Also take a look at that station... awfully wide for just a "TNT Replacement"

Make at that what you will.


Also to the kid that keeps DM/emailing me, no I don't know when registration will open for Fan Fest. 

Um...well this certainly changes the prediction market.

Quote from: hollijo on May 28, 2026, 10:08:25 AMAt the end of the day this is a TNT replacement, not much more and not much less. Probably longer, better themed and more unique but its a TNT replacement. Think of Mystic River Falls replacing Lost River, it was the first of its kind (tallest fastest etc..) this will be no different.
I hope im wrong.... I would love a hyper or stryker
Sounds like you have some inside information.  I'm not convinced it is a TNT replacement.

Obviously I dont think it would be even close to a clone but I see it having similar speed and height while being much longer. And no im not dumb enough to think they would build another spinning coaster (thats not what I meant by similar). I am talking about a low to the ground well themed family experience by Mack. And I'm sorry but if you really think Herschened is building a Hyper coaster after getting rid of their only family coaster you're delusional. This is going to be a family coaster. Even if it is a striker its going to have multiple lift hills (as does Cobras Curse). This is going to be a mine theme type ride much more similar to a Cobras Curse (in terms of family feel) than a Voltron or Hyperia lol. It is probably going to be something Mack hasn't done before period.

Quote from: hollijo on May 27, 2026, 06:35:15 PMThe more I look at this the more I think it could be kinda similar to Cobra's Curse at BGT (But on Steroids). That is (family-thrill) and I think SDC would blend a Mine Train theme and some sort of first of its kind element(s) into it but a similar ride experience overall. I think it would be neat to see some sort of backwards train option like OG TNT before it was taken away as well. I do however, think it will be the longest rollercoaster in the park in terms of length and duration by far. As well as the largest investment in SDC history. Anyone who thinks Hyper is sadly delusional. I see this staying pretty low to the ground with some small lift hills here and there to stretch out the length and duration.
Why would you think it will be similar to Cobra's Curse?  I seriously doubt it will be another spinning coaster, and we have been told it will be the first of it's kind in North America.  Pair that will ACE Coaster Con coming to SDC next year, and the massive plot of land.  I will be shocked if this is not a hyper or Stryker.  Those 2 check the box of 1st in North America (Mack has zero of either model in North America).  Delusional would be thinking this will be a Cobra's Curse clone.

General Silver Dollar City Talk / Re: 2nd Annual Fan Fest 9/19
Last post by sdcfan88 - May 27, 2026, 01:49:55 PM
Huh wonder if they will still do something for Aug 16th. They usually do a media day for announcements for National  Rollercoaster Day. That's when Time Traveler was announced previously.

Last post by biscuitcreek - May 27, 2026, 01:31:45 PM
According to the summer edition of the SDC Times, September 19 is the date of the 2nd annual Fan Fest. It's supposed to be a "momentous day for momentous news". Supposed to share all the details of what's new for 2027.
