Hank Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 With the change to floor-less trains, is the clocked speed of Rougarou expected to be faster, slower, or the same as when it was Mantis? Also, will any trim brakes be removed? I was always under the impression they were installed to ease G forces on the rider's legs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JubJester Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Someone posted a photo on here I forget who but it showed that the trim brake on the first drop was not painted. Everything else was but it wasn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 I don't think that they will remove the trim brake on the first drop. If anything, it will just be turned off as it would be easier to do that then remove only to find out it is still needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ride On_17 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Someone posted a photo on here I forget who but it showed that the trim brake on the first drop was not painted. Everything else was but it wasn't. I originally posted that picture showing the unpainted trims, but they have since been painted. Looks like they are staying, but wonder if they will be used. It could be possible that to save the cost of removing and fabricating new track, they just painted over it to save time and money without the intention to ever use it again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they will probably be turned off. Thanks for the info. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
