B&M launch coasters

Yeah, I know, but that doesn't help me...stuck up here in Indiana, I'm not going to be going to IOA in a long while, if ever.

Titan Fan,

 I was told this story directly from Bob Mappe of B&M.

From what I understand, the coaster was installed without the Launch Mechanism, and just regular track, because B&M wasnt thrilled with the launching design, Universal hired In-House to install the Pinch-Wheels. That's what I've been going by, If I'm wrong, it would probably figure...

So, how would the ride be propelled through the zero-g roll?...or does this supposedly go along with the ride originally having a camelback?

In the interview, it explains how The Hulk is about releasing anger and emotions (i/e launched lift) while Dueling Dragons is like two dragons flying around each other in near misses (i/e the silent ride because of filled in box spine).

Sept. 11th 2001, Slayer released God Hates Us All. The song "Disciple" uncannily describes the events of that day, as well as the antrax letters that followed.

I doubt that B&M Launch coasters will be made in the future. It would be a great addition to any amusement park. I wish that SFMW would get one of these babies.
