BeemerBoy Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 This thread is seriously out of control now.....and I love it. There's nothing like a good comedy. The only thing missing is on-site soil samples and Kinzel's family tree being analyzed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidcoaster Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 A teaser sign at the construction site reads "Ya'll up for some serious sidewindin'?" -- adding some creditability to the rumors that the new roller coaster will have a western theme and possibly be called Maverick. Cedar Point was originally trying to hide this track under blue tarps. Seems they have given up on that as the tarps have been removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scttmn31 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Supports are now on site. If you go to pointbuzz, you can see pictures of them there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultimate Coaster Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 So don't be so rude about other peoples beliefs and then do pretty much the same thing. Making a conclusion without GOOD evidence. I have yet to find people providing evidence other than "Oh, that looks like an inline twist". As opposed to, say, me, who researched into it and found OTHER solutions than what it initially looked like. I back my claims up, don't accuse me of not doing so.

CD Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 You backed up your claims just like all the others before you. Show a piece of track on the site and compare it to another that is on an operating coaster. So whether you believe so or not you are being a hypocrite! I wasn't accusing you of not backing up your claims, but not having sufficient evidence instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATman Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ^^^I see you haven't been reading this thread. But hey, at least you aren't arguing over layout when there is no physical way to prove anything at all. ^^Not all of the track has arrived, so just stop arguing when it makes no sense. Believe what you want to believe and let other's do the same. Honestly, does it have to go either way? They haven't even announced the friggin thing yet... Does it really matter that much, that you have to argue over something so insignificant and unknown? You can guess, but you have no substantial PROOF until the layout is released.

Screamomatic Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I don't think it will have inversions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CD Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I am just aggravated over people making stupid comets about what the ride WILL do when they have absolutely no clue. I don't care if people make an assumption of what it might do. It just drives ma crazy when people think that they a 100% correct, with no sufficient evidence, and they don't care about what other people think will happen.

HCOSurfer90 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Was the "inline twist" piece of track triangular or flat because on Intamin coasters, an inline twist has flat track as you can see here: http://rcdb.com/ig1412.htm?picture=19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJackson Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 There have been other full track twists. I don't know the difference between Incline twists and heartline twists, they feel the same to me, but Storm Runner has a box track twist. http://rcofw.free.fr/photo/228/big/1.jpg But since the track on-site is twisted like that, it does look like it could have a triangle track twist.

coasterdude5 Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ^Heart line twists make your heart the center of motion, on inline twists, your feet (i think) are the center of motion, or what everything spins around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millennium ForceJZ Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I don't think it will have inversions. Ugh yes it will! We already know it will have a corckscrew! Oh yea, this isn't rcpro. Go to rcpro's topic on this and it will answer your inversions questions. There is a pice of track that is the exact same as the one in Colossus' corckscrew.

Beate's Freak Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ^Heart line twists make your heart the center of motion, on inline twists, your feet (i think) are the center of motion, or what everything spins around. Actually, an inline twist has the track at the center and your body goes around the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJackson Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 So wouldn't Colossus have heartline twists? From the photo link posted earlier, it looks like the spin would be through an imaginary line through your heart, by the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Sabo Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 This thread is just going around and around in circles now. The more I read it, the more things are just being repeated now..lol Perhaps just wait until the announcement and just post links on the pic-updates of new track and supports arriving. We are already at about 70 pages for crying out loud..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATman Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 ^^^Not true. Inline twists are where the car moves around the track, and heartline rolls are where the track moves around the car.

ECZenith Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 I agree. I've been guilty of looking too far into it, just gonna wait till the announcement before I even check back with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattJackson Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 ^ Yeah, that's what I thought. I'm just gonna keep watching this thread, I like to see people post ideas and other people telling them "No, we already know it WILL have...". And then all of them being proven wrong at it's announcement!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twister II Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 ^^^Not true. Inline twists are where the car moves around the track, and heartline rolls are where the track moves around the car. In-Line: http://rcdb.com/ig3305.htm?picture=63 Heartline: http://rcdb.com/ig1412.htm?picture=19 inline twist = heartline roll same thing different name. Nope. A heartline twist has its name for a reason. Using the CAD programs, some guy (who also created the tear drop loop) pin pointed the middle of the train, where the hearts on average people are. Then he designed the track to rotate around the heart, so it would still travel in a, somewhat, straight line. The in-line twist is there the heart goes around the track. There's your history lesson for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP_RULES Posted June 17, 2006 Share Posted June 17, 2006 ^LMAO! This is getting fun to watch, we are so off topic! Anyways, about the CP coaster, Im still hoping Wing "Wind" walker, and agree that if the translation really is "Wind" then it is most likely a Wing Walker because one of the clues mentioned wind.... -Justin "All that blabbing was just to say LMAO at jarmor, the rest is just to follow the rules of "adding to the topic" lol" Seabaugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
