  1. Winch, not LSM

    RCDB says 44 mph, a height of 105 feet, and an electric winch launch. Wikipedia says 44 mph (71 km/h). The Paris building is the Discoveryland Space Mountain, currently themed as Star Wars Hyperspace Mountain: Rebel Mission.

  2. The 1.8 seconds stay off

    Wikipedia says 0 to 44 mph in 1.8 seconds. RCDB does not say that clock, so the launch list does not rank it. Track length also disagrees between the two pages, and it is not a separate figure. A Jules Verne retheme planned for the end of 2027 is not a closure.

The faster Paris coaster is Flight Force.
