I'd say the chances of a new coaster built by B&M are and always will be pretty good......but dive machines are worthless without some pretty good theming (which probably wouldn't happen).

Please don't double post, edit your last post.

As for another B&M, I think that seems like a reliable company that would be good for Sfgam, as it has been for awhile.

If B&M are really good at building steel coasters ... i wonder how well they would do if they started on making wooden coasters along with their steel!!!????

B&M dosent need to make record breakers. We need to break records for having B&M's. :wink: Anyways, I REALLY want another B&M. So reliable, so smooth, so SFGAm.. SFGAm cant live without B&M's, neither can I. :lol:

Question:
"What are the chances of sfgam getting a new B&M floorless?"

Answer:
" Right now, about the same chances that this topic lasts a day."

If we were to get a B&M floorless, it wouldn't be until 2006 at the very earliest. The chances are slightly good though. Next year, Six flags is going to put most of its money into parks that didn;t get anything major this year. I.e. SFMM, SFGadv, and SFA. Others will get new things too. I wouldn't expect SFOG, SFGAm, or SFEG to get any new coasters next year.

Yep, it says Dinn Corporation. Does anyone have a translated to english B&M website? Also, we have some popular B&Ms, so I would expect them to continue adding more of them.

That diving machince looks awesome. I don't know why someone people want a floorless coaster. I never been on it, so please tell what is so great about having your feet just above the track.

The type of coasters I like especially are this diving machine, a mine train, a Premier LIM shuttle, or a wooden coaster with good stomach-aching drops. (Yes, I know the last three are not B&Ms.)

All A dive machine is, is, a steep drop, a turn, and the brakes. Big Whoop! A floorless is awesome. Ive head many great reviews from Kraken, and not from the front row. I would prefer a floorless over a dive machine.

The Floorless is pretty much just a gimmick, but a floorless B & M model would give SFGAm one HUGE thing it needs, INVERSIONS. Right now Batman has 5, and that's it.

As stated above B&M made the stock, also Psyclone is one of the worst most hated coasters in existance. Probably not the best investment...
