  1. OMG!!! WAY TO GO RMC!!!!! The off ride pov and the speed of the train over that small hop before the 720!!!! The pov brough to light a very cool head chopper where the track/train go through the lift hill. I'm just in awe!
  2. Another piece has gone up in the snow. These guys are determined! 2/8/13 9:48AM And now the zero G is finished! 2/8/13 11:10AM
  3. THAT IS THE CREEPIEST TEASER EVER!!!! LOVE IT!... COMPLETELY MADE ME JUMP.
  4. ^Old train from what was posted several pages back. No official confirmation. It'll be better than Ninja (though that is not saying alot).
  5. The next piece is already going up. 2/7/13 9:50AM AND the next piece is up. 2/7/13 10:00AM NOW Through BOTH Keyholes! 2/7/13 11:33AM
  6. Local planning board websites, check agendas and permit applications and such. Some places you have to actually go to the office as they don't post things online (like the town of Agawam for SFNE).
  7. Looks like a skate board coaster... where you get to stand and bend your legs as if on an actual skateboard.
  8. It's interesting when you read the proposal as they mention KD and Hershey in their comparisons.
  9. Given that video... I think it's clear which one is going to open first.
  10. An inverted Wing coaster is kind of redundant being that it changes nothing about ride experience since you ride on the outside of the track. Also wing coasters have riders level with the track so I mean...... I guess my question is WHY? What's the need?
  11. Oh It's true that they are seeking! www.cityofbowie.org/Files/AgendaCenter/Items/147/SE%202635%203400_201301031501418304.pdf
  12. You guys are thinking in the mid set of coaster enthusiast. Granted, I too would love Boss just to be touched up and given the TLC it needs to be as great as it was in its first season... however, marketing wise, they won't draw in the crowds. We gotta think in terms of Money (Investment) and ROI! Which is why Iron Horse works so well.
  13. Speaking of new Vortex trains, what if they replaced the OTSRs with a vest restraint like the ones on B&M wing coasters? I have thought the same thing... I think that would make stand ups much more enjoyable. The style works well on the flyers and on wing coasters. If they apply it to stand ups no more
  14. Awesomeness. The name Eclipse > Texas Starflyer
  15. I just hope this rides smooth with lap bar only restrains and no sudden shifting as the cars navigate the various elements.
  16. I would be in AWE. I have said I want to see the day when we get inverted coaster to take that record from Alpengeist and go over 200ft. It would be a hyper (albeit inverted) with inversions. I also would love to see a Intamin Pre Fab. However, I think a B&M dive coaster would be the absolute best fit. That space just screams Dive Coaster to me... I already have the layout in my head. 2014 will make 9 years since Sheikra, I would thank that any such (rumored) exclusivity deal with B&M over Dive Coasters should be null and void by now. How about a mixture of the two... an inverted Dive Coaster... Where the cliff hanger drop is a take from the wing-over drop on wing coasters. After cresting the top of the lift the track rolls over into a dive but there's there cliff hanger mechanism to hold the car at the edge of the drop. Therefore riders aboard the inverted coaster train are hanging upside while looking near 90 degrees straight down for the few seconds before the mechanism releases.
  17. Even more of a reason to join the TPR tour or visit this season because it is best to ride this thing in it's first year. Lord knows how it might ride after its first season.
  18. I'm looking forward to The Smiler and Project Helix as well.
  19. Thank's I've never been been to CGA... I assumed they were using it like SFGAm uses as a movie theater with movies about park history. Thanks for that info.
  20. Where is the entrance to the tower going to be? Looking closely there seems to be two cutouts to allow a pass-through but I'm not sure if this could be the passageway. Also wondering how are guest going to get to the theater.
  21. Looks like the drop off the cliff is going to be steep as well.
