What are the world records for theme park rides?

Question

Like I know that the ultimute in Lightwater Valley is the longest coz it is like over a mile long and Eejanaika at Fuji-Q Highland (Fujiyoshida, Yamanashi Japan) has the world record for 14 inversions. What are the rest of them?

Answer 1

there is colossus at Thorpe park UK the worlds first 10 looping roller coaster stealth at Thorpe park that shoots you out at 0 83 in 2 seconds and Rita queen of speed at Alton towers that shoots you out at 0 100 in 2.5 seconds all in the UK the first roller coaster with a vertical drop at 90 degrees is cliff hanger in Taiwan the first flying coaster in the world is air at Alton towers the fastest roller coasters in the world are kinda ka at 128 mph top thrill dragster cedar point 120 mph and the superman ride at six flags magic mountain which goes 100 mph these are in the USA

Answer 2

Ultimate at Lightwater Valley is long, however, it is NOT the longest coaster. Steel Dragon 2000 in Japan is 8,133' 2" while Ultimate is only 7442'.

Height: 1st) Kingda Ka 456'
2nd) Top Thrill Dragster 420'

Speed: 1st) Kingda Ka 128 M.P.H.
2nd) Top Thrill Dragster 120 M.P.H.

Colossus at Thorpe Park has 10 inversions the most of any coaster. 10 inversion coaster at Chimelong Paradise also has 10. I don't see why you said Eejanaika had 14 inversions. It has 2.

Answer 3

For a start Oblivion is only 87.7 degrees so it aint vertical, n speed at Oakwood is more than 90 degrees cos it cuts back in on itself. Also Kingda Ka in one of the six flags parks in America is 425 (i think)ft high and is the tallest.
Also, the best records: The worlds tallest, fastest, steepest rollercoaster-The Pepsi Max-U can tell that sign was put up when it was new

Answer 4

First to break 200 ft - Magnum XL200 at Cedar Point
First to break 300 ft - Millenium Force at Cedar Point
First to break 400 ft - Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point
Longest - Steel Dragon 8133 ft in Japan ( The Ultimate is only 7450 ft). For more records go to http://www.ultimaterollercoaster.com/coasters/records/

Answer 6

highest was top thrill at cedar point till some stupid japenese park made one like 5 feet higher so it could be highest it did the same for speed even though top thrill was made first and the japenese one is exactly like top thrill. best park is cedar point for like the 13th straight year. most roller coasters is cedar point i think 14-16 one of them. Lake compounce is oldest. 2nd oldest is cedar point. first coster with a modern day loop is in six flags magic mountain. 2nd is corkscrew in cedar point. wicked twister in cedar point is the world's tallest, fastest and first double-spiraling impulse coaster. also almost every single one of cedar point's coasters were the fastest tallest and most whatever in whatever catorgory they were in. cedar point has 2 of the united states longest roller coaster and number 7 in the entire world cedar point has the most carousels in the entire world
