The cars look great!

And the headrests...... Love them!

So awesome! Thanks for sharing and I too love the surfboard headrests!!

Those trains look awesome!! Thanks for sharing!

The new coaster looks great--definitely a few steps above the old Boomerang that used to occupy that space.

Thanks for the pictures. That footage looks awesome. Getting some serious hangtime. Love it. Can't wait to ride it later this year.

Does anyone have any info on xcelerator? I am coming down for vacation and will be at the park on March 9, 13&16. Do you think it could open by boysenberry festival time? I hope to not wait till my next vacation in October to ride it. I am very much looking forward to the updated ghostrider though. Never have rode it smooth. Can't wait to ride it.

The more I see of this ride, the more excited I am to ride it. Thanks for the great photos and video!

This really looks great! I love the trains with the surfboard headrests! I'm a little worried about the queue going under all the mess of track because that probably means some type of net in case loose articles fall on the people below. I think that's a cool idea, but the more coasters do this it seems the more nets are placed up because things keep falling from the riders.

The testing video really has me excited. I think it looks like the pacing of the ride looks great. I still love the color scheme.

Okay, fine... I'll jump on board... I LOVE those headrest!

This coaster looks like a GREAT addition to the park, and I look forward to making it out there to try it out one day!

Hangtime looks sick as hell. From the layout to all the little details, this looks like a perfect coaster for the park. Can't wait until it opens! (And then can't wait to get back to the West Coast!)

Thanks for posting the photos & videos from the tour!

This looks like a great new coaster! I'll eventually get out to Knotts and I'm sure this will be a highlight when I do.

^ Oh man, if you haven't been to Knott's, you really need to. It's fantastic, and I wanted to go back even without anything new. Hangtime looks good, but the rest of the park is already worth going across the country for (and I did). You'll have a great time.

^We’re always really protective of our limited time at Disneyland when we come in which is why we’ve never really broken away much during our trips (I’ve done Universal three times, the San Diego Zoo and SeaWorld San Diego once each and that’s it), but this is definitely on my must try list. I definitely know I’d enjoy it!

Love the trains! Can't wait for an opening day announcement.

Knowing you, Your mind would be blown by Ghost Town Alive. Such a great entertainment option.

Um, you go and see shows like World of Color a dozen times. I think you can probably skip a few of those viewings and go to Knott's.

^Wish more people had that mentality - Would keep the ride lines shorter.....

Clever, colorful, and I bet it's cool to ride. HANG TEN!

Love those cars and the pacing of the ride. What a great addition for Knott's.

I really appreciate that Cedar Fair has made a point in installing nice lighting packages with their new big rides and this looks to be no exception. Just the amount of light fixtures inside the actual track looks amazing and I'm really excited to see it at night. I love the big visual statement of a well lit ride at night. (Yeah, I'm that guy)

Oh and the ride looks really fun too.

Looks great!!! Really excited to ride this.

I'm a little surprised though that I haven't really seen much of a marketing push for it. This is just anecdotal, but my family in the OC hadn't even heard of this yet. I recall a big push when Silver Bullet came out (commercials all over, etc).

I have to wait a year and a bit to ride it....

Went to the park today for a couple hours. Hangtime’s station is getting completed very quickly. Being such a dead day me and my girlfriend experienced the finer parts of Knotts. Mystery Lodge’s entrance is amazing, themeing at its best!

Mystery Lounge Entrance

Does anyone know why a giant section of Pony Express’s track is missing?

Does anyone know why a giant section of Pony Express’s track is missing?

Is it even possible for that ride to have a "giant section of track"?

Hmmm.

"A Giant Section" = Pretty Much ALL of It.
