^wow

so do you think this will start testing tonight or tomorrow?

edit: never mind, testing will be tomorrow. I'm excited to see this thing run for the first time :--D

 

[Martyn B]

^ So am I. Feels like it has taken an age to get to this point...

 

[reddude333]

It has taken ages to get to this point

But I'm just as excited nonetheless!

Your mum's strapped in and being filled.

LOVE.

I totally agree about the time taken to get to testing. I think it's more of the fact that all the other coasters have been testing for a matter of weeks and are opening soon that it seems it's taken that long. This was actually one of the last to start construction too if I remember correctly.

Hershey have had a lot of hold-ups with this, especially with the flooding. It's not really surprising they're a little behind. Either that, or they're not bothered for rushing.

 

[billybobjoebob]

^^yes it was the last

Hopefully someone with a smartphone gets there asap ><

Not yey. Only K is there, not W or C (who do most of the filming). A few pictures are up. Apparently very quiet, but no remark on the speed or anything.

This was exactly my initial reaction. Really cool trains.

 

[rollermonkey]

How are they any more exposed than Baco, X2 or the Wing coasters exactly?

^holy crap that FLEW over the first airtime hill. Getting excited

 

[TheCoasterCruiser]

OMFG!!! That has to be one of the best looking roller coasters i have ever seen!
I was just like :shock: all the way trough the video!

 

[Jarrett]

I didn't expect it to be that fast! That winged outer seat's going to give quite a ride!

 

[billybobjoebob]

HOLY CRAP!!! Can you say ejector!? :!: :shock:

It's still got a lot faster to go! The lift hill is going to be ~17 mph faster!

And does anyone know for sure what flew off???
