Kart Speed

Kart Speed is a one-cart steel roller coaster with a metal bar and one seat fit for two, along with no doors, located in the main area of Padilla Amusement Park. This is the oldest roller coaster in the park, and the only one as of 2012. The ride was loved and hated by many people, some saying "Padilla sure knows how to keep you waiting for your bus," and others saying, "Did I want this? No! You didn't even tell me what was going to happen?" Kart Speed is worldwide known for its great drop, which brings you up and down more than 1 million feet up and seven thousand mph speed while hitting the 'green rail'. It is now tenth place in the DreamLand Most Scariest Rides List.

Ride
The ride begins when you get into the cart, where, after a few seconds, it will start moving, at first slow. The cart will make a left fork, then another fork, but then immediately a right, all the while getting faster. It will make three more series of turns before getting faster and starting to get bumpy. Soon, it will reach a speed of 20mph, where you are getting close to what most call the 'green rail'. It will increase in speed, from 20mph to 40mphAfter going over the 'green rail', riders are urged to hold the metal rails parallel of the rider. The cart will start going up. Seeing when people get up to forty feet, they are urged with all their might to hold on. After the ride goes up and over the ride, it will drop down at seven thousand mph, then leading off some more quick turns, up a bump, spinning around, and down and around the corner into a seperate room, also known, as of 2012, as the Padilla Playground.
