Stampida is a racing, wooden roller coaster built by Custom Coasters International at PortAventura Park in the resort PortAventura World, Salou, Catalonia, Spain. It is a very rickety roller coaster with many drops and 2 tunnels. It features two parallel tracks with blue and red cars each one, but then they run separately for a while. Finally, they come parallel again to the end of the ride. It shares a part of its route with a kiddie wooden roller coaster named Tomahawk.[citation needed]

Notes

[edit]

Stampida is one of only two dual-tracked roller coasters CCI ever built. The other is the now-defunct Twisted Twins at Kentucky Kingdom.
