Swoosh, it's ok to admit you were wrong about almost everything on this one.  September announcement, no lift hills, multiple launches, etc

It might be too late to admit he was wrong since he is still acting like he knew all along.

And finally congrats to hollijo for being the first to post what the ride was going to be. I'm sure a lot us knew you were right, but we couldn't just come right out and say it at the time. 

Okay Swoosh, are you telling us that you intentionally said this was NOT at TNT replacement and also the announcement would be in September to intentionally deceive us into believing hollijo was incorrect? 

Swooosh brought up that FanFest was probably when they were going to announce it, and that's not a crazy theory for anyone to think of. Several people mentioned that possibility as well.

he said it was "confirmed" to be in September and that the only "replacement" this is for TNT is that they are both rolleorcasters. He's not trying to hide what it is he just doesn't know what he's talking abt 😭

It's ok not to know what you are talking about. It's not ok to be as arrogant as he was about it.

... Am I looking at the same announcement as everyone else? I really don't get some of these comments.

No signature moment? What about the tunnel? What about the station fly through? What about the rockwork flybys? The final swoop into the valley? There are several big moments on this ride!

It's a family coaster. I know many were thinking it was going to be another big thrill coaster, but reorient yourselves please. This is AMAZING for what it is. Go look at Quantum Accelerator and how it it just built over a bunch of empty gravel on a flat lot - and that is apparently a pretty good ride!

Theming looks light? What? Was that a joke flew over my head? This will be the most themed coaster in the park other than FITH!

I'm with you on this. It looks great for a family ride. The theming is going to be amazing compared to the classic six flags gravel lot.

Anyone see anything about max speed yet? I would imagine it would be around 40-45mph but that's just a guess.

Now we need to try to figure out the first in america thing and what kind of model is it? is it something new or is it just a big youngstar?

My expectations were for a stryker and I was disappointed in this. I'm liking it now though.

3,553 feet is pretty close to Big Bear Mountains track length. It's going to take advantage of the beautiful mountain views while having some great scenes. Hopefully they announce some more things to Daredevils Pass like shops and a restaurant or possibly some flat rides. I like it and I'll be riding it alot.

I really wish this was something thrilling but it's not. Project 2027 is a DIRECT TNT replacement. This has been planned for the past 3+ years. Anyone who expects this to be on the same level of Time Traveler thrill wise is going to be disappointed. Obviously this will be marketed the entire family but this is not going to be a thrill machine or anything remotely close. It will be Thunderation's Mystic river falls with a first of its kind and some "family friendly" records broken. Herschened as a whole is pivoting entirely from Thrill to family and this will follow

The only "TNT Replacement" this ride will be is that they're both rollercoasters.  I guess you could make the argument it's replacing 1 for 1 but the REAL "TNT Replacement" is coming on 2029.  This ride was planned well before TNT decided to kick the bucket faster than expected.  TNT was expected to coexist with this new ride next season. 

Swoosh, thanks for being the voice for reason amongst all these new users adamantly trying to convince us of something other than what's obvious.  I appreciate what you contribute to this forum.

I guess in August when SDC makes the announcement you guys will finally see this is not a thrill machine and Insted a Thunderation replacement. But in the meantime believe what you want lol 

No one wanted to listen haha

Gotta give them their due. They were right.

This may have absolutely nothing to do with the new ride, especially since a lot of speculation leads to it being manufactured by Mack, however, I saw this video about a new style of RMC family coaster (Wild Moose) and thought it was interesting. Again, I know nothing, but wanted to share since SDC & RMC have a strong relationship with OR & FiTH.

I have a very strong feeling you're going to learn Sunday where the first wild mOOse will be going #WeDugTooDeep

It actually looks like it's going to be going to Kentucky Kingdom in a Kentucky Derby themed indoor coaster. RMC posted this about a week ago.

Hello everybody, new here and pretty much new to the park. I know thunderation is pretty fat friendly but does it have a test seat? I can't find any videos of the seat online
