Wonders of Life Coaster

I know, just after I got through saying Epcot needs more dark rides - I did get an idea for a coaster for Wonders of Life.

Know those heartline coasters - the ones where the vehicle is kind of suspended between two rails at about chest level? I noticed that the track has an uncanny resembelence to the DNA strand outside the Wonders of Life pavilion.

How about one of those vertical coasters where the vehicle is propelled bys LSM motors straight up? The cars will be those heartline type, and the cars will be gimbaled in pitch - another words they can tilt forward and back. The car is shot forward, and as it starts going vertical, the car starts twisting around in the helix of the DNA strand. The car itself will remain horizontal, however, so the ride is like a twisting rise and drop - you aren't lying on your back for most of the ride.

So like a mix between an Intamin Inpulse coaster track and a Launch tower style seating position.

Sounds interesting, although the strains put on the body like that may be too intense?

Kind of, yeah.

It could be to intense. How about just having it launch straight up, but simply do the DNA twist as it goes up?
