For adrenaline junkies seeking their next thrill ride fix, Speed-The Ride might be exactly what you have been searching for.
With a mix of speed, force and surprises Speed offers a ride that is unlike any other in Vegas. Staring from the minute you shoot out of the darkened tunnel and make your way up the first hill, you should know that you are in for something special. You may want to hold on tight as you reach the top of the hill as the coaster quickly descends leaving a wave of flailing arms, screams and waving hair behind as it begins to corkscrew through another dark, misted tunnel. Be sure to shield your eyes from the glaring sun as you make your way out of the tunnel, and you might want to hold on if you have a free hand because you are going to be headed for a loop at 70 mph. Once you get done clearing the cobwebs from the loops, the coaster makes its way up a 224 foot tower before plummeting backwards and safely delivering the passengers back to the loading dock.
Whether you are a roller coaster nut or just somebody that is looking for a ride that they will never forget, Speed-The Ride has got to be on your list of things to do.
