Disneyworld: Rock n' Roller Coaster

I was recently on RnR and my head banged a little bit but it didn't hurt. When I got off I looked and I saw that Disney put cusioners on the OTSRS. Why can't more coasters with OTSRS have this pad????

Cause Disney spent money on their ride, and kept it in good condition, something some parks rather not do. Also the fact that Disney designed it probably had effect on its smoothness, I really wanna get to Disneyland Paris to ride Space Mountain I hear its the best, I downloaded the soundtrack and its great!

I just rode it a couple of days ago.

The thing that really surprised me is how much it reminds me of Flight of Fear in terms of the launch feel (though I'm pretty sure it's LSM, not LIM) and the apparent layout of the ride. Anybody know where I can find a diagram of the ride layout? Anyway, it's a 6-car train with an extended nose on the lead car and an extended tail on the last car. Pretty much the standard Vekoma looping coaster seating inside the cars except for the speakers on either side of the headrest. Inversions? Has it got any? You can almost tell, but because it's all in the dark, you can't really tell where anything is going in the ride building.
Overall, a fun ride, very re-rideable (though I only got to ride it once) but more of a headbanger than the 'new and improved' Flight of Fear.

It's an excellent ride.  Be there when the park opens and you can usually get in a couple of rides before the lines build too much.  Then you can get a fastpass for a later ride without much wait.

Well Dave, not a 'diagram' per se, but how about a picture? ( http://www.rcdb.com/installationgallery769.htm?Picture=2 )
From all accounts, it's the same as Superman: The Ride @ SFH so you should be able to get a good idea of the layout from these pics.

Well I heard that in a couple of years they are taking out the Space Mountain @ Disneyland and replacing it with a clone of the one in Paris to celebrate Disneylands 50th.  So you might not have to go all that way.

I am assuming you heard that from your uncles brothers niece who has a friend with a step-brother who works at Disneyworld who heard it from an email from someone who knows someone at Disneyland?

Not gonna happen.

No chances at all for a DLP Space Mountain at Disneyland. Why? The DLP Space Mountain cost too much! Think of... 100 millions $ US for the DLP version and that's a scaled down version of the original... Also, the catapult system is way too complicated and the motors whould have problems in the California heat.
