JonnyRCT3 Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 Saturday, November 17, 2007 Charleston GazetteValley Hills Amusement Park, the regional leader in innovative thrills, today announced plans to unveil their newest "world class attraction!" Park spokesperson, David Trust, was on the scene to comment. "Yes, we here at Valley Hills are almost ready to announce the latest installment in Valley Hills record of world class thrill rides. This project, known as project 2008X, will be officially announced on December 20, 2007 at 6 P.M. as the single largest investment in the park's 35-year history. I can't let the cat out of the bag just yet, however, I have been given the go-ahead to give out a few clues; Up, up, and then away! These two pictures make a very striking mixture! Not much else can be revealed, besides the fact that it will be a European manufacturer. Particularly, one we're proud to be working with again. Also, here is the final clue. Snap, Crackle & Pop your way into 2008!" _____________________ Not much else was revealed about the next ride to be installed at Valley Hills. However, the internet is abuzz with rumors floating around every theme park website. The popular opinion seems to be a Flying, Dive, or Hypercoaster, all manufactured by the Swiss firm Bolliger & Mabillard, which the park has worked with before. However, some even speculate a Giga or Hypercoater from the Swiss manufacturer Intamin, which the park has also worked with before. We here at the Charleston Gazette also agree with this! And we have got as close to the action as possible, and have visual evidence of some assembly work going on in the park's parking lot. Whatever this is, it's going to be enormous!

tarheel1231 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 Well, whatever it is, it looks like it will hang beneath the track from that last picture of the support. I'm excited to see what happens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 It hangs below the track, it's definitely B&M, and VH already has an invert, so I'm going with a custom B&M Flyer. EDIT: my 600th post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atter Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 What if it ends up being a custom Vekoma Flying Dutchmen, a B&M flyer seems too obvious. I can't wait to find out what it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheel1231 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Bump. Is the next update going to include the new coaster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyRCT3 Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 (edited) ^One more before the big reveal, I will most likely release it sometime this weekend. Also, Valley Hills public roller coaster Survey! survey closed. Edited August 13, 2014 by JonnyRCT3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALT2870 Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 It seems to be too obvious that it is a B&M of some type. (Most likely a Flyer.) Between the supports and that fact back on one of the first post about it related to Gladiator, a B&M still really seems like it. But you wouldn't make it that easy would you? I think the only other off chance is a Vekoma Dutchman which has supports that look like those in the pictures.. (It would have to be custom track though because none went higher then Pulse.)

VF15 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I still think it will be a B&M, but now I'm thinking it's going to be a flyer because that's what most clues seem to be pointing to now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriaAus101 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I can't wait to see what the big 08 has instore for us i think it will be a Flying coaster but not sure if it will be a Dutchmen or not... I love this Park so much i made me do my own!! can't wait to see what it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheel1231 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Well it's the weekend..... I wanna see the new coaster! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atter Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 I hope the new ride is announced soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyRCT3 Posted August 10, 2014 Author Share Posted August 10, 2014 I know I said I'd release an update this weekend but I haven't had enough free time to do so. Sorry. Next update will be VERY soon though. Hopefully, this is enough to tie ya'll over. _____________________________________ Wednesday, December 19, 2007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atter Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 The tallest and fastest B&M flying coaster? I hope so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarheel1231 Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 ^^Not a Banshee, huh? You work for a Park PR! These teasers are pretty good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALT2870 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I had this thought on the back of my mind, but I'm pretty sure now, a B&M invert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atter Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 ^But what about Ignition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALT2870 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That's what I thought, but it wouldn't that strange to have two inverts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atter Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I guess so, La Ronde has two inverts, but from different companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyRCT3 Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) ^Well, Valley Hill at one time had 3 inverted coasters. Food for thought... ______________________________ I thank you all for you continued support of this park as it has become the 3rd most viewed RCT park in the past year on the TPR forums (25,000+). And is also the most replied to RCT park on the forum in the past year. Thank you all! Now, regarding the survey. The flood of responses has helped me immensely in choosing what to do for the future for the park, and not just coasters. Anyways, principal photography has finished for the next update and I hope to have it posted later this evening or early tomorrow. EDIT: Wednesday it is. Sorry, my schedule has been unorthodox lately. Edited August 12, 2014 by JonnyRCT3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atter Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 My final guess before the announcement will be a B&M Invert that is larger than Ignition, similar to how Canada's Wonderland (and eventually Carowinds) has a small B&M Hyper Coaster and a larger B&M Giga Coaster!
