Is no-one listening to me the 212 feet is not true, 212 is the max is the boiling point of water in Fahrenheit It is too much of a coincidence to be true... Also when I say 4D, I mean like X2 not Kirnu... I just had a thought, all the defying gravity and space could be referring to airtime and zero g... -

I was trying to figure that out too... It looks like a height indicator, I think it refers to Comet as Great Wooden Twister maybe... -
Hersheypark (HP) Discussion Thread

I have gone through the whole site, and I think it is a Launched 4D Coaster made by Intamin and not a mega coaster! And yes I do know some of these things have been said before, but some of them are new... Intamin: Home: RIT: Intamin’s full name: Intamin Amusement Rides Int. Corp. Est. 1911: Intamin’s phone number: +41 1 786 91 11 Remapped boundaries of engineering (Think of all of world firsts Intamin made) About RIT: Compare it to Intamin’s about us… extremely similar Fabricated: Intamin Woodies Third person comes from Switzerland, home of Intamin Research: Patented stress-strain curve equations: Revolution @ SFMM (the world’s first safe looping coaster) was made by Schwarzkopf and Intamin Studies: 2004: Storm Runner was built by Intamin Launch: About RIT: 1997: Tower Of Terror and Superman, launched coasters 2007: Maverick, Furious Bacco and Mick Doohan, launched coasters Third person comes from Geneva, home of CERN, a particle accelerator Fourth person believes in acceleration Research: Propulsion: Launch is a form of propulsion Gravity Manipulation: Have speed without height with launch Irregularities in The Relationship between Weight and Mass: Change in weight without change in mass is acceleration…GO NERDS! Human Excitement: Launches are fun Studies: 2004: Storm Runner Newtonian: All to do with changes in force, which means acceleration. Not Bound By Traditional Equations: Acceleration not due to gravity, which means launch. High Speed Propulsion: Obviously Launch LSM/LIM: About RIT: 13 Years Old: Volcano, (opened 13 years ago 1998) an LIM launched coaster 15 Years Old: Superman/Tower Of Terror (1997 opened 15 years ago) LIM launched coasters 2007: Maverick, an LIM coaster Studies: Propulsive Forces When Magnetically Charged: LIM launch Mag Lev: Magnets: System Of Magnetic Transportation New Type (Vertical Launch/ 4D Launch): Home: Remapped Boundaries Of Engineering: this hints at something new. Research: Four Dimensional Analysis: 4D coaster hinted at. Throughout there are references to space, space is up, a vertical launch is possible, constellations, Russia etc. Also the things about defying gravity may suggest vertical launch. Not Mega Coaster: Everything about launches, and the hints at maybe 4D or vertical launch, probably disproves the mega coaster. About RIT: Fourth person believes in airtime, acceleration and barrel rolls. You can’t have launches or inversions on mega coasters by definition. Other Things: 212 feet max height: 212 = boiling point of water in Fahrenheit, so probably not actual height. About RIT: American Cinema Editors: ACE Studies: In RIT logo there are 11 white stars and one big yellow star, Hershey currently has 11 coasters and is getting a nice big new shiny one. The Constellation Is Of Great Bear 800 Skydives: Hersheypark’s telephone is: 800-HERSHEY 12 Flawless Night Jumps: Hershey will have 12 coasters. -

Fuji-Q Highlands Discussion Thread
RollerCoasterSmi replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
F*** YOU EL LOCOS... Gerstlauer are reclaiming the steepness title by a whole 8 degrees... 121 degrees, that is insanity (RCDB)... Such a shame it has to be at Fuji-Q! This should be so much better than Speed: No Limits, even though that is an amazing coaster... -

Also anyone else, what is your coaster count???

Hey Robb, May I start off by saying, how great the site is, it has provided hours upon hours of entertainment. I'm just curious what your coaster count is, I presume you do one as I have seen pictures of you whoring. Cheers, RollerCoasterSmi
