Greetings, Christopher!
I hope you are having a wonderful time planning your Walt Disney World Resort vacation. It is a greatl time to visit as there is
so much going on at the Most Magical Place on Earth.
It looks like the GM Employee Lounge that is located inside
Test Track closed a few days prior to the attraction closing and will remain closed during the refurbishment. I reached out to a Cast Member to see if there was an alternate location being offered while the attraction is down, but they couldn't find anything listed. It appears as though GM employees will have to wait to access the lounge again once Test Track is re-opened sometime next year.
If you're looking for a cool place to get out of the hot sun and rest for a bit, there are some other great locations available in EPCOT to do just that.
CommuniCore Hall opened earlier this year and offers tables and chairs in the air-conditioning. I suggest bringing in a snack and drink from nearby to relax with. The Land Pavilion offers a ton of seating, attractions and dining options such as
Sunshine Seasons or the
Garden Grill Restaurant. I especially like this location because I could ride
Living with the Land all day. Throughout World Showcase, you'll find lovely spots to enjoy some shade and hopefully a breeze. My favorite spots are in the Morocco Pavilion, in the Italy Pavilion, near the Gardens of the UK Pavilion or the Mexico Pavilion.
Have a wonderful vacation, Christopher. If there is anything else we are able to assist you with, please let us know.
Magical Wishes,
Lauren
