its computerised to alternate drops

so riders cant guess even thugh its on a 4 way cycle

i went on it twice in a row, the different drop times are at random, the computer could pick between 1 and 7 seconds hold.

I went on twice .. First time dropped straight away and second held for a while.

I think it depends on what train you are on in the cycle. The first train out of the two does the short stop as not to keep the second train waiting. The second train does the long stop.

[SuperLyria]

there is no ifference!

[Rct3Mad300]

Reason Being why it didn't hold you for long enough is all to do with how busy the ride is, certain reason are to do with Block Sections, if another train is approaching the the lift hill whiles you are at the top they wont hold you for as long, i have once ridden the ride and we never stopped at all just straight over which was awesome because never done that before lol,

[TheGameAssasins]

this is also due to peak times if the ruide and park are busy it won't be held as long

i went on this 4 times in a row...aech time it held for about 3 seconds....on the forth time it broke down at the end
