AmyUD06 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 RMC hasn't done a traditional loop on any of their coasters. It could just be the bottom portion of a hill too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Is that larger than typical Ibox track? Or is it the size of the Free Spin rails? Or perhaps something in between? Very cool. I'm excited to see what this is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canobie Coaster Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 They closed their antique car ride so they could use that sizable building as a station/queue and then have the ride run down that empty midway and then go behind the arcade/restaurant. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SixFlagsAstroworld Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Can't wait for the official reveal! I actually feel like this could be the new Family Hybrid Coaster concept that RMC recently put on their website. That would still be a nice fit for a park this size Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tndank Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 "It's no kiddie coaster." Colors will be red, white, and blue. Seems they recently trademarked Aire Force One name. Sports teams tie in fell through, so that might be for this. They have broken ground in Atlanta. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tndank Posted June 25, 2021 Share Posted June 25, 2021 And it appears the layout was leaked today. An L shaped out and back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegendLover Posted June 30, 2021 Share Posted June 30, 2021 Show of hands: who still thinks this is gonna be the new RMC family coaster? 🖐🖐 Just kidding. I always thought it would be an extreme hybrid, but I was honestly expecting like a Storm Chaser-sized hybrid. By the size of this element, this looks to be more of a Goliath-sized hybrid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I highly doubt we are looking at something that will reach almost 200ft in height Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrillseeker4552 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Wow, they're really saying F U to Twisted Cyclone...lol. Seriously though, this looks awesome based on that one element alone.

SSL Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I cannot believe that little ol' fun spot is gonna get a legit ground up RMC. still amazes me, but I can't wait to see more of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks like a LARGE element. It will need a lot of speed to make it through. I don't think we are just looking at a 100-120 foot tall RMC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuxedomask5432 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Haha wow! If you had told me that Atlanta would be home to two amazing RMCs I would have never believed you. I’ve actually never been to Fun Spot Atlanta. The location is on the exact opposite side of the city from me, so it seemed like a haul for one coaster. But now? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtesy of Park fan VIA screamscape I am trying to be realistic here and realize that while not impossible, I find it not likely a company of this size will install a coaster doubled the height of it's tallest coaster in a park that still has a long way to go to catch up to the caliber of the orlando parks. The inversion looks to be no more than 80ft at that which is still impressive. I think we are looking at white lightning 2.0. The leg facing the highway having the lift and immelman/dive and the small airtime and maybe a large hill and most of the action happening on the leg on the inside of the park.. Again, I am not trying to hype the coaster up so much which happens all too often (especially when the layout is actually revealed) but trying to temper expectations and be realistic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, prior to Mine Blower and White Lightning, the same could be said about either of the other Fun Spots. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I understand which is why I would expect something with the same caliber/size of those coasters. I honestly had to laugh aloud at the thought of something the size of goliath at SFGAm. But yes, I look back on Hercules and Chang and wonder. . .

SSL Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I mean I'd fully expect a Zero-G stall under the lift hill. Wouldn't surprise me to see a turn around element at the loop at the back of the park similar to Twisted Cyclone. that's 4 inversions already...1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 Yeah, the supports give way for a stall attached to the zadra style lift. SO we have lift, drop, dive loop, small bunny hill, stall, some type of 90 degree angled turn hills, some off centered low ground hills towards the turn around which probably has an outer banking at its crest, an inline roll and some more hills.

ytterbiumanalyst Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 That layout looks pretty short. If the loop is that big, this would basically be YOLOCoaster East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

prozach626 Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 Anytime you make a comment referring to an RMC creation that's negative, or even neutral, it has been deemed 'hate speech' by some coaster enthusiasts. Apologize to those you have offended, I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Okay, fine. I'm sorry I looked at this outline and thought it looked similar to a coaster I rode a few years ago that I really enjoyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
