B&M exploited the concept of seats at each side of the track perfectly. This is much better than Furious Baco, which could've been any other type of ride and there would've been almost the same experience. The sharp, vertiginous turns and inversions are gonna be terrifying, but I think that the real showstopper will be the roll towards the end of the ride with the supports and obstacles that are such near-misses. We haven't seen fear displayed like this in a roller coaster for a long time.
@AwesomeCoasters Yeah, I can't wait because i'm going there later next year. I think your right, that'll be the scariest part. I'm just happy Great America is going to most likely have a record breaker here
On a car design like this, is it possible for the car to stall on the first half roll at the top of the hill if all the fat people are loaded on the left hand side?
@beautywithgina13 This will be going where Splash Water Falls was (closed 2007) and the antique cars (closed after the 2010 season) The Iron Wolf coaster will also be removed, but thats unrelated
every time i see anything about this, hear anything about this, or think about this. I get so excited and can't wait til next season so I can go to great america another ten times and have fun. :)
@liljdub08 ik they r different im not stupid it just reminded me of X2 duhhhhhh lol nd its my oppinion i just think X2 is more thrilling then this one dats all
This ride is being built were Iron Wolf used to be. And question why did they get rid of Splash Water Falls?
