NEWS: Mumbai to gain country's largest coaster in new park

[PKI Jizzman]

Very cool. Thanks for posting this!

[Blatch]

That B&M Floorless they put in there looks like a larger version of Batman: The Dark Knight at Six Flags New England, only with a different (and rather strange) first drop. Of course, any country that can put one of these in their park deserves high praise, and the ride, plus the Premier LSM dark ride coaster, look like fun rides.

Oh and by the way, here's some infos about Deep Space I took at the EAS:

 

Excellent find, sir. I notified rcdb.com of these findings. Deep Space has been almost a complete mystery until now.

Great stuff! Excited to see the finished products. I hope to get out there someday!

Update: the park's B&M Floorless coaster (Nitro) opened today and there is a page for it now up on the Adlabs Imagica Website.

Looks like a standard, but fun, B&M!

Looks like a fun little B&M! Reminds me a lot of the Batman - The Dark Knight at Six Flags New England...

The official launch page for Nitro can be found here: http://park.adlabsimagica.com/nitro-launch.

 

I especially love the unintentionally comical audio. My favorite phrase from it is, "...just you and your deepest, darkest fears on a one-way trip...to HELL!" (dun dun dun).

 

Here are Nitro's official stats from rcdb.com and the Adlabs Imagica website (both places have incomplete data, but are complete when they are combined):

 

Opened: 9 October 2013

Height: 132 feet

Length: 2,800 feet

Speed: 65.2 mph

Inversions: 5

Ride time: 150 seconds

Cars per train: 6

 

For those wondering why Nitro only has 6-car trains, it's because Nitro is a "smaller" floorless model (for B&M) like Daemonen at Tivoli Gardens, which also has 6-car trains.

Yeah, the ride is 132 feet tall, there's not really anything small about it. Whatever the reason for the short trains it is not the size of the coaster.

Much more likely the way it was designed or customer request.

Mre cars means more $ for maintaining so I think it would be a reason. Plus the first drop might have some ejector on the back row if the train gets longer which I think it's really "not B&M" so B&M shortened the trsin to make it "B&M" Just guessing...

[rtilley93]

A newer offride video of Nitro has found its way onto Youtube which shows the entire coaster from start to finish.

Funny, it's king of weird to see such short B&M trains given that this is not a really small coaster. Looks good, though.

[jedimaster1227]

It looks like the trains really fly through the course on this one! Looks great!

[The Yeti]

I really like the first drop on this one. It looks like it could good g's and even give some airtime!

[jray21]

It does look like it runs through the course pretty quick for a B&M.

[mrlego611]

I saw the advert for the ride. It's tagline made me laugh so hard. "Are you man enough?" Shouldn't it be "Are you BRAVE enough?"

Still seems like a cool ride, though.

[The Yeti]

I found a POV of their indoor Premier Launch coaster. Looks pretty good, maybe better than Rock N Rollercoaster!

Wow! That does look like a really good little coaster. I would love to see more Premiers being built... They have been building some really cool stuff lately.

[TheAmazingCP]

I can't tell whether Nitro is actually that much faster than normal B&Ms or if it just looks faster because of the shorter trains. Either way, it looks like a great ride.

[rcjp]

For some reason I get the idea that lighter trains achieve higher speeds on the drops more easily but then lose more than the heavier ones in the high elements. I don't know why but that's the feeling I get, sometimes with floorless vs sitting models (does anyone know if floorless trains are heavier than sitting ones? They somehow look that way but I'm not sure). Anyway, if they have less rows they at least appear to move a bit more quickly through some elements (to me).

[neovortex2k]

Wow Nitro really goes fast around the track. To me it kind of looks like a mini Dragon Khan.

[A.J.]

Deep Space certainly looks like a better roller coaster than Rock n' Roller Coaster but I think that Rock n' Roller Coaster would be a better complete experience (queue + pre-show + coaster). But obviously I haven't been to India, so...

[jray21]

I know this may be a lot to ask, but is there any official POV of this ride yet?

[rcjp]

^Not that I know of as I've been regularly checking for new videos and I've seen nothing.
