4rturo Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 ^^I'm sure it was just easier for him to ask rather than look through 65 pages of posts for his answer. LOL Actually it was lol. Thanks for the answers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericm95 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 That drop looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Cold Medina Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) I went today and the drop had another piece of track so only a few more and the drop will be finished. It looks so insane from the other side of the park. Edited July 9, 2010 by robbalvey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texcoaster Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 OK, I gotta admit, that last pic gave me giddiness. I love the idea that TxGiant could be a coaster that could be in my top 10 wood and top 10 steel lists (although not at the same time - TG hasn't been in my top 10 wood for awhile now, even though it was #1 in 1990) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggernel Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 That first drop looks insane! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Cold Medina Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 You know looking at it sometimes, I keep forgetting it's a wooden coaster, and for some reason keep thinking it's just a very over supported steel coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasquatch Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 You know looking at it sometimes, I keep forgetting it's a wooden coaster, and for some reason keep thinking it's just a very over supported steel coaster. But it isn't a wood coaster, it's exactly the second thing you said! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Six Flags Enthuseast Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 That first drop looks insane! I agree! It looks really steep! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDcoasterMAN Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 ^ It's a good thing this ride isn't being redone by Intamin... They'd probably put trim brakes on that first drop!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coast4airtime Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Gonna be steeper than El Toro, yes, gonna be better than El Toro.....NEVER!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyuk200523 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Looks very impressive so far.... .....lets just hope it isn't rough! Cause that would be an expensive mistake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texcoaster Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Gonna be steeper than El Toro, yes, gonna be better than El Toro.....NEVER!!! Firstly: if you can make such a claim (won't be better than El Toro) about a coaster that isn't built yet, the full profile not yet known, made with a track system not ever used before, then you're just basically saying "hey, look at me! I make speculations out of thin air based on fanboy bias!" Secondly: Why compare them at all? El Toro is wood, TxGiant is steel. It seems more apropos to compare TxGiant to Magnum --- AFTER you've ridden both of them, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Converging Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 This by far the most intriqueing upgrade of the recent trend and judging from what I've seen so far; it's fairly obvious that El Toro quality is the ambition of this project--especially with that drop!

Funky Cold Medina Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 ^Well considering the fact that Magnum isn't exactly the greatest coaster ever, and it doesn't take much to beat it, I'm sure that's why he said it [/pedantic] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagiMountainMan Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 ^LMAO Its your opinion that Magnum isnt very good and how does he know TG is going to be better? Pretty bold statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
