Re: Silver Dollar City |"Outlaw Run"| Wooden Hybrid Coaster
I wholeheartedly agree with Tom. If this wasn't being built in BFE Missouri, people would be blowing their loads over it. And just to beat the dead horse with regard to the inversions, the idea of a wooden coaster with inversions has always been there. Nobody thought of a steel roller coaster until the 50's. Every roller coaster prior to Matterhorn Bobsleds was wood. That means that those innovative bastards down at Coney Island were experimenting with loops made OUT OF WOOD. Unfortunately for them, their technology was much more primitive than ours today and they didn't know about clothoids. I'm honestly surprised that it took this long for somebody to finally try a true wooden inversion again.
As for airtime, I have a feeling that this is going to be chock full of it. There's probably many small directional changes and pops of airtime that can't be seen in the rendering.

According to the rendering there's a double down and a double up along with a floater hill before the barrel rolls. The Anti-bank and the wave hill look to provide more than enough in terms of laterals. I think that floater will be going over the railroad, but I haven't been to the park so I'm not 100% sure.

Re: Silver Dollar City |"Outlaw Run"| Wooden Hybrid Coaster
after reading more opinions on this I'm feeling very conflicted. On one hand I agree with Marc and Tom that it's not really unnecessary and that it really is a cool little coaster but on the other hand I really don't like the double barrel rolls.
I guess I am really excited for this and the inversions are not unnecessary, I just highly dislike barrel rolls(at least the ones I've been on) and wish it could have been a different inversion.
Either way I do hope it has some good airtime as well.

Re: Silver Dollar City |"Outlaw Run"| Wooden Hybrid Coaster
So in conclusion, 2 inversions, airtime, anti-bank, 81 degree drop, smooth ride... I'd say we have a winner.

I think it's pretty fair for us to wait until SDC contacts US before we make people remove posts.
If SDC contact us directly, someone will go through and remove all the layout pictures/NL stuff etc. If they don't get in touch, I don't think it's fair to remove it. My opinion anyway.

Well it turns out Lance is uber gunshy on posting the information due to SDC asking for the redaction of info. I don't think they're going to contact overseas websites, even if there are more than a coupler staters on here.
Back to the coaster, still gawking at those barrel rolls. Looks like it's going to be a lot of fun, especially with that kicker giving some speed while going over the first drop. I DO NOT want OTSRs on this ride whatsoever, if there's anything that will ruin the experience of a wooden coaster it will be that.

^^ Fair enough
^ A lot of the talk on the restraints has gone from OTSR to just being overhead (blue fire, Skyrush, Manta styled). I'm not even sure where the rumor of it being OTSR got started (probably SDCFans.com as I remember someone complaining bout em), but it has swayed drastically to an overhead restraint.
