It is time Silverwood gets another steel coaster. There are rumors RMC ma be building something awesome in the future, but what Silverwood really needs is nice B&M steel coaster, and there is one for sale in Myrtle Beach, SC. The abandoned Freestyle Music Park, formerly Hard Rock Park has several SBNO coasters for sale, dirt cheap. One of these is The Time Machine, formerly Led Zeppelin the Ride and would make a nice addition to Silverwood's collection.

Well first off, the rides and coasters from Hard Rock/Freestyle Music Park are no longer for sale. They've been sold and are heading off to a park in Vietnam. www.myrtlebeachonline.com/2014/08/11/4406797_freestyle-rides-headed-to-vietnam.html?sp=/99/209/&rh=1As the article mention, the rides and coasters used to be available on the Ital International site, but not anymore. The site stated that the listings have been removed, and/or the rides have been sold. At this very moment, the Led Zeppelin coaster is getting taken down. www.screamscape.com/html/freestyle_music_park.htmTo be brutally honest, there was nothing special about any of the coasters at Hard Rock Park. They had a roller skater that's a dime a dozen (An' just not needed at Silverwood with the addition of the Krazy Koaster), a roller soaker that's small and painful in capacity, a scantly-theme mine train that paled compared to asian and europe clones with vastly better themeing. Maximum RPM was arguably the most unique of the bunch, but it's ferris wheel lift was the scource of many breakdowns and it was the only unique element, the coaster itself was essentially a extended roller skater. An' then there's Led Zeppelin, a unfortunate cookie cutter new school B&M that just wasn't impressive. The line up just wasn't solid whatsoever. If you wanna' talk about what Silverwood needs right now in terms of the ride department, the flat ride selection could use a little jolt. Unique rides like SpinCycle is a good direction, though some more family flats would be a great addition. As for coasters, well when you know a RMC is on the horizon...other thrill coasters just don't come to mind. |

Maximum RPM would be awesome. We've got a GIB that works, who's to say we can't make a ferris wheel lift work. And besides, Gary Norton has already said he would rather see new interesting attractions instead of something just bought and bolted to the ground. But a high capacity B&M would be a welcome addition, even if it was considered relatively boring of a ride. For a large number of the guests up here, there's nothing even close to a B&M.
