Download The Italian Job Stunt Track Video (Kings Island)
New for 2005 at Paramount’s Kings Island was Italian Job Stunt Track - based on the movie “The Italian Job.” The idea is that you’re filming a scene based loosely on the events of the movie’s finale.
The ride begins with a lauch from 0-40 mph followed by a triple helix up a parking garage. From there you swerve your way through a roadblock, do a 180 on an overbanked turn, speed along the highway and make a quick left into the metrorail. Soon after you run into the dreaded black helicopter and as it shoots a couple gazillion rounds your way, things explode all around. Finally you make your escape through a long underground section and pop out right through an Italian Job sign and right under the feet of waiting riders before slowing to a stop as the director yells, “Cut!”
Italian Job is a really great little ride that makes up for thrills with more than enough fun. Definitely worth a ride.
Note - this ride currently goes by the name Backlot Stunt Coaster
