The verdict
Fury 325 takes it 4–2, and the 2 SheiKra does win are the whole of its case.
Fury 325 is a steel Giga Coaster coaster at Carowinds, US, built by Bolliger & Mabillard. SheiKra is a steel Dive Coaster coaster at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, US, built by Bolliger & Mabillard.
Both are in US, which puts them in the same conversation for anyone planning a trip there.
They come from the same drawing office: Bolliger & Mabillard. That makes the gaps below a question of brief and budget rather than engineering house style.
Both are steel-track, so nothing here is the usual steel-versus-wood argument in disguise.
Stat by stat
- Height goes to Fury 325 at 325 ft against 200 ft — nearly double.
- Speed goes to Fury 325 at 95 mph against 70 mph — a long way clear.
- SheiKra turns upside down once; Fury 325 never does, so Inversions is a shut-out.
- Throughput goes to Fury 325 at 1,470 rph against 1,200 rph — well clear.
- Build Cost goes to Fury 325 at 30 $m against 13.5 $m — more than double.
- 10 years separate them, and because Vintage rewards age it is SheiKra (2005) that banks the point, not Fury 325 (2015).
