New thrills headed to Circuit of the Americas From the cover

The details

More than a track COTALAND is the latest addition to the Circuit of the Americas site.

The amusement park, dubbed COTALAND, will span approximately 30 acres with 33 attractions by opening day, including: • Two high-thrill roller coasters • Two family-friendly roller coasters • One roller coaster for children ages 3-6 “Most parks would spread this many rides out over a wider space, but what we’ve tried to do with this park is actually condense it a little bit so that we have more shade,” Epstein said. “I think when most of the other amusement parks were built in Texas, 30-50 years ago, shade wasn’t as big of a factor.” These attractions will be located between turns 19 and 20 of the COTA racetrack, where, for an additional cost, guests can take a "Hot Lap" around the track into the amusement park. “It should be the world’s greatest ride,” Epstein said.
