Beast1979 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 It sure is taking them a long time to get the track in the air, a lot longer than yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigellinus Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I just looked at the webcam and still no new piece of track!! Let's hope this is NOT a common theme of this track rigging!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast1979 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 They moved the track and got it ready to lift, and they left it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear the Offseason Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I think that whole time we thought they wearn't doing anything they were actually putting up a piece of track. It looks like it. Half of it is off the webcam but then you see it come on at the top. So ,aybe thats what took so long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beast1979 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 I think the track that they're putting in now is the only track they've put in today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fear the Offseason Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Well I don't know but right now the webcam keeps changing positions. It goes to the splashdown and then it shows out in the trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rcfreak339 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Man this Webcam is entertaining! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fear the Offseason Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Like I said the piece they are puuting in right now is the third piece! It even proves it when the webcam cycles to the splashdown. You can see that one piece is already in place and the other one is still out of position.

masonguy21 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 You think this webcam is entertaining, you should have been at the park today! I was working our companys photo stand down by the international showplace, and every 15 minutes we are supposed to go outside and hold this sign telling people to view their photos. Usually it's a drag and I hate doing it but watching all the progress in the construction site made it awesome. I would come out with a mind set of staying out there for 10 minutes with this sign and 30 minutes later I would finally brake free from my trance and look at my watch to see how much time had passed. It was awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
