Looking at the ride - it could very well be the best in the world. 5700 feet of track, four inversions, a ridiculous amount of airtime, and a vertical drop. What part of the ride is everyone here looking forward to the most?

The ride is a home run. I predict that it will be the best ride in the park, and quite possibly the world (don't say that lightly, as Mavericks my 2nd ranked coaster). Can't wait to see them expand on the queue and frontiertown upgrades that you know are coming along with this monstrosity.

When I first visit the park in 04', I waited over two hours for Mantis...

It's so beautiful.

Exactly. Last week they worked a ton of ledgers, installed track all the way to the midcourse, and took out a chunk of the lift. This week, I've only noticed the addition of one ledger on the drop.

CP Rundown, what have they been working on this week?

I really think it has everything going for it. Large airtime moments, quick airtime moments, a short stall, long ride length and duration. Right up there with Lightning Rod and Wildfire as the best RMC. Best coaster in the park.

I was drinking when I wrote that, still, it's not as silly as saying they are going to stop construction all together. :rolleyes:

The park doesn't work on SATURDAY, and hasn't for the last couple big coasters. They aren't going to stop construction all together, and have advanced the ledgers immensely.

The second half of the ride will not have these expansive type elements you see early on. Already, there's a speed hump that I can't imagine would be fun in the back row of a 32 person train. A given segment of track must be engineered so that the linear and rotational accelerations...

^ Definitely going for maximum capacity. The second half of the layout should be pretty awesome, since the MCBR is pretty tall. I doubt we'll get longer trains, as RMCs maneuver through some tight transitions.

^ Really? Because none of us know the specs yet. Cedar Point has actually done a great job keeping information under wraps in comparison to GateKeeper and Valravn. There's people leaking photos to Screamscape every week, someone actually emailed me photos one week.. These are of a similar...

I expect a lot of track put in this week. Do people really believe that Twitter account is Tony? I thought it was a running joke.

These RMCs are so beautiful.

That's going to be a dilemma. Wait a few weeks so you're not sitting in a 5 hour line, or ride this incredible looking coaster despite the lines.
