    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    Hmmm pretty sure it was way less this past week since it opened, def way less than a minute per dispatch, but if they are operating with 2 trains they usually take longer to dispatch given that they have been having extended delays with 3 trains. Idk might be getting used to new stuff will see...

    I agree with you in most. However, I don’t know if you mention operations in the park in general or in BGCE, given that BGCE has one of the best operations in the park so far, and pretty impressive. Ofc the ride has a lot of downtime but it’s a new intamin ride so to be expected until the park...

    this ride was AWESOME. It´s a blast and the hang time in the stall is AMAZING... I found it pretty innovative and fun after trying many stalls with the same sensation. I totally think it was a great decision to make it this way... it really feels like the ride wants you to fall hahaha. You will...

    “Infinitely worse” is defenitely an exaggerated understatement in my opinion. Toutatis is sure gonna be a more intense experience and most likely better for enthusiasts. But many people here is forgetting how BGCE is not only about intensity (which it still has points where it’s very intense)...

    Well... that was the park´s choice so unless somebody that worked on choosing what to build there explain to us what were the decision-making factors to build it that way, we won't know for sure. But all I can say is that I believe, like every other major money investment, that it was sure...

    the outward banked dive loop and the pop of ejector after also look very promising. The stall, while maybe not the same as others, will be interesting to try with those restraints and the hang time. And I have seen tests where the ride goes over the top hat way faster than that... I hope we ever...

    Compared to the first test it does for me, especially in the wave turn just before launch 3 and in the Outward Banked Dive Loop. Also, I think it takes the top hat with higher speed, but keep in mind that it doesn't matter because the trim brakes are the same so it's always going to slow down to...

    Minutes 3:38, 4:05, 4:22, 4:50, 5:22, 7:34. Looks like it's starting to speed up a little bit, let´s hope with hot tires and more testing it gets to a good balance of speed and airtime.

    I maybe wouldn’t go that far at least until I try it, but I can see why some can say that hahaha. It all comes to how much the experience changes for you with onboard audio, story wise and shorter trains rather than full theming or longer ride experience. Also the IPs play an important bias.

    Agreed... "doesn´t look great" feels like a significant understatement of this coaster, but each has its own opinions and likings.

    Y’all wait!!! It’s literally the first test XDD and they did various rollbacks so they were trying to get the slowest speed I believe. So might Be faster than that, will see. It still looks sick and will have views of the whole park from up there.

    Should be open by May. It will open in spring confirmed by the park, If there are no delays that is. But I don’t think so because Uncharted Portaventura is opening on June and they won’t want to overlap the openings.

    Wait my bad, I know that but I thought there were 2 🤣🤣 for some reason didn’t realize the front or middle car. Yeah it looks sick.

    https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3F_IwjxzM/ Holy cow, if that´s not speed up, this launch looks wild. Ofc there is one car missing and the train is empty which might make it slightly slower but it still looks like a short but strong one.
