No. It's not complete.

 

[JoshC.]

The trains are still up there with the ugliest I've seen in a good long while.

Yeah, unfortunately I agree. The front just doesn't look right. But at least you get a nice view of the front wheel bogies.

 

[MakoMania]

Is the track complete now? Argh I have annual leave coming up in 3 weeks time, could it be open then?

Unfortunately not, track and supports still have to be installed.

If you look closely you can see the train on the storage track!

Bit of drone footage from the park.

She's looking a bit big, nice!

Wow... that shot around 0:20 gives me Roller Coaster Tycoon cover art feels.

Good god for some reason I assumed this was gonna be a typical overbank (which are actually pretty good on RMC's). Was not expecting a juicy outerbank. If that doesn't tickle your pickle then I don't know what will.

A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one

 

[Antinos]

Goodness, they waited to build the best two elements (this hill and the stall) last!

 

[Zeuscoaster]

I love these trains!

 

[MouseAT]

The height on that outward banked turn is insane. This whole ride is looking like it's going to be utterly mental.

The Iron Gwazi station. Regular queue on the far side of the photos and seen in last photo. Quick queue behind me with separate ramp. #irongwazi #gwazi #rmc @BuschGardens #rockymountainconstruction pic.twitter.com/mvFaL4A5s7

Yeeeeeeeet hill on Iron Gwazi

[Matt N]

My, that looks even tighter than the similar hill at the start of Steel Vengeance!

 

[toofpikk]

'seats? yah nah save yourself some money, you won't be needing those'

 

[Magic-Man]

Iron Gwazi is on the move! Awesome to see some testing going on before track work is complete. #irongwazi #buschgardenstampa #tampa #buschgardens #busch #gardens video: https://t.co/u7kvVzvktZ pic.twitter.com/UsvavW1OCv

So what are we thinking... a Steel Vengeance beater?

I do like the cheeky nod to it in the title (Iron / Steel).

Due to how much shorter than Steel Vengeance this is I’d say no, however that’s not taking away from the fact that this will most likely still be one of the best coasters in the world.
