Six Flags Mexico (SFM) Discussion Thread

Not sure which announcement is more exciting... Medusa or a Mexico TPR trip!

Love this! Way to give me a reason to want to visit Mexico.

TPR Spring Break Mexico Trip 2015 CONFIRMED!!!!

 

Yes!!!!!!

[attack7]

I'm really happy to see that the NTAG incident hasn't scared parks off of RMC. And yes, the inversion/drop on this thing pushes all kinds of buttons.

[I305KD]

That drop is just.... Wow.

[chickenbowl]

I hope they release a full POV of this coaster soon! I'm really interested in what the layout is. I think Medusa had the best pre-existing layout to begin with (out of Texas Giant and Rattler) so it's interesting to see how much they're actually re-profiling.

[Geauga Dog]

Medusa Steel Coaster and SFGAm's new Goliath are truly THE stand-out looking rides for next year. Very surprised they did a rollover right before the first drop - that's gong to be insane.

Not sure which announcement is more exciting... Medusa or a Mexico TPR trip!

 

I would go with BOTH! Mexico was a great trip! I have been wanting to go back and with this announcement it gives me a great excuse. Not that I ever needed an excuse to go back because it IS Mexico!

Mas suave.

 

Rico Suave.

^I seriously almost lost it when 'Mas Suave' came up on the screen! Can't wait to go back!!!

[vacoaster09]

^Me too... They just needed a sexy latin voice to say it.

[Wes]

Robb needs to edit a segement when you guys shoot the POV and use that song.

 

This looks really really really really great...would love to see a full layout.

[DJeXeL]

RMC is on a roll. Can't wait to see the layout.

[raptor6]

This alone makes me want to take the TPR Mexico Trip in 2015. Now that I'm out of college, I'll finally be able to afford my first one!

[robbalvey]

The park sent me the full version of the video. Wow... Check this out!!!

That first drop is absolutely insane!

[Hilltopper39]

Wow, freaking amazing. After seeing this it just gives more and more hope that a similar upgrade might one day take place on rides like mean Streak, Ghost Rider, Voyage, etc.

[chickenbowl]

Basically it follows the exact same layout and general profile but with all of the RMC shaping goodness. I also wonder if it will use steel wheels for that long of a layout. The friction is much lower than with poly wheels.

 

However I think it looks like the best RMC remake so far, for sure. It basically combines NTAG and IRAT into one epic ride.

 

I was thinking the same thing about steel wheels. This looks to be the smallest of the 5 RMCs, but it seems pretty long. Medusa had a good layout to start, but this just looks awesome!

TPR Spring Break Mexico Trip 2015 CONFIRMED!!!!

 

Interesting......

[Intaman]

I'm really happy that the park will have this type of major attraction. It certainly could use it. If I don't get to Mexico next year, I will definitely look at Spring Break 2015.

[willh51]

Wow! They really outdid themselves here. That's some awesome engineering and a nice tribute to old Medusa's twisted layout. That drop

[ZeroGravity55]

I've been interested to see what RMC would do with one of these CCI coasters for some time and this exceeded my expectations by a long shot. To be quite honest, I kind of want to ride this more than the new coaster at Six Flags Great America, but I'm sure both are going to be great. 2014 looks like it's going to be a hell of a year!

[dropzonefan]

Mdusa looks absolutely AMAZING! I can't imagine how great RMC's full steel coasters will be if they ever decide to make one.

[chickenbowl]

Now we can see what potential Boss has in it's layout if it ever get's RMC'd! Boss is just on a larger scale than Medusa!
