Welcome back to the park for more BrainRush. More big money, more big rides, and more big players hoping to face off with both.

LEVEL 1: BOOMERANG (Height: 11 stories; Top forward speed: 48 MPH; Length: 875 ft; Loops: 6; max G's: 5)

So much for the writer, but he does get $50 for his time.

LEVEL 2: SILVER BULLET (3125 ft of suspended metal; top speed: 55 mph; cobra rolls; zero G rolls; two corkscrews)

First up is Katilin, and her game is "Represent". She will be told three words. She has to locate three pictures representing those three words. Every picture or word is worth $50.

WORDS: Mohawk... Headphones... Chainsaw.

PICTURES: Key... Peace Sign... Banana.

She gets all of the words and two pictures for $250 more, $350 total.

Trevor is playing the Regurgitator, Hit Man on a roller coaster. Today, he'll try to be an instant expert on the San Francisco Giants at LA Dodgers' home opener (from ESPN.com).

1) How many runs did the Dodgers score in the game?
- 19. (CORRECT: 11)

2. What team did the Los Angeles Dodgers play?
- San Francisco Giants... eventually ($50)

3. What is hitting a home run, a triple, a double and a single, all in one game?
- "An overall ... something!" (CORRECT: Hitting for the cycle)

Did we mention that Trevor doesn't like rollercoasters. He has another reason to hate them, as he leaves the game with $225.

LEVEL 3: XCELERATOR (blast coaster; top forward speed: 82 MPH; 225 ft vertical arch; max G's: 4)

This is a categories round called "Motor Mouth" with these categories in play...

- ZAP-POW (Superheroes & comic books)
- PENALTY BOX (Sports)
- WATCH OUT! (TV/movies)
- KNOW IT ALL (general knowledge)

Kaitlin goes with "Watch Out!" But before she goes on the Xcelerator, here is a funnel cake. Eat it in 30 seconds, and you get $100 no matter what. She... doesn't. Folks... You eat a funnel cake like you mean it. 

And now.. the question. Remember, the more Kaitlin names, the more she earns.

The question: Name as many "American Idol" top 10 finalists from any season as possible.

- Kelly Clarkson - $50
- Ruben Studdard - $100
- Clay Aiken - $150
- Diana DeGarmo - $200
- Kellie Pickler - $250

That's five for $750, giving her a total of $1100! But now comes the hard park. Will she go for double or half on the Bonus? She's going for it!

For $2200 for $550...

WHAT IS THE TITLE OF THE SEQUEL TO THE MOVIE "BRUCE ALMIGHTY"?

She... doesn't know. It was "Evan Almighty." No victory ride and no doubler, meaning that Kaitlin leaves with $550. But still... we launch the ride anyway, because we're nice like that.

Back next with with more sick rides, more boggling questions, and more cash money. Until then... Thank you for riding the Brainrush, and enjoy the rest of your day.
