P. 796 - Ride closing 10/30 to remove launch and install chain lift!

Recommended Posts

I was thinking, IAAPA is in like a week and a half (16th-20th). Lightning Rod's train (car...literally) will more than likely be revealed there being it is a newly designed train. I have a feeling that during that week or at the event is when we will see a POV/more art work.

Side note: is it just me that thinks this or, do you guys think it would be a cool experience to have an on board sound system on these trains? Like as you launch, have squealing of tires then switch over into a fast paced 50's song with the revving of an engine over the airtime hills. I know this train will have headrests so it wouldn't be impossible.

It would make the trains unnecessarily heavy. You can achieve the same effect with speakers mounted on either side of the lift / launch up to the top.

I didn't want to say anything after the first set of pictures a few pages ago because the drop looked very, very short from that perspective. Obviously that was just an illusion due to the frame... This is ridiculous. Holy crap.

 

 

That is exactly how I felt. Seeing the latest pic of the drop really put it into perspective for me. Its so beautiful! OMG I hope I can come to DW soon!
