Ride Elements
The ride had on-board audio via speakers in the back of each car, a first for any wooden roller coaster. The audio for the coaster was linked to an audio box at the back of the train. The ride also consists of two tunnels, one a "fly-through station" where the trains pass through over the top of the ride's boarding area and other guests. Other elements include several detailed pre-show rooms and pyrotechnic effects during the coaster's lap.
Fourteen months after its opening, the ride's audio no longer functioned properly. Currently there are no plans to run audio effects again and the speakers have been removed.
