The drop doesnt look too far beyond 90, but they havent really made any kind of formal announcement either beyond name and the details that appear with said ride.

As I thought, those are the El Loco at Adventuredome trains and it will have on-board audio.

Here are some more construction photos from an update on All American Thrills:

Wow this things really shot up fast! I was there in October and there wasn't any track in sight.

Good addition and just nice to see that they are still prepared to make large investments in the Adventuredome and that its not closing anytime soon, as it always seems dead.

Which also means that the excellent Canyon Blaster is staying around, which is great news.

The strange kink in the track before the diving loop thing looks disgusting. Apart from that, it's nice to se a differentiating layout and how they're squashing everything in.

That looks pretty sexy! I love the colour scheme (even if it does just make us all think of The Smiler) and the modern logo. The trains look great, especially as they have fairly normal looking restraints as opposed to S&S' usual half-arsed OTSR things. I'm also a massive fan of on-board audio, although I wonder how well it'll work in such a confined space. I'll be interested to see what it's like when its done.

I like El Locos. I'm a not-so-secret fanboy of anything S&S do. Must get back to Vegas at some point this decade.

I also like the addition of the ride looks not that bad, and since Canyon Blaster didn´t got removed for El Loco I like it even more

^Me neither, it would have been a tragedy, it´s the best Arrow Looper ever built you can´t tear that piece of history down just like that.

That kink in the track is **** disgusting.

That transition is vile.

Coaster has obviously been squeezed in and that transition was needed. Hopefully it won't ride as terrible as it looks :lol:

 

[Mysterious Sue]

That really is a half-arsed job.
It's like they didn't measure the restrictions until after they started building it!

 

[Lofty]

The thing is, if they'd have designed it with an opposite banking of the entry, it'd have been a really nice transition. That's just totally wrong.

 

[Ethan]

I actually really like it haha.

 

[Jarrett]

I honestly feel like that kink looks vile in all the RIGHT ways, makes it look even more screwy than most El Locos look.

 

[Bottom_Feeder_13]

Should be amazing, random right hand turn while upside down.

 

[Lofty]

Something else that I've noticed, they've not put the breaks on the drop, could we see one without? Looking at the actual angle of the drop, it's not dissimilar to Eurofighters?

 

[Ethan]

^ I noticed that too. I thought they just hadn't added them yet but maybe you're right!

 

[Bottom_Feeder_13]

It's not nearly as steep as usual, only around 90* give or take instead of 115* so I image it will be.
