ABSTRACT:
An amusement car ride is disclosed which propels a car along a first straight track section, a curved track section having 180 degrees of arc and a second straight track section, in that order. Movement of the car is provided by a d.c. motor under control by a controller for energizing the motor with accelerating speed during movement of the car through the first straight section, constant speed during movement through the curved section and decelerating speed during movement through the second straight section. A tractor device is mounted for movement along the track sections and the car is pivotally mounted at its forward end to the tractor so that the car can pivot as the same moves along the curved section of track. In so pivoting, passengers in the car are subjected to centrifugal force.
