For Your Saturday Enjoyment...

Kingda Ka



Kingda Ka is a roller coaster located at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey, USA. It is the world's tallest roller coaster, and was the world's fastest until Formula Rossa opened in November 2010. The train is launched by a hydraulic launch mechanism to 128 miles per hour (206 km/h) in 3.5 seconds.  At the end of the launch track, the train climbs the main top hat tower, reaching a height of 456 feet (139 m). Kingda Ka is 3,118 feet (950 m) long.

Yawn. Ya know what Heaven's gonna have? A 100X100 mile coaster, fulla flipsNturns never before seen; it'll go from standing still to Mach 7 in 30 seconds; and all over the planet the size of Betleguese, there'll be RCs in every town. Meet me there, girl. I'd love to snuggle with you. God bless you.

Oh geez...no way would you see me on that thing! I thought there would be more than that, maybe a few more hills, that was really a short ride.
