Speed was the name of this ride. There wasn't much breathing room to take photos of the colorful rides at night at the Pima County Fair. Hence why some of this shot is cut off. I tried various angles and distances and this shot is by far the best, as it leaves a lot of the people and booths out of the shot. This ride is something I don't think I could see myself riding. There are two carriages that people get in and take a seat on. Think of a pendulum and one carriage is on each side of the pendulum. Now swing the pendulum around 360 degrees. That folks, is what this ride is all about. Being flung way up in the air and around and around she goes. Kind of like a Ferris wheel with less of a rotation and a much greater speed.
