Road Runner Rollercoaster

Road Runner Rollercoaster, Steel roller coaster in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia

Road Runner Rollercoaster is a Vekoma Junior Coaster at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Its 335-metre track climbs a friction-wheel lift hill to 13 metres, then drops into two downward helices, dips diagonally under the lift hill and runs through two more helices before the brake run. Two eight-car trains seat two riders each.

The Road Runner Roller Coaster opened at Warner Bros. Movie World on the Gold Coast on 26 December 2000, modelled after Roadrunner Achterbahn, which had opened with the German Warner Bros. Movie World on 30 June 1996. The Australian ride cost AU$1.69 million, and its opening forced the relocation of the Looney Tunes Musical Revue to Main Street near the Movie Magic Special Effects Show. In Germany, the original closed on 31 October 2004 after StarParks acquired the park and dropped the Looney Tunes licence; it reopened on 19 March 2005 as Rocket Rider Rollercoaster at Movie Park Germany.

The cars are styled as ACME fireworks rockets, with Wile E. Coyote at the front and Road Runner at the back. Fans of the old cartoons will recognize the familiar chase played out on rails.

Children need to be at least 100 cm (39 in) tall to ride. Queues tend to be shorter early in the morning or later in the afternoon.

Instead of the traditional chain lift, the ride uses a friction wheel system to bring the train up to its starting height. This makes the ascent noticeably smoother than on most comparable rides.
