RC Racer

The power outage of 28 April 2026 showed how vulnerable operations at the newly opened Disney Adventure World could be. Around 3:30 p.m., almost all attractions in Disneyland Paris’s second park suddenly stopped. Shows were cancelled as well. For guests, it meant an afternoon spent inside the park with very few places left to go.

The impact was broad. Looopings listed Frozen Ever After, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, Avengers Assemble: Flight Force, Ratatouille, Raiponce Tangled Spin, RC Racer, Les Tapis Volants, Slinky Dog Zigzag Spin, Toy Soldiers Parachute Drop, Cars Road Trip and Crush’s Coaster among the affected rides. Only Spider-Man W.E.B. Adventure and Cars Quatre Roues Rallye avoided closure, according to the report. Paths and squares became crowded because much of the park’s attraction capacity disappeared at once.

Historically, the report matters because Disney Adventure World had only recently started operating under its new name. The outage did not hit one problematic ride, but almost the entire attraction lineup, including new draws such as Frozen Ever After and Raiponce Tangled Spin. By around 5:15 p.m., all rides were operating again except Frozen Ever After and Avengers Assemble: Flight Force; those returned later as well. The article records an early stress test for the renewed park.

This Looopings article is relevant to RC Racer because it covers the expansion of Toy Story Playland around the area that has included RC Racer since 2010. RC Racer is the shuttle coaster in Toy Story Playland at Disneyland Paris' second gate, now known as Disney Adventure World. Although the ride is compact, it is an important marker within the Toy Story area and contributes to capacity and guest flow there. News about closures, queues, area layout or thematic additions can therefore affect how visitors plan this part of the park. In historical terms, the article shows that RC Racer should not be viewed only as a standalone Intamin attraction, but as part of a land that has been reorganised, rebranded and used in different ways over time. For W8baan, this context is useful because operational interruptions, event usage, area changes and queue information can later help explain wait-time patterns and visitor expectations.
