I just noticed something. Apollo's Chariot has a 210 foot drop and reaches 73 miles per hour. Nitro has a drop of 215 yet reaches 80 mph?? Does that sound strange to anyone. 5 feet is not enough for another 7 miles per hour. For example, Steel Force has a 200 foot drop and reaches 71 miles per hour, only 2 miles slower than Apollo's Chariot which has a drop 10 feet higher. Could it be that the sudden burst of energy at the top of the lift in the animation is accurate?? That would account for the extra 7 mph, no?? :-) Does anyone agree??
