Backlot Stunt Coaster

THE ITALIAN JOB Stunt Track was announced at Canada’s Wonderland, Kings Dominion, and Kings Island on August 12, 2004. It replaces Diamond Falls Shoot The Chute ride at Kings Dominion and replaces the Antique Cars at Kings Island. The ride opens at Canada’s Wonderland, Kings Dominion, and Kings Island on April 29, 2005 previews followed its grand opening in several weeks later on May 8, 2005. At the end of the 2007 season, all three Italian Job coasters were renamed to Backlot Stunt Coaster for the start of the 2008 season. The ride name changes wider by Cedar Fair to remove Paramount themes from the parks. In 2006, cedar fair purchases Paramount Parks and to remove references to the movies.

Backlot Stunt Coaster is a perfect family coaster that fits into the park excellently. It starts out with a fast launch, a big forceful upwards spiral and a large drop, and rest of the ride is smooth curves, small drops, and novel parking lot theming, complete with staircases, billboards, cop cars, parking garages, cargo crates, and road signs. The ride ends with a launch into darkness after being shot at by a chopper, a forceful section in the dark, and a final drop bursting out of the billboard and under a bridge. A fun family ride anyone can enjoy.

The wait time might be long and the ride might be super short, but the ride is just terribly AWESOME! So much fast paced action in here! I really like the beginning. "Heads back, all clear". And then, WHOSSSHHHHH!!!!

4/5 on thrill level.step below the big three rides of flight deck etc. Watch out for the start - takes off super fast. The ride has changed since before, no explosions or anything. Super short, lines move decently fast. One of the more fun rides at the park
