A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.

Here are some important resources:

  1. RCDB
  2. Thrill Data
  3. Coast2Coaster
  4. Terminology and Abbreviations

Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).

Some basic rules:

  1. Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.

  2. Back up facts with sources as much as possible

  3. No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.

  4. No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.

  5. Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.

  6. No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)

  7. No posting personal information.

  8. No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

With no raptors built last year, one ground up and one conversion, which coasters are you hoping for RMC to look at for next year? I don't have high hopes for RMC/Boss with Selim but, I can only hope. It's so rough even with the trackwork that gets done on it. I think it has the potential to be the best RMC conversion yet. Or do y'all think titan track would be a better route? I'm also hoping for a park to get a custom/terrain raptor but ehh.

Hurler is a coaster that I agree with you on.... Though I don't think it's rough - it's just..... Uninspired? At the same time I think the reason why it hasn't happened is because of the issues Cedar Fair had with RMC. The opening of SteVe and TwiT was a mess and even though they've got TwiT under control it's my understanding that SteVe still remains a struggle.
