It's a great looking ride! I love the colour scheme and I think the ride will do the park well! I just hope it gets built well and has trains like Iron Shark or Karacho. Gerstlauer are really doing great with their layouts recently!

Yeah, Gerstlauer seems to be doing really well.

I thought that it hasn't been determined if it was the manufacturer's or the park's fault and hasn't Alton Towers taken all the blame so far? If it was Gerstlauer's fault wouldn't there be some kind of checks going on with all their Infinity coasters to make sure it can't happen again. I've had a couple of conversations with my contact at Tripsdrill about this and they claim there's nothing wrong with Karacho's system and Gerstlauer has assured them that their coaster is safe.

Darren, I was more aiming at the quality of some of their newer rides rather than their safety record. Plus, the Smiler seems like a big failure either way.

Track is on site and has been for a while

It's gone vertical these last few days

The lighting effects should be pretty cool though

Enjoy the notion of backlight the track directly. Would certainly make for a cool visual effect!

This ride looks pretty sweet, but I am still contemplating whether this makes a 5 1/2 hour drive to Adventureland worth it.........

Iowa...so no.

They could have the best RMC in the world, still probably wouldn't be enough to get me back to that **** state.

Hmmm I would probably give in if it was an RMC, but anything else probably not.... Iowa is for sure one of the most boring states in the whole country. Sorry all people who live in Iowa....

I really like the colour, think it stands out nicely.
