Is it just me, or is Mack performing the most contorted, painfully long test runs with these trains possible? :lol:

Don't worry, I think we are all feeling that.

I wish they'd start putting on the chassis, this is almost painful :lol:

I hope it isn't awkward with the distance from the track.. if their heartlining is off by even a little, you'll get a nasty ride.

Tbh, It doesn't look that high up from the chassis, It's just that there is only one seat on and we normally see them all on.

Wow, awesome animations, really good quality. This does look brilliant, and I love the look of the trains. The inline roll does look a little odd though, seems to take quite a circular path through it.

It looks really slow in that video, like it only just makes the inversions. I'm thinking it's the way it was filmed though and that it looks better in person? It is one ride I wish I could get on this year.

Is it me or does it look a bit sluggish?:-( It looks heavy. Maybe Mr Macks ridin to see if they can crank it up a bit. It needs to flow through the vertical loop more.

It does look a little slow, although a lot of times rides seem to look slow while on the ride they're just fine. That may be the case with this one. Regardless, I think the layout is fantastic as is the theming with all that fake rockwork. I'm very interested to see what kind of reviews the ride gets once it's open to see how the speed issue plays out.

^That isn't often tho.. and just comparing it to its Intamin counterparts.. that bad boy might be a tad bit slow.

Well if its got people on it, it's been signed off and thats the speed it's gonna be.
It doesn't look too bad and don't forget that this has 5 cars, not 3 like Maverick.

And don't forget that it's slooooooow. Lol at the folk who were saying "Don't worry they're only launching it at 3/4ths speed!". My asshole they were. iSpeed ftw...

I know... I know this one is going to be hard for a lot of you to swallow... actually no it isn't because most of you are fanboys, but at this point Saw looks a bit better than this one...

The speed of this ride is a disappointment, but I suppose overall Mack haven't done too bad. I mean the actual look of the ride is superb, before everyone saw the ride testing comments were good. The trains look pretty decent and the openess will add a different dimension to the ride.

I'm not too sure how the LSM works but maybe they could increase the speed of the launch, even just a little bit........ please.....

I hoped it would be faster as well, I just hope its not going to be yet another average coaster at Europa like Ollie said, I hoped they would build a coaster to make me want to go back.

But them trains could make the ride though due to being able to move your arms.
