Speed: The Ride

Click Here to see my Speed: The Ride Pictures and Review

Las Vegas has once again added another amazing thrill ride to their count. Speed: The Ride will be located in the Nascar Cafe, through the Sahara Hotel & Casino, down the strip, and 224 feet in the air. You start out inside the Cafe when suddenly Linear Induction Motors blast you from 0 to 40 in 2 seconds. Right after this, you bank 90 degrees into a downward left turn that takes you 25 feet below the strip's road level. After manuvering a vertical loop you hit another launch that takes you from 35 to 70. After passing straight through the Sahara's main sign, you fly 224 feet straight up a tower only to drop back down and do the whole thing in reverse.
