The New Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

April 24, 2019 · In: Florida Travel

This Lightning McQueen Racing Academy post was written in partnership with Walt Disney World. I received complimentary tickets to attend Hollywood Studios as a part of a media day attraction premiere. All views and opinions are my own.

For as long as I can remember my teenage son has been a huge fan of Cars the movie and Lightning McQueen. He eventually passed that love down to his little brother who currently loves Lightning just the same. Recently we had the opportunity to visit Walt Disney World’s Hollywood Studios for the opening of Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy; an interactive show featuring some of your favorite Cars characters.

My little ones were blown away and in absolute Disney bliss. The fun begins before you even enter Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy in the Sunset Showcase courtyard. From Cruz Ramirez under the Dinoco tent complete with the Piston cup, the Route 66 car DJ playing the latest jams for a pre show dance party, and the perfectly appointed photo walls, it was all so…..Disney! Every little detail is perfect and amazing.

The tone of the show is set as you approach the attraction with the tunes of Life is a Highway by the Rascal Flatts playing. Then entering the show is stunning. Lightning McQueens number 95 is towering the entrance with colored mood lights as the backdrop that really sets the fun tone for the experience. We entered the garage like room with a large wrap around screen and work benches as the seating. Absolute clever detail.

Before the show begins a Cars trivia game plays on the large screen and it was great to guess the answers with my little. Cruz Ramirez welcomed us to the show then Tow mater took over with his signature singing and encouraged an enthusiastic KACHOW to introduce Lightning McQueen.

When the show began and Lightning McQueen himself appeared on the stage my son was beyond excited. I was actually really impressed too. I wasn’t expecting an actual full size car to appear on the stage LOL. It was great! The show began and Lightning McQueen is giving a racing lesson to the kids on the racing simulator with Cruz Ramirez.

While practicing Chick Hicks hacks into the simulator and wants to challenge Lightning to another race. This begins the premise of the show. During the race Lightning ends up needing help from his friends to help him win.

The message of the show was teamwork and it really resonated with me and I used that as an opportunity to talk to my kids about it. We talked about the importance of working together as a family and being there for our friends when they need us and the importance of being a dependable person. They haven’t stopped talking about it since.

Lightning ended the show like this:

“Well rookies, that is not how I thought this lesson was going to go. Chick reminded me that in the end racing is not about speed, flash or crossing the finish line, its about the journey you take to get there and who you got driving alongside you.”

I couldn’t have said it better Lightning. KACHOW!

First off, forget them people! Respectfully… Bu First off, forget them people! Respectfully…

But, I get it!  Most times we lack confidence worrying about other people’s opinion on this or that, but… 

- Stop trying to prove people wrong and prove yourself right! This is about you. You overcoming your fears. You finding the audacity to be great. You pursuing YOUR best life.

- Surround yourself with people that pour into you. Having the right support system is essential. It helps you ignore the noise around you. Join an online group, meetup with positive people local to you.

- Figure out the area you lack confidence in and build yourself up in that area.

- Feel the fear and do it anyway! You gotta just push through. Keep working. Keep showing up. Keep building.

Save this post and reference it when you feel self doubt creeping in.

It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a product It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a productive week! 

Here are a few things I do to make sure the business and the babies are setup for success:

- Write down everything I need to get done this week on Sunday. I literally do a brain dump of all the things.

- Then I prioritize these things from most important to least! …because let’s be real I wanna do everything but there’s only so much time in the day 😂 

- Then I schedule the first 3 things in my planner for Monday. I like to see it here and put in Google calendar.

- I plan, shop, and prep all my meals for the week on Sunday too. Because who got time for “What y’all wanna eat?” everyday lol 

- Lastly I’m trying to make room for IG this week because that hasn’t been a priority. But @planoly is coming in clutch for me.

So I’m implementing the strategy: if you fail to plan, you plan to fail! And I’m planning to get it done this week!!!

Share this with an entrepreneur that could use it!
