Maybe Zamperla threw in Wild Mouse for free as part of a TTD refurbishment bid.

Naw other way around. "Buy a Wild Mouse, Get a 400 ft. Coaster Refurb For Free" deal.

Sounds like the type of offer they'd put out, confident that no park that actually has a 400 ft. coaster would ever take them up on it.

Hype! Red Force 2 by Zamperla

 

[RcTmix]

I want to believe that “exciting new coaster” implies more significant changes than just an LSM launch.

But then I remember that they count Pipe Scream as a coaster, and take their hype with a grain of salt.

 

[cocoa]

make it taller, cowards

 

[JoshC.]

I know the 'make it taller' comments are sometimes in jest, but I wonder if they dismissed the idea of making it taller to get the 'world's tallest coaster' due to the Saudi Falcon's Fury claim of taking that record. To my knowledge, they haven't announced how tall that will actually be? Imagine going to all the effort of making an existing coaster even taller, with the sole purpose of getting the world record, only to (potentially) be pipped again a couple of years later.

That's of course assuming something like that is even possible from an engineering perspective.

They spent all that money and effort on MF and it held the record for less than 3 months so they already know that feeling I'm sure

 

[Hyde]

Aquatrax confirmed.

Alright double posting for this, spotted by some folks on Linkedin:



Proceed.

 

[Trax]

I guess they hint to Falcons Flight (or was it Fury?). Anyway, I highly doubt that TTD will be scaled to be the worlds fastest coaster.

 

[Hixee]

Just imagine the yeet though...

The airtime would truly be insane

Yeah 240 kph or whatever it was would probably pull your legs off. Your upper half would get some amazing ejector though.
