Mystic didn’t have posters on opening day... those showed up later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Even if there aren’t teasers on opening day/preview night, they may pop up later in the season. If we don’t see teasers right away, it doesn’t mean 2020 is out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are you kidding? All you can see in the picture is the land where Firehawk used to sit... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That’s why he said it’d be between 90%-99% likelihood. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

And that’s why they’re listed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It wasn’t. Diamondback is also listed on their site. I don’t think that CSF does their painting independently. Baynum may just paint track at CSF. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Purchasing new seat covers for Diamondback in no way requires a notice of commencement. The purpose of that form was to inform the county of the construction projects that would be taking place. Putting new seat covers on the trains isn't a construction project. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What is odd is that the B&M inverts built before Raptor don’t have quite the roar that raptor does. I don’t think they would fill every invert but raptor with sand. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

All of the newer B&Ms don’t roar anymore, so is it possible that they’ve filled all of them with sand? Or have they perfected the track design to the point where it’s no longer necessary? Either way, I do miss that roar!

You could be right. That’s the case with Leviathan. I do think that Banshee’s trains are a bit lighter due to the new design, so that could be a reason it is quieter. The only invert I know of that is filled with sand is Talon at Dorney.

That scheme looks awesome from that angle. I wonder if it’ll be for just this year, or permanently.

I doubt that the sound the track makes when tapped on would be considered proprietary. Regardless, I’m not trying to break any rules. Just sharing what I know.

You’re correct, 100% is a bit overkill. I’ve only been able to reach the sections of track at the bottom of the pretzel loop and the bottom of the vertical loop that goes over the lift hill. I don’t have any other B&Ms to base my inference on, however I just assumed based on the sound of the track that it was hollow. 100% is a bit of a stretch, however I’m fairly certain it is hollow... but hey, I’m not an engineer and I didn’t build the ride, so who knows?

No, and I hope I never have to. (Knock on steel)
