  1. Yeah, I have cam page saved just before the covering. Looks like a next support is coming. Kinda funny they have to go to the camera cover , uncover, cover..... Understand possible reasons but wonder what is so special about the next lift or two.
  2. Anyone have the direct link to the new cam? We have the one for the other but just wondered.
  3. Clifford Jr. in half today so no steel work going to happen. Cant blame them, it is bitter cold out and that would be rough!
  4. well the next track piece is attached to crane but wonder if they will wait till tomorrow to hang due to cold/wind? As for tours, there have been quite a few and Don must do those in his sleep. I really appreciated his tour for the ACE conference winter party. Not sure how much more they will do of tours.
  5. So clifford jr is moving more towards end of ride and last part of batwing unfinished. Will they finish the batwing first or the rest of the ride?
  6. wondering if they are doing second half of batwing now. Looks like supports that could be used for it. That way they work towards themselves and clifford jr. does not have to lift over exisitng track so much.
  7. Yeah there is definite work from Cifford Jr. Steel construction is back in action!
  8. So where in the video is the digging and what area? I see lots of activity at the station.
  9. It's far from quiet around the Banshee construction site. Not all the work being done is visible from the webcam. Don, I did not mean there was nothing going on. I am aware there is lots including station work and more. That post was just in the continued construction of track phase. So when the first half was built, the track lay all over the site and worked well to construct. Why now for the second half is there a staging area up the hill instead of where the track is being built?
  10. So it has been very quiet on the Banshee construction for a while. Figure that they have off till end of year? Seems odd but possible.
  11. Well the grounds by the drop appear to have several supports built and red track stacked. Plus the drop off grounds have a good amount of both as well. Looks like we can expect some major installing soon.
  12. So i see a semi doing a delivery to the drop zone off in the distant. Why would they not drop parts closer down where there is a nice open field? I can not tell but maybe it is a slope more than it looks or such. But they drop there, then as needed have to go get it and haul to site. Unlike the first half where they laid track/supports amongst the work area.
  13. yep, but dont see any new track/supports. Guess they are working the with supports they have
  14. i was not asking that they post a day by day schedule just approximate dates. But for Gatekeeper they did post a day by day schedule. Now not sure if they were on schedule but it gave us an idea of how they were thinking for the process. So relax, it will get done.
  15. Yes, my view of the area from the cam shows very little track/supports on site. What is is the valley appears to be lower track and I think they are builiding those supports but not putting up. They are just waiting on more track/supports and thus no visible progress. I am curious if there is a construction plan available like was for Gatekeeper with dates. That would show if they are on schedule or not. My guess is that they are doing ok.
  16. Any recent plant drivebys? that might help us out to see if they are waiting on a drop off
  17. Yeah, trying to figure if clif2 is building stuff in the valley. Kinda odd as they usually build in ride order. ok, so did a image save and zoomed in. see parts of a support and such and maybe they are doing a build and then lift and place on the drop.
  18. So I now see Clifford2, the clone on site
  19. I think baby Clifford is grown up now. Appears to be bending over to work today.
  20. My first ride on The Beast the year it opened was with him in the front seat. He told me to stick with him during the running of the bulls. Was a fantastic ride!
  21. It appears they have installed all track/supports on site and are needing another big delivery. Anyone been by the plant lately?
  22. So they are doing work on the track already installed but why are the bucket trucks so far away from the track? Looks odd that they had to extend the arm so far out when they could have moved the vehicle so much closer.
  23. Well I agree B&M is smooth but my son and his girlfriend and my daughter rode Diamondback about a month ago and all complained about how rough it was. Very odd for B&M. Anyone else experienced it lately on that ride?
  24. I have been on The Racer twice with deer inside the track area. Heading to the turn around and praying they would stay where they are or get out. Both times, they had evacuatred thank goodness...
