RE: Who will make the "Multi-Launch Coaster" for 2012
I feel kind of dumb for asking this, but what are "dark ride elements"?

Maybe this will help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_ride
Basically rides like Curse Of Darkastle and most of the rides in Disney World are Dark Rides.

If you PM me, I'll explain it to you. However It really isn't publishable video. Some of the answers weren't as direct as we would have liked, but that was unintentional.

More than likely its going to be an Intamin.
But the company I want to see make the coaster is Mack. Their Blue Fire coaster just looks so freaking sweet!

Well, I have been scrutinizing all the landmarks and geographical terrain markers. I am "guessing" here- the ride layout may resemble our beloved Wolf to some extent. I think the first outing from the station house (lovingly kept by BGW) will remain the same. The slow path out of the house and around to the "first element" the same.... then... indoor cave-building of some sort- speed -whoosh and the craziness begins. (this is where the "dark elements" begin.
That is my best guess by surrendering markers. (I was a geology minor and worked for construction for seven years- so we will see how far my knowledge goes when all is said and done.) I just wish I could crawl around the back part of the landscape to "snoop" a bit more. Who knows what I may "unearth".. ho ho (I do love puns).
Still; I think it will be all about speed and quick turns and banking... which all sounds familiar to..... you guessed it; the Wolf. Oh BGW- don't let me down!
Long live the BBW!!

Did anyone notice the article in the VA Gazette Saturday? It seems more permits have been filed revealing that part if not most of the coaster will be indoors.

RE: Who will make the "Multi-Launch Coaster" for 2012
I don't like the sound of that, this is supposed to be a roller coaster, not a dark ride. :dodgy:
And what do they mean by "vertical coaster"? :dodgy:

Don't take everything the Gazette says as certainty. They are reporters, not theme park enthusiasts. It's already been established that the coaster will have dark ride elements. The building also won't be 8 stories high. Part may be (themed tower?), but for the most part, I'd imagine that the coaster will go in and out of the building.

RE: Who will make the "Multi-Launch Coaster" for 2012
I don't think most of it will be indoors. The building will only be 26k sq. ft. For a size reference, Darkastle has a 40k sq ft building. I think as Chris stated it will travel in and out of the building. I'm also interested in the themed bridge...
