This is one killer coaster set to debut in May of 2000. Here are the statistics of it.
It will climb lift hill at a 45 degree angle 310 feet up by a new lift design. A conventional
chain lift won't do, because of the enormous weight it itself will be... It would have
to fight its own gravity as well as the trains. The new design will be an elevator
cable. It's strong and can carry quite a load. It will also be much quieter as you
ascend the 310 foot tower. Once at the top, there is an 80 degree descend almost straight
down 300 feet reaching speeds over 90 miles an hour! There are heavily banked turns
up to 122 degrees, which is almost an inversion, but not quite. If you look at the
diagram above, you can see the layout which is over one VERY large area. 6,595 feet
to be exact. At the end of the ride, there is a new braking system. As with Superman: The Escape, the Millennium Force will
implicate magnets to slow and stop the trains safely.
The MF (Millennium Force) will have the same coach design as Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens, VA.
Here are the composite computer images:
By next May, I will have conquered this massive beast. You will see my face on the pictures I put up yearly. I'm pretty sure that my face will share the excitement on this ride!
Millennium Force is the coaster that will rocket Cedar Point into history with 10 new world records:
