robbalvey Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Awesome! Thank you! Honestly, I've seen MUCH MUCH worst "testing" videos. At least yours wasn't some "Blair Witch" style thing where you couldn't see the track! Â --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterchi Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Man oh man, i had the chance to see the first 3 test runs fromout my workspot (about 20 meters from Troy). Damn, every fan who showed up, totally freaked out win the train was running the track! The sound is just heavenly good and each run, it got faster and faster! Now i seriously can't wait anymore!

FLIPDUDE Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Whoa!It looks AWSOME! I'm pretty positive this coaster will be a "top 10" for most people who ride it. It looks GREAT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Golfie Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Did GCI ever make a CGI (heh.) video of Troy? I can't wait for a real POV! That thing is amazing, though. WAY better than the forest of trees it was made out of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamBam36 Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I'll save my judgement till I ride, but besides the first drop it looks like it crawls through the course. I know it has to be worked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 I'll save my judgement till I ride, but besides the first drop it looks like it crawls through the course.I know it has to be worked in. You also gotta remember these are the FIRST trains they've dropped. And from the looks of it they had no water dummies in them. So there was no weight in the train. Â I'd say it's a pretty unfair comment to make given those conditions. Â --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chadley Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 Thanks for the video! For me, the name and the theme have always peeked my interest. Now to see in action, I can say it doesn't disappoint on video, just wish it were closer. Â This has been one of the coasters that I've been looking at with a lot of interest, (even though I'll probably never ride it anytime soon!). It is loud, but that thing is flyin'. Hope I do get a chance to ride it someday, along with just about every other coaster in Europe. Â Â Â Taco Bell...it's not just a restaurant...it's a night in the bathroom.

coastercrazed49 Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Wow that looks amazing and fast. It looks like it will have somegreat airtime! ALso the ride is very loud to, but thats ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christianscoasters Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I hope they do something about the noise. If your that far away and a coaster is making that much sound, something needs to be done IMO. Other than that, TROY FLIES!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyyyper Posted June 18, 2007 Author Share Posted June 18, 2007 Ok, i've added a download for the ones who can't stream. If you can stream it might be wise to download it anyway. Because the streaming made my video to a 4:3 while it's filmed in 16:9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Pete Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 WOW! A weekend trip is definitely on the cards at some point. Â If it's going that fast now, what will it be like at the end of the season?? Â Well done GCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 If it's going that fast now, what will it be like at the end of the season??  Toverland has no end of season  Thanks for the footage hyyyper! I really want to go there now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterchi Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 And the day after, more test videos show up!  Testing video from Coastervision.nl : http://media.putfile.com/Testritten-Troy  And ofcourse, toverland.info has one to! This video is from the very first run and you can see, it wasn't that fast! So look at my video and after that, the one from Bas/Hyyyper, than you can notice the difference in speed between the 1st and 4th run!  http://www.toverland.info/index2.html?url=/content/woodynews/troyeersterit.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDG Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Looks fast enough to me. As said before, these are the very first runs, and without any ballast. Â It looks marvellous, sounds heavenly. Can't wait to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
