What's new

Nürburgring | Ring°Racer | S&S Compressed Air Launch

Wow those guys work fast...I was at Nurburgring in July, and the coaster still had a quite a lot of track missing, including the top of a loop back. Looks like it'll be good though.
 
I'm going to the 'Ring tomorrow. If I find the time, I might be able to investigate. If it's open, I'll go on it, but I doubt it!
 
The video launch is nearly half speed (130km/h)!
At the moment they are doing some test rides!
 
I don't want to spam, but...
Why can't I post links to other web sites?
To prevent spambots posting links to porn sites and people just signing up to plug their own site, you need to be a member for at least 24 hours and have five posts on your count before you can.

Hey Mikkey, welcome to CF.

In future, can you post all that into one message instead of a few lines in each message.
 
I apologize, but I had to have 5 posts before posting links...I already wanted to post some images and links in August, but it hasn't been possible because of the newbie-policies!

It looks like there has been another set back. I'm not the best with German but after an online translation it seem there had been a pneumatic problem during testing yesterday involving a loud bang.

Nürburgring. The breakdown series at the Nürburgring tears not off. On Thursday again a loud bang shook the racing course at the Eifel - and again the new roller coaster was ring Racer of the causers. According to Nürburgring GmbH " it came against 13 o'clock to an incident during tests to the Pneumatik".
 
Sounds like thats the same problem that they had when it broke last time.

I wonder when the ride will be removed lol, or it gets run at a lower speed.
 
I have a feeling that Kingda Ka will be holding the record for sometime, and I can image this never working at full speed in the future, maybe the speed of a Premier LIML.
 
Those are some sexy looking curves there. They're not B&M, but hey.

It's funny how everybody in the building stops what they are doing to turn their heads when the car goes by overhead. :lol:
