Fast & Furious: Supercharged - General Discussion

[Ultranel]

Why did ultranel think that was a prototype for a ride vehicle?

Team Member said so.

It looks more like a go-kart prop for HHN

Well that's just dumb.

Since you seem to be the all mighty wise one here, why don't you find out for us? It is there, and it slipped right under your nose. You told me once you know "things", So now I am asking you, what is it? Stop trying to fog the evidence I'm bringing to the table, and get to work.

Who cares what it is? There's a ton of crap backstage. It's a go-kart or golf cart with a roll cage. Probably for Bill & Ted.

That is not something any guest will ever be getting on in the parks. If you think F&F is about riding go karts, you are nuts.

 

[JungleSkip]

to get people to come back next year
no over lap

The next year is Nintendo.

Well I never said anything about go kart, So I guess you were referring to Teebin

 

[anihilnation]

If you think about it, even if this is just a "filler" attraction, this says a lot about Universal, F&F will probably be pretty cool yet it is not a top tier attraction, so if this is Universal giving us a "lesser" attraction, wow, that is still pretty impressive.

I really wasn't being snarky but was very serious in my question and observation! I will be the first to admit that I sometimes type train of thought without thinking of feelings.

Prototypes and Models are some of the most protected secrets of Universal Creative. Literally dozens of UC employees knew/assumed the KONG model was being sculpted in one of the sound stages. They even had lunch with the sculptors! But none of them could get them to talk or get into that building without the special credentials required. It was supermax.

Real prototypes are never left hanging around in somewhat open view. Often, they aren't even created in Orlando, but in a land far far away. The Hogwarts Express trains were built in the Netherlands!

So, I have said my piece.

LOL It has nothing to do with feelings, that's for sure. I'll put this to rest and I just hope you enjoy your Earthquake 3.0 tram ride with extended queue to BJ.

 

[quinnmac000]

I know people are worried about speed but with the use of fans and certain elevations of tracks/vibrations that can be simulated really well and hopefully UC works on that aspect more so than anything

 

[snayberry]

I'm going to say this again. I just want to go fast. :bolt:

 

[sjago13]

I'm going to say this again. I just want to go fast. :bolt:

Well then you will leave furious.

 

[Teebin]

@Teebin, any information regarding minimum height requirement?

I don't, but probably the same as another upcoming attraction, and I don't know the height restriction of that either. I would say that Disaster was the closest example, and I believe that is none.

 

[JungleSkip]

Kong's is 32 inches, I believe

 

[Teebin]

Kong's is 32 inches, I believe

Really? News to me! Thanks.

Edit:
LOL, that is basically 3 years old! (had to look up a cdc growth chart) What a horror show!

 

[NJBrandon]

And we have our first Demolition permit out! Bye bye Disaster!

 

[Cheezbat]

So is disaster closing at the end of Labor Day or the end of business Tuesday?
I'm curious because I won't be able to make it out there today and highly doubtful on Monday as well.

 

[AlexanderMBush]

Tomorrow I think is the last day. I could be wrong though.

 

[Teebin]

Was this closing announced? Sorry that my mind is so muddled with projects, I can't recall.

 

[Stitch_101]

Was this closing announced? Sorry that my mind is so muddled with projects, I can't recall.

Disaster? If so, then yeah. They gave the closing date in the Supercharged announcement.

 

[Cheezbat]

Yeah they said closing september 8...which is Tuesday. My question is does that mean it will be closed BY that day or closing at the end of that day? They didn't really specify.

 

[s8film40]

Yeah they really should have said "Disasters last day will be __"

I've heard it will not be open on the 8th so Monday would be the last day.
