I really cannot overstate how inaccurate an observation this is. Ever watched Intimidator run empty trains?

No I'm sorry. I just thought it was an exaggeration. Like I said, the dummies totally affect pacing.

Edit: Intimidator just crests its hills pretty slowly with empty trains is all.

They are running trains consistently. When one train finishes the helix, the next one is on its way up the lift! :clap: :D

EDIT: The trains are not coming as quickly any more, but it still is cool to know that they can run trains that fast!

Yeah I saw that!

At the beginning of this video of Leviathan, you could see that they can send the train out as soon as the first train comes off the lift into the drop.I'm sure Fury could do the same, although it's longer than Leviathan so they may need more time. Who knows?

BTW last run just had people on in front row, I could tell by their colorful clothing.

EDIT: Rosko97 beats me into it. :-P
