vedved82491 Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 I thought the description for Scream on the website was a little....wrong. "Ever wonder what it feels like to fly through the air, without a plane, a jetpack, or even a pair of wings to hold you up? Well, get ready to get airborne. Scream features a totally one-of-a-kind floorless train design. Look straight down and all you’ll see is the ground or the sky, depending on which direction you’re facing. Since there’s no track over your head or under your feet, riding Scream is exactly what it feels like to fly." ...No track below your feet...except that's exactly what's beneath you, hence the floorless design.
singemfrc Posted April 28, 2015 Posted April 28, 2015 ^ They mean that when you're inverted, there's no track underneath you, because you're upside down and the track is above you. Not really a unique feature to floorless though. That description more closely fits Tatsu.

I agree the description fits B&M Flyer or a Vekoma Flying Dutchman better.

sxexaxn Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Some guy on Instagram just commented to the @ourmountain_thrillpark page that Twisted Colossus just took it's first test run. He's a lead at SFMM supposedly... If so this is great news!

Aaronkv Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 There are pictures of a train on the lift hill, it looks like it is on the green side meaning it has indeed taken the first lap of the ride.
chickenbowl Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 The picture shows the credit I suppose. Orange train clearing the blue lift!
ioio Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 An aerial video (a la SFNE's test run of Wicked Cyclone) would've been great to see! Hopefully they'll run some test runs for the people at the construction tour tomorrow... so we can get some good video footage
X2coasterfreak Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 But wait the ride couldn't possibly be testing yet there is still weeks of prep work left to be done!!!!!!
fpsphil Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Is this an alternate universe or another six flags park? I can't believe their testing and its not even May yet.
skaunit Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Is this an alternate universe or another six flags park? I can't believe their testing and its not even May yet. Right? I'm so excited!

Nrthwnd Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Patience. What's that? Something you do not possess.
Guy T. Koepp Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Patience. What's that? Something you do not possess. Patience is a waste of my time!
Superbatboy Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I also read a rumor on IG that the 4th train isn't happening, hopefully it's just a rumor
Jew Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 But wait the ride couldn't possibly be testing yet there is still weeks of prep work left to be done!!!!!! Track completed April 18th. First cycle April 28th. Didn't exactly start testing over night.
AllenA07 Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 Glad to see it is testing. Always a mix on how long it's going to take. Deja Vu had the track done for months before the first train cycled.

First cycle April 28th. Didn't exactly start testing over night. I think that was meant to be a slight to SFMM's notorious track record of being behind schedule. Though, not this time. That fire might have helped shaved some time off construction

coasterlvr Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I also read a rumor on IG that the 4th train isn't happening, hopefully it's just a rumor instagram is awesome. unless you heard it from the dippin dots guy, it's not legit. anyway, i'll wait for pics and video of it going around the circuit. someone says it's run, other guy says no. lol
Sfne1313 Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I think the rumor is that there won't be a green train. I think they're 4 trains.
