Intamin Release Plans for 12-Inversion Coaster

That's a great recreation, but its just so slow after the 2 corkscrew and it looked forceless. I really thought it would be better :?
 
^Yeah, if one of these ends up getting built, I doubt I'll bother riding it seeing as the computer game version looks a bit slow at the end.
 
This actually looks pretty good with a decent length, Rather Compact and plenty of inversions. Altough it looks slow at the end on the video, That would increase the intensity of the coaster so in my opinion, make it better.

I thought EXACTLY the same.
 
Cheers for putting the vid/links up.... Awesome recreation :)

To be honest, the plans had me imagining it a hell of a lot better than what it has turned out to be on NL... Guess it's just going to be another inversion record breaker :D
 
Why don't they make this in Drayton Manor. Knock down G-force. They could even use the same car as G-force.
(i know this wont happen, but still...)

No they couldn't. Different manufacturer.
 
Never say never, if Intamin REALLY wanted to design a track for the X-car trains, they COULD. But they won't, at least not to anyones knowledge ;)
 
That is actually quite a silly statement, its like saying if B&M REALLY wanted to design a train for one of Intamins monorails, the COULD.

Its kind of obvious that a roller coaster manufacturer would be able to design a train that is capable of running on a different track gauge, although I doubt that Maurer would one day come out and say 'You know what guys, lets give up making track, lets just make the trains instead'

Manufacturers designing trains to run on existing rides is different, because that generally improves the lifespan of the coaster, makes it more efficient and less maintenance.

Why Intamin would ever design a coaster and then give Maurer a call and say 'Do you mind if we borrow a few X-car trains, we can't be bothered to design one for our own track.'

Intamin would be perfectly capable of designing a train to run on their own version of an XCar ride type if they wanted to.

On another note, I cannot see Drayton thinking 'Lets get a new Intamin for 2010, but since its so expensive, lets knock down G-Force and keep the trains.'

We could sit around making stupid predictions about the future designs of some of the most reputable ride manufacturers out there, but since we know that anything is REALLY possible, it doesn't mean that it would ever happen.

B&M COULD design a coaster track for Intamins Zac Spin cars if they REALLY wanted to.

S&S COULD design a track for a Mack Wild Mouse car...
They just wouldn't.

Gerstlauer COULD create a track to run a Maurer Spinning car...

I could go on and on for the rest of they day if I REALLY wanted to, but I won't.

I can't see where a manufacturer would ever want to design a steel coaster track to utalise the trains off another company when they still make their own rides to run the trains.

:D
 
I can't not agree, as it is stating the bloody obvious, nowhere in my post did I mention that you were wrong (which is a first, I'll admit) all I did say was that it was very unlikely that a manufacturer would want to design a track to run anothers trains, they COULD do it as its not very difficult to make a track with a smaller rail diameter and track gauge, but they just wouldn't.

Learn to read dear ;)
