coasterdave Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Those of us that attended Night of Thunder this year got a chance to get a Construction Tour of the Mystery MIne before ERT started. We meet at 6:30 by the gate to be let into the area that will open to the public Friday April 13, 2007. I could go on and ramble on but I know you want to see the pictures. WIll get the rest up after I get back from the ballgame sunday. Enjoy! Some Brakes Ted pointing...I guess he is pointing at the Mystery Mine Some early theming of ride Oviewview of back area View from above Over and Under I prefer 69 but 62 will be fine in this case. Terrain hugging helix One of the Verticle Lifts Got more curves that a super model! Twisted Turn on backside of building Track inside the Structure Closer view of the Mystery Mine Building Just about 5 months to go. What is this we have inside the building? The Mine itself Justin admiring the inversion before taking a pic to remember it by. The 95 degree drop View while walking up to the construction area. As you can see there has been alot done since my last trip to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarmor Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 in comparison to this pic how is that roll taken? Man I had no idea about this event... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 The Mine looks to be quite the attraction ride. It's nice to see that the smaller steel coasters being created now, can actually be totally enclosed and themed for a really good all-encompassing experience... and thrills too! Thanks for sharing the tour, Dave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dr.gumbo Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Best steel of 2007. Agree! A coaster with a killer headchopper is definatly a top ride IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterjunkie91350 Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Hey when is it scheduled to open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheStig Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 in comparison to this pic how is that roll taken? Man I had no idea about this event... There is an inclined complete heartline roll, then a half roll into the half loop. It should be a cool element actuially! Im looking forward to seeing how this thing looks when its completed, it already looks cool now! Maybe an 07 DW trip is in order...

willski Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Best steel of 2007. Uhh....95 degree drop into a dive loop into some brakes. Then some other randomness. Not saying it will suck, but best steel of '07? I doubt it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECZenith Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 I had no idea it would sport curves that twisted, nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesdillaman Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Best steel of 2007. Uhh....95 degree drop into a dive loop into some brakes. Then some other randomness. Not saying it will suck, but best steel of '07? I doubt it. Random? This is the most thought out ride of '07 if you ask me. The best storyline hands down, and I believe the theming will be very good. I don't think MM will dissapoint! -James Dillaman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IwantRevenge Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Hmmm, that turn after the drop to avoid the rolly thingy looks like it would hurt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
