A Real Parent's Story
My speed-demon daughter conquered Formula Rossa
“My 9-year-old walked onto the fastest coaster like a merry-go-round. She came off grinning. We did it four times.”
Read full story
I had heard about Formula Rossa doing 240 km/h. My daughter wanted to ride it the moment we walked in. I was terrified. She sat next to me held my hand and said you can do it daddy. We launched and I could not feel my face. She laughed the entire time. We went four times. She wanted a fifth.
