Race Through NY Starring Jimmy Fallon

[Mad Dog]

The interior is Top Notch. I was on the same ride vehicle as ParkPass. We had significant delays getting a person of greater size into the vehicle. Which delayed the experience by 7 minutes. Rather than being patient of "technical rehearsal" aspect he decided to take his frustration out on the ride. Everything was well built. I would take his criticism with a grain of salt!

:thumbsup:....Explains a lot. thanks

Out of Minions, Simpsons, and this, would those who ride consider this the better of the three?

A million times yes. Despicable Me has a small screen, low capacity, and very minimal movement. Simpsons never fails to give me a headache and has an extremely blurry ride video.

This was not meant to be an "E-Ticket" but a "D-Ticket"; only to replace a dated and not so popular attraction. Same as Disaster.

Approximately how long is the ride?

 

[Mad Dog]

I think that's his former remark which he kind of walked back in another subsequent forum post in answer to my question about it a few days ago.

No, that's a tweet from today, quoting his own "Dumpster fire" tweet from last week.

Will be home soon with pics, video, and thoughts. Stay tuned!

Video of the entry into the ride theater. This is basically Europe in the Air. Seatbelts are the restraints, which makes it a bit novel at UOR.

Cool. Kind of what many of us were saying for the past year, if so. Dressed up better version though.......It's first day of softs. People should fully expect technical problems. It would actually be rare if there weren't any technical issues.

If the seat belts are causing delays, it should be an easy fix for the grand opening.

I haven't been on the ride yet, but the least they could've done was pad the individual seats, especially if they were going for realism.

Technical rehearsals. From what I understand there are 5 sensors in every seat that all have to give the go ahead. It will be worked out.

I'm also calling now that Fallon and a musical guest will be part of the Rag Time Gals to an 'unsuspecting audience' for a segment on the show being recorded in Orlando.

Not necessarily.

Unlike other Universal rides where shoulder restraints or a lap bar comes down, they now have to individually check 72 seat belts before a ride can start, making it much more like Soarin' in that respect. The difference between Soarin' and Fallon though is it looks like there's no room for a TM to walk down to help if a guest is having issues unlike Soarin.

Probably less future maintenance required this way.
