  1. Guessing that's the thing the park uses to take train cars on and off the transfer track for maintenance.
  2. Tony posted a couple of pics on his Twitter 3 days ago of the last stretch of bunny hills very close to being finished.
  3. The more I watch the POV of Twisted Cyclone, the more I dig it. It looks like quite a fun collection of elements packed into that tiny footprint, and flying into the brakes with a ton of speed will make me want to get back in line to ride it again. I also think the ride will look bigger than the rendering makes it seem. It's easy to dismiss 100 feet as being "short", but the tightness of that area forces you to stand right in the ride's shadow making it look bigger than it actually is. It'll be a good looking coaster.
  4. Couple of observations from the renderings. I love the blue track. Great color choice considering the original also had blue track. The trains look sick as well, although why they are themed to cars I have no idea LOL. Seems kinda random. The unpainted wood makes me think that a LOT of the original structure might have to come down and be rebuilt, which makes sense because a lot of the wood did look pretty bad. Perhaps the park just doesn't want to paint the new lumber and just pressure wash all the paint off the old structure. I don't know, but whatever. I'm a details guy I can't help myself. While I'll miss the length of the original ride, I think Twisted Cyclone's layout will grow on me. Shorter coasters like this lend themselves to a lot of re-riding, which is never a bad thing. This looks like it would be a fun ride to marathon on a light day. It's sad to me that Six Flags never bothered to keep Georgia Cyclone in really good condition, BUT it's good to see the park finally do something with it. I mean you really can't go wrong with RMC.
  5. Pretty sure all the announcements will happen at the break of dawn. Around 5 am Eastern I think.
  6. I have video footage from April last year of a wide open River Battle with NO ONE on it, while Daredevil Falls and River Rampage were charging on with plenty of riders. It was a little cooler that day (low 60s I think) so that was probably the reason, but still, it's never felt super successful in terms of crowd draw except with kids.
  7. If the scenery around the ride will look anything like the rendering, it's gonna look great! Lol I love how low-key this announcement was compared to CP's and KD's. The reaction of the crowd to the rendering was just "whoa..." instead of "YEEAH WOOOO!!!"
  8. I love how RMC managed to throw in a quick wave turn in the middle of a 90 degree bank. This thing looks so amazing!!!!
  9. Very solid RMC. I love the 3 straight airtime hills toward the beginning.
  10. I'm wondering this as well. No one seems to mention them, and it almost seems like they would be a good compromise between the PTC experience and the good tracking of Millennium Flyers. Plus I think they look cool.
