andy_e219 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 This www.rcdb.com/ig2785.htm?picture=1 I don't understand why they even consider this a coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaparri Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 BEHOLD! The dragon coasters in RCT3 are REAL!!! AND there's more than one of them! ...And so is the tilt coaster! If you do enough research, you will find that all of the coasters in RCT are either real or were real concepts by actual companies. The only exceptions that I know of would be some of the goofy train shells (like some of the animal trains). However, most of those aren't inconceivable.

Groteslurf Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Wow, that Afterburner ride is strange. I think the weirdest ride I know. Maybe not the weirdest coaster but IMO certainly one of the weirdest trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBru Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 ^Holy crap there better be brakes at the end of that first drop, imagine if there wasnt, OMG that would be terrible! Actually, there are brakes going all the way down both "drops". See those extra red things in the center or the track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

signal Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Maximum RPM gets my vote, simply because of the lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry_Gumball Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 This one... http://rcdb.com/id2272.htm Looks like a nicely themed twin tracked "Butterfly" coaster as in the one at Bon Bon Land.[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattnz Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 'Vertigorama' - Built in 1983 and still not open. Looks like a Togo Jet Coaster, but it's Intamin! http://www.rcdb.com/id1506.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLIPDUDE Posted June 24, 2008 Share Posted June 24, 2008 Well, besides the obvious nominations that have been mentioned already I ahve to mention, first of all, Rakevet Harim, at an amsuement pakr not too far from where I live. It has the weirdest layout, It is powered, goes up in giant spirals, rides close to the cieling(it's an indoor park), and has pretty much no interesting drops. It's a kiddy ride, only it's waaaaaay up high in the air. Also, it has weird enclsoed cars. But the WEIRDEST thing about it is that NOBODY knows what company made it! Not even the park managment! I asked them! And it doesn't look like any coaster I've ever seen. One of the coaster's two spiral "lift hills" The coaster's "Drop" from the cieling into the station. The artificial mountain that it goes through at some point Doesn't look like MACK or TOGO to me! And another one thats pretty high up on the WTF scale is the Orphan Rocker. Aside from its completely bizzare name, this coaster is one of the weirdest coasters on the planet. The coaster was built in 1988 and never opened to the public because of problems. They kept trying to work on it and opening it but it never did open. The cars are bizzare, they are like a suspended coaster without being suspended! Layout-wise, this looks like the world's biggest kiddie coaster. No giant drops or any scary manouvers, but it covers a HUGE area and has some steep turns. But one of the things that makes this coaster the weirdest is that it has a turn on the edge of a 200m(about 600ft) CLIFF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
