Hot Wheels SideWinder

Hot Wheels SideWinder, Steel roller coaster in Coomera, Queensland, Australia

The Gold Coaster is a steel roller coaster at Dreamworld in Coomera, Queensland, built by Arrow Dynamics as a Custom Looping Coaster. Its 900-metre track reaches 40 metres high and 85 km/h, with two inversions: a reverse sidewinder and a vertical loop, both located over WhiteWater World. The single six-car train seats 24 riders, four per car.

The coaster first opened as Big Dipper at Luna Park Sydney in 1995 before relocating to Dreamworld in 2001, where it was renamed Cyclone. In 2015, it received a complete theming overhaul with Hot Wheels branding, new trains, and an audio system.

The coaster's 2020 rebrand gave it a circa-1970s Gold Coast theme, with the track painted aqua blue and the supports white. Its single six-car train seats 24 riders and is themed as a vintage car of that era. The name Gold Coaster refers to the Gold Coast, where the ride has operated at Dreamworld since 2001.

The single train seats 24 riders in six cars, four per car, and the circuit runs about two minutes. Two inversions sit over WhiteWater World, so riders pass above that area. The queue was swapped with the exit ramp before 2008, so riders now line up on the ramp wrapping around the building.

The Gold Coaster's single train seats 24 riders in six cars, four per car. The original Arrow Dynamics trains ran from 1996 to 2015; Vekoma supplied the replacement train with onboard audio for the 2015 Hot Wheels SideWinder relaunch. Since December 2020 the cars carry 1970s vintage car theming instead of race-car styling.
