Bobsleigh Coaster

Construction
Track is a semi-circular channel, supported by tubular steel posts. Cars run on small wheels, and are free to take their own course along the track, guided only by the curvature and gradient of the channel.

Other Information
Track layout requires very careful planning, as cars can crash off the track at the crests of hills if going too fast.

Rule of thumb: never build upward slopes on Bobsled roller coasters. Always use helixes if attempting to go upwards.

In Real Life

 * There are two companies that have made the multi-car version of the bobsled coaster. Mack Rides and Gerstlauer have both made over 20 bobsleds around the world and although no new bobsled has been built recently they are still among the most popular rides at their respective parks.
