Bullitt was one of the all-time great car chase films. What if the film was the basis for a themed attraction using a late model Ford Mustang and the CRC system? Wouldn’t that be cool? That’s what we thought, so above are some animated sequences to show what it might be like. (Kids: the computer models and animated sequences were produced by CCS and Haro Digital using Autodesk software products)

The mechanical concept for this Cantilevered Roller Coaster (CRC) attraction uses a “side-saddle” track configuration utilizing two rail sets of fairly common manufacture. The lower set is primarily centered on ride vehicle path, while the upper set is offset to one side of the vehicle support arm. For more about the mechanical principles of the CRC click here.

Are you a park owner with a CRC concept and that you would like to see conceptually developed, computer modeled, and perhaps one day constructed? Our design team can illustrate and animate anything you can think of. Please contact us at info@cantileveredcoaster.com to start the ball rolling, and/or for more technical information about the CRC system.
