“West Coast Racers” is measured and effusive ride
By Alfonso De Elias
Under an excellent job by six flags, CA with its newest roller coaster, the dual-track West Coast Racers will be the best ride of your life. The world’s first 360-degree vertical loop and the West Coast’s tallest pendulum ride. The tracks are full speed into the helix’s so you will have some real airtime and intensity. The best part of this section is when you feel like you could touch the competing car’s passengers.
The upcoming ride is collaboration between West Coast Customs and Six Flags, being promoted as the world’s first launch version of a racing roller coaster. With two-car trains, each holding a total of 12 riders, launch simultaneously from the station. They interact over thirty times throughout the course of the track, reaching a maximum speed of 55 mph (89 km/h) as the two trains cross the finish line.
