New Ride(s) for 2014

[CoasterZ]

someone else said it but if i didnt know better it appears the last half of the ride is backwards with a launch system. I know prints are not showing what is underneath but wow... looks interesting! This may be 4000ft plus on the length. Its going all the way back to wilderness theatre

If there will be inversions, it doesn't look like much room for airtime hills according to the chart.

Is that the immelmann or dive bottom right?

[Sporlo]

Also note that Hank said polyurethane wheels.

[GoBears]

Is the lift the part with the black rectangle under it or is that the brakes?

EDIT: I'm trying to view the layout on my phone so it's hard to see.

bye bye el toro speed record

I assume the brakes.

Regarding the resident complaints, it sounds like igNight is a lot worse than a roller coaster for them.
Hank also claimed that IW's drop was to the north, but that involved a turnaround at the top, whereas this coaster does not.

Block brakes from what it looks like

This thing is also going to run out of speed much more quickly.

I think the polyurethane wheels combined with the possibility of a dive loop/Immelmann loop pretty much discounts this from being RMC.

The wooden coaster looks smaller than Viper.

Definatly looks promising! Jonrev, about what time should the meeting be up on YouTube?

[coasterkidd100]

So they are keeping the Wilderness Theater?

[GoBears]

It looks like part of the ride goes over the far right seating areas of the Wildness Theater. Are they removing part of it?

[FParker185]

space wise it looks to take up about the same area as viper, maybe just a little longer. I'd guess they'll level the theater, the structure for the ride is way fatter than the line.

[Sporlo]

Sounds like the entire discussion before the vote was spent trying to convince 1 guy.

I imagine they traced the ride layout onto an existing site drawing, I would be surprised if WT is around next year.

[JimPanky]

Looks like Wilderness Theater is probably out.

Plus, it would be hard to stage a show there with that coaster flying by over it.

Yeah 1 guy that wants a coaster doing speeds in the 70s tunneling 40 feet into the ground.

[UWW-10]

The back portion of Picnic Grove is probably going to be modified in some fashion too.

[RobSFGAm]

Based on the height chart SFGAm provided, it looks like (estimates based on the picture I took of their provided chart).

Station elevation 20 feet (old Iron Wolf station)
First drop 165 + 13 [+/-] (underground) = 178'
Second drop 120 feet
Third drop 59 feet
Fourth drop 100 feet - strange this is higher then the prior hill by 40 feet and this is where the strange track is on the layout.
Fifth drop 80 feet
6th (double drop) is about 63
Final and 7th drop is about 55

The 13' underground is how they will get the additional speed needed for a world record.

Cannot tell how tight/banked the 2 turns above Wilderness Theater are going to be.

What is McClure?

[RobSFGAm]

Looks like Wilderness Theater is probably out.

From what the park PR person said it is staying. It only goes over 6 rows of seat and only at the far East side of the theater. Plus it will be pretty high up.
