Awesome. Glad we have the live feed to watch testing, but I hope someone gets out there and can get some footage at some point (from the drop off, obviously).

This is just plain comedy.

GP 1: Looks like cheap plastic. No thanks.
GP 2: And only those small pull downs on your lap, no thanks. Not safe enough for me.
GP 3: There are orange seatbelts too you know...
Me: If you have ridden Intimdator, this is the EXACT manufacturer as well, Swiss firm Bolliger & Mabillard. Their rides are the SAFEST and smoothest out there. They rarely get into any major accidents or mechanical issues. Ride it and you'll love it!

No worries.

In 35 days, 20 hours, 50 minutes, 2 seconds (and counting) those trains will be filled with authentic full-sized southern dummies. And I'll be there with them, whooping it up and having a grand time of it.

I dont know how I feel about this gap in the corner, maybe because are brains are trained to view things in perfect symmetry. Then again an abstract object is always nice to look at. I just prefer for this to be a full arch.

^^At first, I felt the same way, but I think that It will look awesome when finished. We're just looking at pictures of it now. It will have Green LED lighting around it and will look great.

He'll totally commit to Carowinds and then go to Cedar Point. Wonder how much $cam's dad isn't making off of this visit? ;-)

We are hoping to pour concrete on Monday at the ride bridge. I can't wait to fly through this! #FURY325 pic.twitter.com/rpqRAAdisD
