Tatzmania Löffingen | Gold Rusher | Gerstlauer Bobsled (Green Hornet Clone)

[CrashCoaster]

RCDB has stated a Gerstlauer Bobsled coaster is opening at Tatzmania Löffingen (home to currently just a 2018 SBF 3-Loop spinner in terms of coasters) later this year, which is confirmed because photos of the coaster pieces have been uploaded to the site:-

Gerstlauer Bobsled coasters look like great family coasters, so this should be a nice addition to this almost unheard-of park. I believe this ride will be on a similar scale to Les Speed Rockets but nevertheless, if you are travelling near Europa Park/Erlebnispark Tripsdrill/Schwaben Park, I think it will be worth stopping for!

Does anyone have any idea when this may open? I’m in the area in June and would be nice to tick this off too!

Their website says 2 new rides open Whitsun weekend, which is the 9th June, so you might be lucky!

No, the announcement to the two rides is on June 9th.

No, the announcement to the two rides is on June 9th.

RCDB says there'll be an announcement on June 9th but Tatzmania's site says they're opening two new rides for the Whitsun holiday. Maybe they're going for a whole new area to go with the coaster.

Looking at the pictures on RCDB I could see it opening in June tbh

I love a Gerst Bob so I'll keep an eye on this, could be a fun add-on to any future Europa park trips.

I think given that construction is underway (based on RCDB photos), I'll move this one.

I quite like these little Gerstlauer Bobs too, so good news another one is opening really.

So said to be scheduled by rcdb.com, no announcement seems to have been made yesterday.

I love these things too and am passing by with CP6 in July so thought I'd take a swing at finding some pics
Seems its almost completed now

The fact that THAT flat ride got built in Germany is hilariously unfortunate.

The layout appears to be a clone of Green Hornet at Motiongate.

What a nice compact layout!
I just wanted to say that this could very well be cloned, as it has such a small footprint, and then I saw your comment below: this already is a clone.
I think it looks like a fun layout with nice twists and turns. Any riders of Green Hornet around?

Not one of the better ones, tbh. It’s OK. Hopefully this one isn’t as heavily trimmed. Certainly looks more aesthetically pleasing.

Popped into the park today and the ride as expected isn't open just yet but they are now testing.

Apparently the coaster is now open and is called "Gold Rusher":-
