Sven20 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Gimmicky as expected. It's a mid to low range launch coaster a la Stunt Coaster speeds, not a big thrill coaster. Edited August 30, 2018 by Sven20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bert425 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) So, do I have this right? Do you ride both sides then, like a mobius loop (after the "pit stop") or do you take two laps on the same side? Or? It looks really solid! from the animation, it looks like a Mobius track, and the "Pit Stop" is to give the original train something to look at and give them time to load the "fresh" train, while you get ready to race again. this looks great, and very interesting.

bluestreak Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 This ride looks amazing. I really need to find a way out there from Ohio. Hmmmm West Coast Bash 2019 is looking really attractive right now lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superbatboy Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Just dawned on me, people have been BEGGING for a Maverick type coaster at SFMM for years. Looks like we kinda finally have one. Low to the ground, multiple launches, inversions etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PARK_HOPPER Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Tonight at about 9:00 p.m., I thought it strange that the Wendy's on The Old Road was fairly busy - considering Magic Mountain closed at 6:00 p.m. I did see a few "pimped-up" cars in the Wendy's lot, but thought nothing of it - other than they may have been a group possibly a part of tonight's announcement, but not knowing the real reason other than a sheer coincidence. Ironically, across the street, the new McDonald's was dead...I mean dead not a single car in the drive-thru or any patrons inside the restaurant...very strange for McDonald's. The McDonald's near my home on Decoro Drive has more business at this time of night, and that's a fairly dead neighborhood after 9:00 p.m....lol PARK_HOPPER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't mean to repost the whole thing. I apologize for that, but did you really have to respond so rude like that? I assumed since you posted the link that it was live and that was where you got the press release from. No reason to come off so snippy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeroGravity55 Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 The trains kinda look like Premier trains, but the layout definitely flows like it was designed by Ride Centerline, which would probably make it an S&S ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MARK Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Will be interesting to see how effectively the whole pit stop/duelling aspect works, but nonetheless it looks fabulous. If they can get the duelling right those highly banked curves on top of one another will be great fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdcon Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Looks like the go cart tracks are below the coaster still. Do you think that they will leave them? zippin around on go carts while the coaster flys by a over you. Might be pretty cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasBaby Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Just dawned on me, people have been BEGGING for a Maverick type coaster at SFMM for years. Looks like we kinda finally have one. Low to the ground, multiple launches, inversions etc WCR looks like a lot of fun, I would love if it rides anything like Maverick. I didn’t see a ton of airtime in the animation, but you can’t always tell from these type of videos. I am curious about how many trains they can run on it. I see three trains in the video, but I wonder if the ride can handle more than that? Edited August 30, 2018 by VegasBaby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgtlover Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Looks like the go cart tracks are below the coaster still. Do you think that they will leave them? zippin around on go carts while the coaster flys by a over you. Might be pretty cool. From the press release: Currently located in this area is the popular wooden coaster, Apocalypse, and the Cyclone 500 Go Karts, which will undergo re-theming. New dining, games and retail locations will be added to complete the extensive area renovation. They are staying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
