(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/themepa1/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114Busch Gardens Tampa has long been renowned for its combination of thrilling rollercoasters and world-class zoological exhibits. In 2011, it will dedicate one of each to the world’s fastest land animal – with a new multi-million dollar coaster (Cheetah Hunt) debuting alongside an accompanying live animal exhibit (Cheetah Run). <\/p>\n
Both attractions are due to open on May 27, 2011, and excitement levels are building among theme park fans. Cheetah Hunt is set to be the largest rollercoaster ever built at the Busch Gardens Tampa, with its multiple launch sections and rapid twists and turns being designed to give riders a taste of what it’s like to be a cheetah hunting its prey. Guests will then be able to see the real thing in action in the all-new cheetah habitat close by.<\/p>\n
We’re excited about Cheetah Hunt – excited enough to put it at very top of the list of 2011’s most exciting new theme park attractions<\/a>. What is it about the latest Busch Gardens Tampa mega-coaster that has us so intrigued? Read on to find out.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Cheetah Hunt will cover a vast area, sprawling out from the Crown Colony Plaza area of Busch Gardens Tampa to cover large parts of the existing Edge of Africa and Nairobi areas. The ride will begin in the former Crown Colony Plaza monorail station, which is set to be extensively rethemed.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, accommodating Cheetah Hunt has had a major impact on one of Busch Gardens Tampa’s most unique and popular attractions. Rhino Rally, which involves guests boarding trucks before heading out on a “safari” that takes in some of the park’s most exotic animals, has been shortened<\/a> in order to make room for the coaster. This has seen the removal of its frequently-malfunctioning water section, which saw guests’ vehicles floating downstream on a section of “broken” bridge. Its removal was with dismay by some fans, with it being the only Vekoma Raging River Safari attraction ever built.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n On the positive side, the space does look set to be put to good use. As well as plunging through the manmade canyon area that was once Rhino Rally’s river, Cheetah Hunt’s circuit will also take in sections of the park’s Serengeti Plains – providing a pre-made, perfectly-themed backdrop for the high-speed chase.<\/p>\n Busch Gardens Tampa has selected Intamin to build its new ride, which will utilize Linear Synchronous Motors to propel riders up to cheetah-like speeds. The ride’s trains will feature cheetah skin theming, and will be able to hold up to 16 riders each, resulting in a theoretical capacity of 1,375 passengers per hour<\/p>\nStretching across the savannah<\/h3>\n
