Hershey Park | Wildcat's Revenge | RMC Wildcat | 2023

[CrashCoaster]

All the other RMC truss lifts look so massive and imposing, Wildcat's just looks so... small.

That's cause it literally is the smallest one?

Yes, I know, that's the point. It just looks weird to see a truss lift so stubby and small.

I think when compared to the park's skyline it will look very imposing compared to other things. It might be smaller but the truss will make it stand out against the hypers. Compared to other RMCs like Zadra, yes it does look small. But it should still be a great addition to the park.

 

[Steely Dan]

At 140' in height, WR's truss lift is only 15' shorter than ArieForce's One's (155'), and 25' shorter than SFGAm Goliath's (165').

Yeah, it's a lot shorter than Zadra and Iron Gwazi (both at 206'), but it's not really that far outside the general range of those other ones.

If the pacing is good and intense the height doesn't matter much. From what I see it seems it will be a powerful ride like RMC knows how to make them. Hopefully it is open by the end of June when I'm there!

Hersheypark has been kind (?) enough to show off Wildcat's Revenge's trains on the track;

All 3️⃣ #WildcatsRevenge trains have arrived at Hersheypark! Take a look at the custom design (a first for Hersheypark!) and fully-dimensional black, charcoal and silver wildcats on the front car.

Oof. Still ugly.

Those trains just aren't doing it for me.

i feel you on that one.

They're doing something to me but it is not good. Would've been better if the entire zero car was a wildcat head kind of like the rattler on Iron Rattler or the alligator on Iron Gwazi. The cat breaking thru the wood just looks cringe.

Track has gone up the truss and most of the way down the first drop.

And here is a look at the entrance sign and station.

Wow, that looks better than I thought it would given the hill's size.

 

[Hutch]

I'm not ready for that airtime hill after the roll.

Some old GCI Wildcat track has gone up by the entrance as a tribute. Surprised more parks didn’t do this with their conversions.

Walibi Holland was the first doing this with Untamed

Hopefully they start testing soon!

Hopefully they start testing soon!

Agreed. I'm very curious to see how it will run on it's first few tests.

 

[dkspencer]

Testing has officially started. Video shows the first drop and underflip.

Wildcat's Revenge has officially left the station and completed its first test run! We can't wait for our all-new hybrid coaster to open. Stay tuned...
