I'm going to be honest, this feels like they just searched up "scary roller coasters" on Google, and lazily smooshed together everything they found. I wasn't expecting much, but holy crap.

This may not be the biggest roller coaster in Vegas, but it is the best roller coaster in Vegas! Really cool sound system for every rider with 3 Unique soundtracks! Also, the best and most comfortable ergonomics of any roller coaster in Vegas. Really awesome high tech design for the vehicles only adds to the overall excellent experience. High speed lift hill certainly isn't hurting things either! Lots of great off-ride photo ops abound!

I got the all day wristband pass ($29.99) which is a good deal because riding this coaster once is already 10 bucks. I rode this at least 5 times.It's about time they got rid of that lame boat ride and putting this in. Memo to the Circus Circus CEO (Clown Executive Officer), that the Canyon Blaster Coaster is starting to look and sound pretty lame so I think its about time for that to be replaced as well.My first initial read I thought El Pollo Loco busted out with a roller Coaster. This ride has the same colors and everything. A crazy chicken riding a crazy coaster? Next coaster should be a KFC product (Kentucky Fried Coaster) Lol.This ride is about a minute long overall from take off. You get an overall balance of speed, inversions, twists, and turns. The first drop you pretty much go straight down and later on it leads into an inverted half loop. Lastly, you run into another inverted loop just right before you get back to the station.Each car can hold up to 4 people. Your are restrained by a lap belt and padded lap bar. I like this because unlike the Canyon Blaster, your shoulders and line of sight are not restricted.Some random info. Dont go on this ride especially after having a big meal. Not because it might come back out, but because the lap bar that comes down rests pretty much on your stomach. So if you have a big belly like me, I kind of had a hard time breathing since the pressure on the lap bar gets even tighter when you go down that first drop. Also, the camera that takes your picture is situated just right after you hit the first drop so prepare accordingly.Overall, this coaster is definitely the best ride in the Adventuredome. Maybe in Vegas and the surrounding areas. Originally, I was gonna give it 5 stars but after a couple of hours hanging out in the park, it broke down several times. Dont worry, it got stuck on the parts where there were stairs accessible for people to come down, which was what actually happened those times. It sucks for those people having to come down some stairs. Also, I captured some video on my phone and tried to upload it on the business listing but it looks like it didnt go through.

This is a really fun roller coaster at the Adventuredome at Circus Circus. It cost me $10 for a single ride. I got in a four seat roller coaster. The ride lasted just over a minute, but it was hella fun nonetheless. In fact, I appreciated the short ride as I did not get sick as I have done on other, longer roller coaster rides.

I give it 2 Stars, but my husband liked it more than I did...so I round it to 3 Stars.Did not feel safe to me. I'm sure this ride passes all safety inspections to operate, but personally, I think if a ride fully inverts a rider, then there should be shoulder restraints. This ride has a lap belt and a padded waist restraint that sits on your legs, nothing over your shoulders. We went completely upside down at least twice. I was beside my skinny child, who was just barely tall enough to ride, with a death grip on his little hand as we went upside down. I thought "if those lap restraints fail, there's nothing to stop my child from plunging to the ground". Supposedly, this lack of shoulder restraints is part of their "innovative, open design...giving the feeling of flying". No thanks.

Some thrilling roller coasters drop straight down at a 90 degree angle. El Loco goes a step further with a drop less than 90 degrees. It makes you feel like your stomach was left behind at the top of the drop. It's a fun ride, but only lasts 72 seconds.

Went to circus circus to ride the new roller-coaster el loco I was really impressed of how smooth of ride this coaster is, even though it was short the time on it was well worth it and very fun wished I hadn't been so reluctant to ride it at first but after not riding any type of roller-coaster for a lot of years it was a good way to start again.

I'm sorry to say that anyone who wants to enjoy their meal should stay away from El Loco. The noise on Madison Ave. is HORRIBLE. Other neighborhoods don't allow the loud motorcycles, souped up car engines and stereos booming. We used to enjoy El Loco, but the ear splitting noise isn't worth it. I don't know how people stand to live there, but by recommendation is go somewhere that doesn't allow this behavior so you can enjoy your meal and the conversation of your dining guests.
