There is information in a Disney thread in the Race Together forum.

This will be my 3rd Disney (the half this year). I have stayed off Disney property the previous 2 years and had no trouble getting to the start. First you must leave early and arrive at Epcot around 4:15 - 4:30. You can wait in your car after you get there and stay warm. Also, use Hwy 192 to get into Disney and avoid the exits off of I-4.
