Past few years, when our kids are done with their homeschool studies, we've jetted somewhere for a good week long vacation. We've done WDW with 2 kids in 2013, 3 kids in 2014, and 4 kids in 2018. 2019 we did a "California Adventure", with a few days in LA and a day at Disneyland, and then a NorCal stint to visit family. 2021 we jetted down and did a few days in Clearwater, and then Legoland, and then re-visited Legoland and Universal in December that year. We decided on WDW for 2023 mostly because all the shows were reopened - and we hate trying to battle lines and people the entire time. Didn't do a of reading up on this trip, other than for Genie+.
Couple of things we did differently than on other WDW trips:
1) We made the decision to stay off-site and rent a car. We have done a ton of traveling in the last few years, and my side consulting hustle has exploded in demand in the last couple years as well. Sleeping 6 at a WDW property is not cheap, and we typically only use the room to sleep, not to lounge and relax in during the day. In previous years, we were sort of frustrated with WDW transportation as well. Our previous stays were at Pop Century and Caribbean Beach, which typically had long wait times for transportation both to and from the parks, and the bus stops felt like the furthest away from the park entrance.
2) This would be the first trip we've made without a stroller. In our 2019 Disneyland day, that was done on a whim and we didn't bring a stroller with us, and decided not to rent one for the day and see how it went.
Our typical strategy for keeping things affordable and maximizing our time is to be at the park at rope drop, and then eating one meal that we kept in our backpacks, and another meal in the park. My kids rage in age from 14 down to 7. We decided in advance to do Genie+ for every single day other than our last day.
May 14 - Travel Day
We took a new airline out of our city, Avelo. Total cost with checked bags ended up being about $110 round trip per person. Airport is about 5 minutes from our house, and we breezed through TSA not only because we had precheck, but it's a small airport, so there was about 2 people in front of us when we got to security. We boarded early and took off early because everyone was checked in at around 6:15pm. Arrived in MCO 30 minutes ahead of schedule, picked up our Turo rental, and headed to the Home2 suites we booked on points near the outlet mall and the south I-Drive corridor. Headed to Walmart to pick various grocery items needed for the week. Avelo really was great, and we walked in not expecting much, but the service was really friendly, and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves.
May 15 - Epcot
We originally scheduled to do Epcot first because we didn't think we'd get in on time with the budget airline, or be able to breeze through check-in at the hotel. Originally, we thought we'd be getting groceries and entering the park closer to 10-11a, but instead, we were able to rope drop the park. We got boarding group 16 for Guardians, so we walked there first. Guardians is easily one of the best themed roller coasters I've ever been on 10/10. Enjoyed the entire thing from the standby line to the ride itself. Went and did Mission: Space, made me a little motion sick, my oldest daughter sat out with claustrophobic feelings. Our lightning lane for Remy was right after we got off Guardians, so we booked it back to France to do that. Again, fantastic ride, loved the new ride tech they're using now. Then we double backed to Canada and decided to do the family friendly "eat around the world", so we got a small poutine to share, and watched Far and Wide. Stopped in the UK to visit Mary Poppins for a quick second, got some chips, and then headed back to France for a crepe, and we watched the Beauty and the Beast sing-along. Stopped in Morocco for a kebab, and then got some teriyaki chicken in Japan. Headed to the US section, listened to the choral group, and sat through the animatronic show - and fell asleep a few times. Celebrated with a funnel cake. Then headed to Italy for some gelato, got a pretzel in Germany, and then our lightning lane was good for Frozen. Finished that, got some kind of dessert roll from Norway, and then went to the China pavilion for potstickers, meeting Mulan, and the 360 movie. Went into Mexico, rode the 3 caballeros, and concluded with some tacos and churros. Headed over to the Seas to do the Nemo ride, Turtle Talk, let the kids look at the fish, then went over to Soarin'. We were getting pretty tired at that point, so we scouted a spot outside of the Canada pavilion and sat down for about an hour. Got some glow stuff out that we brought with us, and let the kids do mad-libs and DIY pictionary for the balance of the time. Watched the fireworks and headed back to the hotel. Just over 9 miles of walking that day.
May 16 - Magic Kingdom
Woke up early, got group 36 for Tron, and booked a lightning lane for Peter Pan's flight. Ended up buying an ILL for Mine Train, and rope dropped Space Mountain at the last second - original plan was to rope drop Mine Train, but the ride was down early, so we had to change up our plan. By then my oldest daughter was having a slight anxiety attack over the change, so we did a time-out and did the carousel of progress to hopefully give her a little time to reset. That did not work, and she had a full on anxiety attack as we were entering the virtual queue for Tron. I ended up jumping out of line with her to sit with her, and get her hydrated and some food in her. That helped, and we waited for the rest of the family to finish. Once they were off, they all headed to Laugh Floor, while I went through the Tron line solo. As a lot of other people have commented, the theming for the ride was really well done, but I felt the ride itself was a disappointment because it was too short. I met everyone for our LL for Peter Pan. Walked across to It's a Small World, and then watched Philharmagic. Did a standby line for Enchanted Tales, and then our ILL for Mine Train was next. From there, we did a LL for the Ariel meet & greet, and then rode the Little Mermaid ride in the standby line. Rode the train over to Adventure Land, rode Big Thunder on LL, and then headed over to Magic Carpets, and then the Tiki Room. Got a LL for Pirates. Ate dinner at Pecos Bill's. Walked towards Tomorrowland via Haunted Mansion, then hit the teacups, and then divided and conquered as I took my older kids back to the Laugh Floor, while my younger ones did the speedway. By then our LL for Jungle Cruise was active, so we did that and then went over to Mine Train to walk on it twice while the fireworks were going. Closed out the day heading over to Winnie the Pooh, sat and let the throng of people go down a bit, and headed out of the park around 10:45. Around 11 miles walking total for the day.
May 17 - Hollywood Studios
Another early day. Got a LL for Slinky Dog, and rope dropped Rise, waited about 30 minutes total. Amazing experience all around. Walked up to Toy Story land and did swirling saucers, and then the LL for Slinky Dog. Got a LL for Toy Story Mania, but the track went down for maintenance as we were about to get on (more on that later). Decided to use the freebie LL for Smuggler's Run. Again, amazing experience. Took a break for lunch and blue milk. Went to the Frozen Sing-along, where my daughter decided to yell "puddle", got a LL for Runaway Railway and then went over to Star Tours, and then MuppetVision. By then we realized that technically we used our LL for Toy Story Mania, but never got on the ride, so we visited customer relations, and explained the situation, and they tossed a Toy Story Mania LL back on our party's plan. We took an ice cream break, and headed over to the Indiana Jones show. My wife wanted to do the Edna meet and greet, so we did that, and then finally got on Toy Story Mania. Most of my family concluded the day with dinner at Woody's Lunchbox, and one more trip on Smuggler's Run. One of my older daughters stuck with me in the park until about 9:15 jumping between Rise, Smuggler's, bounty hunting, and Toy Story mania. Another 11 miles walking for the day.
May 18 - Hollywood Studios (Day 2)
Rope dropped Slinky Dog on this day, hopped over to Toy Story Mania, and then went back to Slinky Dog. Swirling saucers, and then TSM again. Took a AC break in the Walt Disney movie, and then went over to the BB8 and Darth Vader meets. Then walked back over to Star Tours, and Smuggler's Run before having lunch at Mama Melrose's. Then did the Beauty and the Beast show, and then the Lightning McQueen racing school show. Had a LL for Runaway Railway, so walked back to the main portion of the park. By then, we wanted to kill time for a little bit, so we exited, and took the skyliner to Epcot and then came back to Hollywood Studios. Re-entered, did Star Tours, and then walked onto Rise. Then walked onto Smuggler's Run and was told that we got a top score by the cast member (didn't get a picture of the score). By then weather was a concern, so we went out and watched the projection show in the rain, rode Runaway Railway again, and then took an ice cream break while Fantasmic was cancelled for the first show, and then waited until about 10:15p until they called the 10:30p show. 10 miles of walking.
May 19 - Magic Kingdom (Day 2)
With all the rope dropping, we opted for a late start on this day. Booked a LL for Peter Pan's flight, and then got into the park around 10:15a, and headed back there. Did It's a Small World right after. Opted to go back onto Little Mermaid, and then got a LL for the FoF parade and had lunch, so we didn't have to fight for seats. Went back to Philharmagic, then did Big Thunder. Took the train over to the splash pad, rode Tron, and then walked to Pinocchio Village Haus for dinner. After that, we did our LL for Jungle Cruise, and then camped out for the fireworks while a subset of kids and my wife went on Space Mountain. Watched the fireworks and headed out. 7.6 miles walked.
May 20 - Animal Kingdom
We never have done either Avatar ride, so we rope dropped Flights (also amazing), and then Navi River. Walked up to Africa for the Lion King show - one of our favorites, and then a LL for the Safari, also one of our favorites. Walked the gorilla trek halfway before we were turned around for work being done. Most of the family went on Kali River Rapids, while I waited, and then we did Everest twice. Took a break for lunch, and then went to the Nemo show, another one of our favorites. Walked back to Africa for one more safari, then called it a day with dinner at Flame Tree BBQ. Went back to the hotel to do laundry and swimming. Ended up taking one of our kids to Disney Springs to hit World of Disney to pick up something that she was eying. 10 miles walked.
May 21 - Epcot (Day 1.5)
Checked out of our hotel, rope dropped Soarin, and then headed to the Seas for Turtle Talk x2, and some fish watching. Did the Joy and Vanellope meets, and then had lunch at Connections before heading out to MCO. My wife did a couple loops of World Showcase buying up some Christmas ornaments for the tree. 5 miles walked.
Overall thoughts
We had a pretty ambitious schedule, and no real huge hiccups. All of our kids really did well and there was minimal complaining about the heat after day 3. Parks were not very busy, and felt dead at times. Confirmed with many CM's that it was very slow that week - Star Wars land was almost a ghost town after 6pm both days we were there. Genie+ really enabled us to make more use of our time, and we got a ton of value for it. However, the ability to NOT be able to select a time further out in the future caused a lot of unnecessary walking and juggling of return times. We often would book one farther out in the future and hit low standby line time rides, but then once we got the first two out of our way, we would just book one and use it pretty much right away. In a way, the system is a lot more fair, and is closer to the MaxPass that Disneyland had when we visited, but we wish we could have the same Genie+ rules apply, but schedule a return time further ahead in the day. We would end up using it on rides that really didn't need LL, just to push our time forward for a ride that you wanted to use LL for that wasn't offering a return time that worked with what we were planning. The regular genie "service" was a joke and we never used it. For a family that has always used Disney on-site transportation, we were shocked at how much time was saved by driving our own vehicle. And by being in the park early, we got great spots and could be in our car about 5 minutes after leaving the park.
Animal Kingdom was by far the most disappointing park. The theming of each area is always been great, but we felt that there wasn't much there to tie it all together anymore. Park needs a ton of work to become magical. We even felt the rewrites of the Nemo show really actually hurt the show than helped it. The characters on the motor boats was laughable. Always felt that the park was very heavy-handed with the environmental message, but it just felt over the top now.
The rest of the parks were great. We didn't encounter any visitors that were giving CM's grief or generally being stupid, and we made sure to give plenty of kindness to the CM's who often get the short end of the stick. Felt really bad for the Kidcot CM for England who lost her voice, but still engaged with us the best she could, and appreciated us telling her to feel better soon. Had a really poor experience with many of the CM's from France, they were particularly rude and were disengaged. Told my wife maybe that's part of the theming of the French being rude to Americans, but I felt it was unnecessary. Our waitress at Mama Melrose's was absolutely a gem, made sure to keep us hydrated to stay out of heat exhaustion trouble, and brought me a kid's dessert since most everyone else at the table had a kid dessert as well.

I have a list of track names such as "Daytona", this is list 1, and another list of track names where the full name is written out such as "Daytona International Speedway", this is list 2.
I would like a formula where each name on the first list will be looked for in the second list, if there is a match then i would like a value of 1, if there is no match then an error or o is fine for the return value. I would just like it to match even though I haven't written out the full name in the first list.
TIA

Got back from our trip to Disney World yesterday and I'm excited to share a report of our trip. We were a group of 4 consisting of two couples in our mid 20's. Luckily we made it back right before the WestJet strike that almost happened messed things up.
Wednesday May 10: Travel
Landed at MCO at about 10:30 am and picked up our rental car. We did some shopping at Target and Walmart and got Chick Fil A for lunch (we don't have it in Western Canada so it's always our arrival day meal). Someone almost caused an accident with us before we even got to the hotel but we checked into All Star Sports at around 3:30 and unpacked our things. Spent some time by the pool and then shared a pizza from the food court before getting some sleep before our first park day.
Thursday May 11: Magic Kingdom
Got our virtual queue for Tron right at the 7am drop without issue. We got to Magic Kingdom for early entry and took some pictures by the castle before going to 7DMT. We didn't rush there too quickly so we still waited about 30 minutes but that wasn't a big deal. We then went and used our first lightning lane for Space Mountain and got some Joffrey's before our boarding group was called. I lost about 60lbs in preparation for the trip and I managed to fit just fine on the ride, even being a 6'3" tall man. Using Genie+ we were able to get Haunted Mansion, POTC, Jungle Cruise, and Big Thunder done before having some spring rolls and corn dog nuggets for lunch. After Lunch we did some shopping, got a Dole Whip and watched the parade before we headed back to the Hotel for a break while we stockpiled some LL for Hollywood Studios in the evening. Headed to Hollywood Studios at around 6:30 and got in Runaway Railway, Tower of Terror, Midway Mania, and ROTR done before park closing.
Friday May 12: Animal Kingdom
Got into Animal Kingdom for early entry and headed straight to Expedition Everest. We rode that 3 times in a row before our stomachs couldn't handle more before we headed to the Safari with our first Lightning Lane. We saw tons of animals and they were still fairly active at that time. It was pretty hot so we did Kali River Rapids twice in a row before going to Dinosaur. Tried the Buffalo Chicken Chips at Trilo-Bites before our next Lightning Lane for Navi River Journey. We then went to Rainforest Cafe for Lunch (the butter steak is actually pretty good and I'm a steak snob). Took a pool break at the hotel and stockpiled some Multiple Experience passes for the evening while Big Thunder and Space Mountain were down. We went back to Magic Kingdom and got in Peter Pan before we did Big Thunder twice in a row before doing the same thing at Space Mountain. Watched Happily Ever After and did a couple dark rides before the park closed.
Saturday May 13: EPCOT
I got us in the virtual queue for Guardians before getting a Lightning Lane for Ratatouille. We then had breakfast at 'ohana. The timing of both the virtual queue and Lightning Lane return times worked perfectly for when we arrived at the park after breakfast. Guardians is such an incredible ride and we absolutely loved it. We then had an A/C break in the Land Pavillion while riding Soarin and Living with the Land. We rode Frozen before we did some drinking around the world, our favourite drinks were the Moonshine Sour in America, the Troll Kreme in Norway, and the Violet Sake in Japan. We had Regal Eagle for dinner and ended the night with Test Track.
Sunday May 14: Daytona Beach
We took a beach day and slept in a little bit before driving to Daytona Beach. The weather and the beach were awesome and we had fun hanging out on the beach and playing in the waves. We did some shopping at Disney Springs that evening as well.
Monday May 15: Hollywood Studios
We got in again for Early Entry and rode Tower of Terror and Midway Mania before our first Lightning Lane for Slinky Dog Dash. We got in Runaway Railway, Star Tours and Swirling Saucers before our lunch reservation at Roundup Rodeo BBQ. The food there was pretty solid and it was a super fun atmosphere. After our midday hotel break we got on Smugglers Run and used a complimentary ILL for ROTR due to there being a bug problem in our room. We got on Tower of Terror and got some food before we ended the night with the 10:30 showing of Fantasmic.
Tuesday May 16: Animal Kingdom
We used early entry to get on Flight of Passage and Navi River Journey while taking some extra time to check out Pandora. We did the Safari again before checking out the Gorilla Falls trail and the Maharajah Jungle Trek. This day was super hot again so we did Kali River Rapids back to back and got absolutely soaked. We got some multiple experience passes as well while that was down and did Everest back to back as well before we did Dinosaur back to back as well (there was no line so we just stayed in the vehicle). We rushed over to EPCOT because the VQ for guardians was still open at 2 and scanned in to join and then turned around and went back to the hotel. Our boarding group got called while we were at the hotel so we rushed back to EPCOT and got to the ride just in time. We also saved a LL for Test Track which we did again. We went to Disney Springs after and did some more shopping, got a Gideon's cookie and got some Chicken Guy (which we would later regret...)
Wednesday May 17: Magic Kingdom
We decided we would sleep in a little because we were a little worn out from all the rope dropping and staying late, which is usually abnormal for the last day but we needed it. I started feeling like crap on the bus ride to Magic Kingdom from the hotel and almost didn’t get off. Needless to say myself and the other people that had Chicken Guy (not the whole group) ended up with food poisoning. We did Laugh Floor and Buzz Lightning before going back to the hotel for a rest so we could try to salvage our after hours that we paid for weeks in advance. Ended up feeling a bit better by 6:30 so we went and used the virtual queue for Tron that we got at 1 and then hopped for the after hours at Hollywood Studios. Had as much fun as possible while still not being 100%. Watched the projection show and did every ride with minimal wait. All in all worth it but would’ve nice to have been at 100%.
Thursday May 18
Flew home after some delays due to the almost impending WestJet strike. Slept on the plane and made it home by 8:30. All in all an awesome trip where we got pretty much everything done that we wanted to.

I'm watching the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race in North Wilkesboro. I just saw that there is a race truck sponsored by Morgan & Morgan.
Sure, Tom has a blimp, which is nice and all, but does he have a NASCAR race truck? I think not!
I remember a few years ago, there was a bad wreck at Daytona Int'l Speedway where debris flew through the catch fence and injured some spectators. M&M immediately dispatched lawyers to the scene to solicit clients.

I have 1 to 4 rockville wristbands for sale for the weekend. I am in daytona near the speedway. Just message me and I will let you know my location. I am asking 280

My dream is to track drive Daytona Speedway but I believe it's not allowed, so where can a newbie like me do it? Any preparation do I have to do beforehand? Also, How does it feel track driving your Corvette?Thanks!

Hey, hey! I’ve had a few requests for updates and I imagine the sky is filled with plenty of cumulus and cumulonimbus clouds.
Most of the showers and storms to the north have had trouble staying together as they moved into the deserts this afternoon. However, there are plenty of outflow boundaries (winds that spread out from decaying storms) and one outflow boundary will approach the speedway from the west in the next 20-40 minutes and kick up some gusty winds briefly. They could be rather gusty.
Outflow boundaries can also kick up additional showers and storms and a new strong shower has developed in the last few minutes and could impact the speedway in the next hour. If it strengthens there could also be some lightning.
These are the isolated showers/storms in the forecast and will be short-lived. The rest of the night’s forecast remains unchanged. Happy to answer any questions.
Edited to add: I am not associated with Insomniac or EDC in any way and have no visibility on what their weather policies are.

2. Please don’t skunk up the thread by asking for or sharing miracles. If you choose to share links, keep them in the DMs/PMs. You just gotta poke around.
   
3. Please don’t award this post. While I appreciate the thought, your money is better spent on a good cause. A cause near and dear to my heart is Rainbow Railroad.
   
4. ​​No spoilers! If you caught soundcheck or a flash of the setlist, please spoiler tag it or do not mention songs by name!
   
5. If someone says the word "tempo" we all have to take a shot (or hit, or drink of your choosing (alcoholic or non))
