Other information
This ride is called Hyper-Twister Roller Coaster in RCT2, and the 4-across train appears as an alternate train for the Steel Twister Roller Coaster in RCT1.

In Real Life
The Hyper-Twister Roller Coaster resembles the Bolliger & Mabillard Sit-Down Hyper. These coasters can go to heights of over 250 feet and can have many airtime hills. An example of this roller coaster in real life is Nitro at Six Flags Great Adventure.

When using the narrow 2-across trains, the ride resembles the Giovanola Mega Coaster. Two of these rides were built, and both are in the Six Flags parks - one is Goliath at Six Flags Magic Mountain and the other is Titan at Six Flags Over Texas. The two rides are similar, with Titan being slightly taller (but having an identical height drop) and having an extra helix before the mid-course brake run.
