First Photo of the Ferrari World Abu Dhabi F430 GT Roller Coaster


In a few months time, the rich and famous of our world will have their own automotive 'Disney Land' with the opening of the new Ferrari World theme park in Abu Dhabi. Among the twenty or so rides and attractions featured at the park will be the GT roller coaster and this here is the first photograph of the car .

Each coaster vehicle in this particular ride is a replica of a Ferrari F430 Spider that can seat up to four people. According to Ferrari, the GT Racing Coaster will send two competing roller coaster carriages dashing along twisting parallel tracks on a race to the finish line.

Aside from the GT Racing Coaster there will also be an F1 ride which is said to be world's fastest roller coaster travelling at speeds in excess of 200 km/h (125mph) and shooting passengers more than 62 m through the roof and back down again to offer them a G-force experience.

The world's first Ferrari theme park and the largest attraction of its kind is scheduled to open on Yas Island in Abu Dhabi in the second half of 2010. For more information on the park, click here to check out our previous post.
