The Pepsi Max Alright (ish) One

So this is the Pepsi Max Big One. It looks huge and seems to fly around the track pretty fast. But actually it wasn't such a great thrill. We much preferred the Goliath at Six Flags NL. So thats an Arrow Dynamics against Intamin contest.
There seemed to be some confusion about the height of this ride - UltimateRollerCoaster.com says it is lower and slower than claimed by Blackpool Please Beach. So who knows. It doesn't take height, drop or angle to make a decent coaster, as any self respecting coaster rider knows, but its good to know...
