Back in 1999 the Dueling Dragons at Universal’s Islands of Adventure was my first major roller coaster as a teenager. It’s pretty cool knowing this will be the younger generations first major coaster for many! 🙌🏾

Dueling

Just found out from the official Universal website that Starfall Racers will have a 48" height requirement (3" less than VelociCoaster). I could definitely see this thing being a lot of kids' first "big" coaster!

@justimagine2403 the re-theme of one of the most iconic rides in the park and the addition of a clone that took 5 years to build compared to Universal building an entire park in thar span is not promising for them. All they really care about is cash. Reports show they intend to spend LESS per park the next decade than the last, which was not exactly impressive outside of say, 3 rides

Wow! This is incredible!!! So excited for this!!! IT IS HAPPENING PEOPLE OUR FIRST NEW PARK ANNOUNCEMENT IN WHAT SEEMSL LIKE FOREVER!!!

Oh man I can't wait to go on a real Mack thrill coaster. That company is killing it with the rest of the elite - Intamin, RMC, B&M, Vekoma, etc.

I hope this is a soundtrack for the ride because this song is getting me hyped up

This will be an amazing coaster experience for sure! Sign me up for opening day!

That down drop element after the launch looks nuts

I love this design! Nothing super crazy but looks like a blast!

Looks like fun!

THIS IS EPIC!

Looks like a masterpiece

Amazing!

Ok, I'm game and looking forward to it 😀

I’m so ready for this, I want to ride both tracks.

Amazing work, even more accurate now

Mack did a great job 👍

OMFG that is going to b be bullshit awesome, duel coasters so close yet cant collide. taking it to a whole new level.

Watching the first half of the coaster: 😐 Witnessing the Celestial Spin: 🤯

Looks pretty awesome. Not super high thrill, but still lots of fun!

Looks great

🔥🔥🔥

0:52! epic!

A thrill Mack in the US. LFG

Looks like this might have some nice floater airtime moments which I am all for. Will be a nice compiment to Velocicoaster with its ejector airtime.

Universal keeps outdoing themselves. This looks fantastic.

When this park opens the first thing ima do is go straight to islands of adventure-- it will be like a free fast pass!!

this coaster will be so pretty

👏👏👏❤️👏👏

I'm calling it right now: this will be a better racing coaster than Twisted Colossus

Where they come at each other from opposite directions... there is a barrier wall. I suspect this is the highest incidence of objects tossed at each other is the greatest. Whether intentional or not... the barrier walls reduce the likelihood that an object can come at you at double the speed of the coaster train. Very interesting!

OMG!! I can't wait. Dont even care about the wait time. Whatever it is, I'll wait because i know it's going to be worth it

I might be stupid, but is it two rides or one ride? Like do you need to queue twice?

@AmusementInsider

4 ай бұрын

You will need to queue twice yes

Well I know where I'm going when it opens! Take my money!

this ride looks so f**king cool! might be the highlight of the park. and the riders per hour will be high. being 2 coasters at the same time and all. i wonder if one has an issue if the other will just go. kinda like they do at magic mountain with colussus. there is a countdown clock if you want to race. so you have to hurry and get seated if you want the "race" aspect of the attraction.

It’s officialy been renamed to “Stardust Racers” after the lawsuit against them

I'm super surprised that they built an inversion over another track, that how Dragon Challenge stopped being a dueling coaster because two guests were hit with items falling from the other coaster.

wow

The velocicoaster killer and it’s from the same park. 😭😭🤣

oh this is going to have very strict loose articles policies.

Dueling Dragons died so Starfall Racers could live

I really hope they actually launch these coasters at the same time so they actually race, unlike Duelling Dragons which were rarely launched at the same time therefore rarely duelled 😢.

Except they will never race them. One of the main reasons Dragon Challenge stop being a dueling coaster was guests on one train kept being hit with items falling from the other.

@@TheBaldr they will race them, there's multiple racing costers in the UK, historic ones like the grand national, and modern brand new ones like Lego Racers, it completely defeats the object if they don't race them, it was only the forward facing loop element on the dueling dragons that had a problem.

The ride looks amazing, just hope there are lockers for those loose items because thats a disaster waiting to happen

celestial spin? You mean the corkscrew area that's been done many times before?

Second

I’m a little worried with this one. They took out dueling dragons because the inversions were causing items to fall out of pockets onto the opposite train. Seems like this ride will have the same problem.

looks insanely fun.🪐

Here

It’s all cool until you find out this is no where near velocicoaster level in speed, height, and inversions

Just hope the launch isn't a** like most other Mack launches. Maybe I'll get a good idea of what to expect when I ride Beyond the Cloud later this month. Layout looks great though and is super long

Love this idea for a ride, hate the track color(s) 🥲

To bad they won't run them together like they should be.

What’s the song? Also, I wish I was enough to ride this haha

You wish you were enough what to ride this?

Looks bomb ! And I noticed most of the "criss cross" elements one of the trains is slightly ahead of the other except the one with the wall. Looks like they learned their lesson with dueling dragons. I will say I still wonder about that element right after that 2nd launch on both coasters from a safety perspective (like something falling from someone that's upside down)
