Lot of people have tried to think of a layout from what is seen in the building area. Lots of people can with first drop, loop, zero g roll, dive loop. Cork, cork and then it actually variates... So i'm sure the starting would be good!

Can't wait till more track arrives [:)]

The reason it's taking so long is because of all the theming. Look at Expidition Everest. They have been working on that one over a year, While the patriot is propably gonna be up in a few weeks. It's all about how much theming they are building.

And the ground work on this ride too. Its alot of work, they have to get all the ground work done, do bits of themeing that are in tricky places, and do trackwork.

I can see the pics and im not a member! [:D]



Oooooo just so nemesis! [:D]

way to go, you can't link pictures from onride.de
you need to save them on HD and then upload on imageshack or whatevah...

Construction of track seems to be picking up in pace. This coaster looks like it should be amazing! I really hope it lives up to everyones expectations.

Dirk, i'd recommend better *not* to do so. This might result in a copyright violation, which nowadays tends to feed a lot of lawyers, but could otherwise feel quite unpleasant.

Why not place a clean and legal link? Simply like this: [8D]

There isnt a confirmed one on the net i dont think. There are sketched and things of what people think the layout is.

Anyone else apart from me thinking this B&M is going to be a little more forceful than the newer ones? I just have this feeling. They cant make a coaster like this without it being forceful surely, with all the ground work and trenches it has to be quite small. Or am i just hopeing to see something like the older B&Ms?

I certainly wouldn't mind more forceful coasters like Raptor and Montu, and Nemisis, being the only example of what this might turn out is, is extremely foreful in the helix after the corkscrew. Black Mamba looks even more compact than Nemisis, so the Gs might be even higher. [8D]

Probably not. B&M doesn't design their coasters the same way they used to.

The only way this will have higher gs than Nemesis is if the park asks for it. Still will most likely be a great ride either way.

b&m had in the final helix a 5g helix, but they actually wanted to get rid of that high g helix but phantasialand said that helix had to stay. But this is probably another nemesis/katun combo ride [pshades]

edit:
another one at Themepark.nl has posted more pictures:

5g? I doubt it. The strain on the structure would be intense. A full B&M inverted train is no the lightest of trains, so putting 5x that weight on the structure i imagine will start to cause large problems after and year or twos operation
