Rita...Queen of Speed

This may have been mentioned already but my 2 cents is that CP will be debuting a coaster similar to Rita Queen of Speed...look at the "sidewindin"

I really hope they don't put in another coaster that lasts only 25 seconds.

Well look at it this way.

Someone has posted this idea before, but they already caught most of the flack. ;)

I think it will be more like speed monster than rita

Thanks for playing. Try again.

Isn't Rita just a smaller version of Dragster? Hydraulic launch with some other elements? Yep, that makes sense.

Rita isn´t much fun. I still believe it will be a great looper (but not your ordinary looper). Wasn´t that what most people wished for? A good sitdown looper for the park? Guess most people thought of B&M, when they thought "sitdown looper". Just because it´s Intamin doesn´t nessecarily mean it´s gonna be launched or aquatrax.

Come on Jeff.... This isn't a game.

Then why are there so many losers? :)

Why on earth would you talk about yourself then Jeff? LOL jk

Ya I think it is going to be a launching looper but is going to have the most inversions in the world and be the fastest, however I do NOT think that it is going to break any height records. *** Edited 5/23/2006 7:02:35 PM UTC by CoasterMan23***

Well I guess that does it, then, since it won't be breaking EVERY record. ;)

I completely agree with you Axel...it looks like it will be something similar to Rita, I just hope that CP can make it one of a kind.

Me too. *** Edited 5/23/2006 9:30:32 PM UTC by CoasterMan23***

I just quoted Jeff, as I was afraid his post was invisible to some of you ;)

Well, lets see here. Rita is a hydraulic launch coaster. TTD is a hydraulic launch coaster. Why would CP put in another hydraulic launch coaster? That doesn't make much sense.

Well if you look down from the top of the MS you will see that it is going to be a launch coaster for 2007. *** Edited 5/23/2006 9:37:26 PM UTC by CoasterMan23***

Why, there's a straight line of footers? How many curved lifts do you see on the point?

What are you trying to say that this new coaster in 2007 is going to have a curve lift system............dun dun dun.=} *** Edited 5/23/2006 10:04:38 PM UTC by CoasterMan23***

Of course it will be just like Rita. After TTD was put in and it was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO successful in it's inaugural year, CP plans to only install hyraulic-launched coasters, and even retrofit the older ones. This will culminate in the 2012 addition of the 600ft revolving restaurant "Cedar Heights" where you're launched up the side at 150mph, have 10 seconds as you ride around the perimeter to grab food off the buffet and eat, then plummet back down to the ground again.

LOL - that was priceless Phathorse!

I drove to the point this weekend from Boston and of course MF was down from 3PM Sat through Sun and TTD went down at 1 PM on Sunday. One ride on MF, no rides on TTD after waiting 3 hours, had to leave (arg). The trip still kicked ass - had a great time and NO regrets.

But another launch in 2007, not a snowball's chance in hell imo.
