Virginia Vortex Arrow RCT3 Coaster

I still play Roller Coaster Tycoon 3 when time permits. Sure, the game is dated. The visuals are nothing compared to the stunning graphics offered by a simulator like No Limits 2. But nothing beats playing the roller coaster simulator game that I grew up with.

Last fall, I begun work on a dream “sequel coaster” to Tennessee Tornado at Dollywood. Virginia Vortex was born:

The roller coaster is a custom Arrow Dynamics looping coaster. I imagine Arrow may have created something like this had they not been plagued by financial problems. Take a ride on Virginia Vortex for yourself below:
