Hopi Hari Theme Park 2011 - Brazil
BDG replied to Lucas.Almeida's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Nope. This is the ride going to Hopi Hari: Two more of these are coming to the CineCitta park in Italy and Chongqing Safari Park in China. It looks very similar to Colossus, but the first drop has been changed and everything is slightly bigger and smoother. The track itself is also bigger (75 cm --> 90 cm) and it will use a cable lift. -
