LiquidForce Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I love GCI's style with how awesome their roller coasters look! It kind of has the same style as Renegade with the low to the ground hill after the first drop then the tall turn around... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastercrazed49 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Even though the video quality was crap, it still looks like an awesome ride. It has great speed looks like it will have plenty of airtime to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterchi Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 Here are 2 new video's that i took yesterday. One is forwards, and the other is backwards. Sorry, but Youtube really did the quality no good! Forwards: Backwards (This video really gives you an idea how fast this ride is!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav- Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Nice videos, how is it possible that you can already ride it i'm jealous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterchi Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Allright then, just one more video! But thisone is a little bit more special. I had put the camera on the face of Chris Gray (from GCI) and me. Chris gives his comment during the ride so i hope you like it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbolaaf Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 I did the ride yesterday also and its really a great ride with some good suprises like a bit airtime and good speed After the flytrough the ride becomes really hard to follow with al the curves but it sure gives you a lot of fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav- Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 In which station do you have get out of the ride, in this video it stops at the first station with the transfertrack and in the videos above it goes until the station with the fly-trough, it seems to me like there isn't much room to get out off the ride under the fly-trough so you have to get out at the first station, or am I wrong?

hyyyper Posted June 28, 2007 Author Share Posted June 28, 2007 you are wrong getting in and out happens in the (same) station you see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbolaaf Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 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. I'd say it's a pretty unfair comment to make given those conditions. --Robb they used sand bags so thats why you don't see anything.... But its still a pretty fast ride and the vid does not give the feeling like the ride itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janster Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 I rode it today! It's fast, it's insane, it's smooth,'it's very well themed and it has a lot of sudden twists, hops and dips. Troy is my new #1 roller coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroTre Posted June 29, 2007 Share Posted June 29, 2007 Wow! Now THAT'S a station fly by! After riding the Rumbler at Beech Bend, I wish that GCI had built something closer to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turbolaaf Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I rode it a few times now and will be back there today Clair Haines (president of GCII) stands on the exit watching people coming out of the ride with a huge smile. Its a pleasure to see a man enjoying that. According to him this is the best GCII he build so far. Chris still doesn't know for sure since its a lot like thunderbird. Anyway its a great ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
