Backwards way better and Tower Terror is the same thing as ours.....California will always have the best rides....Dreamwork in Australia when I got on Tower of Terror I hit a Kangaroo going up the tower LOL ....
Now it goes over 100 mph and goes over 400 feet.... All the people who have never ridden this are the ones saying it's stupid. But the ones that rode it, love it ... Everyone who has not been on this before GO ON IT .. Specially since its even better now

Watching the ride from home on youtube doesn't scare me. It gives me this urge to go tomorrow. But when I went (last month) when I saw this ride go up and backward it gave me a headache just watching it. I really can't imagine myself in this ride. I'll be surprised if I do on my next visit. >.<
we have a better one in near chicago at great america that launches at 71 mph and goes up higher than that then goes backwards without slowing down all the way up the other side about 4 times!!!
@KBAFourthtime Which Roller Coaster Tycoon didn't have a reverse whoa belly roller coaster? Every one I've played has a reverse whoa belly roller coaster.
@SugarNSpyce118 I don't quite remember, because I had the compilation pack that came with Corkscrew Follies and Loopy Landscapes as well as the original, combined together.
@KBAFourthtime Yeah, I have that one too. :D I love that game! Ok, but to answer your question for real, this roller coaster or any roller coaster that doesn't have a complete track, having the cart go backwards is called a shuttle or boomerang roller coaster. Just like the "Boomerang" corkscrew roller coaster in Roller Coaster Tycoon. ;)

Never got a chance to go on the superman this way. never wanted to wait in that long line to go up once Lol Kinda regert it now tho. Went on it today face the other way! AMAZINNGGG =D
@cofiebean ya my cousins live in Valencia, I remember growing up in Encino in the Valley, you know what I'm talking about, having my season pass to 6 Flags every year, going there all the time, kicking back with friends, and just chilling out.
What people on the ride probably say. " Holy crap dude, we are going up so high. Yea I know man, how high do you think we are and do you think it's scary? I don't know but I bet we are high, if only we could see something other than the sky."
@RocketRodder Im not sure about the speed now, i believe its the same but, they now made it so you go up the hill backwards and they also repainted the track
:( good bye original superman. HELLO NEW SUPER MAN. go to there web site and click on rides and go to superman they are going to reverse itso you will be backwords but it will open on 2011
@Magnum570 You see the superman on the top? It used to go ALL the way up and ppl would hold on it to take pictures and when the ride goes down they are left hung up there and they fall.
@Agdollfashion WTF? even if it did go all the way to the top (which it doesn't) no one would be able to touch the superman on top because there has to be a lot of space between a riders hands and that statue because of safety precautions. Anyway there are no records of anyone dying on this.
I hope they make this ride like it was when it opened. It actually went farther than half way up the tower. Hopefully they will make it better. I am still wondering how they are going to have people cope with the acceleration backwards and not having anything to brace yourself against. If they put shoulder restraints on this thing that will be awful...absolutely awful....
to bad this ride hasen't gone upto 100MPH in about 10 years now. I remember riding it in 1999 and it gave you a much deeper feeling during the fall. I remember reading somewhere they only run it at 75MPH.
does it feel worse wen theres a drop backwards? let me explain my self for example in deja vu there a backwards drop does that feel worse then normal frontwards drops? some1 answer plzz
The ride will be closed until Spring 2011, in which a sign posted in front of the ride indicates that "something BIG is happening". One of the sides will be re-named "Bizzaro" and feature a backwards running car. Both will run at the same time, at full speed (rumored to be above 100 mph).
I went there on tusday of the last week of june.. me and my dad's girlfriend went on it without waiting in a line at all. This ride is over a decade old now and is getting closed down for upgrades on july 4th 2010. At least thats what one of the staff members said, they already took down superpman from the top.
Haha! Someone threw a penny @0:15! :D
