Incredible Hulk

Hulk does not use a conventional chain lift like most coasters.  Several hundred tires, each powered by an electric motor, grip the train by the brake skids to lift it up this hill.  Once the train is close to the top, the tires accelerate the train very quickly to launch it out of this tunnel.  There is about 1-G of acceleration during the launch.
