New coaster for SFGADV in 2005

Gonch, having taken the "capital N, small y, big f**king Q" last night to fight this horrible cold I have, I'm going to have to request that you never ever EVER compare Nitro to NyQuil again -- despite the fact that they DO both do what they're supposed to! ;)

--Dave (who has become a BIG advocate of the nighttime, sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever, so you can get knocked the f**k out for ten hours medicine..."NyQuil, NyQuil, NyQuil, we love you, you giant f**king Q!")

To take this further off topic, I like all 3 Morgan hypers. Mamba is the best overall and usually gives a good outrun and return trip and is best in the first car. Wild Thing gives a good outrun and is best in 1.3. Steel Force only gives a good return trip and only in 1.1. But it is pretty damn good.

On topic, I agree that Intamin Rocket is most likely at this point, considering the length of the track.

edit: I guess there are 4 Morgan hypers, but I have not been on Phantom's Revenge. *** Edited 6/9/2004 5:06:05 AM UTC by RavenTTD***

The back is all about the first drop. Oddly enough the front tends to be better for the return run.

When I'm sick I travel to Jersey to ride the nighttime sniffling, sneezing, coughing, aching, stuffy head, fever, so you can rest coaster

I think Steel Force is a pretty decent ride in the back seat. Then again, I like Nitro too.

Gotta keep on makin' the Nitro comments, huh? ;)

How about a shuttle Intamin Rocket with a layout like Superman: the Escape that is 425 feet tall? ;)

Its ok... since would be the worlds tallest coaster and located at a Six Flags park, it wouldn't count as a coaster anyway. ;) *** Edited 6/9/2004 5:11:50 AM UTC by CoasterFanMatt***

Nitro Dave, that Denis Leary bit is one of his best. Thanks for putting it back in my head :)

Rob - yeah, I just can't let it go. It's my personal albatross. :)

I like Steel Force too. I think it had to do with being so close to Dorney for a few seasons that I rode it a lot. Like really, really a lot. Sentimental favorite or forced love? Not sure, but I certainly understand why it underwhelms people.

Nitro on the other hand... ;)

I'd still rather ride Steel Forceless than Nyquil.

Glad to see I'm not the only who found Nitro underwhelming. After two rides [one front, one back] I was ready to move on to something that actually had negative and positive Gs. YAWN.

And now back to the discussion at hand.

mOOSH

I thought that WAS the discussion at hand? ;)

On ScreamScape they're mentioned rumors regarding the fact that the coaster will go for the height record. But given TTD's length does this seem remotely possible??

they're = they've

Oy!

I guess cruising at 80+ miles an hour in a chair is no longer pleasing...

As reliable as that site is that idea probably came from this thread :) *** Edited 6/9/2004 5:16:21 PM UTC by DragonRider***

How about an Intamin Aqua trax? I don't know anyone who has ridden the prototype in Korea, but dude it sure looks cool! : ) It's the right length and it sure is UNIQUE...not necessarily record breaking, but unique nonetheless. I think it would bring in the crowds...the only thing that makes me doubt is how much theming would SF put into it? Part of it's appeal is FANTASTIC theming...plus the water element would be great on those HOT HOT Jersey Summer days. Here's a link to RCDB's page on it:

What'dya think?

Jason : )

Yeah, it would be good in the summer....but a lot of Gadvs best days are in the spring and frightfest...i mean, it would be great, but the water rides open so late and close to early....

I dont think it would be a smart idea to have one in new jersey...maybe cali....but not new jersey *** Edited 6/9/2004 5:33:44 PM UTC by swim92688***

There's no chance that Six Flags would put that much effort into theming a ride. No chance whatsoever.

How about a Vekoma motorbike coaster? I could imagine those things being quite short.

Hey ever one wasn't there someting on the old S&S page about the cookie cutter X modles I seem to remember them being this small for some reason ....might just be the pain from that damn SFGadv TOGO.......Really just get rid of it.... hey and with all the elaborite themeing on that ...it's still crap.

On the thought about the motor bike coaster....the elaborate themeing would already be there lol. I don't see them putting another woodie in and next to they'er red-headded step child(well hand rail)...I'd like to see one of the eurostars.

No offense ment, but I couldn't understand your post due to all of the spelling & grammer errors.

If you were refering to the pix on Arrow's old site for possible 4D layouts(I have those saved on my old computer), they were small, but I don't know if they were that small. They were smaller in height, which is a bit shorter ride, but not by alot depending on how big they want to go.

As for how things go, I think they'll get the worlds first B&M floorless inverted with a verticle drop and one loop...

Pot, you're black! ;)

ment = meant
grammer = grammar
refering = referring
alot = a lot
worlds = world's
verticle = vertical

Rob: I'm quite sure SF is through with vekoma after all the crap they bought from them that...to this day still doesn't work right.

This is SFGRADV we're talking about here after all & next to SFMM they're the 2nd most spoiled park in the chain when it comes to new coasters so they wouldn't buy the junk from vekoma,SFI saves those lemons for their less favored properties.
