Cedar Point 2018 - Steel Vengeance RMC Mean Streak

[Paradox]

Looks like its going to dive under the lift, base on those ledgers to the right of the hill.

Where is the part where you breathe?

[Blase Rhine]

is that.... no it can't be... a double zero g roll?


or a zero g roll that straightens at the top into a drop... god I sure hope its the other. It looks great!

A turn around that is a double up into a double roll into a double down. Where do you breathe?

On an RMC? You really don't get a chance to lol

Perhaps no relaxing airtime hill on a "2018" Mean Streak!

Looks like we have an upwards zero g roll into a wave turn that dives under the lift.

That explains why they haven't done any more on the lift yet. Also, Oh my god!

lol it's going to lose speed much faster than I anticipated. Goliath 2.0

Have you never ridden a steel coaster before? lol

I wonder if that is one of those last minute changes RMC does because it doesn't make sense to build up the lift, just to take back down pieces.

It's speculation based on the height of that element compared to the projected height of the lift. Seeing as that roll is roughly the 3rd element it's going to be nearly 50-60% of the height of the lift already.

I've noticed that on multiple rides the variation in height between elements gets smaller (not by a ton, but enough to be noticed) as it gets slower. I think it could still have quite a lot of stuff going on.

Might wanna fix the name of the topic

I'd assume its also going to fly through that section... don't think the speed lose will be that massive

[Turbo]

define "fly" lol. Even Wildfire crawled during that element that they reached at a similar height comparison.

There are a lot of new pictures on Screamscape.

Wow

If you look at the rise up to the first inversion.....................there's spots on the ledgers for more track..... Possibly dueling? Or after the wave turn you'll turn and go out the same way you went in, and head to the MCBR (if that makes sense).

If you are talking about the flat part of the double up I see it. It really looks like there maybe another pass there. Good eye.

Those are gorgeous photographs. Where is the source? I hope they are able to do this often throughout this transformation.

Definitely the second option. Seems like it'll follow the same layout as the original up to the midcourse

I hope they have an MCBR. Probably won't though.
