History
The attraction was announced in November 2000.[1] It opened on April 27, 2001.[2]
The ride was repainted in 2025.[3]

Titan is 245 feet tall with a 255 foot drop at an angle of 65 degrees into a 120 foot long tunnel.[1] A large turnaround follows, and then an airtime hill. Riders ascend the 540-degree upward helix before hitting the mid-course brake run. After a small drop and overbanked turn, riders are thrown into the ride's 570-degree downward helix finale, which pulls 4.5 G's for nearly six seconds. A banked left turn follows, and then riders glide into the final brake run.
Color scheme
Orange track and blue supports.
Trains
3 trains with 5 cars per train. In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 3 rows, for a total of 30 riders per train.
