Quimera @ La Feria Chapultepec Magico (Mexico City, Mexico)
Full offride video taken from across the street in 2016.

This Schwarzkopf triple looper is very intense, pulling a massive 4.7 gs through the loops. Located at a charmingly dilapidated amusement park in Mexico City, this is a must ride for any coaster nerds who find themselves south of the border.

I'd also recommend checking out the massive park across the street. And bring pesos if you're driving. We got stuck in the parking lot because it would only accept cash but the ATM at La Feria was out of order (legit armed guards standing by but unable to point me to a working one). Thankfully a nice local father out with his kids recognized our distress and paid our way out of the parking lot jail.

2019 Edit: I just learned that due to suspected problems with the wheel bogeys on the last car
of train, that car ended up derailing and killing at least two passengers as a result. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family's and loved ones of those impacted. I have never been treated more kindly by locals than I was in Mexico City, specifically during the few hours we spent at this amuesment park and the public park across the street. I hope that other parks will learn from this and start increasing their maintenance procedures as a result. Coaster are supposed to be a fun and safe way to get scared. They should Not actually put us in danger. RIP to those lost
