I thought it was much more pronounced in your other video. should still be identical to the one we had before.

MDMC01 Posted August 14, 2019 Share Posted August 14, 2019 Well, guys and gals, this. is. IT! 1 more day until we know everything (well, at least the main details). It's been a crazy fun ride, even with the bumps in the road. I'd like to give a shoutout to @collin.klopfsteinand @Hawaiian Coasters 325 for keeping us engaged with CSF track photos and renderings/mockups of the new ride (also @DustinTheNow and @Magenta Lizard for their contributions ). As I said before, I'm really excited about this thing and I think it'll be really, really cool. For those who attend the announcement, have a blast and drink plenty of water (I heard it's supposed to be humid tomorrow); I'll hear about it in the morning on the interwebs. Finally, I leave you with some hype music: 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And my apologies if I missed anyone else; a lot of us contributed in valuable ways! And I also have to say thanks to Six and his pilot because theirs were the first aerial pictures I saw and really could see the layout and get a great understanding of the whole area. Thanks also to Captain Nemo for a huge portfolio of high definition photography at KI as well as at CSF. Thanks to all those who provided great shots of the area from the Eiffel Tower and for those who spent the countless trips to CSF to keep us updated on the track progress.

No offense intended. Lol. Of course. I’m not offended in any way. I was just explaining that the heights of each element are correct according to the blueprint. The Brake Run is 825.7 ft high MSL, and the Hive Dive is 835.7 ft MSL. (The station base is 740 ft MSL for comparison). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melody Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Does anyone think tomorrow morning they'll have one final clue for the news media? Heck! Maybe tomorrow will be WCPO's turn. Maybe John Matarese going? 100% because we haven't seen what's in the 3rd box by the fence. Didn't John Matarese say he was supposed to go Monday and had breaking news instead? So if not him and channel 9 then maybe FOX 19 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just poured through the sitemap and there is nothing there, they are definately keeping it unpublished until after the announcement I did come across a page for VIP tours. Has this been a thing? ****Edited**** I just looked through the last couple of pages and noticed this!!! https://bit.ly/1e1EYJv 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just more credence to the 285’/301’ theory. A bigger drop is more important than height as far as ride experience is concerned anyway. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
