Theme Parks Travel: Universal Studios' Newest Coaster

September 25, 2008 at 12:00 PM | by kjb | 1 Comment

Earlier this year we were a little too wrapped up in The Simpsons Ride to dedicate any love to the newest attraction at Universal Studios Florida. We mentioned the Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit briefly but now we've got more info on it.

Set to debut next year, the coaster will be the biggest in the Orlando area, standing more than 17 stories high, with cars that whip around turns and loops at more than 65 mph. This is definitely one to try before lunch.

If the coaster itself doesn't entertain you, there'll be advanced audio and visual effects both and off the ride, so there's certainly a good chance that something will catch your fancy. You can even pick your own music before you take off on your adventure. Artist renditions just don't cut it, so check out some shots of the construction work here.

    Rip Ride Rockit

    ..is this some kind of ride designed just to humiliate us coz we can't successfully say its name aloud quickly?
