Silverwood 2017/2018

[Paradox]

There's rumors going around of RMC Trex/Raptor track being on site at Silverwood in Idaho. A big plot of land has been cleared! Maybe we will see a new coaster soon.

Why not. Remember, RMC have tested their first Topper Track at Silverwood. Why wouldn't they test the T-Rex/Raptor Track concept at this park? Moreover, RMC workshops are only 11 miles from Silverwood.

It would make sense. I spoke with someone who sold Silverwood lighting a few months ago and they did mention a new coaster. I'll hopefully head out there this weekend or next to take pics and also because I haven't been there in a few years

This is good news! Silverwood could use a new major coaster and an RMC would be perfect. I would prefer the T-rex track there though, I don't know why but they already have two world class wooden coasters, but that's my opinion.

[Turbo]

It's a shared opinion especially for me haha, the park is 5 hours away from me and yet I still consider it my local park.

Wait, is RMC T-Rex track just solid steel?

[Turbo]

hollowed out but yeah, looks like a whale.

It's hollowed out, otherwise it would be insanely expensive. Eerily similar to Pax's triangle track

^ That can be one of Coaster Dynamix models, too! I hope so!

But it's RMC so it's a god like innovation.

Nah I agree with you. RMC is a good company overall but enthusiasts think they're the second coming of jesus

Okay, good to know. Thanks, CK!

They are the third coming of Jesus. Intamin was the 2nd.

RMC has it's fair share of detractors as well as fanboys

Trust me, you're not the only one who thinks agrees with that... And I've ridden a fair share of those rides.

Until the one at Cedar Point opens. Then suddenly RMC will be gold.

Don't worry, 100% gaurentee prople will hate it and say it's the worst coaster at cedar point. Happens every time.

The worst coaster at Cedar Point? Aw I can't think like that!

Not really, look at Valravn: Everyone was hyping during construction and now nobody notices it anymore.

I don't think so, Dirk. The GP really highlights the fact that Valravn goes ninety degrees down, and it suddenly becomes super scary to them because of how intimidating it is (Griffon has no lines because of this). This results in more riders.
Think of it this way: Kinda like what happened with TTD and Millennium Force. Since they both look intimidating, it's essentially a requirement among the GP to ride them.

[Paradox]

Griffon has no lines because BGW can actually operate a ride correctly. When I was at BGW it was extremely crowded yet none of the rides had a long wait except Verbolten and Tempesto.
