Riders of Iron Menace begin their journey in the remains of an old steel mill and then climb 160 feet where they’ll hang over the beyond-vertical first drop before diving into the first of four mind-bending inversions.
Ride statistics:
- Nearly 2,200 feet of steel track
- A 95-degree, 152-foot drop
- Speeds up to 64 miles per hour
- Immelman inversion
- Zero g-roll
- Tilted loop
- 360-degree corkscrew spin
The arrival of Iron Menace will mark the first new roller coaster to be built at Dorney Park and Wildwater Kingdom since the opening of Hydra in 2005.
