Ferrari unveiled the fastest Roller Coaster in the world - Formula Rossa

Today, Ferrari unveiled at Barcelona the world fastest roller coaster. We are talking about the Formula Rossa, the roller coaster that will accelerate from 0 to 60mph in 2 seconds.
This unique machine will ride on a two kilometers (1.3 miles) track hitting 1.7 Gs of acceleration along the way, providing a fantastic experience for a maximum number of 16 passengers.

Using a hydraulic winch system, similar to those used to launch jet planes, the Formula Rossa is then shot out of the launch area using 20,800 horsepower and propelled to a height of 52m in less than 5 seconds.
