Here's a link I found that displays images of the proposed layout.

Top Speed: Roughly 105 mph.

INTENSE!

Wow.  I need to get there.  And I think CPgenius was talking more in terms of a good ride than height Nasai:)

Sit back, hold on tight, because Mamba is about to strike! Enjoy Your Ride!

:O

I thought you all knew about this ride by now.. :-P

i dont get it, they could just make it 5ft higher and break S:TE record, isnt S:TE 412ft tall also??

I want to see Arrow get off their butts and build something big. Maybe not a terra, but a Giga if they can fix the roughness.

Yeah, I was talking about the pure power of the ride...not that the addition of this monster will take anything away from MF. I think that it may be detrone on Amusement Today's Golden Ticket Awards' "Best Steel Coaster"

The layout I was talking about is posted above. I said this way back after Heide Park installed Colossus...they definitely are trying to make themselves known throughout the amusement world.

[Edit]...I will bet money that the lift will be an elevator lift, possibly faster than MF, and there will be an "escape vehicle" for the "walk down."

Hey maybe this just means that when Cedar Point comes around to build a record breaker that it will be even higher than that :) if possible of course!

Da......Da..Da............Da...DAMN!

The first time since 100 that CP didn't break a 100 foot barrier... interresting...

...can you say 500 ft. TA2K for CP in a couple years...okay, maybe not. :)

Again, all this raises the question of how much force the human body withstand?  I wonder if a coaster above 500ft would be a 'controlled' drop?

My goodness!  That is extremely high.  I wonder how long the first drop will be?  5,6,7,8 seconds long? Wow!

Talking about some major innovations and new frontiers the rollercoaster industry has been going through in the past few years! Wooden Loopers, Lay-Down, Floorless, LIMs then Air Thrust (like 0-70 mph in 3.78 sec turns into 0-107 in 1.8 sec in like 3-4 years), Giga turns into ???? (400 feet) coaster in the same time period - what's next?

I knew it! No one I know believed me, but I always said in a few years we will be seing 400, 500 ft. coasters.

FINALLY! Someone is breaking the record by more than a few feet! :)

no not that question again!  If the pullout is long and proportional to the speeds, it can have the same , or even less g's than MF

That's just SICK! 

Wow, I just picture a drop on the other side of S:TE. That's sick.
