==Construction==
Track and supports are made out of steel. The trains seat 6 people per car and have lap bar restraints. The train is held to the track by wheels above,below and inside the rails. two examples are Seel Force at Dorney Park&Wildwater Kingdom and Magum-XL 200 at Cedar Point.

==Other Information==
*The difference between the Hypercoaster and the [[Hyper-Twister Roller Coaster]] is that the Hyper-Twister can be banked on a slope and that the track on the Hypercoaster looks like Arrow track and the Hyper-Twister track is B&M track.
*In the original [[RCT]], the Hypercoaster was built by selecting the [[Steel Corkscrew Roller Coaster]], by '''NOT''' using inversions in your track design and selecting Hypercoaster Trains.

==In Real Life==
This ride is based on the 'Hyper Coaster' by Arrow Dynamics. The first was built in 1989 at Cedar Point and now there are five Arrow Hyper Coasters built around the world.[http://www.rcdb.com/8296.htm RCDB Entry]

The style of the cars and track, however, appear to be based off of the "Big One" at Blackpool pleasure beach.
