Dolly also stated this will be the biggest coaster park has ever had. Name does hint as a wingrider. Possible design speculations. Coaster could actually go under train tracks. Since the parks trains are coal fired, I doubt it would go over them due to smoke. Still, maybe it will loop the train tracks.
90 degree drop on a wingrider.
Still think a launch coaster or non-chain lift is possible.
As far a land area is concerned, I have talked to some of the old timers there. The park has plenty of land that they still haven't touched.

It's a wing rider, but what could be the element that breaks a world record?

Largest vertical loop, 200 Ft?

Hm…it wont be a giga or even a hyper im almost positive. They said it wuold have inversions. My guess is that it will be a terrain wing rider style coaster with some crazy inversion (or maybe more than 10 ) Either way this is a GOOD look for Dollywood. Ive been there all its roller coasters are great fun. Cant wait to head back some day!

well there is a 300 plus Beemer in canada's wonderland coming in 2012 dolly might be getting the same thing. Quotes like “The Sky Is Not the Limit.” and “first for the United States” it's screaming giga coaster
