List of Coaster Elements
• Slalom around gumball machines• Immelmann Inversion• Corkscrew• Helix• Hill• Double loop• Cherrybomb Mountain (signature)• Cy-Bug Drop
Coaster Theming
• Based on the Sugar Rush track from Disney’s Wreck-It Ralph
• Slalom, Cy-Bug drop and Cherrybomb Mountain based directly on elements from the movie
• Meant to feel like a video game racetrack
Signature Element
• Cherrybomb Mountain
• Large, tall helix
• Tallest point of the ride
• Can see entire track
from the top
• Two barrel rolls during climb
• Ends with a near-miss drop
under the Cy-Bug through
the middle of the mountain
Signature Element - Analysis• Matlab plot of Cherrybomb
Mountain path
• Simplified for ease of plotting
• Actual curvature changes
non-linearly
• Tangential/Forward Acceleration: 0g
• Normal/Vertical Acceleration: 1g
• Body/Lateral Acceleration: ~1g to 1.8g
• Actual: ~0.8g to 1.4g
• Assumes constant velocity of 50mph
Coaster Statistics
• Length: 6511.56 feet– 1.233 miles
• Max Height: 171 feet• Max Speed: 55 mph• Max Accelerations:– Vertical: 5.0g (< 1 sec)– Laterally: 1.6g (< 1 sec)– Forward: 3.3g
• Time: 2 min 34 sec• Cars/train: 6• Trains: 3• Passengers/hour: 1402
Further Improvements
• Continue to smooth out transitions
• Reduce some of the higher accelerations
• Shorten track to be faster, more compact
• Add more theming elements and decoration
