Whoa! What happened to all of the posts? Earlier today there were like 5 more posts and this Santa guy was talking about White Lightning and how it was impossible for there to be a flaw in Intimidator, and Coasterbruh had posted some pic of a potato or something. Please help me! :?

It along with several others were deleted as they obviously offered nothing of value to this thread. Mine was deleted as well.

Does anyone know if the workers have the chain in place yet?

How would the track be in the way? The only track that affects the chain the lift hill track, andthe chain goes on and under that, so the lift has to be completed firtst. I was thinking they either put the chain in the grove at the bottom of the hill and pull it up with a large crane and then let it gently slide down the return and then connect it at the bottom, or I thought they would put it through the gears and motor at the bottom, and then turn the motor on and let it push the chain up. I would have no other ideas.

I think the track he is referring to is the diving spiral/MCBR area blocking a crane from entering the area.

Drove by the park the other day. It is amazing to see Intimidator and know that I will be able to ride it (hyper-coaster virgin here).
Can't wait!!
