Hollywood Rip, Ride, Rockit at Universal Orlando in 2009

I assume its a camera or the music selection buttons.

I assume its a camera or the music selection buttons.

Indeed it is! I just found this pic, along with a whole mess of others, at Orlando Rocks. The top is flat so it definitely has the selection buttons, or screen, what ever it is. And those MUST be the LEDs!

[DiSabNeil Peart makes me erect]

Aww, and I was thinking those bumps were the world's first roller coaster dildo...

[Hand 0f Timethe ghost seems to think there is a "Donkey Fairy"]

I'm drooling now.. And no, not over the dildo thought. Finally some footage action.

Here's a couple from today.

RIght on! We can CLAERLY a screen an a button on the first pic!!

[DATmanOMG! A TALKING MUFFIN!]

And note the camera mounted to the front railings on both cars.

[TrevorI Love Donkeys!]

And notice that the ridercam of the second and third row is on the headpiece of the right first and second seat (watching the train in the front). You can see that in the photo nº 9

[PCW_NutI think Intamin should make a donkey!]

And note the camera mounted to the front railings on both cars.

And what looks like the cameras on the back of the seats...there's that second little silver round thing on each seat excluding the back row which would denote that those are indeed the other cams.

I interviewed the creative director of HRRR last week. Here are a few interesting facts and features that he shared with me:

--> It'll feature 30 songs from 5 genres. 3 legacy artists and 3 contemporary artists in each genre. Songs to be announced soon! You're right about those on-board touch screens you're noticing on the harnesses.
--> A Day Ride and A Night Ride; The track will be eluminated and the LEDs of course will enhance the night ride.
--> 5 cars on the track at the same time (I think he meant 5 trains with two cars, but I will confirm)
--> A train leaves the station every 23 seconds!
--> A people mover like station. The train never stops in the station to improve the loading process.
--> Ride Capacity - Wouldn't give me exact numbers, but said hrrr will have the same ride capacity as the hulk

There's more about why they chose Maurer and on the music videos and hrrr web site. He mentions over and over all of the firsts that HRRR will have. And you realize it really will be unique. I'll let you know when I've got the full interview up.
