\n\tThe attraction, based on Universal\u2019s $7 billion dollar-grossing<\/a> film franchise, will ride alongside a similar coaster at Universal Studios Hollywood. That one is nearly complete and set to debut this year.<\/p>\n

\n\tHere\u2019s a preview of the Universal Studios Hollywood ride, which promises a top speed of 72 MPH:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tThe description of the Orlando attraction sounds a lot like its Left-Coast counterpart. And that\u2019s a good thing, given the Hollywood ride\u2019s impressive scope and ambition<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cRiders will experience the exhilarating sensation of 360-degree drifting as they speed through jaw-dropping maneuvers \u2013 including a 170-foot vertical \u201cspike\u201d that will send riders nearly 17 stories in the air over the outskirts of Universal CityWalk,\u201d says promotional copy provided by Universal Studios Orlando.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe attraction will replace the park\u2019s former Hollywood Rip Ride Rockit roller coaster.<\/p>\n

\n\tAs with Universal Hollywood, the current Fast & Furious \u2013 Supercharged attraction in Orlando will permanently close the year the new ride debuts.<\/p>\n
