Hmmm.....^ For awhile today I thought that this would be this:
Maurer Söhne - forces in motion - Maurer Rides: X-Train

Guess not. Oh well. It looks really cool though.

[Old_Hag]

Woah, on the facebook page it says the lift hill will be 50 degrees.

Also, on the facts sheet, it says the ride time will be 63 seconds. It looks like they aren't gonna lie about ride time like KD (*cough*305lasting3minutes?*cough*)

Take a look at the POV video Official Website for Hersheypark

^That was such a crappy nolimits coaster. It looks like they had 4 year old make it and then put awesome custum cars on it. But I can atleast get an idea of what it will be like and it looks awesome.

I got 10th! Attraction 2012 - Submit your guess about Hersheypark's Attraction 2012

Only if it really did chose the test riders...

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

^Good job! I didn't do as well, I got 23rd out of 76.

[RNB]

I'm not too excited about it. They said that it will have 5 floater 0-G airtime hills... Also, I think the layout is horrible. Just some stupid turns with small hills.

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

^I have to agree with you there, the layout looks sub-par. It should still be fun to ride anyways.

[lazor 22]

I got 67th lol

[rollercoasterfanatic919]

^With your answer, I'm suprised it's that high.

[RideOnKI]

I'm gonna bet that those turns are going to pull some G's, and it has some good airtime too! Looks fun!

o_O I want to go to hersheypark soooooooo bad.

That's what everybody said about I305...

Don't underestimate turns and hills, especially on an Intamin. I underestimated the turns on Dominator and they're one of the most intense portions of the ride. Now on an Intamin, just look at Maverick.

That's what everybody said about I305...

Exactly.

This park's getting another coaster? Damn man. Need to get out there.

[lazor 22]

I wonder if we will get to see some real animations not just the cheesy NL coaster?

[LaMbChOpZ]

Kind of bumping, but this is good news!

Hersheypark Skyrush Update #43 (9/26/11) Keystone Thrills


A lot of the track and some minor supports arrived! Not to mention the pulleys for the lift hill.

[2015ASM]

Looks Great, I'm glad another Intamin is coming to Hershey, I'll get to ride it during it's opening season which was not the case for Fahrenheit.

I don't really like the look of the Winged Outer-seats, how they're staggered. I hope that they're in rows of four, not like how they are in the NL video. Anyone Agree???

[Old_Hag]

I just hope it has lap bars and not OTSRs.

Also, contrary to what just about everybody believed, 305 DOES have a 50 degree lift.
