While watching the Indy 200 on ABC, I noticed the pond, or rather, ponds, which undoubtedly made from the extraction of dirt to build up the banking for the curves of the Walt Disney World Speedway, was the very familiar shape of our good buddy, Mickey! It was easy to see from the Goodyear Blimp circling the track and property!

If you look at the Disney Race Track from a satellite photo, you can see Mickey's head right in the middle of the track.

Found this 'hidden mickey' bumbling around Google maps - it presence seemed laughable until I realized what part of Florida I was looking at. I'm almost certain its been sighted/mentioned/confirmed/photographed/identified/called-out before, but after googling until I my eyes can no longer focus properly I have been unable to find any reference to this Mickey.
It appears immediately south of a rather large parking lot. I'm guessing its a visitor/customer lot judging from its sheer size and the trams. Given that this Mickey is so close to what I assume is a publicly accessible site suggests that it is not 'behind the scenes' or in some other off-limits or 'employee only' area. Anyone should be able to see and identify it from the ground if they care to look.
You can follow the asphault and monorail tracks to other points of interest.)
