Storm Runner By Jenny D & Jess T



This ride was added to Hershey Park in 2004 where it was the first hydraulic launch coaster to feature inversions.

Special Features:
 * 0-72mph in 2 seconds flat
 * 18 stories straight up and down
 * Top Hat
 * 135 foot cobra roll
 * Barrel rolls
 * Snake dive

 We found the velocity at this point in the barrel roll by the equation v=x/t. The length of the train is 18.3 m and the time it took for the front of the train to pass a point to the back of the train was 0.7 seconds so, v=18.3m/0.7s= **26.14 m/s**.
