RMC American Eagle - Nolimits 2

RMC American Eagle at Six Flags Great America. I made a version of this over a year ago, however I decided to give it another go and start from scratch. Main change I made was making the layout quasi-mobius.

[@sharkmanxbro7082]

Part of me would be happy if they did this because it feels like it's going to fall apart and if they did this,it would finally race again. But I think that I bigger part would be sad since this was my first big coaster and because of how much of an icon this is

[@standm1]

It was the same with twisted collosus

[@nighthawk7x203]

Who GAF its one Peter griffin away from collapsing

[@nathanv7320]

Yea it was my first too and i dont want it to go id want to keep the classic loop around tho

[@phlixqlk1ng419]

@@nighthawk7x203 many people did, and still Do.

[@coastercountdowns7736]

This is an amazing creation! I love how you have made this realistic with the elements and while using good elements like that outer bank turn and the top gun stall. Well done!

[@coastercountdowns7736]

Airboss Yes, I’m guessing you have heard about the old plans for RMC eagle. Sad that they got Goliath as is much prefer something like this. Hopefully they get both.

[@coastercountdowns7736]

Airboss Hopefully yes.

[@hueylong8046]

As a long time American eagle fan, this is awesome.

[@KaspersetzSlideStudios]

That last inversion is a killer

[@standm1]

Steel vengeance 2 half ×2

[@Mickfly718]

Wow! I love the idea of this still “racing,” but you’re racing the train ahead of and behind you. I would be all in for this kind of conversion!

[@tabletkidofficial]

That barrel roll is glorious.

[@southpuddle]

Wow, that was like a showcase of everything RMC has ever done! Loved it, my only critique would be to spend some extra time on the support structure. Making the ledgers steel beams would dial the realism up a few notches, as well as some custom support work on the inversions. Overall, fantastic!

[@FactsandLogicFox]

Brian Westbay or add a launch lift hill that would be good even though that’s something rmc have done bad and good

[@matthewcasale892]

Dylan Fox I don’t want a lightning rod at great America even the down time is horrendous

[@FactsandLogicFox]

Matthew Casale that was a downside to launch lift hill

[@mikethewhizz5085]

I think that it's long straight hills would make it the perfect site for the first ever vertical loop on an RMC hybrid

[@hamiltonhickman2248]

BOILER 1 rmc have said that they don’t want to put a vertical loop on its coasters but who knows

[@cancelled148]

This is fucking insane. The airtime is relentless. I love how you used the twisted collosus type dueling stuff. Awesome! Let's build it!

[@jdrammer5664]

Alrighty then, let's get er built!

[@finalfantasyadventchildren2195]

Exactly

[@robstravelsadventures]

Great job. My only thought would be to make the red side lift hill a launch like Lightening Rod. That way you would have the chain lift on the blue section and the red section would be launch. Two experiences in one. I like the additional hills instead of the helix as well.

[@hunter_hult]

This coaster is like a garden... I dig it!

[@doritosauce6632]

That was smooth

[@timothychan8938]

If this actually happens I would be so happy. Sfga is my home park and it would be absolutely incredible to have a coaster that could potentially be better than twisted colossus so close to me. Please let this happen Six Flags, I'm begging you

[@MinkyBoodle44]

I love this! The only thing that I think needs to be added is an MCBR at the back end of the track near the turnaround. The capacity probably wouldn’t be that good. But it looks absolutely incredible otherwise!

[@MinkyBoodle44]

Airboss That’s true, but to be entirely honest, I haven’t been all that impressed by the dispatches for Goliath, and I’ve heard that other RMCs are also pretty slow dispatches as well. But I also understand the need for ensuring safety on the restraints as well. I just know that this would get the longest lines in the park by far, and I think maximizing the capacity would be necessary at a park as crowded as SFGAm. The brakes probably wouldn’t even have to be used, just there as a safety precaution. But yeah, don’t mean to sound like I’m bashing on this. This is absolutely killer, and it would almost certainly be fine the way it is

[@jakethecake6952]

MinkyBoodle44 yes this park is my home park and its packed i dont think its queue line now would be long enough to hold the crowds for this. They should put a MCBR where the airtime hill was at the beginning of the helix right after the inversion or top gun stall thing which is the same area a MCBR is right now at the top of the helix

[@standm1]

The MCBR could be used as a mid ride show if needed like West Coast Racers. Then it could duel everytime.

[@ronkydonk]

This is the best coaster ive ever seen good job man

[@henrybachor799]

looks good but I'm predicting GCI is going to use their new hybrid model

[@Tribenix]

This could beat SV

[@tylerkriesel8590]

I know, this would have 6 inversions

[@wutduh8697]

It probably would. That's an extremely long ride.

[@scrailfanproductions5732]

I totally agree

[@tiedough7481]

X doubt twisted colossus 2.0

[@KemoKidd]

That was my initial thought as well.

[@darrylellis5616]

This looks absolutely fantastic RMC needs to hire you.

[@Camerenyoo9]

Helix section is the iconic part of the ride for almost 40 years. Would have to be more incorporated than this. Other than that, fantastic!

[@Therecreep]

I would like to imagine a pitstop element on the brake run before the chain lift on the red side like West Coast Racers to ensure a dual I think its going to be used more commonly on dueling coasters.

[@TheFringes.]

This would be a monster of a ride, but I’m not sure it’ll ever happen. I don’t think Six Flags would want 2 high intensity RMC coasters in the same park, and we would lose the record for most wooden coaster track at a park. As someone below me mentioned, a GCI retrack sounds more likely.

[@Camerenyoo9]

15 years ago the idea of adding more than one B&M would sound the exact same way. Now SFGA alone has three B&M's, and used to have four. Multiple parks around the world have 2+ because they were the best in the industry before. Now that RMC is taking the crown it really isn't that farfetched to entertain the idea that there'd be multiple model/makes by them in the same park. Same pattern. I hope it happens.

[@TheFringes.]

@@Camerenyoo9 That's a very fair point, however none of the 4 B&M's at the park are really competing for the same market. I guess Superman and X-Flight were similar concepts, but Batman is a higher intensity invert and Raging Bull is the traditional hyper coaster. I can see the GP just thinking a hybrid Eagle is "Goliath but better" and making it obsolete. It's a toss up.

[@lilglaberz6756]

Looks sick

[@renegangfan5630]

Insane job

[@poke1796]

SIX FLAGS. SIX FLAGS. but besides the joke this might be the best layout for a roller coaster like ever.

[@DARK_AMBIGUOUS]

Do you think if they RMC The American Eagle, they would make the drop 300-350 feet tall? I know this sounds ridiculous but would they be able to if they wanted to?

[@daleftuprightatsoldierfield]

I highly doubt it. It’s too close to the road and the park needs special permission from the city to build anything over 200 feet. Not to mention they would have to basically rebuild the entire structure from the ground up to support it.

[@DARK_AMBIGUOUS]

The left upright at soldier field I know it’s ridiculous but this guy I know insists that for some reason they are going to RMC it and make it 300 feet tall, I keep telling him that it’s ridiculous but he just doesn’t understand how rare and unlikely it would be

[@nothankyou7978]

no.... they’d probably keep it at the same height

[@madnes8313]

this is great. As a kid I remember the drop on AE being the most thrilling part of Great America. Any update should make this the case again. Failing to do so would be disappointing to me.

[@samspeterson566]

I really hope the construction starts in 2020 and it becomes a real thing in 2021

[@samspeterson566]

Airboss I know right!!

[@tobak35]

Great America is my home park, but six flags being six flags might just plop down a twisted collosus clone. Amazing idea and I hope to see it built, however I wish the red side would take another lap after the racing section. Very unlikely but I feel some inversions and overbanked turns would be lacking

[@madduxmasopust4646]

Really great concept, man! I just believe if it were to happen, it would have a few less inversions. Maybe 5 if they wanted to break the record, but 6 seems a bit too heavy, but love the steeper drop and the helix section looks great!!!

[@Daniel-Cruz]

@@AirbossNL2 Great America is my hope park as well. I think if they add a few missing rollercoasters and a couple more flat rides we are on par with Cedar Point

[@xhaanfilms2479]

Maddux Masopust nah they gotta keep the helix structure how it is

[@madduxmasopust4646]

XhaanFilms with the way SF is, ESPECIALLY with the whole pandemic thing rn, they're gonna have to cut some of the ride of or make it non-dueling to make it a good enough price, and the only place to cut some track off are those two helixes, you gotta do what you gotta do

[@jakethecake6952]

XhaanFilms then it would be so boring with rmc track bc its smooth. The only reason the helix is good is because it’s rough and that makes it fun.

[@xhaanfilms2479]

Grapefruit Coasters nah, if you add a very slow inversion to it, so that it takes an entire 360 to complete a roll, that’ll add a great inversion, top tier airtime and use up most of the track

[@alecmerkle3417]

This looks great SFGA make this happen please!!!!!!!!

[@MrDrkNoir]

This...actually could work in real time. Probably shorten it up a few seconds but overall...this can work

[@LuminolBlue]

Awesome ride, very smooth and fun to "ride"! :D

[@zerooog1traveller113]

Good concept blue hasn't been running for a while maybe they'll just do the blue side since red is so close to the road 😀

[@tigerrocks503chase8]

Blue has been running most of the time.

[@debrasimpson9823]

The ride is so fast it’s like ‘quick let’s get outta here we’re in someone’s lawn

[@gps-getem3390]

Who told you to make the best roller coaster in the world

[@carminecdinoproductions]

This is so cool!

[@ThrillCoasters305]

That's a Thicccc Plot of land tho. Not sure if it gets RMCed.

[@ethandufresne2272]

This would be better than SV if it was real

[@itsevangaming6691]

If this layout ended up being Iron Eagle it would be the best RMC

[@justachipofftheiceberg6313]

That's sick dude, I have a question though how do you make it so the supports arnt smacking you in the face when ever there's a inversion, I made a rmc and I took the time to make it rideable in terms of G force but it isn't cuz of the supports are in the path of the trains during the inversions. I used the support generator btw

[@bradleyschlifke9635]

This is a genius idea, the only reason this ride is still up, because its a old fashioned favorite, but this ride could get new popularity if this new design was implemented just like cedar point did with The Beast.

[@tigerrocks503chase8]

The Beast is at Kings Island, not Cedar Point. I think your referring to Mean Streak which was at Cedar Point and was converted by RMC into Steel Vengeance

[@jakethecake6952]

TigerRocks503 Aka: Chase they should Dinn Steel Vengeance which means they bring back Dinn then take the RMC track off SteVe and then put the original track back on then it would be sooo much better hahha jk

[@tigerrocks503chase8]

Problem is the Dinn Corporation has been out of business since the early 1990s.

[@jakethecake6952]

TigerRocks503 Aka: Chase i know but cedar point can bring them backk :o haha this was all a joke

[@thecoasterconnoisseurs837]

How about world’s tallest dueling RMC Hybrid Height: 170 ft. (for both) Drop: 180 ft. (for both) Length: 4,800 ft. (for both) Wouldn’t be the biggest coaster in the park but it’d probably be the best. Combined Height: 340 ft.

[@wutduh8697]

They don't want to put in the money😑

[@thecoasterconnoisseurs837]

Wut Duh duhh it’s SF, the discount chain but they should.

[@TheFringes.]

RMCs tend to get shorter both in length and height when they get converted. Currently sitting at 127ft tall and 140ft drop (If I remember), it probably wouldn’t stray too much from that

[@thecoasterconnoisseurs837]

The Fringes it should though, it’s an RMC

[@jakethecake6952]

Also both tracks are around 4,000 feet so if they rmc it it should be around 6,000-7,000 feet

[@urbex_coasters]

I'd be ok with Iron Eagle if it isn't mobius, one side has nothing but airtime (ie 0 inversions) and the other side breaks the inversion record (ie has at least 15). You know, so they compliment each other nicely. Kind of like Battlestar Galactica at Universal Studios Singapore. That or RMCing just 1 side while keeping the traditional layout on the other.

[@diamondcat9904]

I personally love this but honestly for me the drop and the helix is like the best part of the ride so getting rid of it would be sad. Also a lot of the smaller drops inside of the structure but thats just my opinion. Edit: also my opinion I am a fan of kinda rickety rides and i can see a lot of yall dont which is a rip. It doesnt give a headache at all for me

[@cookimaus1]

If they did this it would make american eagle the longest coaster in the world

[@sum_rand0m]

Sfga needs this as a replacement for rolling thunder. The Larson superloop isn't a coaster. Also, their last original coaster, that was actually good, was El Toro.

[@oldchannel5576]

this is for great america, not great adventure.

[@super1321]

SEND THIS TO THE PARK!!

[@everydaynoob1]

They should make this at Carowinds to make up for getting rid of thunder road RIP Thunder Road

[@Alex-iu7qn]

They got copperhead strike as a replacement and some waterpark additions

[@everydaynoob1]

Yeah I know I live down the road from Carowinds

[@Alex-iu7qn]

TheBobPlays i live in carowinds

[@Alex-iu7qn]

My favorite ride id fury three hundred and twenty five at north california carroewhindd

[@everydaynoob1]

Alex I mean fury is awesome I love it to but I love copperhead strike the best I have a shirt a hat and a picture from it but thunder road always has a spot in my heart

[@henryhughes7408]

Fastest lift hill I have ever seen

[@xhaanfilms2479]

Great concept, but I think that the helix that's already there would have to stay since it's an iconic part of the ride

[@lilglaberz6756]

XhaanFilms but it is hella boring

[@lilglaberz6756]

Patrick Cadiz but if it was given the RMC treatment it would be smooth

[@hfreddy127]

This should happen to American Eagle

[@retro_ppmf4211]

This would be so expensive but would put Goliath to shame Then we can relocate goliath!

[@simonhess2614]

Twisted Colossus on CRACC

[@dawgebredd]

twisted collossus , but on steroids

[@D2Kprime]

The wait-time to ride this thing would be like 4hours. Seriously. It's an awesome-ride and I'd love to ride it, but it's way too-long and literally *EVERYBODY* in the park would want to ride it.

[@KingT8]

Wow

[@utahcoasterenthusiasts]

I like and it would take a boring ride and make it exciting. I know aone really love American Eagle but it was just bland to me. I had high hopes and it just wasnt that good. I doubt they ever so this though as SFGAm already has a RMC.

[@jakethecake6952]

Unbolted Alarm Also GP won’t notice because one is see through and the other still looks like a wood coaster even though its an rmc hybrid

[@devinmartyne]

OMG, THEY HAVE GOLIATH, WHY WOULD THEY NEED ANOTHER ONE!!!!!!!!???????

[@jakethecake6952]

Railroad And More Studios GP wouldnt notice

[@seanlewis1148]

Why not? Fiesta Texas has two( Wonder Woman & Iron Rattler), so it's not impossible. Plus Goliath is a wood topper track, not a hybrid.

[@sportsMike87]

It's cool but I don't see it ever happening

[@kiliankray]

Dont fuck up a classic.

[@davidnevolo4402]

BUILD IT

[@IndyCoasterCreator]

It's a little too long tbh But still amazing

[@IndyCoasterCreator]

@@AirbossNL2 yeah. I think it could have been two coasters. But I mean, it's still pretty cool when its like twisted colossus!

[@mikethewhizz5085]

I'm really glad Great America has Goliath because I'll be damned if this becomes real
