Knott's Berry Farm's seventh roller coaster Silver Bullet is a high-flying $16 million roller coaster that shoots onto the Ghost Town scene, soaring into Fiesta Village and back over Indian Trails. Suspended below the track, Silver Bullet sends riders climbing to a height of 146 feet and soaring back down an initial drop of 109 feet. On board riders will spiral, corkscrew, fly into and out of a cobra roll, and experience overbanked curves on Silver Bullet. Overall, riders will find themselves upside down six times, including one vertical loop that stands 105 feet tall. With two trains and a capacity of 32 people per train, Silver Bullet sends 1,300 guests per hour head over heels on a two and half minute, high-speed tour. The trains, each with eight cars seating four abreast, move riders along 3,125 feet of track while reaching a top speed of 55 mph.
