With a 2500 foot steel track, 133 foot vertical lift hill, 5 inversions, a 101 degree first drop (that is steeper than anywhere in Iowa or our surrounding states) and 10 “airtime” moments - The Monster is sure to give you a thrilling scare!

Hopefully the video is accurate and it will only have lap bar restraints. I love that about Dare Devil Dive. I wish all Euro Fighters had them.

^I could only vote that up once!
Been pushing Dollywood to retrofit Mystery Mine ever since my first lap on DDD.
FWIW, of the three other "Infinity Coaster" models, only Smiler has (had?) OTSRs...and both Junker and karacho have four inversions. Hopefully that's a promising sign.
You still have Zoidberg.... You ALL have Zoidberg! (V) (;,,;) (V)
Koolcat-
It is a "classic" park, if what you mean is that it's a traditional style amusement park without themed areas. There are rides sprinkled throughout and some carry a mild theme unto themselves, but generally it's the kind of place that would make those who insist all parks and rides be heavily themed very uncomfortable.
I'm not sure what your comment about Eurofighter (or any brand name coaster) would have to do with it, but it's definitely something that park could use. The flume ride is set rather awkwardly in the middle of the park. There are a few trees, and as I recall the track is set rather high giving those that traverse the path surrounding it not much to look at but steel supports. This coaster will be a perfect fit and add a lot more interest to that area of the park. It won't matter to anyone there if it has it's own little non-theme or monster identity.
I agree with Mr Gator, though, in his assessment of Dragon. That ride was possibly one of the strangest, most painful experiences I've ever had. Without a flume the visitors to Adventureland will have only the water park and a raft ride for wet fun.
