Certainly there is truth to your statement and if it is a Mack Coaster I hope it’s even better Than some of their great coasters in Europe.

I've seen some pictures of other coaster footings and there is no indication that the footings spotted on sight are in fact Mack footings. They could be, but they could be for another manufacturer. Just saying.

On reddit, Dirkdiggler posted an up-close shot of the paperwork on the sides of the footings and the writing on it was in both German and English. The country of origin was listed as DE. That narrows the list down considerably, and coupled with what we've heard from Screamscape and even alluded to by users on this side, I think we can confirm that this coaster is a Mack.

The type of Mack it will be remains to be seen.

Cedar fair has cheap webcams and they always break. Besides I looked up at the sky tower where they put them today and it didn’t seem that it was pointed towards construction and it seems to be back on Carolina Harbor for opening weekend.

I’m just going off of my knowledge, you would think that the park wouldn’t put a camera on this when they haven’t even announced it yet.

Also it seems that they will use the bathroom

Let’s hope it’s even better than helix.
