XceleratorRoller coasterMinimum height to ride: 52 inches DescriptionAn Intamin launch coaster, themed to be flame-emblazoned '57 Chevys, taking you from zero to 82 mph in 2.3 seconds. You launch up 200 feet in the air, then drop straight back down. -- Last edited by Marcos Raxtun [Update this description | Read previous versions] PhotosSafety
Readers' Opinions
Brandon -- you're right on with your assessment of this ride. I LOVE that launch, and the view from the tower is great, and so is the rest of it -- what little there is, I mean. And that's the problem. It just really needs to be twice as long for me to give this a top rating. Close but no cigar, but it IS certainly worth one ride per visit. - Paul Clemens This is a good coaster, with a sweet launch. The apex is a great section of the ride, as is the drop at the end... all of this happens too quickly though and the ride is over. Too short of a ride for me to consider a spectacular coaster. - Brandon Mendoza Cool ride the launch is amazing - Jason Kelly One of the most intense launched roller coasters in the western United States, but a bit on the short side. - AJ Hummel A thrilling coaster that although lacks in theme, it's rich in excitement and intensity. The airtime on top of the first tower was very good. Liked it. Ride it even when the line is at its longest because it's worth the wait. - Adriel Tjokrosaputro The best ride at Knott's. The launch packs a wallop, the layout is more interesting than most Intamin rocket coasters, and the dragster themeing is actually pretty good. Lots of fun. - Chuck Campbell DAT BLAST WAZ KRAZY. NEVA BEEN ON A RIDE LYK DIz SO I WAZ LYK WHOA. WE SAT IN DA FRONT TOO. DAMN VERY FUN RIDE VERY FAST VERY THRILLING. CANT MISS - Anthony Hill My favorite ride in the park and one of my favorites anywhere else! I love it! I like sitting in the front the best. Super fun! When you go to Knott's you should definatly go on this ride! - Chloe ! This is my favorite ride at Knotts. The height, speed, and airtime are great. And lewis bryces, the rides at Disneyland are kiddie rides - Marcos Raxtun Makes the coasters at Disneyland seem like kiddie rides!!! Hahaha!! A must for any coaster fan at all! - lewis bryces |
