A ton of factors play into that. The park could have either specifically requested that feature, or liked it enough to purchase it when Intamin pitched it to them. Keeping the same tophat height, but with no trims, requires larger elements later on, which in turn requires more physical space...

Yes... that is the entire purpose, to create a "cliffhanger drop" effect. They didn't just add trims willy nilly because it was going too fast, it is intentional and the rest of the layout is designed proportionally to this.

No meme, that's actually slow as 💩. I UNDERSTAND that there are a lot of variables here (High of only 55°F in Madrid during that video, it still being the initial test runs, wheels aren't broken in yet, potentially minimal launch speed, etc.), but that speed right there looks actually sad. More...

Work progressing nicely, layout's almost done: And a quick mockup of the full layout I did: Love these little multi-direction, reuse-the-same-track kind of concepts! More photos: https://www.facebook.com/bayernpark/posts/pfbid0NdH7dbWEVabsUkHgSNjGw5DXSDqkw5a5LLoxM4Cm6g4KHvsnoZ6nb6nWhnYgL4pql

Fine, I'll bite

Today is Winter Chill Out at the park, and there's some dot-connecting happening. Track and supports have been removed from a section of Iron Dragon. While not all that unusual by itself, the location is extremely interesting: Directly behind the station, EXACTLY WHERE A BACKWARDS SPIKE...

Vekoma has quietly unveiled a new LSM model; Ghostrider A quick POV render I did: Artwork for the new Hossoland park in Poland seems to feature this model, with a MCBR in place of the last barrel roll and an extended layout following.

the Ghost of Dale Earnhardt is not amused. Horrific name. Incredibly fitting, but bleh. Exodus is such a great name.

Looks slo- wait, no? That actually looks like good speed through there!

Wow you can totally now

Can't be bothered to search the 87 pages here, but do we know what colors this'll be? and if it'll have a Stealth-style color scheme where above X height will "blend" into the sky?

^Likely just a set of magnetic brakes to act as a trim, rather than a B&M-style holding brake.

I personally would rule it out totally. Mack coasters require far more foundations than what's shown, B&M Dive lines up perfectly with these plans. This ride being approved & built is still up in the air, but these plans are 100% for a B&M Dive.

Yeah, this is no Double Heart lol. Huge thanks to Zachary at ParkFans for FOIA'ing these. Full site overview below, view the full packet of plans HERE: All footers that I can identify are marked in green below. These are likely just preliminary plans and do not show the full amount or...

They kind of did. It's clearly shown the concept art you posted🙃😆 https://coasterforce.com/forums/threads/tusenfryd-storm-gerstlauer-invert-2023.43996/post-1138094

Theoretically, you could launch Train 1 from Launch 1 (is there a confirmed show scene here?) and through Launch 2 while Train 2 is doing it's braking swing & is on the turntable, but the turntable must be reset before Train 1 hits Launch 3, otherwise the Train 1 will stack & operations get...

The track is simply not finished with fabrication. It doesn't have any of the diagonal bracing welded on yet. Scroll up a half-dozen scrolls to see the finished track in post #529.

^5 coasters total. 1 & 2: Mack Rides dueling LSM coasters (rumored name 'Starfall Racers'), located in the main hub of the park, possibly more 'stylized' than themed. 3. Mack Rides spinning coaster - themed to The Wolfman, one of the classic Universal Monsters. 4. Intamin Family Launch Coaster...

IT HAS 7 CAR TRAINS

This precisely. Gwazi is downright powerful, relentless, with mindblowing pacing. Vengeance isn't as much of those things, but the length as well as the combination of insane trimless, halloweekends night rides I've had on it have it solidly locked at #1. Only a few rides out there I could see...
