The World's Fastest Roller Coaster is Currently Closed. Why?

[@carsofdubai]

I live in Abu Dhabi, and the big thing everybody knows is a cable snapped, nobody knows for sure, but people have lots of connections, so it’s almost certain it’s a cable snap

[@CoasterStudios]

I am not surprised to hear this- I kinda figured that was the initial reason for its closure. The question is why is it STILL closed? Does it really take 5 months to manufacture a cable?

[@Coaster_Crash]

DO NOT ZAMP IT. It's probably just going through it's Xcelerator phase, and probably waiting on a part from Intamin. You know how waiting for that goes...

On the other hand, Superman Escape was able to get new Intamin parts for the launch and was opened pretty quickly (like 2 months).

Xcelerator is the reason I hesitate to visit new parks due to fear of being screwed over by closures. I've been to Knotts at least twice, and Xcelerator was closed all times.

Top Thrill and Fomula Rossa both closed for extended periods of time due to maintenance. Falcon's Flight is supposed to be faster and taller than both while under relentless sun all year round, I wonder how that's gonna go😮

[@namevone]

Realistically it should be more reliable than TT2 and Formula Rossa were. It's just an Intamin blitz but on a much larger scale, not a brand new model like TT2 is, and not a notoriously unreliable one like Formula Rossa. It definitely will have it's issues but I don't think it'll have as many as these.

[@jalenpadilla7744]

@@namevone The big difference is that Zamp has less experience doing the blitz on this scale, where this has become Intamin's bread and butter. I'm sure if FF has issues it won't be on Intamin's end--more likely Six Flags drama or because it's a country that doesn't do too many of these big projects.

[@VestedUTuber]

The thing is, Falcon's Flight will be using LSMs to propel an already moving train. It's not using a hydraulic cable launch to propel the train from a dead stop to over 100mph. As a result, the concerns are going to be less with mechanical systems and more electrical, and the failure state is less catastrophic (and I use that in the technical sense, not the "MASSIVE DISASTER" sense). Instead of a cable snapping or a hydraulic line bursting, FF will instead be subject to potential overheating, electrical burnouts and brownouts.

[@AG7-MTM]

I hope Intamin will take a page out of Zamperla's book, and replace the hydraulic launch with LSM's (Zamperla's track wouldn't match). The one advantage is the slower LSM launch could mean removing the trims (one note: the only launches I have experienced are at Canada's Wonderland, my home park)

[@nickwohrer1283]

Saudi has the unlimited money cheat code they’ll replace track everyday if need be

[@04taylorj]

I think Taylor might be onto something about the speed. These countries and these parks have big money. It can't be ruled out that they might speed up the ride and have it ready to go once Falcons Flight opens

[@VestedUTuber]

Honestly, I'm not surprised these big launched Intamins are closing for heavy maintenance and/or refurbishment. The records they were built to break were already pushing the physical limits of what could be done with a roller coaster. Heck, Formula Rossa had a huge trim run on the airtime hill after the launch because _if it didn't the ride would exceed safe G tolerances over the hill and in the first turn afterwards,_ meaning that the extremely overpowered launch was only there to claim the speed record and had no other purpose. They could probably cut the speed on this thing and remove the trims and provide mostly the same ride experience while vastly improving reliability, with the only cost being a loss of intensity on the launch itself.

[@billchief397]

Excellent point!

[@stephaniesuthers5635]

I wouldn’t be surprised if they were just waiting for a part. There’s a really informative channel by a former Six Flags mechanic called Ryan the Ride Mechanic. He released a video about his favorite ride manufacturers, from a maintenance perspective. Intamin made his list of least favorite manufacturers because they have a tendency not to stock replacement parts, so a simple part could cause a ride to be down for an extended period of time.

[@GoudLoodje]

Would be VERY surprised if they get Zamperla in for no reason other than TT2 has been closed ever since week after opening, and still no sign of it re-opening! Feel like Zamp really dug their grave with that one sadly, especially for the really major coasters

[@DiaryofaRollerCoasterGirl]

This is such an interesting mystery, and the conversations surrounding this can be endless. Despite being the fastest, and living in the extreme heat, it was actually one of the more reliable Accelerator coasters, so I'd be surprised if this was a maintenance thing. But as you so subtly alluded to, they're good at coverings thing up out there, just look at the situation regarding the Ain.

[@rct2nerd]

Kingda Ka just reopened from being shut down for a little over two weeks. The ride allegedly had a cable snap, and the park had to wait for a new part to be shipped. If it only took a little over two weeks to fix this part on Kingda Ka, than there must be a more serious problem for Formula Rossa.

[@danbetler408]

[@themagician96]

Superman Escape at Warner Bros. Movie World is an Intamin Hydraulic Launch coaster and it unexpectedly closed recently and ended up being shut for over 2 months. There was nothing obvious happening on the ride either, however the park did release a statement confirming there was an issue with the launch and new custom parts were being fabricated by Intamin to get it operating again. Maybe it is a similar situation for Formula Rossa, but as it’s a more complex ride, the manufacturing of parts is taking longer.

[@Amarok3011]

[@Sriramsaranga]

It's not a cable snap! Each time the coaster is launched, the track heats up, requiring water to be sprayed on it to cool it down. Unfortunately, this constant exposure to water causes the track to rust, which could lead to safety concerns if the coaster continues to operate. As a result, they've decided to refurbish the track. By the way, I believe the coaster is set to reopen today!

[@isaaclarson]

6:33 no, obviously if they were doing this, they complete the upgrades now, reopen the ride at the previous speed, and then up it /after/ Falcon's flight is finished and the design is set and can't be altered anymore (well, anything can be altered with enough money, but you see what I mean).

[@triple7marc]

Regarding the extended closure, Xcelerator was closed for FAR longer and reopened with the same hydraulic launch. Plus, that was a prototype and is 8 years older than Rossa, meaning it probably uses older technology than Rossa, which is why I doubt the ride will need to be completely shut down and renovated with LSMs. But then again, Rossa does go almost double the speed 🤣 As for the speeding up of the ride, it's a possibility but considering all the issues they had even reaching 149 mph back in 2010 and the fact that Intamin probably wants nothing to do with the model anymore, the park would have to somehow reach 156 mph with the same launch system that gave them problems 14 years ago, or go through a different company to speed up the ride. But of course this is all just speculation.

[@ThrillsofColdplay]

Oh my goodness an air compressed launch on this I can’t imagine that being real

[@SonnyHorrocks]

It makes more sense for them to convert it to a lsm launch like red force since yes it wouldn’t be as punchy but it will still be the same speed eventually

[@robertgeiss9985]

[@mackenziefritz8169]

Funny enough, when this video was posted Kingda Ka blew a motor and was down for a few weeks. So the tallest and fastest operating coaster goes to Top Thril- oop it’s still closed. What about Superman Escape fro- oh wait they had a fire by the maintenance panel. Guess it’s Red Force?

[@snoozeflu]

The worlds largest ferris wheel, which is also in the same area is also SBNO. It has some unknown issue and has not been operating for many months.

[@TheNinjaDC]

I believe these Intamin hydraulic coasters are like an old car. Once one part fails, a lot of parts start to fail. So they need to go down for a long refurbishment to replace a bunch of pieces, and Intamin isn't known for fast customer service. Look at Xcelerator, Storm Runner, Matugani (delayed launch), and now Formula Rossa.

[@TheKurtsPlaceChannel]

Very nice video. Thanks for posting this.

[@oceanthresher6184]

7:43 air compressed launches are definitely more powerful than hydraulic launches, hence Do Dodonpa being the fastest accelerating coaster in the world when it was open as well as Hypersonic XLC, but they have the same maintenance issues that hydraulic launches do.

[@arturobianco848]

Actualy they have even more points of failure. They might be more reliable as that the points of failure don't break down that often.

[@xBlixr]

Formula Rossa, renowned for its reliability, has rarely faced significant issues throughout its operation. The park consistently prioritizes daily inspections, typically closing the ride between 4:40 PM and 5:30 PM for routine checks. This proactive maintenance approach extends to other attractions, like Flying Aces, ensuring the rides remain in top condition and highly dependable for Ferrari World visitors. The current downtime, however, is attributed to a snapped cable and the ride's annual maintenance. Unfortunately, the extreme weather conditions in the UAE since January significantly delayed repair work, extending the ride’s closure. Adding to the speculation, rumors suggest that Ferrari World may be working to enhance the ride’s speed. Construction activity and new components observed around the launch section of the track have fueled this belief. While unconfirmed, even park staff have hinted that this might be true, possibly in anticipation of Falcon’s Flight, a competing rollercoaster set to debut soon.

[@concordebro2003]

It’s kind of weird for the park to close it because Kingda Ka is open and Great Adventure probably knows that the roller coaster is going to get topped

[@pabushcraft108]

[@SanitizeR_OW]

It was asked, "Can LSMs get the train up to 143mph?" yes, with enough space and energy. The faster you go, the shorter period of time the train's fins will interact with the LSM fins. That's one reason most rides utilize a swing launch. You get twice the bang for the back, and you get to say it's a feature or another element. It is totally possible to do it but a lot of math goes into determining how long and how much juice to give the LSMs.

You would think that any company that operates a hydraulic coaster would have a backup cable on hand. That way, if one snaps, you can put the other one on and then order a replacement. Especially a company like Ferrari World, which has plenty of capital. Definitely think there is more to it than just them waiting on a part like a cable.

I guess they could add a turbo button for the faster launch + raise the additional trims :) I like the idea of reprofiling the first hill and getting it all the way to 200mph. Even with Falcons Flight, I will want to make a trip to do both.. well as long is its not Zamped...

[@joelbolton7252]

My money bets they install LSM's to bring the speed to 160MPH even, and accelerate to that in 4 seconds. That way, they can change the sign to read "World's Fastest Launching Coaster" - which will be ambiguous between duration to top speed and top speed, even if it gets eclipsed one day by a faster (top) speed. The concept is that Ferrari cars improve on speed year after year, so the coaster can do the same...
