Ferrari World Discussion Thread

If you take a closer look at those supports of the airtime hill...I guess that you can see, that one side of that upcoming "monster" loop will be connected to it

Yes I agree! The last picture

[GeorgeT]

I think it`s very obvious in this one

That support is standing on it's own, it's not connected to the hill.

Wow that's quite a bit of work done. This ride almost seemed to come out of nowhere and it looks awesome.

Feel-good story of the day:

 

Irish tourist takes Dubai cabbie for Ferrari World joyride

 

They call it the luck of the Irish, and it appears, Liam Murphy’s cup runneth over as the man from Cork spread some good cheer when he cut a ticket for his taxi driver on a joyride to Ferrari World.

 

The kind-hearted test engineer, who was in Dubai on a business trip, decided to invite his driver on a whim to join him in the Yas Island theme park when he learned the Indian national had never been inside the park despite making countless trips to drop off customers at its gates over the years.

^Those are going to be two incredible coasters

[TheoB]

Looks like another awesome Intamin. Appears to have elements from all the big name Intamin coasters from what I see. Please come back to the United States

 

You think the U.S. has an Intamin drought, at least you have good Intamins. In the UK we don't even have a decent hyper,, (though we do have Nemesis) but every good Intamin also wrecks that

Oh my...

[rcjp]

That airtime hill looks like it might give some serious air!

[Nickstroberg]

Looks like I need to start planning my trip

[_koppen]

It keeps growing!

[RyanTPM]

Intamin shaping is art

Looks fantastic. Hopefully one day I can make it out to this park!

[TyRush]

This potentially could make it up to one of my most anticipated coasters. (Taron and Lightning Rod)

[bf9]

So does anyone know what kind of trains it'll have? I don't recall it ever being announced, but if this is a wing coaster I'd probably have to say this coaster looks like it's going to be nuts. Intamin is going to strike back next year it seems!

[TyRush]

Any new progress on the rise?

I'm just guessing here. But I bet it is just going to be the typical two across with 2 rows per car kind of train... Like Maverick, i305, Kingda Ka... ect. Most likely themed to a Ferrari. I could be wrong. But I don't think we will being seeing the winged trains on this coaster.

I seem to have missed this, but when will the new rides open to the public? Was it 2016 or 2017?

I actually remember now reading some rumor about 1-1.5 year ago saying Intamin would build a large wing-coaster in the middle east. So it's not entirely impossible that it will get Skyrush trains, even though I think it's unlikely.

[Nickstroberg]

I'm voting Skyrush styled trains, the shaping of the elements seems very consistent with Skyrush's, not to mention the whole "Flying Aces" theme is totally congruent with wing styled seating. Just baseless guesses though
