- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Sit back, hold on tight and prepare for the evolution of the classic Gerstlauer Bobsled model with Ridge Runner! This family thrill coaster utilises tire-driven launches to fire cars up to a top speed of 45mph before sending riders backwards through the second half for an added level of thrill!
Stats:
Height - 63.4ft
Length - 3097.24ft (without storage)
Top speed - 45mph
Acceleration Gs - 0.6G
Highest positive Gs - 3.0G
Lowest negative Gs - 0.1G
Inversions - 0
Elements in order:
Tire-driven launch (45mph)
Switch track with a forwards spike
Reverse tire-driven launch (35mph)
Switch track with a reverse spike
Very nice concept. Though would need block brakes on the spike side of each switch track.
Good point
The drive wheels are powerful 😵💫
Drive tire launches can pack a punch! It takes 3 or 4 seconds to go from around 5mph up to 45mph, that's about right for such a small vehicle 😁
@@airbornecoasters2003 Yes, I am always amazed about how fast the Thirteen lift hill is. I know it is not incredibly fast but still faster than a normal mechanical chain lift hill. Very neat coaster aswell.
This is a very cool concept. Subbing for this. On criticisms, Benjacobs and Zacdavid are totally right… other than that, nailed it.
I could never ride enough of these gerstlauers they are soooo much funnn
This is an inventive concept and neat little ride, I just almost wish we would have seen a couple more hairpin turns or simple helix or something as a nod to a more traditional Gerstlauer Bobsled layout. This reads more like a Firelauncher or Pegasus express, but there's nothing inherently wrong with that.
💯
OMG! This looks great! Add a couple of spinning options and it would be even more amazing 😍
This looks so fun!! :)
