    At 1:20, it looks like the ride was originally designed to have a mid course brake run to allow 3 train operations, but it has only ever operated with 2 trains as Iron Wolf, Apocalypse, and Firebird, so the MCBR was never added. The final brake run looks to have two waiting blocks, which would allow 3 train operations with the MCBR, but given the short ride length and slow dispatches of stand up coasters, there would be no benefit to 3 train operations since the 3rd train would always stack.

    I was afraid of rollarcoasters but I was basically peer pressured into riding it by a few of my friends and I was crying right until the point of the first drop. Best experience ever. You can’t even feel the drops so if it’s the drop you worry about don’t sweat it. This was when corona was just starting so no one was in the park so me and my friends rode the ride 6-7 times without having to gets in line at all

    I am confused how they're motivated enough to change the trains on this coaster but not replace the PTC trains on Roar with Millennium Flyer trains, or the trains on Mind Eraser with the ones with the comfortable restraints like T3 at Kentucky Kingdom or Fly the Great Nor' Easter at Morey's Piers. And don't tell me they got rid of the airplane with the fire effect. What other theming from Apocalypse did they remove?

      @@rjsmc6179 it's because six flags is too cheap to give this park a brand new coaster that's why.
      Six flags should just sell this park to a chain that will actually invest in new attractions and not just hand me downs. I stopped getting season passes for this park after the 07 season when instead of getting a coaster they chose to put in yet another waterpark attraction for 08 and haven't returned there since.
      Now Kings dominion appears to be following that same trend so it looks like I'll be going to Busch gardens Williamsburg from now on instead.

    • @oneandonlysound99
      @oneandonlysound99 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Well far as the motivation a B&M coaster has more market value than a vekoma SLC or a wooden coaster going probably 95% or more unchanged with different trains. That and Roar is oddly comfortable, but they really should stop being cheap and just beat Millennium Flyer trains on Roar. What did they do with the ones they ran on the used to be roar now destroyed into the worst RMC joker anyway? I can't see much motivation to care about the SLC, the only one they did anything too was the one at Six Flags New England so far, and, they might do it in the near future here, but if this was a "pick one" thing, they went for the one that'll attract people far more.
      After all, a B&M floorless conversion may not solve everything, but standing up was pretty horrible pain wise.
      "Fixing" an SLC is still not exactly too great, and while I acknowledge I am expressing my own opinion, tbh I don't think any Vekoma SLC is re-ride-able no matter what kind of trains or "re-profiling" etc they do (also not hating on vekoma I actually like boomerangs and custom loopers they have done, etc.)

    • @mitchellries256
      @mitchellries256 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      OneAndOnlySound I like that explanation, but in the end we can both agree that the Millennium Flyer trains would be a better fit for Roar. And they should be motivated to changing the restraints on the Mind Eraser because a comfortable ride becomes a popular ride. After all, parks don't want to be known for having rough rides.

    I hope this catches on in the chain, the floorless conversion, or non-stand up in general. You can just see that the ride is at least 50% smoother even on an older B&M where the craft wasn't quite there for such smooth transitions (that wierd not actually a break straight section for instance). Aside from that, I'm glad Six Flags America now has a *good*(keyword: good not great like most but still fun and a solid ride). Also a piece of history, the first made without contracting out or half the team+intamin, etc. I think an RMC raptor either the basic model or a the third model RMC designed we may or may not have seen yet (there is one not seen, then one was shown in an advertisement video originally). They don't need to RMC Roar, it's awesome, but why it doesn't run MF GCI trains is dumb. This place has lots of potentional, I like that it isn't super packed and whatnot but it has deserved better for many years.

No reason to ruin Roar, GCI can retrack it with titan track in some places and it'll be just fine. A raptor or also work on mind eraser (new trains, reprofiling) is the best way to go towards reworking/renovation and a brand new coaster anyday.

    Anyone remember when 20 years ago six flags drew up a list of proposed attractions with the county zoning board that by 2003 they never followed through on adding? That happened because at the time six flags corporate was too fixated on adding large scale investments only to their new Jersey, California, Dallas and Chicago parks. Cedar fair does the same thing with their two Ohio parks, their Charlotte park and their Canadian park while ignoring the remaining parks in their respective chains.

      They still really improved the park and are consistently making solid investments into it. Love Six Flags!

      Three years later, Cedar Fair is adding Zambezi Zinger to Worlds of Fun and they're probably going to add a Dive coaster to Dorney Park. And Merlin is adding a Mack Hyper to Thorpe Park and a B&M launched shuttle family wing coaster to Chessington. (Somewhat disappointing; Thorpe Park needs a longer rollercoaster, and Chessington needs a higher-capacity rollercoaster. But still.)

    “Floorless Coaster”
    Superman, Batman, and Bizzaro.
    Why is this ride being marketed as something innovative? Does the riding station not have a floor when you’re about to get on? Because the concept of a floor-less coaster has already been done.

    • @ThemeParkOverLoadChannel
      @ThemeParkOverLoadChannel 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It is marketed as the first floorless coaster in Maryland which is 100% correct. Mind Eraser is considered an inverted model because the track is above you. On Firebird, there is no floor and the track is below your feet.
