Construction/Rumors / Re: Project 2027 Tracker
Last post by rabidplatypus - November 06, 2025, 05:52:13 PMI know Mack launched seems to be the consensus, but what if it was a vekoma stc/boomerang combo. I saw this on airtime thrills. That would also check off the multiride box. First one in NA. There are 2 overseas.

Last post by hollijo - November 06, 2025, 01:14:35 PMA launch out of the station down the hill with a pause for a little show, then something explodes back would be so sick, especially of themed right with the caves and such. 70 to 80 mph would be sick, but that's wishful thinking. This is going to be something the entire family can enjoy. (The Herschened Way) I'd expect some insane theming and cool story with caves, etc...
Going to be interested to see how Herschend's Markets it though, considering Time Traveler was kinda marketed as a "family thrill ride" if this is the same, then who knows how wild it will actually be.

Those coasters look so incredible and unique! They look like something SDC would do.I wouldn't mind that. A launch out of the station down the hill doing some twists and turns. Then a pause for a little show then something blows up and it launches back up the hill through the mine tunnels. But I want it to go 80mph. 70 would be okay too lol.

Looks like water channels, or maybe a structure like the caves that have been mentioned? (I'm not sure where this is in regards to the station so it may just be that)
Sounds more and more like a ride package everyday.

Last post by sdcfan88 - November 02, 2025, 05:14:25 PMThere are two large 20ft long forms being constructed further west of the Wildfire lift hill towards the valley. There looks to be at least two turnarounds constructed based on the footer layout. They are large but spaced very close together. There's about 25 footers total but are mostly only visible from the existing coasters. Also the initial set posted a month ago now has forms set up for cylindrical concrete footer bases which support this being a likely Mack project. There is also a pair of large footers placed right next to the Wildfire maintenance bay. This can be seen on the ground via the standing reebar clusters.
I also find it interesting they continue to do work where the old flume channels were for American Plunge. One part they just seemed to have stopped with removal but a lot of the surrounding area is dug out further. Looks to be about 4 feet deep. We will see what they do here.
On a non construction related note I noticed the back three rows of WF got a pretty bad shuffle now. Hopefully that gets addressed.
