Rookie Racer is all about taking riders on a twisty but quick run around the track. 



The racing theme for the coaster is "plussed" by the addition of a audio track in the queue that interviews several racers about racing.  What's fun with these interviews is that there are several Easter eggs that pay homage to previous park presidents by naming the racers after them.



Then there is a not quite onboard audio track of speakers that are placed around the coaster that are timed from when the train is dispatched through the two laps it takes with race commentary and crowd roar that makes this already fun coaster even more fun.



Rookie Racer's soundtrack is a little bit cheesy to an adult but we are not who this ride is targeted for.  This experience is geared for little kids and all of the sound effects, race commentary, and crowd roars makes the ride that much more memorable for those taking a try on their first coaster.



With a top speed of twenty-seven miles an hour and no hills Rookie Racer's trains keep their speed through the rides twists and helices.
