This machine is for starters the dodge challenger of Chance's early rides and by far my favorite aesthetically not far from it's brothers the turbo and the zipper. resembling a sawblade and it's flashing metallic colored buckets could be seen for blocks.As far as i've known it's design hasn't really changed at all,maybe only locking devices, but it's a tall beauty just under the skywheel,with the best triple color array of tubular bulbs.I have to say as graceful as it looked i don't think it felt as smooth as the others,but you had to make the thing work for you.Up here in canada sadly we don't see this ride anymore and all you ride fanatics, Do you think this may become obsolete like the turbo, is there hope ?
and is there any fan or past operator of this ride that could tell me more about this fading, spectacular piece of death defying art,and could someone give me the official height of this ride once and for all from ground to top mast. is it
67,69, or 70 ft high, your thought and a reply would be more than appreciated, thank you
