Project 2007 = MAVERICK

The Old West Was Never This Wild!
Maverick is Cedar Point's newest roller coaster! It will travel over 4,450 feet of steel tubular track. From the top (105 feet high), the ride will drop 100 feet at a 95 degree angle. The ride will include 3 inversions and a second launch while going through a dark tunnel. The ride has an average speed of 70 mph!
Some fun facts:
  • Maverick is the third most expensive roller coaster at Cedar Point ($21 million).
  • Maverick is situated on 5.5 acres of land in Frontiertown.
  • Maverick’s queue line utilizes the former White Water Landing’s loading/unloading station.
  • Maverick is the fourth longest coaster at Cedar Point.
  • Each piece of Maverick’s track weighs about one and a half tons.
  • Maverick features 10 banked turns from 62 to 92 degrees.

I forgot to mention...WHOO! WHOO! I'm so excited for this ride.

I think you are a wee bit obsessed with roller coasters no?

Me??? No, never. Jeannette (whom I go to Cedar Point with)...Yes, maybe a little (or a lot). You should see her at Cedar Point. She runs around like a kid in a candy store. It's great!

I'm on board, just tell me when.
