Hank Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Just wait until Ferrari pulls their sponsorship - then they'll be similar to Stunt Coaster! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted May 8, 2010 Share Posted May 8, 2010 Just wait until Ferrari pulls their sponsorship - then they'll be similar to Stunt Coaster! I was thinking the same thing when I first saw the picture! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback96 Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 BMW didn't pull their sponsorship... CF just didn't want to/couldn't renew the license. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Posted May 9, 2010 Share Posted May 9, 2010 ^ ooops! I'm sorry - I said that wrong. But, either way, if Ferrari goes away, so will the cute train covers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted May 9, 2010 Author Share Posted May 9, 2010 ^nah... they'll just remove the headlights and change the trains to all one solid color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbfan Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Those are not the F1 cars are they? The F1 cars seem to look different Here. Did they have a last second change? Or is this simply a different coaster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 There are actually TWO roller coasters at Ferrari World. One is a launched racing/dueling coaster, with cars that are similar to the Premier Backlot rides. The pictures linked to in the first link appear to be to this coaster, which is NOT the F-1 coaster. The F-1 coaster will use trains similar to the rendering shown in the second link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rcfreak339 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Ferrari World looks incredible. I hope this place is a big success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastersRZ Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Just as long as it doesn`t turn out like Hard Rock Park... The Ferrari brand is a somewhat limited brand, similar to how Hard Rock was. Yes, the theming is incredible. Sadly, I likely will never visit that place, as I likely will never be rich enough to venture over to that part of the world.

Oldiesmann Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 It will be interesting to see how this park does, being that it's likely one of the only ones in the country (for those unfamiliar with it, UAE is about the size of Maine). The ironic thing is, with oil being the major industry there, some of the park's guests may very well own a Ferrari or three... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Browns Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 here is the link to the f-1 coaster trains. Those look amazing. I can't wait to see them in action. Also it looks like its actually going to be called Formula Rossa instead of F1 coaster. I just hope the decorative wheels don't suffer the same fate as the ones on Top Thrill Dragster. I'm guessing these ones won't spin freely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_junky Posted May 10, 2010 Author Share Posted May 10, 2010 ^ i'm almost 100% positive that they are like the ones on the cars that make up the trains for backlot, not like the ones on top thrill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
