Aussie World launches Dingo Racer coaster
The Aussie World theme park on Australia’s Sunshine Coast has launched its first rollercoaster.
The Dingo Racer spinning coaster, which was built by Reverchon Rides, promises to take parkgoers on a journey through a Mad Max themed attraction close to home.The ride has a capacity of 960 people per hour, seats four people per car, and is open to anyone over the height of 120cm. It travels along the coaster track up to 14m in the air before twisting and turning along the track up to speeds of 72km/h.
The experience begins when visitors enter the queue ride, with a life size model of a dingo,“taking you along for the ride as he tries to escape a forbidden area, leading to his Mad Max style car.”
“As the second new major attraction to open at Aussie World in the last year, the Dingo Racer is helping to expand our experiences and in turn, we expect it to attract a more diverse range of holidaymakers and locals,” said Aussie World Manager Shannon Fay.“As the second new major attraction to open at Aussie World in the last year, the Dingo Racer is helping to expand our experiences and in turn, we expect it to attract a more diverse range of holidaymakers and locals.
“The ride has certainly got a unique spin of its own, with the seven cars moving around the track while simultaneously spinning 360 degrees as it travels.”The ride was officially opened in June by Minister for Tourism, Innovation and Sport and Minister Assisting Premier on Olympic and Paralympic Sport and Engagement, the Honourable Stirling Hinchcliffe.
