GrapesLie Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I think this ride is gonna blow people out of the water! I can't wait to ride this summer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kentuckycc Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I drove by today and the track on the lift hill is finished! The drop tower is also op and it looks great. I like the lattice metal a lot better than the solid drop towers. It also did not look grey like it is shown in the park map, it looked a lot darker in person. Hopefully it has some cool lighting effects! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 Wow, that's really impressive looking drop. I didn't realize how steep it was going to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyRCT3 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I might take a day trip down here sometime. Has a great selection or flat rides, and a decent waterpark. I'm glad this place is being revitalized, it would've been such a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPSFMMCW Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 yay! Its pretty much done! hopefully we'll be seeing some testing soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glouthan Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 ^Given the park opens in a month and a half, I think testing should progress soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArizonaGuy Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 That coaster looks like it could possibly pack quite a punch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 It's like watching a baby getting birth (of course without the bloody scene ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBru Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 The giant American flag and flagpole on top of the drop tower is a great touch. Onto the world's tallest body slide! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mudvayneimn Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Lightning Run topped off, Fearfall completed, and the largest firework show in the USA this Saturday, man it's a good week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFJorts Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 This looks like a great coaster. Glad to see it finally topped off. Is the full run completed now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Peck Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 ^ no, they still have to finish the transfer and the stairs and various things like the lift chain. I think it will be testing probably after Easter or before May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondbacker27 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I cant even. I'm speechless about how amazing this park is looking and lighting run! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetman82 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Lightning Run topped off, Fearfall completed, and the largest firework show in the USA this Saturday, man it's a good week! I totally forgot when Thunder was taking place... Anyways, something to look forward to seeing this weekend! The park now probably looks vastly different than what it used to, I'm sure.

Diamondbacker27 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 This picture reminds me a lot of leviathan's first hill. So glad to have such an amazing coaster about 15 minutes from home! Sorry for double post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
