  1. ^ I actually think the most possible place where Knightmare might be going is Knoebels.
  2. I guess they mean Inverted coaster/ suspending coaster. Chinese knock-off coaster companies are just genius!
  3. ^ then SFMM would not be the roller coaster capital in the world
  4. Gerstlauer made a Euro Fighter like this with some OMFG airtime.
  5. Forgot to say, if Mini Mine Train counts as a mine train, it is definitely the worst.
  6. I'm pretty sure the other trains had and still do have polymer wheels. I may be wrong though. So I think its safe to say that these new trains will also have polymer wheels because they had no relation with the accident. Also, the trains involved in the NTAG accident weren't made RCM but by Gerstlauer. If RMC doesn't make the new trains and Gerstlauer does, I can see slightly different trains then those on NTAG and IRat. It is using RMC trains.
  7. This is EXACTLY my list. But I would like to add River King Mine Train with Big Bad John for the layout. If despite for the historical value and the theming, Runaway Mine Train could be the worst.
  8. ^^Despite for the historical value of Runaway Mine Train, I think Runaway Mine Train is the most boring one.
  9. I think that if B&M start to make floorless trains with the height of the seats matching the heartline/headline. Putting standard floorless trains might be worse as the heartline/headline of those stand up casters might be slightly higher than those floorless coasters. Anoter crazy thought, what if B&M start to put flying trains to the stand up coasters? Lift hill might have the same issues with Flyng Dutchmans though...
  10. What else is sexier than an RMC coaster?
  11. You really think that Maverick's are bad? I can't wait to see your reaction upon riding Goudurix for the first time. I can see the difference. Maverick would be perfect with a development on the restraints but Goudurix would not beat Maverick unless RMC start to do make-over on steel coasters.
  12. My first standup was Riddler's Revenge and I kind of liked it. But Mantis is just horrible with unpleasant force and most importantly, THAT STUPID TRIM ON THE FIRST DROP!
  13. I think Apocalypse gave me a bad impression of GCII due to the roughness, which was even worse than Colossus. But luckily, American Thunder made me like GCII again.
  14. Furius Baco? No tight turns, tight inversions etc but really intense. But I thought that the intensity (plus the fact that the "wings" look like basically seats riding on top of tree branches) was the whole reason why Furius Baco was so rough. I still think that at least it has intensity, not like some coasters out there that only have roughness. But I totally agree that Intamin seems like extended the seats outside instead of being more "wing" like B&M's.
  15. ^ I believe it would be even more painful as your lap and the lap bar would have a gap in between, during the crazy ejector air, it will make you extremely painful. Hydraulic lap bar is a better choice for rides like SkyRush and El Toro. Modifying the shape can improve the ride but changing them could make it worse.
  16. Get something straight here - no one copied anyone. The track is designed for the ride, regardless of what manufacturer makes it. There aren't any "honor codes" that I know of, unless there's a patent involved. But, if you REALLY want to get technical - Premier's track uses a square cross-sectioned tie in the shape of a hollowed-out triangle. Intamin's track uses tubes that start wide and get narrow as they approach the running rail, and the rails are connected by tubes, creating the tie. Maurer's track in that application is two-rail for the most of the layout, and the only reason why it looks like Premier's track is because they used a spine for the top hat, loop and corkscrew - probably so they didn't have to support it as much - and needed some way to connect the rails to the spine. Again, I'm filing this one under things that really "don't matter", especially considering that Intamin still uses the box/triangle track that they've always used (EDIT: Did you even see the other coaster in this park?!?) I didn't know what was the correct word to type so I just said copying. And, yes I did check out the other coaster, and I know they still use the skeleton track. I'm just talking about the new track and why so many manufacturers are using the design. But at least B&M are keeping their box-track! Can I say B&M copied Intamin's track?
  17. It's not Zamperla judging from the restraint. I think it might me SBF.
  18. Coca Cola from McDonald's
  19. Yeah, I'm pretty much playing a psychological game here. It's whether extremely hard it just two clicks on RCDB.
