It shoots up a <iq>90 degree</iq>, pure vertical climb into a 400 foot vertical drop that takes you from 0 to almost 120MpH (193KpH) in just <iq>4 seconds</iq>. The ride was manufactured by <iq>Intamin AG of Wollerau, Switzerland</iq>, and they say the Swiss are boring. The whole thing is basically a <a href="http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/inside_park/rides/thrill/_ttd/photo/layout.cfm">long loop that has one end vertical</a>. The cars are <a href="http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/inside_park/rides/thrill/_ttd/photo/train.cfm">look like dragsters</a> and each train holds up to 14 people. The ride starts flat, using a hydraulic propulsion system to get up to 120MpH on the flat, then shooting up the vertical track. It twists 270° and comes back down, hitting top speed again. All in 20 seconds.
