Kingda Ka

The worlds tallest and fastest coaster in the universe. It is hydrolically launched with an engine with 4, 500 horsepower engines, and a huge wench that a catch car is attatched to, that hurls the ride down the track. It reaches speeds of up to 128 miles per hour and heights of 456 feet. The braking on Kingda Ka, has no friction and no contact with the ride. It is done with edi-current brakes. Kingda Ka is located at Six Flags: Great Adventure, Jacksonville, New Jersey. Kingda Ka has a 45 degree twist on the way up and a 425 degree turn going downwards, which the ride again screams past the 100 mile per hour mark. A legend in the amusement industry, and will be remembered forever.
