Rock'n'Roller Coaster

[Tinker and Hook]

Can anyone help-friends and family have been talking about the rock 'n' roller coaster at MGM.Does this go upside down?Daft question I know but DD will not go near these things if they do so its best that we know which ones to avoid.Thanks.:blush:

[olly544]

yes it does but you can't really tell because it's indoors and quite dark, but worth it it was one of our favourites.

Hi

This is my favourite ride, I've only experienced the one at DLP, so I assume it's the same at WDW. There are three rockin' inversions, two rollover loops and one big daddy corkscrew. 125 speaker, 24 sub-woofer, 32,000 watt, onboard audio system. It's Brill:grin: :grin:
More details here www.wdisneyw.co.uk/atrnr.html

Enjoy

Brilliant ride! It's the only coaster I do as it's in the dark and I love the music. The launch is very fast but fantastic and the themeing is great.

Here is some info from the unofficial guide

Facts/History
There are five different cars & different Aerosmith tracks play in each; each car also has a unique number plate, shown below in brackets -
1. Nine Lives (1QKLIMO)
2. Sweet Emotion (UGOGIRL)
3. Back in the Saddle & Dude Looks Like a Lady (BUHBYE)
4. Love in an Elevator & Walk This Way (2FAST4U)
5. Young Lust, F.I.N.E. & "Love In A Roller Coaster" (H8TRFFC)
The coaster was built first, then the building was built around it.
Pulls between 4 and 5 big, fat, monster G's. That's more than the astronaut feel when they launch.
There are three rockin' inversions, two rollover loops and one big daddy corkscrew. 125 speaker, 24 sub-woofer, 32,000 watt, onboard audio system.
Each "limo" launches from 0-60 mph in 2.8 blurring seconds -- similar to the feeling of sitting atop a supersonic F-14 Tomcat as it blasts off the deck of an aircraft carrier.
A specially recorded Aerosmith soundtrack resonates out of 120 speakers in each "limo," including five per guest -- your average limo-for-hire boasts a whopping six speakers.
Throughout the attraction, more than 900 speakers generate over 32,000 watts of audio power, about as ear-piercing as an arena rock concert.
The 3,400-foot-long track is more than a half mile of sudden accelerations, dips, loops and twists and turns.
- At 40 feet tall, the larger-than-life stratocaster guitar that adorns the entrance of the attraction has a 32-foot-long neck which is nearly 15 times the size of the neck on an average stratocaster guitar.
Each "limo" seats 24 guests, about twice the number of passengers who fit in the average stretch limo.

It,s good but scarey, I scared my head off on this ride,as I,ve never been on a roller coaster before.

[winnie-T-P]

mmmmm-can you time it right so you get the car you want with your fave songs??lol

[jwalowls]

Love the accelaration on this ride

[smiffy33]

My six year old loved it. The music is load and certainly pumping. Fast accerlation and I must admit not many small kids were going on it. I certainly thought hey I'm getting too old for all this and I was shamed by my daughter who was screaming "again, again", It is brill but not for the faint hearted.

[TandCmum]

amazing ride, absolutely loved it, you get such an adrenaline rush, but it's not for the faint hearted and leaves you a tad wobbly afterwards. Can't wait to go back on it

[Vabeth]

My DD was 7 the first time she rode it! Me, being a big wimp, screamed like a baby the whole time, while DD was shouting 'faster, faster'!!! I'm easily scared by things like this but thoroughly enjoy this one! And make sure you keep your eyes open to get the full effect!

[madmumof4!]

My eldest who was 9 had never been on a roller coster, as he had always wimped out lol, but we got him on this manly because he couldnt see it beforehand, and he loved it!! NOT TO BE MISSED

[batleyboy26]

I am another person who does not do coasters and certainly does not go upside down, but I love this ride.

I will go on Space Mountain, but all the others (Hulk etc) - no way!

Hi Gaynor
My DS loved this one too he said its great but a bit tame and over too quick
all the same he loved it.:wavey:

[Scotsmomma]

I reckon this is the best one for coaster virgins.....scary...but leaves you wanting bigger and better...

[bluegirl]

This is one of my absolutely favourite rides:d: Yes it goes upside down but it all happens soooo quick that it is over before you realise. HAVE TO HOLD ON TO YOUR HAT THOUGH LOL:D

[Tinker and Hook]

Cheers folks, thanks for all that info, think we will give it a gooooooooo this time around:)

[marky]

Yep, I agree with all the above - I hate coasters but love Rock & Roller. Definitly worth trying as your first one.

[chris5117]

Ohh I just can't wait for this, it sounds awesome.

The "blast off" on this thing is something else!!! 0-60 faster than a formula 1 racing car. :omg:
You will be half way round the track whilst your stomach is still trying to catch you up!!!!!!!!!!! :confused2

[colufan]

This is a superb ride because you can't see what is coming next you don't realise you been upside down so many times, and yes you do come off a bit wobbly.

I have to say I have done Kraken and done duelling dragons but I hate this ride. I come off feeling like jelly and my neck really took a pounding last year. I am sure you shouldnt be put off by me but honestly it is the one ride I could do without in WDW - loathe it!
