bert425 Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 was there today as well and by about 5:30 they had removed the second train from wonder woman operation... So they we're running just one train and it was pretty packed after that... Luckily I rode it twice around noon time. [attachment=0]IMG_20180506_115347.jpg[/attachment]I not surprising. . it seemed that one train was causing the shutdowns (and had seat 7 roped off for a while). so they must have taken that train off.

Mrlittle Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 I thought I saw a few asking about a test seat. They have one now. I’m hoping to make a trip this weekend to ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoasterLover Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Looks like a lot of fun! Hoping one of these comes to one of the east coast SF parks (preferably SFNE, SFA, or SFGAdv) next year so I can get a chance to try one of these out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Honestly I think Great Escape could most use this since the capacity wouldn't be a killer for them and they'd finally get a good steel coaster. But really these are so awesome that I wouldn't complain if any park got them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Honestly I think Great Escape could most use this since the capacity wouldn't be a killer for them and they'd finally get a good steel coaster. But really these are so awesome that I wouldn't complain if any park got them. There are so many smaller Six Flags and Cedar Fair parks that could totally benefit from an RMC Raptor (even if they just keep cloning this layout). The first ones that come to mind for me are Six Flags St. Louis (Joker themed?), Six Flags America (Harley Quinn themed?), Great Escape like you said, and even Valleyfair, Dorney, Michigan's Adventure (lol) - the list goes on. Super stoked to try out Railblazer this July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vertec909 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Does look really good at night! When we went there last year even tho we where only there for one day its was alot cheaper to get a season pass with bring a guest free than to buy two normal passes, so may go back this year when back in Texas to ride this!

DoinItForTheFame Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 WOW!!! Just... wow. Such a beautiful photo of such a beautiful coaster! The off ride videos make this thing look even more insane than before!! Holy crap! I can't wait to ride it. It's running balls to the wall!!! I just hope over time it doesn't get neutered.

X2coasterfreak Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 (edited) It's running balls to the wall!!! I just hope over time it doesn't get neutered. Are we really still worried about this? People were totally convinced after the first testing video that it would never run that fast with guests...and now it's running that fast with guests. I think it's safe to say now these are purposefully intense coasters that will continue to be purposefully intense.

Sportsdude360 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 These new RMC Rail coasters look to be a ton of fun. The good news is that many parks will likely be getting these in the future. There will eventually be one within driving distance of just about everyone on these forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy T. Koepp Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 This thing maintains so much speed! Looking forward to getting down there and riding it soon. I am also looking forward to seeing some custom designs come out in the future elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bert425 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 love the night footage, and gives me real incentive to stay until closing one of these days (even tho I then have an hour and 1/2 drive home) really appreciate TPR for filming and getting this out there! As I mentioned over on FB, I'm very surprised there is no lighting in the pond, as it is a beautiful baby blue during the day (which I assume is the bottom of the pond painted).. so it looks SO different at night, with the water being so dark.

Negative - the bottom of the pond is unpainted. The water from what I saw in a video interview is treated and cleaned, with the pumps being the stuff to the left of the transfer shed. The lighting as is right now at night looks fantastic; especially that spotlight. No complaints here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrlittle Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I got 3 rides in today. Rode in the last seat, front seat and 5th seat. I think I liked the 5th seat ride best. It’s a great ride with nice airtime and really smooth. RMC and Fiesta have another winner. BTW, so they had single rider line open but you have to tell the employees you want to go to it. That’s how I was able to ride 3 times on opening day. Although I will say they were moving the line pretty well with their system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
