It will be in the woods. Doesn't need any crazy compactness. I think it's okay.

That drop in the back seat would probably be amazing.....

Well, that looks pretty cool. Seems that SDC is all of a sudden at the top of my list for parks to visit anywhere, ever, just at least out of curiosity.

it doesn't have to be compact, its just lack luster, uninspired. kind of like "oh hey we'll put a few inversions to hype it up so screw the rest of the layout"
What are these for?

Really? I actually like the layout. The first part will probably be a good opening act, with the the INSANE drop and cool element, the second part will be about speed (those low-to-the-ground turns), while the final part will be about disorienting the riders (with the double barrel roll that'll probably make people say "Dafuq?")

Though if I do have any negative remarks about his ride, it'll probably about the ride's sudden ending. I wish RMC could have done more, like, say, a finale ala-El Toro with quick s-curves and some more moments of airtime. IMO that would have been a great finish to this ride.

I still don't think that layout is exactly accurate though, it says double up and double down but I see no double up or double down...


still looks insane though

The double-up and -down are there, there's just a turn in between them "double" part. At least, that's what it looks like to me. Sort of a stretch calling them that, but probably technically OK.

Though I do have to agree; the layout looks kinda short. I wish it was longer; maybe a nice helix in the middle of it? Eh, whatever. Looks like an awesome ride. The first drop is UGLY, though...[lol]

I'm probably late in the conversation here, but I think I'm correct in saying it'll be called a wooden hybrid coaster. This third category (steel, wood, hybrid) of roller coasters just seems to be becoming much more popular nowadays. It's not like this can even be compared fairly with a wooden coaster; it's like, my favorite steel coaster is ____, my favorite woodie is _____, and my favorite hybrid coaster is ____. Though I don't foresee the general public using that, we coaster enthusiasts certainly should.

If I'm wrong in saying it'll be hybrid, then, well, my post will be rendered moot.

^^ Still looks poopty.

I gotta hand it to RMC, wasn't sure if the double barrel roll would make it to SDC's coaster or if they would hold off til Silverwood's, but wow, i'm glad that they decided to throw it onto Outlaw too. The layout might not look like much in the render, but add trees, foliage and terrain to it and it looks like they have a real bang up ride.

Whenever I see these RMC coasters, I can't help but think of this... http://www.coastercrazy.com/track_exchange/detail/15201

Hansixx foresaw perfectly-engineered overbanked-turning wood coasters 6 years before they happened. (This coaster is originally from like 2004 or 2005 on Coastersims.)

^^The wood isn't lined up near the left corner... and that's one hell of a headchopper.
