Oh Lord, this is truly amazing. I can't see anything else winning that competition!

This was back in August, so it could have changed since then (I hope so at least.) As the boat would approach the lift, the drive wheels underneath would be going very slow. The chain was going very fast. So when came into contact with the lift, the chain would grab the lift dog and yank the boat up the lift. It freakin' hurt. It's the only time I've been on a ride and everyone in the boat went "Ouch!"

Can't hurt as much as the 2nd lift on Shoot the Rapids at Cedar Point.

Hopefully this will be good news. The track just looks all screwed up in this video:

Robb, we REALLY need a like button on this site lol.

"Damnit Robb!"

After the awesomeness that was the evening ERT on Lightning Racer in 2008, I can't wait for this! Thank you Robb and Elissa for doing East Coast Bash!

I will truly roll over laughing if something like this ends up in the ride or preshow... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E5s5cDQepk I can't wait until I ride Transformers!

^Mega Zeph actually looks pretty good, yet really painful.

Correct, Oceaneering built Spider-man's ride vehicles, however, Universal did most of the engineering and they hold the patent. Oceaneering came up with a different design for DarKastle, including using air to tilt the cabin instead of jackscrews like on Spider-man.

Please note, my above comment was sarcasm... I have faith in these guys.

^ If the structure doesn't give out first...

^ The rails probably don't extend into the maintenance bay, just like B&M inverts. It allows easy access to the wheels. Looks like it would be ready to roll out onto the track whenever they transfer it on.

^ Donuts?

I agree! I've got to wonder if Kat and Harold were just pulling our legs the entire time, and wanted to make a few bucks along the way. That's the only logical conclusion I can make about this situation.

Thanks Steve.

Could somebody map out where they are staging the track? I can't seem to figure it out on areal views. Thanks.

I realized everybody over there is so wrapped up in this and they aren't seeing it like it is. So I just decided to lay it all out on the table. Hopefully they realize what's going on.

I wasn't going to say anything, but not a lot of people compliment me in this way! So, thank you kind sir for the compliment!

This should be turned into a reality show. So Kat flat out LIED to us?

Robb, is there any way you could cover the "GM and Owners’ Breakfast" on the 17th? It looks like they are going to go into lots of detail about the creation of Potterland.

^^ Mind freak! I'm not sure what to make of that. It will be interesting to see if that website develops.

I hate keeping secrets...

^When was that announced????

Looks a lot like Spider-man's track foundation. Hmm... Do I see a dual load station?
