New Mexico Rattler
New Mexico Rattler is a wooden roller coaster located at Cliff's Amusement Park in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The roller coaster was designed and manufactured by Custom Coasters International (CCI); the park completed the attraction after CCI went bankrupt in July 2002. The New Mexico Rattler opened on September 28, 2002, having cost $2 million. The roller coaster reaches a maximum height of 80 feet (24 m), with a maximum speed of 47 mph (76 km/h), and a total track length of 2,750 feet (840 m). The New Mexico Rattler spans the entire length of the park but only occupies one acre (0.40 ha) of land. Located in the southwest section, the roller coaster navigates over different attractions throughout the park. The New Mexico Rattler utilizes a steel support structure with a wooden track. The layout incorporates elements of an out and back and twister roller coaster. Upon opening, the roller coaster generally received positive reviews from guests and critics, and it received several awards.
