ArizonaGuy Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 ^^ Looks nice....thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see it all finished up for this week. I heard from a friend that the park was quite crowded today.
SFFTfan Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 It was very crowded with the end of school year trips. Bus parking area was mostly full. The sign looks odd because both sides dont match.
weemasterce Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 Construction of the new entrance sign. I hope they changed up the layout of the que.The ramp was really cramped.
ArizonaGuy Posted May 5, 2013 Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) ^^ It's more likely that the ramps up to the top of the station will remain the same. The rocks on the ground level that made walls for the queue have been moved around a few times to change queue directions and maje room for the kiddie rides diwn there now but im thinking those will stay the same. I'm sure anyone who's doing the May 9th commercial shoot will give us a full report and hopefully lots of photos. Edited May 5, 2013 by ArizonaGuy

SFFTfan Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 The cramped ramp looks like its still part of the que. They added a few switch backs before it.
Ducky dude Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 AWESOME!!! Can't wait till it's finished! Hey, and I'm a new user and I don't know how to change my thing that currently says "I guess donkeys are okay". Any help would be great!
biker7766 Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Hi, welcome to the site! You will have to ask the Title Fairy for a new title. You will find that thread in the Ask Alvey section of the forums!
simaticable Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Thanks! In order to do so, you need to have 150 posts in this section of the site though.
Ducky dude Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Well than it looks like i'll be guessing donkey's are okay for a while.
Randomman295 Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Say what you will about the ride sign not featuring a snake (yet), I still really like the way it looks. It really adds to the tone of the ride, if you ask me.
angrynerdjosh Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Are there any good 42" rides? Looks like roadrunner express is it. SFoT has 3 decent 42" rides (judge, shockwave and minetrain) so I'm hoping sfft does too.
boardwalkbullet91507 Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 I like the sign. It's a far Improvement from its predecessor, and it looks nice too! It's real cool seeing this all come together. I've been anticipating this since NTAG opened, and it's finally happening!
SFFTbajam Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 It was very crowded with the end of school year trips. Bus parking area was mostly full. The sign looks odd because both sides dont match. There is a reason the sides don't match. Enjoy P.S. Water will come out of fangs and splashing around tail. I love the theming of the entrance!
LoneRider92 Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Okay, now *THAT* is a ride entrance. It's really awesome what Six Flags and Rocky Mountain have done with the ride. It went from being one of the rides people avoided when visiting the park to the main attraction in about one off-season. Hopefully one day I can make a trip to Texas to see these monsters in person.
Mrlittle Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 There is a reason the sides don't match. Enjoy Thanks for sharing the photo with us. The sign looks amazing and great theming. Very excited to be riding this soon.
ArizonaGuy Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 From the SFFT Facebook page. Looks like they added emblems to the air gates in the station. Very nice details being added. Love it.
Ducky dude Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 This ride just keep's getting better and better and better! Look three pics back. look at the sign that says " Iron rattler coming summer 2013" below it is the structure of the old entrance. Just goes to show how big the entrance will be!
jray21 Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 That is a really nice entrance. Really excited to for this ride.
RCT3Bross Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 That entrance sign looks awesome. SFFF really did good work with IRat for sure. (I surely must not forget to give RCM (for the track) and Gerstlauer (for the trains) some credit). Can't wait to try this beast of steel.
Ducky dude Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Talking about giving credit. this person fox news is interviewing is acting like her and her BFF's built and reconfigured it.
deathbydinn Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 ^ Um, what? She's a PR person who's speaking on behalf of the park. She came across just fine. Love the sign and the touches in the station. It's great to see more parks taking their time to add details all around the ride.
