Crittercountry500

The Critter Country 500 was a rejected dark ride concept proposed for Disneyland's Critter Country.

With Disneyland's incarnation of the Country Bear Jamboree show declining in popularity, management was looking to replace it with a new attraction. One group from Imagineering, hoping to preserve the Country Bear characters and allow them to still have a place in the park, proposed a soapbox derby racing themed attraction with guests riding in ramshackle cars and running up against the Country Bears in a variety of wacky vehicles, with Henry serving as the race's announcer. However, the concept would be rejected in favor of building a copy of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh.

Trivia[]

The concept of this ride is reminiscent of the Hanna-Barbera cartoon Wacky Races.
