Six Flags Magic Mountain is soon to become the only theme park in the world with 20 roller coasters, after announcing plans for their newest ride “West Coast Racers.”

On Wednesday, Magic Mountain unveiled plans for its first new roller coaster since Twisted Colossus in 2015. The new ride will put the amusement park’s coaster count at 20 — the most in the world.

“This is huge news,” Neal Thurman, Six Flags Magic Mountain president, said. “No one else is doing anything like this.”

West Coast Customs, who rose to fame with the MTV television show “Pimp My Ride,” partnered with Six Flags to make the world’s first racing launch coaster that is slated to open in 2019.

The coaster cars were modeled after “The Rocket,” a one-of-a-kind car that Ryan Friedlinghaus, founder and CEO of West Coast Customs, built for the artist Will.I.Am.

The ride consists of a three-minute journey on a terrain-hugging track for head-to-head racing at speeds of up to 55 miles per hour.

In all, the race covers two complete laps and features four total inversions (including three zero-gravity rolls and one stall), 14 track crossovers and a “high-five” in which riders come so close they almost high-five the opposing car, according to officials.

“When it comes to a roller coaster, have we ever done it? No,” Friedlinghaus said. “Can we? Of course.”

West Coast Racers is slated to open in summer 2019 in a new urban-themed area near the wooden coaster Apocalypse and the Cyclone 500 Go Karts, which are set to undergo a re-theming.
