.:.Backlot Stunt Coaster

You are the stunt car driver for the climactic action scene of a new blockbuster movie. Climb aboard your own Mini Cooper and peel out through a parking garage, dodge near-collisions, race down stairs, and escape from the explosions set of by a menacing helicopter shooting machine guns at you by racing through a sewer tunnel and finally splashing down into an LA aqueduct. All in a days work as a stunt car driver!

Central Tip: If you sit in the front seat of this attraction, you get an awesome sensation of ejector airtime before entering the stairs scene. On the other hand, the best view for the climactic warehouse scene is towards the rear of the train.

Nice Theme, Boring ride.

The statistics show me that this is not thrilling in the sense of speed and height and it relies on its theme but its still something to ride.+ I have never been on a coaster that has fire in its theming.

You obviously havent ridden Volcano at Kings Dominion.
Anyway, it's still pretty fun, only on the themeing, though.

Hey, Gary. The name is one of the most irrelevent parts of the ride.
If you feel that strong about it, then just call it:
Steel Coaster!

This is one of my favorite rides in the park and there may be signs up that say " you will get wet " YEAH RIGHT!!! No you don't get wet at all they even drained the water out of it when Cedar Fair changed the name. I have to ride this ride every time I come ( which is like 20 a season ) It's my all time favorite ride there!! But you may have to wait a while the longest Ive ever had to wait is about 1 hour and 30 minutes. And there are yellow tents where the line may go if it's crowded don't ride it if it's in the yellow tents. Make sure you ride it first bc it's near the back of the park and everyone usually goes to the Nickelodeon Area or the Thrill Park place first.

This ride is so deceiving. I thought it was a kids' ride but then I went on it and it did the launch, the helix and all the breakneck turns, the part in the pitch black tunnel and dove UNDER the queue.. I was like WHOA WHAT THE HECK?? It was more than I expected, and IMO one of the most fun rides in the park.
