http://coastercrazy.com/track_exchange/de ... p?tid=7417
Max Banking: 94 degrees
G-Forces: Vertical -- +4.0 to -1.2, Lateral -- Less than 1g throughout
Top Speed: 56mph
Speed at End: 39mph
IMPORTANT TECHNICAL NOTE: The OD Hopkins trains had a slanted front that allowed them to go through much tighter loops than the Schwarzkopf trains. On the smaller two loops the cars will go into each other very slightly (an inch or two) but this would not occur with the proper trains. It'll have to do.
Stratospheric traces of our transitory flight
Trails of condensation held
in narrow paths of white
The sun is turning black
The world is turning gray
All the stars fade from the night
The oceans drain away
Horizon to Horizon
memory written on the wind
Fading away, like an hourglass, grain by grain
Swept away like voices in a hurricane
