B&M parts at SFOG! - CoasterBuzz

Yes, and how is repeating what you heard "Having the VIP info?" The only person whom I even dare to believe is Shaggy and Jeff...both know their stuff (and pretty dang well too!) How could I be jealous of you if I don't believe you? Also I want that information about a park 1000 miles whom which I will never visit so bad! FYI it's V²..not v2.

C'mon guys.. peace already. I don't want this thread closed cause I DO live near SFoG and ALL legitimate information is welcome to me.

I rode "X" and never went upside down.

A friend of mine says that the "non-circular" support parts are for the transfer areas on the ride. That seems logical, no?

The larger supports in the background totally look B&M. Superman: F______ F______ is coming to SFoG! :)

Guys, B&Ms are going to SFOG, SFNE, and La Rhonde. Someone posted a while back that their neighbor delivered track for B&M and those were all of his destinations. This story is legit too because pictures were posted. As for the flyer going to SFOG, a lot of people have put their reputations on the line in saying that one is coming for 2002 season.

Superman: F F huh? Hmmm, what could that be?
Freedom Flight?
Finally Free (In reference to his obviously failed attempts to "escape" from other park attractions)
Final Fantasy (hey if PKI Has Tomb Raider..)
Fortress Flyer?
Freaking Fabulous
F#$% Florida! (in reference to the Floridian B&Ms as well as the 2000 election)
Feeling Fine
okay, I'll just stop here :)

Homey G., thanks for adding whatever level of "adult-ery" could be added, LOL. BTW, sorry about injuring your best players, a win without injury was all I really wanted...

B&M track all the way. probably a hyper too, which is good 'cause the SE needs something tall. if the non-round supports aren't for transfer, my guess would be the station. a floorless doens't seem as good as a hyper for SFOG and a B&M flyer seems all wrong. 1. the larger parks haven't received a Flying Dutchman let alone a B&M flyer (except for SFWoA, but they've been getting the weirdest push that I've ever heard of). what makes you think that SFOG would get a B&M flyer before SFMM or SFGA? plus B&M hasn't made two prototype coasters in the same year to my knowledge (hypers were just a train variation and I'm not sure about floorless) so why would they start with something as complicated as a flying coaster? Vekoma had troubles with their flying coasters and they also had trouble opening the Deja Vu's which were all prototypes. if you ask me, B&M has the right idea with starting early and keeping the number of prototypes opening in the same year to a minimum.

The south needs a hyper, and North America needs a flyer, the way I see it, either way is good. I heard rumors of BGT getting a B&M hyper, if this is true, it could possibly influence SFOG's decision to get the flyer.

AT does NOT, I repeat, NOT have a world-wide exclusive on AIR. I have been saying that for months now. The SFOG coaster is a B&M Flyer...first in the US...you can take that to the bank.

Mamoosh, my brain recognizes the reality of a B&M flyer, but my heart still wants an Intamin hyper...Southeastern U.S. has enough with the B&Ms already! Not that a flyer won't be cool, but I'm sure it's basically the same as a Vekoma flyer (which ARE cool, BTW) only with some "tweaks" to make it a better ride....S:RoS, on the other hand, CANNOT be improved upon IMO...at least it sure wasn't improved by AC or Nitro! A copy of Phoenix and an S:RoS, and I'll never ask for another coaster in FL, ever again!!!

Rollergator: I'm with you, actually. I still see both the Vekoma *and* the B&M Flyer as "gimmicky." I was disappointed to see the pics of AIR under construction and see that section of track where riders are on their backs. What's the point?

IMHO after riding Supes at SFA and SFNE is just doesn't get much better.

Ggggguh! No joke. Thanks for being a gracious winner unlike your boy Grossman. But he IS the best QB I've seen this year. Too bad you guys don't schedule Miami, you'd toss them around. Just stick it to the Noles for me, will ya? I'll see what we can do with those nasty ol' Tigers. But seeing how this is a coaster board, better say something.. I think we need a custom hyper.. and um.. RHTS.

PLEASE if you are gonna speculate about SFOG make sure you actually know that Georgia Scorcher is also at this park. In no way would they get a Floorless/Sit-Down or an inverted.

This is a Speed Coaster or an Aerial Inversion Ride. The later looks Far more likely.

Spoken by a sould who obviously hasnt seen David Carr from Fresno State. Taking nothing away from Rex, but Spurrier is an offensive genius! He got Shane Matthews into the league and even made a Heisman winner out of Danny Wuerfull (sp). Rex is a beneficiary of a great system.

Oh and SFoG's coaster will rock regardless! (LAME attempt to say something coaster related :))

It's an impulse, look at the pics:

Shut up the both ya!

LNM Fanatic: you 100% sure about that Impluse?

Too Much Ground Clearing for a Impulse...if you look at the construction site, they are digging a giant trench...

Moosh, can't you see, he showed two pics that don't look alike...it's obviously the Impulse! What the hell were we thinking this whole time?

"Words are like...funny...you know?"

I have said this once before...

It's a B+M. I don't know what kind, but it's a B+M. How do I know this?

When the re-bar for the footing started arriving in parcels at the park, each "package" had a tag on it that gave its location information... where it was to be used. BUT also on the tag was a blank that said "description." And in that blank, in big letters, on ALL the parcels of re-bar, it said:

"Six Flags - B & M Coaster"

Jeremy, are you taking on role of vice president of the CCC (Chicken Chute Clique) or is KoasterKing gonna serve. We can talk football while waiting for the rest of those yokels (great word) to get off TR:TR. David Carr is a great QB, and will make a great NFL QB, but Rexxie is the stuff in college. Besides, Carr couldn't beat a Boise St. team my Cocks handled.. who in turn got pummelled by ol gatorwoodie's Gators. >:o(

I still say hyper. It's what we neeeed.
