I’ve only been on one RMC (Lightning Rod) but I’m hooked. They’re making some of the best coasters on the planet.

I thought it was fast as hell, but too rough.
They need to be done with Gwazi and stay away from wood.

Lightning Rod is not being replaced/removed. The source was a server at a park restaurant. They won't know anything about anything of that nature, unless it was made public by a park official.

It’s not rough now, but I kinda wonder what shape it’ll be in after a few more years. It’s pretty aggressive.

Although if it’s closed half of that time I guess I shouldn’t worry! (Laughing on the outside, crying on the inside!)

And just to point out, they also broke a lot of details for Gringotts with OI.

I've only been on Twisted Colossus but I'm competently sold on them. They're definitely making something different from the other coaster manufactures out there plus I found Twisted Colossus to be silky smooth for a wooden hybrid.

will they be keeping the name? Seems like a name change is a good idea.

Keep the name, but change it a little.

Gwazi: Uproar. That's what I've always thought RMC Gwazi should be called.

So is it a retrack or a rebuild? Rebuild I think.
If rebuild I think a new name, how about "Jack's super fun coaster"?
