will be able to get on 

before you wait in any long lines for it.

So..to get on this ride(twice if you want) follow these instructions.

Try and do your Cars Land on a weekday if possible...the closer to the 

middle of the week, the less people there will be headed for the ride. 

Be in line at the park at least 30 minutes in advance.

They will open the park about that early and let people in the park.

They start the fastpass line for R.S.R. when they let people in the park.

If you want to get in this line, it's on the left & there will be cast members directing you there.

You'll need ALL your party's passes to get fast passes for all of them, so they ALL need to be in the park by park opening
time so they can give you their passes. While you're waiting for the fast pass, the rest of your party can wait with the crowD
(who are almost all waiting to go to Cars Land like you;)

After you get your fast passes, you may be able to join the rest of your party in line for cars...or they might get on without you.
(but you'll have the fastpasses for later)

 Or if you want to skip the fast pass line and just get on the ride with everyone first thing, then early arrival is the key.

Later the line is about 2 hours long or longer...that's a long time to hope your kiddies don't need to use the bathroom.

Going on this ride early like this saves time later, but you will feel like cattle as you get corralled into the line in a huge crowd.
That being said....we LOVE the ride and never skip it for anything;)
