The 60° lift hill is notable as well.

- Lift hill maximum slope - 60°
- Maximum height above ground - 95 ft
Vehicles
- Twister Cars
- Twister Cars (reversed)

Other Information
Due to the constraints of the track and car design, corners are not possible. To build a complete circuit, special transfer tracks are used to transfer between a lower and upper track.
Real Life
The Heartline Twister Roller Coaster is based off of the Pipeline style coasters designed by the Japanese company TOGO. A real world example of this ride is Ultra Twister, formerly located at the now defunct Six Flags AstroWorld.
