Six Flags New England announces Quantum Accelerator roller coaster

Posted | Contributed by Jeff

Six Flags New England has announced that a new roller coaster, Quantum Accelerator, will become the park’s twelfth coaster and the first dual-launch straddle coaster in New England. Riders will get onto a hover-bike vehicle and straddle the seat, grip handlebars, and lean forward.

As I get older and enjoy aggressive coasters less, I have been appreciating these types of rides and am happy they're seeing a bit of a renaissance. Big Bear Mountain, DarKoaster, Wave Breaker, and similar rides are a ton of fun and I could ride them all day.

First duel launch? Wave Runner at Sea World Texas has two launches, Hagrid has what 4? Solid edition otherwise though these are fun.

first dual-launch straddle coaster in New England.

Of which there is what, one other? The Zamperla moto coaster at Darien? I love marketing.

Darien Lake is in New York which is not New England. New England consists of every state East of NY: ME, NH, VT, MA, RI, CT.

STRADDLE. Also, I am not particularly mature.
