as you can see on a b&m hyper coaster the seats are tilted back and that is the secondary restraint because if your lap bar comes up the tilted seat combined with g-force it will keep you in the seat
No it wont. Your coming out of that seat in the front row hanging over the first drop.
As well as on the brake run...

World's lamest record, still should be pretty darn sweet though. Pumped that it wasn't a wing.

Don said this is going to take up 13 acres. Still think it's gonna be small??

13 acres out of 364...Beast takes up 35 acres...so, about 1/3 the space of The Beast.
Not all that big, in comparison to a record breaking woodie, but big.
Would stay in line with the current thinking, 4,000-5,000 feet in length.
I305 is on 5 acres

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, et nam possit labitur veritus, novum quaestio te mei. Vis in mazim viderer, no posse ludus nam. No recteque mnesarchum quo, his eirmod insolens constituam ut. Iracundia referrentur theophrastus in eum, ex autem nullam disputando eum, his nibh percipitur ei. Has no vide maluisset assentior.??? huh?
​Sorry Double post.
It is important to be able to and he falls for fear lest, a new you of my question. Force in mazim seemed not to be able to play for. No mnesarchum which is good cause, these unusual, to throw. Theophrastus anger back at him, but no discussion of it, these labels is perceived him. Has made would have preferred to see, I agree

In 2019 I will probably expect a strata with a LSM lift like skyrush.
It would be more reliable than their cable lift.

I'm in the inverted camp firmly, but just for speculations sake, could they build or would there even be a reason to build a wing rider where it hung below the track? Could that prevent the need for dual side loading and speed up load times?
Take a minute to imagine what the support structure for such a coaster would look like.

Anyone think The Bat references could be kind of a historical comparison? The Bat was a failed design whose site that Vortex, a world breaking coaster, grew out of. Now we again have a failed coaster's site that is sprouting a world record coaster. Doubtful that is the intention, but it is interesting nonetheless.
I can somewhat see what you're saying, SoB was also a world breaking coaster.

If we're assuming 45 degree lift, height is insanely easy to estimate using the scale.

THIS IS NOT MY PICTURE I AM ONLY RE-POSTING FROM WHAT WAS SUPPLIED ONLINE
WHAT IS THIS? (Circled)
A diversion.

Indeed the Son of Beast was the first wooden looping coaster terp, that is one thing you are wrong about
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_loop
Ouch, no thanks to the 13' symmetrical loop.

Enlighten me, terp.

World's first coaster to sit on the former site of the world's first looping wooden coaster.

I'll say this: I'm fairly certain if B&M were designing a water ride, the vehicles would actually fit. You cannot say Intamin reliability issues are overblown, and that it's not on Intamin - obviously there is a pattern. In fact, as of now a 3 year old coaster (which had to be modified upon completion, not unlike another recent Intamin creation) is inoperable and expected to be down for up to 8 more weeks.
I'm not saying I prefer one to the other, I'm simply pointing out that there are certain reliability issues with Intamin designs. IMO the reason B&M machines are so much more reliable, and so much more forceless, is due to a superior engineering team. I by no means prefer forceless, but when you look at these companies side-by-side from a customer's point of view, Intamin appears somewhat fly by night.

I have another tab open with Yakety Sax playing on loop in the background as I catch up on this thread.

not new to this topic but a "confirmation"!, but on sunday while in The Beast line, a couple of teens informed me that their dad worked in maintenance and confirmed that Vortex is sinking "like 5 inches a year and used to be taller than Diamondback"
Ah yes, good ole 1816 - the last year Vortex had one up on Diamondback.

I have no clue who created this but the footers and the layout look extremely close to what we see with the 2014 project! I think this might be spot on!
Nice! I certainly would not object to this. That thing is a hoss!

Can someone sum what happened up in the past few two days? I didn't read it and I'm not going through a hundred pages when my time could be better spent elsewhere.
Someone lied, everyone cried.
I miss that thread right now.

I'm still thinking it's going to be some variation of a wingrider/4D coaster. I really would like a Giga, but I will be happy with a new coaster no matter what it is.
450 foot Vekoma SLC that is 14,000 feet long?

Just curious, but does anyone remember what Screamscape said during the follow-up of Diamondback?
2009 - B&M Hypercoaster - Rumor - (6/9/08) Make the jump over to KICentral to see some great aerial photos taken of the park showing off the 2009 coaster construction site. In addition to the now complete splashdown lagoon area you can see theyve been clearing more space out in the woods past The Crypt.^Less than a month before the announcement
(and exactly 4 years ago today)
Five.

Just trying to point out that everyone's opinions will differ - and no one opinion is right or wrong. Well, unless someone is hoping for a Vekoma SLC....
I'm in the giga camp, but I wouldn't mind an impressive invert.
But the signs say no camping
I'm in cahoots with Dippin' Dots and AZ old lady.

Says you...Speed and height is not everything........
To others speed and height ARE everything.
Then to them, Son of Beast is the best wood coaster evah and Kingda Ka steel.
Sheesh.
