Afterburner is a roller coaster at Fun Spot Amusement Park & Zoo in Angola, Indiana. It is the only operating roller coaster with an inversion in the state of Indiana. It is also notable for formerly using an elevator to transport passengers to the loading platform. Afterburner is the original prototype of Arrow's "Launched Loop" shuttle coaster.
From 1977 to 1990, it was known as "Zoomerang", first at Circus World, then at its short-lived replacement, Boardwalk and Baseball. Both parks were located in Haines City, Florida.
