Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift coaster (USH) - Opening 2026

Wish we could've seen more of the queue; the car in a static launch at the 2:40 mark in particular has me curious. And with her saying the story is more focused on the stunts/stunt performers, maybe this'll be a mild return to a ride whose queue takes us "behind the scenes" instead of some sort of full narrative.

They don’t need to think too hard about a good story for this ride. The man purpose of this ride is provide a good thrill ride for guests. I think having a “stunt tribute” setting is perfect for this, especially in Hollywood.

Italian Job Stunt Track... we're so back.

(For those unfamiliar, this was rolled out at a couple Paramount parks back in the day. Honestly a pretty good effort for a regional chain. The premise was that we were running/participating in a stunt sequence for an Italian Job film.)

No, I agree. It's just funny that all this time people were wondering if there would be a story to this, so the possibility that it could turn out to just be a big celebration of stunt work instead is a totally welcome surprise. (And in a way, a return to form for the "movie magic" aspect of the park that I grew up with and have missed.) God, can this thing soft already!

 

[Hello]

Full video came out!

I wonder if the footage of the train crawling through the first launch is how it is going to be when it officially opens

Same, it seems like there's very little space for it, but I think it'd be cool if that car moved to give the queue some kinetic energy. I also wonder when the video was filmed, because the queue looked like they barely started

To me it’s not really a typical launch, but more of a rolling into the initial drop out of the station, similar the Mack spinners, which I predict will provide a pretty powerful pop of negative Gs

I keep seeing comments online of the testing where people are saying variations of “I can’t wait till it reaches full speed.” I’m pretty sure what we see now is going to be the final product in terms of speed.
Part of the experience is going to be the slow hangtime feeling on the taller elements. Plus the ride is already clocking at like a 60 second ride time so any faster will be a shorter ride.

Fast and Furious ride will be memorable for years to come

Oops

 

[Hello]

The thread isn’t gonna close?

So when will this thread close? After it becomes inactive for a certain period of time?

So when will this thread close? After it becomes inactive for a certain period of time?

When the ride closes in 25-30 years I guess?

There will be 2 threads - A general discussion (This one) and a Photos & Review when it opens (for spoilers).
