What Could RMC American Eagle Look Like?

[@nolimitscoasterguy4813]

I think the coaster would cost anywhere from 15 mil - 25 mil, if we use Zadra’s cost to estimate the price ( which was a ground up coaster, and all parts were shipped oversea ) then yes it is very expensive for six flags, however if we use iron gwazi numbers which was a conversion then it cost 15 mil. So yes while it is still a lot, on the lower end it’s the same cost as maxx force, although that price probably wouldn’t work at this moment due to wood being more expensive atm

[@EliteCoasters]

Good point

[@michaelinanir5635]

Didn’t iron gwazi cost like $9M?

[@kmccurdy21]

@@michaelinanir5635turning two tracks into one probably gave them a lot of structure and footers to work with.

[@mmocken]

Two options to consider. 1) massive zero g stall just before the old helix, 2) dual launching...GrAm would have 3 launching coasters and put this on par or better than Lighting Rod/SV/IG....

[@MrGoat-cd8lt]

a stall would feel too much like goliath

[@coastersaga]

Regarding the launch... Lightning Rod's main cause of downtime was it's launch. So, that means launch out of the question

[@ConqueringCoasterz]

Imma go out on a limb and say that this looks like it *could* be the world’s best roller coaster if it opened, but I also just love RMC hybrids. Not to mention the massive outer-banked turn on the blue side looks like such a killer element.

[@animalyze7120]

I would ride this in a heart beat, a really nice showing of what could be for our Fair American Eagle.

[@coolcoastercreations7680]

Incredible layout. The idea of American Eagle being RMC’d is a very touchy one for me. American Eagle is my zero coaster, so I would prefer to see American Eagle run for as long as it can (hopefully until 50), have a very nice last ride event, then replace it with a Giga. In a perfect world, I would love to see the Gravity Group give it new trains, retrack it with their new precut track, and fix up the structure so it can duel again. But Six Flags will probably never do that.

[@indian_coaster_enthusiast]

SF will probably demolish American eagle and replace it with a Vekoma slc

[@calebwilliamstime]

@@indian_coaster_enthusiastthey dont buy slc's anymore and six flags would use the humongous plot of land wisley

[@waba320sc]

Never happen because if they do it, it pass the noise law

[@liamwutt]

unfortunately great america probably wont see a giga coaster because the village of gurnee says that they cant build anything taller than giant drop (227 feet) but i would love to see one

[@chipsinsideajar1372]

Just kinda throwing this out into the void but I think a fun idea could be to see what some of the smaller RMCs would look like as Steel Vengeance/Zadra/Iron Gwazi-like Hyper Hybrids.

[@EliteCoasters]

That's an awesome idea!

[@JimmyNeutron1029]

I’d like to see a big Twisted Cyclone. That was the first roller coaster I ever went on ☺️

[@cheesebone82]

This is just awesome, I've thought for a while now that Six Flags needs to just bite the bullet and drop an RMC American Eagle for one of their flagship locations. This concept is really great. Although the issue I have with Mobius-Loops is that the whole ride has to be shut down if there's an issue anywhere. Two separate tracks still often allows for one of them to operate if there's an issue with the other...

[@NickyD]

wont happen because of zoning laws

[@NRGFLOGaming]

SFGAm is my homepark and seeing something like this come to it would be awesome!!!! Also, an RMC with NINE inversions!? HOLY CRAP!!!!! :D

[@lightningbot85]

This is awesome, I like how you explained it at the beginning, it sounds kinda like how Iron Gwazi was made, but with them keeping the dualing. Great layout!

[@donkeylips88]

I picture American eagle turning out similar to Hakugei at Nagashima Spa Land. Could end up being the star attraction at Great America if RMC would tackle this!

[@TrainCoasterFan]

If RMC were to work on Eagle, they wouldn't be able to do much with the helix because the city of Gurnee won't let SFGAm do any major construction to the helix because it is too close to the highway. Amazing concept!!

[@EliteCoasters]

Good point

[@supremefan]

city leadership constantly changes, so this isn't something that couldn't be changed. It's a pretty dumb rule.

[@youtubeuser7132]

If that is a law keeping the helix would actually be fine for me, allows for more interaction, more historic and iconic value, and draws the ride time out more.

[@kyleansel1021]

Great vid. Love that Sims 2 music in the background

[@matheuscastello6554]

i really enjoyed the layout! i think you did a great job! however i feel like it could use more duelling elements that get the trains closer still, personally, the first two elements right after the drop don't seem like they have the trains coming too close together as the side that doesn't invert seems to stay low to the ground, and after that it seems like the duelling elements are sparse, but that's just me though, aside from this nitpick on the duelling aspect, i think this is a really fun layout, and you did an excellent job :)

[@murphy1538]

Yay! New coaster! Edit: I just watched it, and it is one of my favorite coasters you have created! Top 3!

[@EliteCoasters]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@Sokobansolver]

That looks crazy-making

[@CravenableGaming]

This is one of the craziest coasters I have seen you make. The pacing reminds me of your coaster Chiller. This would be Twisted Colossus on steroids, and possibly the best RMC. Good Job!

[@EliteCoasters]

[@zzrzz6199]

I love how much time/thought went into this.

[@First-Drop-Studios]

You should try Gemini at Cedar Point!

[@officialchase02]

You should do a concept of what Iron Gwazi could’ve looked like if they had kept the dueling element and not of turned it into one single Attraction

[@craigraether4293]

Love it .. however I would do two circuits with another pass around the helix. What makes Twisted Col work is that each pass is not that long. Making it two unique layouts each having its own elements, makes for two rides that people would wait again for. When you ride Eagle now, you ride one side and youre done. .. Increase the height to 150 for 170 foot first drop, ... While you have the RMC crew onsite, add 1100 feet to Goliath.. LOL .. take out the picnic area behind it and do some outer banks and two barrel rolls... Well done!

Here's an idea: what would RMC Monstre (La Ronde) look like?

[@youtubeuser7132]

Would this be "the longest in the world" in Six Flags logic, the same way that superloops are coasters & New England Skyscreamer is the world's tallest? Given the extra track by going up and down farther, how close is it to the 10,000 mark?

[@tyweed736]

I like the concept, and I think you made cool design choices. That being said, I think you went a little too heavy on inversions. Steel Vengeance is almost 6000 ft and that has only 4 inversions. I think that a massive dueling wave turn at the beginning would be one of the coolest experiences on any coaster. Could you do Grizzly at CGA next? I hate that ride.

[@austinlovesgod8391]

Amazing video but would six flags add a rmc hybrid when they already have one but I would definitely like to see this happen

[@visionist7]

That one is a topper with a steel arch lift, and a twister layout. This is an I beam with a wooden lift & out & back racing/dueling style. They wouldn't have a problem selling it as something new.

[@tylerm5774]

The double helix and the the drop out of it is my favorite part of this ride. The main drop isn’t even as good as vipers in my opinion. But American eagle is old so people have sentimental feelings for it.

[@tylerm5774]

Its 2024 and Viper back seat is still one of my favorite things in the park.

[@ninjapwnsatlyfe]

honestly American Eagle and SFGAm as a whole could really use an RMC Ibox conversion. Goliath is amazing and one heck of a ride, but AE being so iconic and in its racing nature could really gather big hype. I am sure the elitists that want 100 year old money pit coasters to stay alive forever, but its time for a change and its not like they have room for a full on new coaster.

[@charliewan2663]

Can you remake Wildfire at Kolmården

[@FlyingDolphin118]

This is a tough one this coaster would be world class and suite SFGAM well as they need a top 10 coaster but American Eagle is already a good coaster and SFGA already has a big RMC.

[@simonewald2212]

I think 4 inversions on both sides are a bit too much and it is a little repetitiv. Maybe add one or two overbanks or wave turns just to spice it up

[@anza2]

[@Tribenix]

Keep all of the track in the helix, and Steel Dragon 2000’s record is broken. Marketing field day.

I think kings island needs an rmc and this would be perfect for changing the racer

[@CommonRiderFilm]

Post Dr. Diabolical's, I no longer think something like this would be absolutely impossible for Six Flags. In the near-term? No. But eventually, this coaster will have to be addressed and I don't see Six Flags yielding that plot of land across the service road by building something ground up.

SF isnt gonna do it for zoing laws issues eagle cannot be tocuhed because of zoing laws

@@NickyD They could, yknow, work with Gurnee and get a variance on the zoning.

[@WCfanboy]

good but too many zero g rolls and that wave turn / stengel dive looks like it has way too sharp of a crest and would be extremely uncomfortable

[@natevart4156]

I would prefer if there would be no inversions. i would enjoy if There was just airtime and maybe intensifying the helix my making the track turn sideways towards the end. The drop can be taller and steeper but I like the lay out and the elements as is. Maybe just more hills is all I would want to see besides an intensification of the helix. Not every ride needs to go upside down…
