I mean rides like Xcelerator hits that over-bank turn at a at least 120 degree angle.

And Goliath at SFHolland has that heavily banked hill called a Stengel Dive.

Why do peole think that OTSR are very uncomfortable? They do not bother me. Maybe beacuse I am so skiny that i don't feal squished in them.

What do you mean? As in the themeing or the 3 car trains with OTSR's?
i meant the 3 car OSTR the theming of that train was like a dragster...
im thinking like screamscape said a old runaway train theme
Question is... how many trains? I predict only 3... just because of the loading/breaking area, and stacking might occur if there are more. However... if they load up 2 trains at a time, they could do 4 trains at a 3 or 4-car capacity.
Hey, did anyone notice we're at page........ 69 ;)?
what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.
Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.
I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

When going through a compound inversion, you have many forces working on you not just in a Y directional vector, but both horizontally and longitudinally. Intamin t-bars are simply just not designed to handle those kinda inversions and forces, and I would bet my life that CP wouldn't be willing to risk anything of that sort considering how *great* the history for those pneumatic t-bars are.

Also, I'm going to say no less than 4 trains. One waiting to launch, one loading, one unloading, and one running the course.

That would explain all the talk about inversions. ;)

...ya never know...
...does anyone remember how large the Dragster one was before it was officially announced.
[EDIT]
...does anyone also have the Cedar Point link to where they were teasing the public with some high-quality digital photos of a section of their new coaster? *** Edited 9/5/2006 12:38:09 PM UTC by DawgByte II***
