atem122 Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 ^It's actually the name of the Larry King porno. Thank you! I'm here all week. Be sure to tip your waiter!
jjune4991 Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 (edited) While testing the second launch they will probably be very careful not to shoot it all the way into the tower. That would be a real pain to drag it back from the MCBR. . AAAAAAAAaaaannnnd, incorrect. There is a video from r c pro that shows that it's made it to the MCBR already! I can't post the link to the site b/c of some dispute here, but it's on r c pro and on Busch Garden's Facebook Edited April 20, 2011 by jjune4991

Here's the facebook post: https://www.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.rollercoasteregomaniacs.com%2Fupdates%2Fbgt4.19.11%2Fch2ndtesting.wmv&h=f83da The link didn't work, so I tried to do what you did and guess what? I'm thinking it may be blocked, I honestly don't know. It put the same link in as yours which does not work. For what ever bizarre reason, I can't even get a link to paste in for that sites homepage and correctly work. The video is there, on RC Pro's home page, in Hi Def and a smaller quality. Untill I figure out what's going on, you'll have to navigate there on your own. Thanks dragonskeep for the sweet video and heads up! Peace, KC Edited April 20, 2011 by KCForce
willh51 Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 It seems to me that the Intamin seats of late have been much more forgiving to larger riders and B&M's seats have gotten tighter. I'm not sure if it's the deepness or just the restraints. Intimidator 305 easily can fit some pretty large guests.

Just look around r c pro...you'll find pics and a video
KCForce Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 ^ Dang you got to my post before I got it edited to not look foolish. I realize it wasn't the author, something else. KC (I'm embarrassed on the internet) Force
jjune4991 Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 ^No problems man. I didn't realize the link when to r c pro, who's address is changed on TPR. Which kinda sucks because I'd like to just post the video than say "Go there and check it out!".
Skycoastin Steve Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 ^Google is a wonderful thing, my friend. Not to mention, the link is posted on BGT's facebook page.
jjune4991 Posted April 20, 2011 Posted April 20, 2011 Si senor, pero it'd be nice to be able to post things and not have petty disputes hindering them.
Inukaza Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I will possible be going back to BG this Friday or Saturday. If it's still actively testing, I will try my best to get another video, maybe a full off-ride video of the entire layout. I'll try my best. If anything I'll have photos.
jjune4991 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Sorry man, but Pufferfish and I will be there tomorrow, so we may beat you to it on the pictures. (Not sure if I'm gonna take a video)
jjune4991 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Just got word from Andrew that he won't be bringing a camera. So a video will happen!
Maximo37 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I will be at BGT about 3 hours from now... if Cheetah Hunt is testing, I will try to get a video (if my camera battery decides to behave...) The video feature was working beautiful for the Zip Line adventure (which was AWESOME!) yesterday at "Forever Florida" (in St.Cloud)... lets see if the battery (its tempermental you see) holds up just as well at BGT...
Inukaza Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 Hmmm. May this be a race to receive the best video. Just say'in. I personally hope that they didn't launch the train full speed up the hill. I don't like how slow the train was around the rest of the track until it the MCBR. And if it isn't. Holy shit airtime over the crest to the tower.
PennStater Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I very highly doubt that it was full speed... especially if that was its first time through.
coasterlover420 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I also doubt the wheels are fully broken in. It is possibly going slow for that reason.
dragonskeep Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I wouldn't expect it to be that much faster, Mark Rose described it as a lazy figure 8. As it was the train reached the drop with a decent amount of speed, I hope it gets a little faster though.
jjune4991 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 I'll just leave this here........ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8SLv0zHVf4
dragonskeep Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Cool! Looks pretty runnin around out there. Were they running it full circuit or stoping it on the MCBR?
jjune4991 Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 This video was taken when they tested each launch individually. By the end of the day, they were doing full circuit testing.
