Ho-ly crap!

Well it seemed odd since they don't kick up here until May! And for some I reason I imagine the mid west being really really cold? Colder than the Northeast.

Wow this excites me, gotta follow Outlaw Runs progress. A MO trip may be in order!

 

Average high temperature in March is 59 degrees in southern Missouri. Yes, there are colder days, and yes we can have snow as late as April occasionally.

(The following sentence is said in my best Missouri southern drawl) And those who know, know Missourah is part of the South.

Goodness. It's still quite nippy here in March, 59 would be nice.

Well this is great news, maybe I can get to SDC before Outlaw Run tears itself apart from epic

Here ya go!

They have posted a video of a test run on Facebook! Looks amazing!

Here's the link:

^You beat me to it.

 

Great video . It was shot with the phone in the vertical but I am not complaining. Wish I was a test dummy in the video.

OMG!!! WAY TO GO RMC!!!!! The off ride pov and the speed of the train over that small hop before the 720!!!! The pov brough to light a very cool head chopper where the track/train go through the lift hill. I'm just in awe!

[cfc]

Yep--looks pretty damn good.

[Homeboy23]

Must...make...it..back..to..Branson

 

Seriously, as others have said this looks awesome!

[JJLehto]

Yesss....

Still need the full, legit POV, this didn't give you a true sense of speed (I imagine it hauls major ass)

Great though. RMC may be a force in the future, if not already.

[johnychen]

I am glad that Southwest flys directly to to Branson now. I need to book my tickets.

[KCForce]

Yep, really glad I bought a season pass this year. Just over a month to go and it'll be open. Looks very fast.

Lots of excitement at Silver Dollar City today! Outlaw Run took it's first official test runs! Check out this video:

 

And of course, there are photos! No further explanation necessary. This ride just looks freaking AMAZING!!!

Water dummies getting all dressed up for their big performance!

In the station! Someone press the green button!!!

Who wouldn't want to be climbing that lift hill right now?

First drop! Amazing!!!

Coming out of one of three Loop-De-Loops!!!

Wow! Check out that massive structure!

Outlaw Run heading out on one of it's first test rides!

"Our test riders need a little more juice before we send them out again!"

SDC tells me "This pic is for RCT3Bross, who thought the other version was taken too late!" (Thanks SDC!)

Now that's a train full of happy riders!

Silver Dollar City General Manager Brad Thomas says "Come March 15th, you're gonna be screaming through Outlaw Run like a little girl!" (Ok, that might not be an exact quote...)

"Guys, how many times do we have to tell you...keep your hands DOWN! This is a PR shoot! Sheesh...freakin' prima donna water dummies..."

Outlaw run as seen "THROUGH THE BARREL ROLL!!!"

Here's yet another one for RCT3Bross... happy now?

"You can tell the test dummies liked it when they sit perfectly, expressionless still...and mutter under their breaths." (Turn up the audio, you can actually hear them!)

Enjoyed every last picture of it. Only I would say the Outside banked turn has been taken to late.

[Crazy4Coasters!]

What a sweet looking ride! But oh boy, that barrel roll looks INTENSE!!!

[dippindotsguy8]

This is going to be one heck of a ride! That drop looks like it will be insane in the back seat (and every seat).

[cal1br3tto]

Wow. Yesterday I thought "I think I'm more excited by those new photos than I should be," but now, I feel completely justified. Each has managed to be better than the last, and they started at level Amazing. The one with the train coming out of the inversion might be one of the most incredible coaster pics I've ever seen.

[cfc]

Looks like SDC has a winner here--a perfect addition to their already damn good collection of rather eccentric coasters.

[JJLehto]

AMAZING

God...I know Im gunna blow my vaca days and $$ to go soon

[scbt]

Wow, those headchoppers look great! Really looking forward to seeing a full pov of the ride.
