Ready to Rock 'n' Roll

The Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith is one of the fastest attractions on the Walt Disney World resort property.  Hitting a top speed of nearly 60 MPH, this launched roller coaster sends riders spinning through a bevvy of loops, corkscrews, and inline rolls, all fueled by the wailing soundtrack of one of rock's classic bands.  When I rode this four years ago, I found it to be a thrilling and fun ride--intense by Disney standards, but not bad compared to the average roller coaster.  It's nice that Disney World has the option of something more extreme, though, for those seeking it.

Riders await the launch on the Aerosmith-themed Rock 'n' Roller Coaster.

Soon, linear induction motors will propel the train from 0 to 57 MPH in 2.8 seconds.

There it goes!!

ZOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
