The cars sure do look a lot like these... Maurer Sohne X Car S:UF cars If the rendering is true then Premier has designed cars that look damn close to the Maurer Sohne X car. The track is even similar to what Maurer Sohne uses. Wouldn't it be funny if this was actually going to be from Maurer Sohne?

My thoughts exactly. I know it's only an animation, but the cars seem awfully close to making it over the top of the inner loop. Did Premier buy Mauer or somehow lease their stuff? Non issue but if it did happen, it would be fun to be on it when it valleys. I'm pretty sure Premier and MS and separate entities but these cars look sort of similar to the MS X car.

I'm sure the awesome engineers at Intamin have already factored that in and it looks like they have come up with a design to fit onto the existing structure. All (drop) towers sway a little, some more than others, if they did not move at all they would break, so really this should not be a problem. I always thought seeing the tower sway like that was sort of scary, but at the same time kind of cool to watch.

Ah, the negativity and complaining has started. Well it had to start somewhere. When I first watched the video I noticed the two trims and thought they were a little overkill. But after watching it a few more times the trims are kind of cool as one makes you creep through the barrel roll, which makes it insane, and the other gives you just enough time to catch your breath before you fall into the loop. I am really excited about this one! And I think the pics don't do it justice. You can imagine what this will be like with it being 150ft (barrel roll) and not really get a sense of how big it is until you see it in person.

Isn't that a backstage service road? I hope the engineers thought of this. This ride still is an awesome idea and I love the fact that it uses an existing structure, but I like my hearing more. No, the engineers did not take anything into consideration, they just threw this together in about ten minutes with the help of some kid they pulled off the street, they don't know what they are doing and they don't even know if it will work... Honestly, that's a silly thing to say. Wouldn't you think that they have considered and thought of every possible situation or anything that could affect this ride? Trust them, they know what they are doing.
