Thanks!!!

That is going to be one awesome ride! Are they going to have a Media Day? If so are club TPR members invited? Thanks in advance.

^ Very very nice.

 

That is all.

[kentuckycc]

Looks great! And such a quick lift!

[LogBur]

Damn!

 

Appears to rip through the course with very nice speed. I think I'm gonna have to fit this in on the way home from HoliWood Nights.

Was already planning on it, and this video just reaffirms this!

The train sure did blow through the course! Makes me wonder how it's going to rank among other coasters in the region. Can't wait to try it out myself!

[prozach626]

Wow! The pacing looks great! I know it's probably already been said, but is LR going to only have one train??

[KBrylczyk]

Oh geeze, my legs hurt just from watching that video. The airtime looks like it'll be pretty intense!

No there's a green and a blue train

[Gnome]

This aint the Morgan rides you thought you knew indeed! Looks abso-posilutely wondiferous

[tarheel1231]

Just under 2 weeks until opening! The coaster transitions faster than I thought it would.

[mudvayneimn]

Geez that train is flying through the course! It looks like this ride is going to have some serious airtime; look how it rips through that last bunny hop. I am now officially excited to ride this coaster!

[glouthan]

Wow! That is faster than I thought the train would whip through the course. This has potential to become the steel Outlaw Run (airtime wise).

[rcjp]

Looks pretty good! I also like the sound the lift makes

[gerstlaueringvar]

Can't imagine how insane this thing can be in summer!

[thrillseeker4552]

^I was thinking the same thing. If it flies around the track that quickly during testing, I can only imagine how great it'll be when it's heated up in the summer!

[glouthan]

Me too! I love the "whirr" caused by the motor hauling the train up extremely fast.

[rcjp]

^It sounds a bit like a futuristic spaceship being turned on or some "laser gun" charging up

That is what it sounds like! Maybe they could change it to some cracking lightning

[coasterfreak101]

Holy crap that's fast.

[DarienLaker]

Holy crap that's fast.

 

You mean "Holy crap, that's Lighting fast!"
