Ride a Ferrari Roller Coaster in Abu Dhabi


Bizarro, Millennium Force, Nitro and other attention-grabbing roller coasters need to watch their backs. Ferrari has previewed its Ferrari World Abu Dhabi GT roller coaster, and it promises to be one of the most memorable amusement park rides on the planet.


There isn’t a self respecting male out there that would not have some measure of respect for the Prancing Horse, also known as,  Ferrari. Their cars have been coveted by many a driver and that isn’t going to stop as long as they continue to deliver the performance like they have been doing for all these years. And who can argue with the styling. Of course this premium brand automobile manufacturer may not able to curb its prices for the average person but it appears like they have come up with a solution to keep potential and future customers very interested. A theme park in Adu Dhabi called Ferrari World is in the works and will feature what they’re saying will be the world’s fastest roller coaster and plenty of other themed rides to keep fans on the edge of their driving seats.

"The GT roller coaster is a racing coaster, which will send two competing roller coaster carriages sprinting along twisting parallel tracks on a race to the finish line," said Ferrari in a statement. "Each coaster car is a replica of a Ferrari F430 Spider."

It is the second of two roller coasters that will anchor the amusement park. The other is billed as the world's fastest roller coaster, with a speed of up to 125 mph that is intended to simulate the feeling of driving a Ferrari F1 racing car.

The roller coasters are two of 20 rides and attractions set for the amusement park, which opens on Yas Island here later this year. The Ferrari GT theme is not only carried on via the roller coaster, but also in the roof of the enclosed theme park. The roof is inspired by the "classic double-curve side profile" of the Ferrari GT.
For the records, Ferrari World Abu Dhabi is the world's first Ferrari theme park and the largest attraction of its kind. It will open on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi in the second half of 2010.
