Yeah. Pretty sure it's a Kingda Ka clone. Has some weird car hood thing on it too. Glad to see a strata over seas for those that can't make it to the US.

Don't mind him. Just a little kid trolling

You may be happy to see a strata over seas, I'm ecstatic that it's at what is essentially my home park.

I also think it's a good idea. Ive seen so many people wish they could ride Kingda Ka and Top Thrill Dragster but cant because they live overseas. Now they will!

Would you like to make a thread to see who is interested or is too early?

Considering Ferrari land won't be done until 2016, I think it's a bit early.

As long it isn't set during the summer months, I'd probably show up.

I just read that The Formula will be a staggering 465 feet... Please tell me it's wrong.

I read it was 118 meters.
So I don't even know.
Where I read it was from a video simulation of the Ferrari land. Just search port aventura 2016 on YouTube.

According to the pre-installed calculator program, 118 meters is roughly 387.14 feet.

That simulation was fan made in NL2. They even said the 118 number was just randomly decided by the guy that made it.

I highly doubt it's taller than Kingda Ka. If it was, it would take the crown as the tallest in the world, yet they didn't advertise it as the tallest in the world. They said it was the tallest in Europe! So basically it has a height between 252 feet and 456 feet! Anyway, if anyone is willing to pay for my flight to Barcelona I would be happy to meet up :P

I think it'll be closer to TTD in height but with the airtime hill of KK.

I don't really see how Intamin can make a comeback with this strata if they never really disappeared in the first place. Maybe they don't make as many rides a year as they used to, but Skyrush is only on its 3rd season, thats not too long ago, and they just built that 10 inversion coaster in China. I'm personally kind of glad they're going with quality over quantity.
What are these for?

I just thought they were gone relative to B&M's unrivaled success in the last 3 years. Also, Intamin hasn't built a coaster in the U.S since Skyrush. It's nice to see Intamin go big again.
