Project 2022: Pantheon

[warfelg]

How so? Because BGT is possibly getting a RMC that means BGW is too? And not only that a new style that hasn’t been built yet and they say in theory can go over 300 feet?

 

[Icer]

I mean the Busch sisters like to put major attractions like that in at similar times by if not the same manufacturer than a similarly operating one. It's possible. Not likely, but possible.

 

[madmax]

Considering that they are sister parks it makes sense. Not counting on it but it’s a possibility. And you know Schilke loves terrains.

 

[GrandpaD]

Well, if they get an RMC giga, something like this would be cool.

All of a sudden that T-Rex giga doesn’t seem so far fetched anymore.

No it definitely still does.

We will be able to determine what Madrid will be better when we see what deer show up at the Gwazi site.

 

[madmax]

No it definitely still does.

Schilke literally said that the T-Rex can go up to 300+ feet

Okay I get that but again as I said before there are currently zero RMC T-Rexs in existence. I highly doubt a company like SeaWorld who is struggling financially is going to fork out the money for an RMC giga terrain T-Rex when there are currently zero T-Rexs in operation anywhere. Most of the time a corporation like that has a finance department that will tell them "no" that makes no practical sense at this time to invest $25 million+ in an extreme prototype attraction when they can just build something they know will work fine for cheaper. RMC Gwazi has no correlation with this project other than that it's at another SeaWorld property and it's opening in 2020.

SeaWorld struggling financially went out the window with BGW and BGT’s investments these next two years lol. This project could be $25-30 million regardless of the manufacturer.

Also SeaWorld often gets discounts with manufacturers with prototypes and packages so I don’t know where you’re getting all of this from.

Adam House says he would love to see a coaster reach the moon on the Cedar Fair Fun TV's so it must be happening!

RMC has not made a T-Rex yet. I've yet to hear a T-Rex coming to a park next year. I have a hard time believing RMC's first ever T-Rex will be standing 300+ feet in the sky, and I have an even harder time believing BGW would allow any sort of high-thrill prototype attraction in its park ever again.

Perhaps explaining yourself in more than just a sentence or two on why you feel a 300+ foot prototype attraction is Busch Gardens 2020 project, but instead you come off ignorant whenever somebody questions one of your countless shortsighted predictions. It's hard to take anything you post serious.

The head designer of RMC said right from the horse’s mouth that it could go up to 300+ feet. Right from a primary source. This is the same guy who made the prototype of a 4D coaster a hyper.

Also did you not read what I said? I didn’t say it was happening but that the possibility increased.

 

[GrandpaD]

RMC stated that 2020 was their target for a T-Rex.

Stranger things have happened. I recall people saying there was zero chance of a Gwanzi redo because Invadr took so much of it.

-“Cedar Fair will NEVER build a giga taller than MF”
-“Cedar Fair will NEVER work with RMC”
-“Gwazi will NEVER get RMC’d”
-“Hurler will NEVER get RMC’d”
-“SeaWorld will is struggling and can’t afford a big coaster”

Okay madmax if it's a Giga Terrain RMC T-Rex I will eat my words.

To be fair, a broken clock is right twice a day. If everything is suggested, one will have to be right.

Here's the interview where 300 foot Trex comes from. Him saying it has the capacity to do 300+ feet is what would concern me as a park. Doing not only the first T-Rex but also going over 300 Ft at the same time. That's not exactly something you should want to do. Let them get 1 T-Rex out before you push the limits of what it can do.

FWIW TRex talk starts at the 5:00 mark.

 

[Gavin]

I would like to point out to everyone that 300ft T-Rex isn’t that outlandish compared to what BGW has done in the past.

 

[Icer]

Exactly what I was going to say, they like trying things

 

[GrandpaD]

@warfelg I saw that video on Reddit. People commented about the "capacity" remark. "Beregond23" responded that was that it was "ambiguous term". The reddit post went on to say- "He talked about span length, which is the engineering term for distance between supports. So he's talking about the heights that it's feasible to build supports for. You'll notice that Leviathan and Fury have a special, extra-thick track for the lift hill to be done with less support towers, and it's epitomized with I305 and it's two supports for the entire first drop and lift."

I’m sure this would have capacity well into the 1200-1300 range tbh

Since we got info about this being considered an expansion to festa, I might as well pick back up with my conceptual visualizer thing.

Hopefully they choose a better name lol
