I would like to suggest the first XR6 "Forum" excursion.

Might make our cars seem a bit underpowered though.............

I have one thing to say:

BRING! IT! ON!

I received those pics in an e-mail the other day, pretty awesome! I would love to have a go on it.

WOW!!!

"I'm there, somehow, I will ride this coaster, oh yes, I WILL RIDE THIS COASTER"!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't get over the 2nd pic in the skyscraperpage.com forum. What a drop!!!!!!!!!!!! What an angle!!!!!!!!! Oh baby. It has to happen. I will ride that thing if it's the last thing I do.....lol. Not like I'm impressesd or anything.

Makes our Tower of Terror look like a "Merry-Go-Round" doesn't it.

I've ridden some crazy coasters across the States, but judging by the pics, specs and video of this puppy I'd say it takes the cake for the most awesome (and scary looking!) coaster of all time. Anyone that says they wouldnt be nervous waiting for this thing to take off is either a} a liar or B} mad!

Did you check out the speed specs? 0-120mph (193kph) in 4 seconds! Going by that spec you'd expect 0-100ks in about 2-3 seconds, which is pretty damn fast for a rollercoaster! B)

If you havent checked out the vid yet, its a must. Shows lots of animations of the dragster in action.

I just have to find a way to ride this thing!!

Thanks for the info Dagabond. You've given me a mission

Dude, call me mad, maybe I have a death wish, who knows...........I'd love it. : ) Wouldn't be nervous. The Giant Drop at Dreamworld, I laughed all the way down while my wife was beside me with her mouth wide open, she was doing the silent scream thing, was quite funny.

I'm also incredibly envious of you as I want to go on one of these tours where you visit all the major roller coasters. By the time I can afford that, the thrill may be too much for me....Need to seriously win lotto or something.

Where is that place, Six Flags? The "Viper" and the "Riddler"??? Love to go there.....yeah baby, have to do it!!! B)

hehe.. I think you'd find that once you were strapped in ready to go and the thing started to accelerate the first thing you'd think is "oh $hit"

I haven’t been on as many as I would like. Have been lucky enough to visit the States twice though (one trip dedicated to the East coast, the other West) and went to some insane parks along the way. Best so far would be Islands of Adventure run by Universal Studios. There's a ride there called the Dualing Dragons where two hanging coasters take off together and nearly smash into each other (at least that’s how it looks!) the whole way along while you do loop after loop and drop after drop. It’s a rush The Hulk is great too

Where is that place, Six Flags?

Six Flag's Magic Mountain in LA is one of the most insane parks on Earth. Nothing but hellish rollercoasters and rides. No kiddie rides here! :D I haven’t been there yet, but it’s certainly on the list of "must visit parks". Can’t tell you how many times I’ve visited the website and drooled over the pics and specs of the rides. I'm definitely a rollercoaster junkie! :D

Thats damn crazy, the lethal weapon ride at movie world scared the crap out of me.. no way id go on that!

that's damn crazy, the lethal weapon ride at movie world scared the crap out of me.. no way id go on that!

Yes it would be a lot different then the merry go' oops I mean 'Lethal Weapon' ride....lol. :D

I'm just insane and would jump at the opportunity of going to "Six Flags" (and now of course "Cedar Creek").

Only trouble is, If I go to these places, I would not want to return to Australia. :(

Hey cool, Import the BA XR6, convert it to left hand drive, watch American heads turn. Yeah!!!
