I'm not sure if it's the overview, but it only looks like a thirty second ride. It will be an amazing thirty seconds however.

No, this ride is just a lot more widespread.

Is it just me, or does this layout seem a tad bit short compared to what GCI usually builds?

If you`re talking about the picture that I uploaded three posts earlier...well...THAT looks more like a 5 seconds ride 
Joking aside...it will definitively be more on the short side...but it`s more than 1000 meters long...so it`ll probably be okay like that. Maybe the coaster looks THAT small because it`s footprint is al littlebit bigger / longer compared to other GCI`s ???
Just a thought...

The ride time starting from the top of the lifthill to the break must be at ~40 seconds.
Otherwise it will be impossible to have a throughput of 2000 pph.

Piraten is *the* roller coaster (after finally riding Expedition Geforce, I'll admit, it was pretty freaking awesome to!) .

I was at Toverland today and a whole buch of people from Europa Park were there to shoot videos of Troy and record the sound of the coaster, so that they could use the recorded material to promote their new GCI. Pretty cool!
