• a controller for controlling the at least one adjusting unit,
• wherein the controller is in signal communication with a memory in which movements to be performed, positions to be assumed, and/or orientations to be assumed before a start of a ride or during the ride of the at least one passenger receptacle are stored directly or indirectly as memory content, the controller being configured to allow said positions, orientations, and/or movements to be assumed in sequence at a given point on the track before the start of the ride or during the ride, and
• wherein the amusement ride further comprises means for determining the memory content for the at least one passenger receptacle,
• wherein the controller is further configured to:
• receive input from a passenger, before the start of the ride, the input representing at least one selected movement, position and/or orientation of the at least one passenger receptacle relative to the at least one vehicle;
• store the at least one selected movement, position and/or orientation in the memory no later than at a start of a ride;
