About this Ride

A high-speed outdoor roller coaster joining Universal Studios Florida in 2027. Universal describes it as putting guests in the driver seat of the Fast & Furious universe, with riders experiencing the sensation of 360 degree drifting as they speed through a series of maneuvers. The layout includes a 170 foot vertical spike that sends riders nearly 17 stories into the air over the outskirts of Universal CityWalk. It takes the site of the former Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit.
