Yeah, cause not believing a complete stranger when they claim the biggest travelling coaster in the world is on the way to AUS is totally stupid..
Like alot of people on here have said before: We'll believe it when we see it.
Not sounding rude or anything but its not that easy to just believe someone when they say something like this.. :]

I could never see the World's largest travelling coaster come over hre, especially Aus. Doesn't have the population to support the ride. WOuld be ridiculous to see it here. Leave it in Europe

Lol CoinKing, Really I just can't see a coaster that size coming here. And this isn't the world's biggest transportable coaster, there's the Olympia Looping built by Anton Schwarzkoft. Or will this so called coaster coming be bigger?

Hello! It's been a long time but I'm back.. So what's all this talk about a new roller coaster?? I understand that one of you have claimed to have spoken with Russell but really do we need another clunky coaster takin up valuable space in sideshow alley? Maybe I feel this way cus I'm not a huge fan of coasters but I was so annoyed at last years ekka when bough taipan and crazy coaster were there... Such a waste of space!!! I understand that this coaster won't even travel up to Brisbane but why not spend the money on something that is truly portable and not a coaster!

Welcome back Force 10, yes you are quite right, I have been thinking along these lines myself, the space that is used is immense, we will lose, other rides that a great to ride to, in Sydney at the moment we have Taipan, Crazy Coaster and the new Priates Revenge, taking up lots of valuable space, Taipan and Crazy Coaster are tucked into what I think are good positions, Taipan is where Splash Canyon used to be, Not sure I am quite as pleased to have the Revenge where it is, though it is a great looking ride. IMO we do not want another big ride taking up space, our littler rides add atmosphere, warmth and vibe, at the moment we really do not have any older rides to get rid of, all rides look great, none looked tired, a couple did last year, but they are no longer there.
