Starry Night Ripper- B&M Flyer for World Joyland

I wasn't discussing the forces any more. I agree with you, they're likely to be very similar, however I'm interested in how this will feel. I was kinda moving on from the point about the forces being similar.UC said:
I guess we'll have to wait for Jake & Ben to tell us how it rides... *spite*

So thats why I notice the difference between an Intamin loop, B&M loop, Vekoma loop, Schwarzkopf loop and so on? Yeah, lets go with all manufacturers are the same. Great argument.

Ooooops theres UC, being a prick as usual.
Besides, what backbone of the conversation do I need to comment on how loops feel?
My gosh, I think that stick in your ass has turned into coal by now...
Here is some more concept art that reveals what the rest of the roller coaster looks like.
So the layout order looks like:
Overbanked turn
zero-g roll-fly to lie
loop
overbanked turn-lie to fly
turn
barrel roll (it looks like the turn leads to a barrel roll after the turn)
Air-like elements, including a close call with faux rockwork

To further fuel the loop argument...this loop:
Isn't the same as this loop:
Which isn't the same as this loop:
All three are obviously shaped different. That means that the forces aren't the same. You can obviously feel the difference between intense positive G's in a Schwarzkopf loop and the hangtime in a B&M loop and it has nothing to do with the trains. Due to the SHAPE of the loop, the trains, regardless of manufacturer are moving at different SPEEDS through the loop. The physics, specifically centripetal motion(it doesn't matter that the loop is elliptical and not a perfect circle, there is still acceleration toward the "center" of the object), tells us that the forces are different.
If you still think differently, I would like to see equations that prove otherwise.

I can't imagine a loop on a flyer being all that fun actually. I've never ridden a vekoma effort, but trying to imagine what the sensation would be like, I imagine it to be a bit unpleasant. I don't mean in terms roughness, I mean more in terms of the positions your body is put into.
But the rest of the layout looks very enjoyable, and hopefully the themeing will be to a similar level shown in the concept art...
