The skyline at Universal Studios Hollywood has changed forever with the addition of Fast and the Furious: Hollywood Drift, opening at the southern California park sometime in the near future. You might even say that it's the newest addition to the Universal Roller Coaster family.
Andrew is joined this week, not only by California-resident Eric and Fast and the Furious super-fan Shane, but also Vice President of Universal Creative, Jon Corfino, where we learn about everything that went into the new coaster.
Whether it's the difficulty of building a roller coaster over an escalator and on the side of a hill, the Easter Eggs that are definitely there to be found on the ride, on-board audio, or the differences and similarities between Hollywood Drift's Orlando counterpart that's currently under construction, no stone is left unturned!
