^^Ah yes, the Intamin cable, dammit, forgot about thought!

I really do like how the train goes right through the lift hill. Also, funny to hear the people's reaction in the video when they first see the coaster.

Yep looks like those fancy new bathrooms with that new fangled indoor plumbing they are building for next year are really coming along nicely! lol

[ShavethewhalesIf the donkey is rockin, don't come knockin!]

^There actually might be bathrooms included somewhere as well. There's definately a little addition to the side of the station that will probably have a gift shop in it, maybe bathrooms as well. They could use some in this area of the park.

That video shows they were quick to add more track to the drop on Monday. By now it might be fully tracked. I'm wondering if we'll see any photos this weekend of the crazy post-drop curve going up. I think it's going to be one of those beyond-overbanks like NTAG has.

^With how fast the lift and drop have gone up I wouldn't be surprised to see at least most of the first turn completed. It's just crazy to think that this drop is taller AND steeper than T-Express, and the dip before and sharp descent will probably give some insane airtime.

I have a strange feeling that come Sunday evening we will have some pictures to look at...

Is it just me or does that turn look like a zero-G roll , with the steel supports on top.
