The Time Warp Roller Coaster at Canada's Wonderland, Vaughn, Ontario, Canada

Does this look comfortable?  No it's not.  Right next to the painful Flight Deck is the Time Warp which is so bad it makes our previous ride seem smooth and pain free.

Time Warp is a Zamperla designed flying coaster and to get into the car you climb up the ladder as the car slowly moves through the station.  Loading was kind of cool and that's one of two good things I can say about this coaster.

The other good thing I can say about it is it's neat lift.  There is a spiral section of track with a pole in the center that spins and it has bars attached to it that pushes the cars around and up.  If you ever had a Spacewarp marble rollercoaster growing up in the 1980's this is the closest to riding one of those lifts you'll ever get to ride.

There are several things that make this a really bad ride first off you're just laying there in the car with a cage locked around you so you're not solidly locked in.  There is a lot of "wiggle room" so when this ride rolls and turns you roll and slam around inside the cage.

The next thing that makes this ride one of the worst coasters I have ever been on is just look at the rough transitions in the track.  Mix in you bouncing around in a cage while the car speeds through rough transitions and you've got a modern equivalent of a Chance Toboggan coaster.
