Seriously is the ride realy 17 years old? That's impressive and makes me feel old! Its not a huge deal anyway, really the most impressive stunt the ride performs is locking the gondola, doing the really slow inversion before wiping the gondola around at the top, that is the most intense ride sensation. The opossing rotation of the arms also looks cool from the ground but is much tamer whilst on the ride. Still definately the number 1 flat ride out there.

^the claw!?

@Lotl_90, I might have got the program numbers a little bit mixed up. But from what I was told the program that it was running just before the engine malfunctions was similar to the one it ran up until the dates mentioned but with a bit more before the final trick. But yeah, it has had it's programs moved around a few times in it's life. I say bring back the Xtremeworld program!

Wipeout is petrol powered!!?!??

if so it explains why the new ride budget is so small

@Gazza, Crap... >_< I meant motor haha.

Today was my first time back at Dreamworld since it was on the kiddy cycle and it was good to see it running like the good old days. Shame it broke down after a couple of hours.
