Hey I was just about to post these but anyways....I think this design looks a lot better then SFOG's. I'd rather have an immalmenn/dive loop rather then the prtezel loop. Also the second inversion looks sweet. Its almost like a batwing type inversion. This design also makes the flying experience better as it appears your flying real close to the ground, and with tunnels in this pic it gives a head chopper feeling. Also who knows what is underneath the tunnel, could be an inline twist.

I rather have a larger clone of S:UF than those. I heard nothing but good things about the pretzel loop so I want it. Those two pics look short and too spread out but really looks like it won't do anything for you.

Well, I was just back on the other board, and they a few people have started to pop up saying its fake, they saw it on other boards too.
Also I'd much rather have the loop, its from what I heard one of the best parts of the ride, and it would suck to lose that.

i heard that they may not add pretzel loops anymore b/c they are too intence. Now with the new g force law it might fall under that catorgory. Anyway this new design looks just as long as the other with a better layout.

I agree with n24sports, that's probably an issue with the pretzel loop. It appears that it pulls A LOT of G's (I'm a physics fan) especially on the second half of the loop. As for that new design, in my opinion that looks way cooler than SFOG's design. It's different, AND it has a new element, yum . I'd push for that design rather than the original. ;D And it's hard to fake a computer-animated layout. This is probably the real thing. Look's like the work of Badnitrus. Don't forget, they knew about Nitro WAY before we did. They're the ones who made the layout and POV video which is currently on my desktop. And dude! Check out that twist down into the tunnel! SWEEEET ;D ;D ;D! (I expect this topic to ignite very soon...)

Anyway this new design looks just as long as the other with a better layout. 6 G's, as described by the new legislation is A LOT of force... Even the most intense Roller Coaster Tycoon rides don't pull that... ~Dan

Au Contrair, Dan. My little brother made a woodie that pulled 15 G's!!! That's 15x your body weight pressing on you!!! ;D

I'll put money on it that this is exactly the modification that Rob Srausberg spoke of in another thread. And it IS causing highly opinionated reactions! Every time I look at that new layout I fall in love with another part of it. Dig those underground tunnels baby! If you compare this layout with what we know about the loacation so far, you could see that it fits perfectly like an L-shaped Tetris piece, further strengthening the evidence that this is the real thing. ;D Unfortunately, this may actually be Great America's model. G-d, make it ours!
