Thanks for the tips! I love Magic Morning hours. You can get so much done.
I'm going August 1st but with a friend who doesn't have an AP, so I will only be at Disneyland again. I will go before the end of Summer though. I'm itching to see World of color too. I love that show. Mmm and some ribs from Taste Pilots' Grill sound good. Lol Can you guys tell I haven't been in CA since March?

We have AP and we got early admission on Sunday.
Tip: Cars Land is open early, but only the Mater's Junkyard and Luigi's Tire are open. The Racers do not open until the park opens.
Tip: FastPasses for the Racers are not available until the park opens.

What we did, stand in line for the FastPass and my husband took the kids on the other two rides, then lined up for the Racers. Finally I got the Fastpass and joined them in line for the Racers.

EVERYONE wants to get on the Racers.

I've been and I thought RSR was awesome. I didn't do to much else in Cars Land though because it was so packed. I finally figured out that AP's can get you into a park an hour early like magic mornings so I'm going to go back in August to check out Cars Land. It was beautiful though, nicely done.

That's great! I can't wait to see the lights turn on. Maybe I'll do the single rider line. That's what I usually do for Screamin if I don't get a FP. A red apple freeze sounds yummy. I'll have to try that too. Maybe I'll see ya there. :)

I've been several times now between cast/AP previews and going early in the morning a couple days. I'm not a pickle person so the popcorn didn't do it for me but the churro bites and the red apple freeze was great!

Racers is one of the best rides that Disney has done in a long time. The fastpasses run out but 1030-11a at the latest.. They are available at the old Bugs Life FP machines but the line to get them usually starts on Buena Vista Street. I've done FP and regular line but the longest I've waited it about 70 minutes in standby. There is alot of cool stuff in the queue to look as well. They also have single rider which is usually about a 45-60 minute wait.

Luigi's is a fun ride but their line gets crazy quickly. I wouldn't wait more than 45 min for this one and yesterday it was posted at over 105 minutes.. Mater's is also great and the line moves pretty fast since there are two turntables that load.

The whole land is gorgeous and every time I go I see new things that I didn't notice before. The Imagineers did a great job!

Have fun!!

ps - the neon turns on 2 minutes after sunset and it's just like in the movie!!

I was going to go today but I'm too tired and even though I'm going to Disneyland on Tuesday the 3rd, I'm going with people who don't have AP's so I can't go to CA.
I'll probably go the following week. I'm dying to try the dill pickle flavored popcorn. I love dill pickles!

Has anyone gone yet? Ride any of the rides? The lines are still crazy long. I believe Radiator Springs Racers is still about 4+ hours with fast passes running out by mid morning.
