^Good! Glad to see a relatively early start on it! I am hoping that they will to tech rehearsals like they did last year with SEFK. Get a lot of rides in before opening.

Well the amount of queue space depends on where the entrance is placed. No matter what, it will have to be a relatively small queue. And about X2 and Tatsu queues, the X2 queue is about a 65 minute wait when it is to the entrance during the day in the summer. People stop under the shade and leave open spaces during the summer in order to stay out of the scorching sun. But at night, the full queue is about 90 min. For Tatsu, I usually have about a 45-50 min. wait with a full queue. The way it usually works is you start with a 10 min. wait in the station, then you add 10 minutes for every row in the bottom queue that is full. This usually works when there is a good crew. But that doesn't always happen. And Green Lantern is a 60 minute wait from right at the queue entrance.

^I don't get it either. It for sure will have a long line. And it will move really slow. This will be a great ride.

^ It may be short but it will sure take a long time to get through! It will have a very low capacity.

3 riders is BY FAR better than 4 unless the car is completely unbalanced. I have actually been on it with 2 riders before. One on each side. They made us sit back to back and we got a 1 flip ride. Just if they would do 2 on one side and no one on the other. That would be insane. And anyways, the ride is supposed to be painful! That's how it was designed. If it wasn't painful then it would be boring. So if you don't like pain then don't ride it. And nope, no music or fire on X2 on Monday. Not on either train.

Yes I know that. But overall every ride on it that I saw yesterday was a little more spinny than on past visits. And on S:EFK, another time they went 3,2,1,-1,-2,-3 then pressed the button. And they are still giving out the 2011 maps. Do you remember if the first trim brake before the first drop was on? I recall one particular ride in the morning when they were having some operational problems and had to close it for a while (after our ride) when the first trim brake didn't brake us and we zipped through the whole ride a lot faster. The first trim brake was indeed on, but the brakes in the middle of the ride didn't bring it to a full stop like they have on some previous rides. They had mechanics working inside the main control panel on the far side of the ride. Not sure what they were doing, but the ride was still operating while they worked on the inside of the control panel.

I visited the park yesterday and it was realatively empty. We started off as being the first ones in the front gate and we went straight to X2. Empty trains cycled for 10 minutes or so before they let us ride. They have switched which trains they are using on it now. When I went in November, trains 1 and 2 were running. Now, trains 1 and 3 are on the track. Train 1 is really bumpy and hurts a LOT more than train 3. #1 had quiet music, but #3 was completely turned off. Everything else was running very quickly and had 2 trains except Riddler which was still on 1 train operation. GL was better than ever. It seemed to be flipping a lot more than on previous visits. But the longest like was for Superman, about 30 min. running both sides. Went back to X2 around 3:30 and the line was down to about 15 minutes from the 60 minutes it was in the morning. The stair side of the station wasn't being managed very well and every row was backed up to about 5 or 6 trains. It looked like the Tatsu station with all the lines backed up. But overall, very good day. Oh yeah, a very creative Superman launch. The ride op sang Dynamite! And then shot us out after she sang "baby let's go!" It made me laugh the whole ride.
