kidcoaster 2 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Has there ever been a enclosed tunnel on a B&M invert before? Maybe they could dig the trench, enclose it with a tunnel and then add some lighting and fog to it. Oz Iris has a little tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 In addition to those listed, Black Mamba at Phantasialand also plays around with terrain and tunnels a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I feel safe saying that if we're hoping for underground tunnels or well-themed trenches or other features in the middle of the course, we're setting ourselves up for disappointment. At the absolute most, I don't expect to see anything more than what was in the concept art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 ^Agree. The concept art already looks great, anything else is a bonus that will surprise us. I'm just hoping that KI will turn the fog effect on all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PVA62 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Wasn't expecting to see any more track put up until after New Years. Love that drop into the valley! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The track is supposed to be completed by the end of Jan. Even though that isn't very likely. They say there on schedule. They haven't added like any track in almost 2 months!!

I can't see why they wouldn't meet that... or at least be close. Think about how fast what is already up went up. Also, two months? I think its been more like 4 weeks to a month. But looking great! Parks in the snow are always quite a site! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamondbacker27 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Not about Banshee, but isn't Drop Tower getting down to its last operating years? I mean it will be 20 in 4 years! I think a S&S triple launch tower would look sleek in its place * WOW. That means I will be 20 in 4 years!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Not about Banshee, but isn't Drop Tower getting down to its last operating years? Based on what? By the way if they ever replace an Intamin Gyro Drop with one of those mediocre S&S towers I'm never going back to that park. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pyrocoasterkid Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Proof of the excavation being done on the two previously (too?) low spots. This is the exit of the lift-loop: Originally from the KI website. So I wonder if this was a mistake by B&M or the crew/company that did the footings and in turn moved the dirt back around after they had completed their job?

DBru Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 That drop out of the zero-g looks nothing short of incredible. I just hope the park plants some trees back there in SOB's old plot. It would be a lot more fun--especially at night--to dive into a wooded area rather than just a wide-open field. Just 4 months to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
