  1. Same as Superman Escape, they have a battery pack in each of the 2 stations, and 3 or 4 in the Pre Launch area, they plug into a little grey box on the back of each car, I saw this happen when Superman Under parked, and the last 2 cars were not in the station, and the ride parked, and they needed to manually do it, and walk us off the ride.

     

    I think most of the new Steel Intamin coasters use this method.

  2. DIDN'T THEY LET YOU STAY ON!? whenever that happens at Dreamworld, they let you just stay on unless you want to get off, they just bring it back, re check the harnesses and off you go again! the funniest memory was when this happened, they sent us again, it did it again... then they tried for a 3rd time, the launch was fine, i can't say the same for the brakes, we ended up in the famed BOG AREA. So i was happpy, we then had to wait to be winched out, then we had to wait at the exit for them to test it, and we were on our way again, then it had another Drive Trip, so i gave up on that...

     

    Um... the magnetic polarity would have been reversed i think, to pull the car back, it makes a awesome WHOOOSH VROOOOM noise when it does it. It only takes about 30 secs for it to reverse at Dreamworld, thats cause the op's are allowed to do it, instead of calling maintenence to do it. I somehow think our version is a bit more reliable though.

     

    6 Secs of pure airtime is fine by me anyday, along with alot of speed!
