We need Robo's WDW maps for DLR. The Wikimapia needs an updated satellite image and annotations (Luigi's Roamin' Tires?).

So for those of us that are clueless on the lay of the land, the GCH entrance (which I assume is the best entrance for guests staying @ DLH) is near GRR, so follow the Yellow Brick Road past GRR and the Pacific Wharf area to the entrance to Cars Land, which I presume is near ITB and Mater's (MJJ)? Sorry, but the image is really dated.

You guys make a good point. Would it just be smarter to go to the ride? I'm assuming everyone is thinking to run to the FP machines first thing in the morning and not to the ride making the ride line not that bad?

At one point the ride was going to be called Luigi's Roamin' Tires. FYI.

As I've posted elsewhere, I won't be able to be there on opening weekend but with all of you making your plans for rushing the FP machine, I would be planning on heading directly to the ride itself. ("excuse me pardon me")

As for how to find the FP machines, just follow the crowd apparently.

I had the same thought. His maps were very helpful when we planned our trip to WDW for Star Wars Weekends. I wasn't sure how the running of the bulls for Toy Story Mania worked or where the attraction was. Lucky for me, the planets were in perfect alignment that day. B/c of SWW the park opened an hour earlier than the posted time, so there were not too many people in line, most of who ran to Jedi Training Acadamy and ST. It was a nice, slow, quiet walk to Toy Story Mania with about 20 other people. Got a fastpass, rode, got a fastpass and rode again.

I don't think we'll be as lucky this year for RSR. Maybe, I'll just head to standby with my 2-year-old for a rider switch pass while everyone else tries to get a fastpass. Should be interesting.

On opening day:

FPs for RSR were gone in less than an hour.

eek! ONE HOUR!

I guess riding it quick and then getting a FP might not work.
