In just three seconds this roller coaster will launch you out of the station to 60 miles-per-hour. The Joker's Jinx then climbs up 79-feet to enter a twisted maze of steel track known as the "spaghetti bowl". Inside the bowl riders will ascend into and out of a direction reversing cobra roll inversion, a sidewinder twist, multiple reversals and corkscrew finale. The Joker's Jinx is the fastest and only launch coaster at Six Flags America.
