if only they would ... if onlyWow, absolutely stunning. If Alton Towers does build a RMC coaster in 2017 I hope it does something similar dropping down into the Valley.
45mph is a little more than a fast lift hill though really? I would certainly class it as a launch, for example, we all class 'The Hulks' old lift as a launch this is no different, it's certainly not any slower.
Personally I am not disappointed by it at all. Dollywood have said from their original announcement that this is not an all out thrill ride. It is designed as a high end family thrill experience and that's exactly what the POV shows. There is no denying that it will be packed with airtime and that first over-bank looks huge in the video and promo images. Plus, that quadruple-down on the side of the mountain is nothing short of epic!
I understand it is the same ride but from the images and statistics, I presumed the ride would be longer. This ride I was really looking forward to but now not as much but I am still happy to see Dollywood developing.This is literally the same ride they released a layout of months ago, along with chopped up POV footage. Never understand why there's always this reaction of "oh it's short" now like we didn't know exactly how long it'll be ages ago.
I think it looks great. Has a lot of speed and height left at the end that they maybe could have done stuff with but it doesn't outstay its welcome and that dive down into the breaks looks rather thrilling.
