Did you guys noticed this? the newest fastest rollercoaster on earth? 240km/h (I don't know the speed in mph). Well, just enjoy the picture



what do you think?

[-=TK=-]

I think it's cool, but is 240km/h or 150 mph not a bit fast??( i don't know how much human body can handle in speed) but i think it is a intense ride with some fast turns etc.

... Another new fastest one?!

Where's this?

[Jogumpie]

Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates.

[dylan]

Dang Dubai is coming up with crazy stuff. First the worlds tallest building and now this. Well 150MPH is some serious speed. mI can't imagine going that fast. That would be some serious G-force.

[Eggo]

Wow, that's fast. I'd be out of it for a while if I rode that...

[~stεεlspectrum~]

Just because it's faster does not necessarily mean more G-forces...although I'm sure that thing would be insane to ride.

[lazor 22]

Yea these and 305's tracks are the same. I remeber trying to figure out who was building them.

This is going to be some terrorist attractor. There going to have to put extra securities before you ride i guess. This thing is smexy. I wonder what that colors will be. (or is it just white..)

^ Who in the world would bomb a freaking roller coaster.
Planes are a good target as they send a message and they make headlines alll over the world..
but.. A roller Coaster?!

[BGEurope Kid]

I'm assuming white or I think they would of painted it already, but really this ride looks intense.

[Kraken]

Is it a launched or will it have a lift?

[maarten12]

It is launched, and here's a vid of someone who recreated the coaster in no limits. Enjoy (I try to find more information )

YouTube - F1 Coaster (Abu Dhabi / new fastest coaster on earth 2010)

[RidesByDaan]

looks like a nice project for my in the summer lol
i dont think i can make the coaster running its way to fast:)

[maarten12]

^ ok , here's another vid (watch at 5.00) I think we've got to wait until they'll release more information! But, if you find some more, please post it here.

[RidesByDaan]

no i cant make it in the summer of 2010 than i am going to a new wol\rld reccord so no place for that

[JPCoaster]

It's acceleration that kills people, not speed (just think you cruise at around 600mph on planes )

Yea these and 305's tracks are the same. I remeber trying to figure out who was building them.

It's Intamin

Is it a launched or will it have a lift?

hmmm....this airtime will kill people

Seriously?

Dubia is just crazy money :/ And personaly I don't see the atraction of going to a desert for those sort of prices, and the heat is beyond rediculous, hense why they've built a huge building for the launch and que, otherwise you'd burn to death.

[pkiknex25]

For all of you saying how intense this will be, it won't be any different. The size of these crests and turns are HUGE! The force of a high speed turn with a large radius is the same as a smaller turn at lower speed.

The building is just as massive too. Obviously you guys know this whole thing is not all amusement park.

[maarten12]

^ yes, I'm sure that is the thing, otherwise they would've never built this HUGE thing .
