News Six Flags Great Adventure Project 2027 (?): Delayed “Record Breaking Coaster"

[Bring Back Questor 87]

I know this is premature, but...

No matter what this Mack does, even pushed to engineered limits, it won't be as fast, nor as high as KA. The GP? Likely won't care. Us? I'm already "whelmed" - and likely not overly so as time goes on, unless there is some major surprise on the horizon. The limits of this concept are very apparent, so that's that.

I liken this ride to Pantheon at BGW. It was a decision, Not the best, not the worst for the park, but it made you look nonetheless. Maybe that's what SF parks have as their baseline ethos nowadays.

Clearly we’re all slightly under impressed and not too excited for this ride. However I think what we’re all excited for is what this ride begins.

It clearly marks the new direction of SFGAdv. With this installation we can look forward to bigger and better as time passes. This is jsut the start.

At least I’d imagine that’s the case. There’s absolutely no way they’ve looked at SFGAdv and stripped away what they did without the plans to add some seriously impressive rides over the next 5 years.

With that said. I’ve been wrong before. So who knows

The question with the speed and height:
Aren’t extreme spinner trains like absurdly heavy? That’s going to take A LOT of power and force to get them over 110mph and 350’ if so.

I'm wondering given all the hints they've let out if we shouldn't assume that we should assume it will be like all other mack spinner rides. If they're supposedly going for something they've never done before in speed and height and length, perhaps that includes redesigned cars or materials, etc. Maybe the height will be limited due to weight and speeds needed. Maybe they've customized this one so it's a lighter train and the ride design makes extreme heights possible. So many questions with this ride they've left us in limbo on until the spring unveiling.
