Commonly known as Bumper Cars, the dodge’ems have been entertaining children and adults alike since the 1920’s and have only got better over the years. Enjoy the ride, the music and your friends while you dodge’em!

The Whip was a ride originally designed and built by W.F. Mangels Company of Coney Island, New York, USA. William F. Mangels patented the ride in 1914 and it soon became an extremely popular ride.

The Whip was a favorite with ride operators because as a ‘flat ride’ it was less expensive to acquire and was compact.

The ride consists of two circular wheel-like turn-table platforms on opposing sides of a rectangular base. Motors turn a cable that leads a number of 2/3 person seater cars that are attached, around a laminated wooden track. The ride follows the track while the cable turns. When the car reaches one of the turn-table platforms, the speed picks up forcing riders to one side as the car whips around the corner. Whips with 8, 10, or 12 cars were available.

Thank you Pbacot, if y'all have any ideas for some rides that you would like me to model let me know.

Yes! A small amusement park, but enough to keep me occupied for a bit.

The Great American Racing Derby Ride, the first ride as a part of an entire amusement park I am designing,is essentially a racing carousel, which Prior and Church debuted on the Ocean Park Pier in February 1917. These gave riders the opportunity to experience the rush of horse racing. Flying along at speeds twice as fast as the more sedate carousels, the hand-carved horses raced against each other to an imaginary finish line. So while the classic carousel is a must-do at any amusement park, if you want to experience the rush of one of yesteryear’s thrill rides, mount your steed and ride The Great American Racing Derby.
