Fast & Furious Ride Opening Date Finally Set At Universal Studios Hollywood

Universal Studios Hollywood has set an opening date for its new rollercoaster, Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift. The ride will open on September 16. According to Deadline, the coaster will allow fans to reach speeds of 72 mph.
