Speed World
SPEED -- The
Ride is a state-of-the-art roller coaster launched from inside the NASCAR
Cafe entertainment complex in the Sahara Hotel and Casino.
SPEED
utilizes electromagnetic force to accelerate the coaster to top speeds
almost instantaneously. SPEED begins inside the NASCAR Cafe, where an
extraordinary force slingshots SPEED out of its launch site and over its
first hill. A steep drop follows as passengers travel 25 feet below the
surface through an underground tunnel before propelling them back above the
ground and then through a breathtaking loop.
