I did think the Wonderland model was made by Vecoma; thanks for the correction Zamperla.Bounty's Revenge was similar in some ways to Huss with the added twist of doing the full loop. I'm fairly sure it was the first of its kind in Australia, arriving some two years before Wittingslow's Super Loop.

Are Mad Mouse roller coasters still being made? There are still quite a few travelling America and are as popular as ever but I haven't heard of any new ones coming online.

Well Paulie, you would need another $100,000 if you were to buy Speed as it cost $1.1 mil. Yes it is a great ride and a good ride when it comes to transporting, seting up, tearing down.

princess, you should give it a go! its awesome. and top gunner, whoah. i like speed but i dont think its worth 1.1 mill. hah. i suppose i will stick to riding it at the show and luna. but, if i ever hit the jackpot ill invite everyone around to have a go on speed! i highly doubt it though! :)

I think Princess could handle Speed. It's not THAT forceful compared to Insanity or No Limit... I find it very relaxing actually, whizzing through the Brisbane air... but it just doesn't seem to thrill me.

yeah i agree. but, i love it when your car is face down when your heading towards the ground. its intense then. but nothing compared to no limit. my first time on it i was shocked! but the next few times i really breather in when the harnesses came down so i wouldnt move around and feel the G's as much. none of my friends would come on any extreme rides like that at the show. the worst i could get was the zipper out of ant man. but i rode space roller, no limits, speed and slingshot alone. well i was with a stranger on the slingshot. just wish some of my friends would come on the insane ones. but eh, im use to riding alone. im not going to have anyone when i go back to america :( hah. at least i dont have to worry about my friends being sick if i ride alone. thats why i always sit away from people! ive had bad experinces before... i now have Emetophobia. hah. :)
