I went into Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift thinking there was NO WAY this coaster could possibly live up to the hype… and I was very, very wrong. 😂 I literally got off a cruise ship, headed straight to Universal Studios Hollywood for rope drop, and somehow managed to ride Hollywood Drift FOUR TIMES during technical rehearsals before turning around and catching a red-eye flight that night. In this video, I’m taking you through the entire day—from trying to make rope drop, to experiencing the coaster in different cars and rows, plenty of on-ride footage, and everything I learned about what you can expect while Hollywood Drift is still in technical rehearsals. And after four rides? This thing is pretty fricken incredible. I’m talking about the speed, spinning, intensity, best seats, how smooth it is, the ride vehicles, what surprised me the most, and whether I think it actually deserves all the hype it’s been getting. 🎢 Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift 📍 Universal Studios Hollywood 🚗 4 rides in different cars & rows Would YOU rope drop this coaster?! #FastAndFurious #HollywoodDrift #UniversalStudiosHollywood #RollerCoaster #universalstudios
