Thanks for the info on the new Simpsons Ride. After staying at Wilderness Lodge for 9 nights, we are staying at Portofino Bay at Universal for two more nights before heading home. It is going to be an awesome vacation.

I saw a preview of it on the morning news. It looks so much FUN! I'm not a thrill seeker though so I hope it doesn't turn your stomach too much. I am planning to ride it anyway though.

Sue, if it's like its predecessor it will be a ride simulator, similar to Star Tours.

ok its the same car that BTTF used, but redone, and its almost right up there with spiderman.
it feels like your in the ride. its also very smooth, not bumpy at all with lots of turns and you get the upsidedown feeling without going upsidedown.
