Could this mean like actual new rides unknown to us and the public or the sort of theme of rides going in such as the air race? Would be awesome if there were more rides coming on top of what we are already expecting :)

Could well be more details about the dark ride in the original plans.

^when we chatted to Sexy Charles Coyle he told us that they have no idea what the dark ride will be, if it even will be a dark ride, they just wanted planning permission for the building so that they have it there ready to go for when something is planned.

The website says shot tower, whatever that could be.

Was checking instagram and the lift looks topped out. Check #taytopark.

In Ireland it's great to have something like this finally. I get the impression posters think the park is a bit mad with such a huge investment!

But they are attached to a company with money to burn so watch this space ;)

I actually don't think they (Tayto Park) understand the significance of the coaster from what I have seen. Just my opinion.

This coaster looks excellent, it's massive and that large flat ride they have installed is absolutely crazy!
 
Re: Tayto Park | The Cú Chulainn Coaster | Gravity Group Woo

Anyone planning a trip there that I could join?
Ideally in July
 
Re: Tayto Park | The Cú Chulainn Coaster | Gravity Group Woo

Waiting for confirmed opening I think Dave. Ian said there will be a Live once it's open so keep you eyes peeled. I'm sure a load of people will go over for the day on a regular basis if it rides well too.

Yay! Tunnel!

Do we actually know where the inversion will be on this one yet?
 
Re: Tayto Park | The Cú Chulainn Coaster | Gravity Group Woo

I heard that it was going to be an 'over banked turn' rather than an actual inversion. I could be wrong though.

But that drop looks absolutely beautiful.
 
Re: Tayto Park | The Cú Chulainn Coaster | Gravity Group Woo

I didn't see any covered sections in the plans? I think the overbanked turn is not built yet but crosses near the beginning of the lift section. Could be wrong but looks like that on the plans.

The roller coaster will open on the 20th of May. The owner said it on the radio this morning.
 
Re: Tayto Park | The Cú Chulainn Coaster | Gravity Group Woo

What radio station was this so we can find it?
