It's fun getting these high performance Mini Coopers up to speed. The Italian Job Stunt Track's launch takes you from zero to forty in just a few seconds.

The launch actually starts out a little slow and them bam it kicks in and you're gone.

After speeding down the launch track it's up into the parking garage helix. A few people reported blacking out in here but I didn't have any problems with that.

I don't have any photos of the middle of the Italian Job Stunt Track as it's not easily photographed from outside of the ride. You drop down from the helix and dodge a few police cars, go around a high turn, get some nice airtime while avoiding some highway signs and dive down into a subway station.

After the subway station you drive into an industrial section of a city where a helicopter starts shooting it's machine guns at you making pretty much everything around you explode before you escape by speeding down into the sewers.
