Cool. Let's hope this is still just lapbars and not OTSRs as I really dislike the Intamin OTSRs (got to experience them last week on Storm Runner and Fahrenheit).

Great pics and thanks for the excellent detective work!!

Should be interesting and I am now I am really looking forward to the 2010 season.
