As is usually the case I've been bored at work, so decided to do a bit of research about possible makers of SW6. Its not alot mind you but I'm sort of convincing myself that ive found out what it is... I'm not sure if this has been said before but from what the manufacturers themselves say, I think it could be quite close to the mark.Wing Rider Launch Coaster"A new evolution in accelerator coasters, the “Wing Rider Coaster” is an enchantment for riders and spectators alike. Not only will this new coaster’s layout offer a ground hugging ride enhancing the sensation of speed, but also with the revolutionary design of the vehicles, passengers will be ‘flown’ in a way previously unknown through the various track figures. These innovative vehicles suspend the guests slightly diagonal over the ground on ‘wings,’ as opposed to sitting above or hanging under the track. Ergo, rather than the track blocking a visual field in front of the passenger or above the passenger, respectively, this vehicle design allows for a totally unobstructed visual field for EVERY passenger! Additionally, the over-banked curves provide a sensation completely different for each guest according to their position relative to the ground. Moreover, the ride has the ability to incorporate the unique feature of a dark show section immediately after the trains leave the station, before launch. The intention of the dark ride section is to add time to the ride experience, as well as create a build-up of anticipation for the guests. The trains are shot from a standing start to their ‘take off’ speed of 100 km per hour in just over 3 seconds utilizing Intamin’s patented hydraulic launch system!"Obviously there are some details amiss, but whats to say the dark section cant be after a bit of speed or a lift hill, and that in itself would be a first, but anyway, I'm just throwing it into the mixer.

Anyone want to buy a carpet?EDIT: Oh and if you think I'm completely wrong please bear in mind I am a noob and our wee little feelings may be hurt.
