Manhattan Express Roller Coaster, Las Vegas

1 more image

The "Manhattan Express" roller coaster that is located at the New York New York Casino and Hotel is a real thrill. Look at the facts first:
- 4,777 feet of track
- maximum height of 203 feet
- drops of 144 feet
- speeds up to 67 mph

In this roller coaster the riders are experiencing the thrilling force of negative g's. Simulating a barrel-roll in a fighter, it rolls 180 degrees, hangs 86 feet in the air, then dives back under itself! Srceaming guarantee.

Vegas has a hand full of thrill rides. I have been on all of them, and heres the scoops.

New York New York coaster is personally my favorite coaster in vegas. A sweet first drop, and a lot of twist and turns that flow into each other smoothly...

Sahara coaster- about a 40 second ride, and only the first 5 seconds of it are good. Worth a chance though just for those first 5 seconds...

Stratosphere coaster and Big Shot- If u are affraid of heights, the coaster might scare u, but basicly it just goes round and round. I found the big shot more of a stomach lifter upper. I recommend the big shot...

State Line coaster- Awesome first drop, 3rd biggest drop in the world (as of this past year). To me the first drop is the only great thing about it. The rest of the ride u are just getting over that drop. Also some of the ride is jerky especially towards the last 15 seconds. Worth a couple rides though...
