A taste of the theming for the ride! i hope there's more than just the truck! Also, the number on the truck is a working number and gives the caller a funny little message. We've had to call in the experts! Our Rattle Snake is out of control and wreaking havoc all over the quarry. Rumor has it... there is mysterious activity inside the snake lair cave. I wonder what would happen if you call the phone number on the truck?

I also noticed that on SFFT's FB that their profile pictures says "NEW SUMMER 2013!" I guess that whole "Mid-Spring" thing wasn't realistic after all x)

From SFFT Facebook- "180-foot Tall Lift Hill - Complete! The Iron Rattler's EPIC 81-degree (almost straight down) first drop with a hairline twist is finished. Who's ready for the smoothest and most thrilling ride of your lifetime?"

"Want to venture into the Rattler’s cave? Today we can, thanks to a great new construction pictures from Six Flags Fiesta Texas giving us a look at the work being done inside the cave while they transform it into Iron Rattler" - screamscape.com here is a picture of the tunnel. cant wait to see what they do with it! from screamscape.com

^^ Ah, gotcha

So, are they going to make the drop higher or does the fact they are bringing the bottom of the drop lower make it to be 171 ft. ? I don't know if that process comes later but, to me, it looks like they haven't done anything to make the drop taller.
