Fans of exotic cars and roller coasters could soon have a new favorite park in Orlando. The luxury automaker Ferrari licensed its name to its first park, Ferarri World, in Abu Dhabi in 2010. It contains the world's fastest roller coaster, the Formula Rossa. Ferarri has plans for additional parks in Spain (almost completed), China, and now North America, as well.
Ferarri has not yet revealed where in North America its latest park would be constructed, but many people are speculating that Orlando is a frontrunner. If Orlando (or possibly another Florida city) was chosen, you can bet that this new attraction would come with some incredible auto-themed rides and entertainment. For now, we can only wait and see.
Oh, and did we mention that Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi is entirely indoors? Now that sounds perfect for Florida. Take a look at some of the images inside the amusement park in Abu Dhabi:
It's never too late in Florida to enjoy some waterpark fun, am I right? But if you really want to try something unique, I recommend heading to Rapids Water Park in Riviera Beach for Florida's first and only dueling water coaster. Dubbed Mega Mayhem, this water coaster has been declared the longest dueling coaster of its kind, and you can battle your friends to see who shoots to the bottom the fastest.

Rapids Waterpark in Riviera Beach is South Florida's largest water park and the perfect place to spend a warm afternoon with family or friends.
This thrilling ride stands nearly 54 feet tall and features two flumes over 1,600 feet long. Riders race side-by-side through twists, high-banked turns, and uphill sections, propelled by powerful blasts of water.
If you want to check your position in the race, you'll catch glimpses of your friends and family riding alongside you throughout the coaster. Riders must be at least 42 inches tall to ride with an adult and 48 inches tall to ride alone.
The park is open daily through September 2nd and on weekends from September 7th to December 1st. So you have plenty of time to catch this dueling water coaster before the season ends.
Thanks to the Rapids Water Park YouTube page, you can get a glimpse of Mega Mayhem in action:
