VIDEO: POV on Silver Dollar City’s Outlaw Run
Branson, MO, USA — Thrill ride enthusiasts around the world will mark a first-of-its-kind ride debut at Branson, Missouri’s Silver Dollar City in Spring 2013 when the 1880s-style theme park makes history with the opening of Outlaw Run.
The park’s (SDC) biggest investment in a single ride in the past decade, the new $10 million ride sends passengers soaring through the Ozark Mountains on a ground-breaking wood coaster that includes several firsts:
- World’s steepest drop on a wood coaster
More than 16 stories, 162-foot drop at 81 degrees, nearly vertical - World’s only wood coaster to twist upside-down
A record-breaking three inversions including a 720-degree (double) barrel roll - Second fastest wood coaster in the world
Top speed of 68 mph, world’s fastest coaster on steel wheels
