G Force

Another of Drayton Manor's unique thrill rides, G Force is a roller coaster with some quite remarkable features.

The track layout resembles the doodles of a toddler's scribbles rather than a traditional steel roller coaster for starters. Then, before your journey even begins, you'll also realise that there are no shoulder restraints, instead G Force only has a lap bar - which is a little disconcerting seeing as it goes upside down 3 times!

The ride then goes through an unusual lift hill sequence, taking you vertically upwards before flipping you over in an impressive backward roll with forces of -1g. You will then be at the mercy of gravity as the car is let go, speeding down the loop feature at a speed of around 70 kph, driving through a tight camelback and an amazing Bent Cuban Eight featuring two further inversions, and then a last high banked curve which leads back to the station. In short, this is a unique roller coaster that will send you through some amazing forces.
