^ I know, that's what I said above...
-
Maintenance Orb car.
EDIT: Agh ^ beat me too it.
-
Wishful thinking here but I'd rather see a giga-coaster themed to Toruk (the great leonopteryx in the movie) than a B&M wingrider!
I was thinking that too, maybe an Intamin mega, weaving in and out of trees? Ehhh? Ehh?
-
Maverick, line was soo long. I regret everything.
-
If they get it up and running by 2014, investment well done. (Avatar 2)

@ Trevs, Yeah what I meant to say was fit under the bridge top, but I just woke up and wasn't thinking right.
Maybe, but that would ruin the bridge, because either it would have to be a very wide bridge (Rider Envelope), or a bridge formed to what the track does (Which would look ugly.) I think it would've been cool to do like a heart line roll through the bridge but yeah, like that's going to happen.
-
It'll have to fit under the bridge though.

I am! I am going to BGW for the first time in 5 years in the Summer 2012 season! Oh, and yes I agree. Nessie isn't going anywhere. For as smooth I remembered it to be it's gonna be staying for a while!
LNM? Smooth?
-
Not saying it'll leave anytime soon (Pretty sure it just got a new paint job this year), but I fear it'll be the last paint job it ever gets. I agree it is very iconic, but have you ever noticed how all throughout the day it's pretty much walk-on?
-
Yes and no.
-
Maybe this is just a ploy to give the kids something to do and while they're busy with that stuff, take down LNM and put in something new? That would be evilllll...
I agree though, a flyer or a Wingrider would be magical across the Rhine. But it's not really something BGW needs. What they really need now is an S&S Screamin' Swing.
And ^ it was in the form of a question. And there were no explanation points in the post whatsoever. And why would I be complaining if it doesn't effect me? Teehee
-
This is so rigged...it's sad. Bizarro and MF are literally in my "Top 5 coaster that could burn with SOB". They're both really boring and not forceful. And TTD? Top 10? That's messed up to say the least.
-
CGA is being sold to buy itself a Giga and a new Windseeke- Oh....
-
@ Larrygator No that specific post was not a complaint, it was a question. I looked at the plans again and realized it's brilliant ride once I put two and two together, which was why I said I liked it more than I did before.
But the 48" requirement baffles me. When I was young(er), my parents always complained about me wanting to ride BBW because it was so jerky. But maybe Zierer's making new trains just for Verbolten? There are a lot of variables, and it really comes down to what the company and the park can agree on. I would say that Cheetah Hunt has a 48" requirement, but they have 42" req for Scorpion. I hate to say it, but maybe Loch Ness Monster's just a ticking time bomb? I don't know, just a guess.

^^ CP fanboys....

School.
What's worse than politics?

EDIT: Proof that it's gravity powered until the straightaway to the event building; If you watch the announcement, the guy (dunno who he is) when announcing Verbolten says "You're going to take a right turn, and all of a sudden the gas pedals gonna hit."
You leave the station, turn left go straight a bit, and then turn right, and ahead of you is the event building.
-
No I'm not complaining again. I've gotten to like Verbolten much more than I did 24 hours ago . But I dunno, I'm just asking. After all it is the "Black Forest" and it is "Forbidden". And the leaked event building plan has a lot of stuff that could (possibly) frighten a young kid. But then again the plans are leaked (could be fake), and if they were real BGW could always change the plans.
-
Is it just me, or does the storyline seem a bit dark for a family ride?
-
I take it back. After I analyzed everything we have, it looks really cool. I'm excited.
-
No no, give me a month, something huge is missing. Everything's so vague that I'm just waiting for all the details before I start getting excited about it.
-
I'm actually kind of awe struck! There are rides that are one mile long that only last about two minutes, lift hill included. And yet this ride has a 3 min 25 second ride time at just 2,835 feet? That sounds pretty sweet. Somehow, I feel that the ride time isn't 100% accurate, they could include variables that I don't count, but it still sounds like a darn good replacement for BBW. Speaking of, I wonder if there will be any respectful references to BBW along the ride.
The drop track will take a good chunk of time. Maybe it'll surpass Leviathan and attain the record for "World's longest brake run".
-
It just seems odd...that's all. I also think Busch is relying too much on the event building.
-
Similar coasters at BGT and BGW usually come within 1000 feet of each other's length.
What do they do to reduce hunting on wooden roller coasters?
in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!

By taking away our right to bear arms, or by reducing the animal population throughout the coaster layout.
