Space Freak Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 So does anyone have any predictions as to when they will start testing this monster? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Six Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I'm guessing not for a while. The trains just got there a few days ago and the station really isn't built. (Although a lot of progress has been made throughout the last few weeks) Not to mention they're at the mercy of what the weather feels like doing.

socalMAN123 Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I don't think they will test the ride until a month before it opens. Wait a sec, when does it open? Brent "never knows when coasters open" Shenton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twister II Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 I'm guessing not for a while. The trains just got there a few days ago ... umm the trains have been there sence December 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAcoaster Posted March 2, 2005 Share Posted March 2, 2005 The pull through was supposed to have either just happened or is just about to happen (who knows how all the snow and wind we've been having has effected that schedule). As for launch testing, I think that may be temperature dependent. We've had below average temps (are normal high this time of year is 45 degrees, and it's only been about 35). I know most parks won't run a coaster unless it's over 40, and I'd think that really cold temps would effect the hydraulics. As soon as it starts testing, we'll all know it. There are hundreds of people keeping an eye on KK for signs of life. And with all the employees starting over the next week or two with processing and training, there are plenty of insiders who will report what's going on. Every time a shovel full of dirt gets moved, someone lets me know at this point! How they could figure out I'd be interested is beyond me...

Space Freak Posted March 2, 2005 Author Share Posted March 2, 2005 Sweet, you have to keep us informed... As for the temps, it looks like we are going to remain below average for at least another week. (boo!) So lets keep our fingers crossed!

Guest Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 (edited) I'm guessing they will start testing in April or May. Edited March 5, 2005 by Anonymous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GAcoaster Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 The Golden Kingdom and the Tiger show are opening with the park on March 25th. Testing should start soon though (within the next 2-3 weeks). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastermadness05 Posted March 5, 2005 Share Posted March 5, 2005 Im really curious to see how many roll backs they have in the first day of testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
