  1. Rumor is they were sent out messages from Don to remove them or he would have Facebook do it for him. Sorry for the double post, I though my other reply was further up the line but with the active posting Im not further down the list.
  2. Most of the track, if not all has had just one crane lifting the support. To watch it live in person is really amazing as they slide the track or support piece up and on better than some people do with their car in a parking space... Anyhow, I havent seen an SNFU's or readjustments and Ive seen quite a bit of it going in.
  3. You are probably close on ride time, but of course with loading/unloading the cycles will be close to that golden 3 min mark.
  4. It’s up and on. It is a long piece of track and takes us down to the treeline.
  5. Mystic’s lift hill is 109Ft and this hill is supposed to be 147ft. For closer comparisons in the park, it is 2 feet shorter than Vortex and 12 feet less than Banshee.
  6. I’d call it 18% grey due to its ability to shift, picking up light contamination under most lighting conditions. That and trying to keep Orion’s track the correct blue against any sky is a pain to deal with also.
  7. I though I posted here, my apologies as must have missed with expanding my avenues recently.
  8. Driving around town this morning and stopped in to see if it’s any better on the ground. The sun just burst through the clouds but it’s at least 30 mins or so before I can see back there.
  9. It’s not the peak, it is the other side of the peak. Think of it like the lifthill where it spans the peak via the two supports.
  10. Grabbed two from out front in the drop off parking lot. It looks like it’s going to be coming straight at the gate and therefor I Street.
  11. I got the piece going up and on. Update incoming... @Enchanted Voyage Lover Large Marge sent me.
  12. I believe the bsbmx or someone else that seemed to know how to accurate read them said they didn’t see a trim on the blueprints. I have a set and I’ll look to see now that we are quite sure there are trims, and where they are.
  13. I suppose if you are pixel peeping on a computer it wouldn’t be. I shot these, did a quick import to the phone with minor adjustments and posted. So I didn’t get too much time to examine, so there is that. As for if if they are 100% trims, Id hedge 90% sure they are. I got some stuff to get done and I’m sure I can go get another angle to make sure.
  14. Looking at the original file, he may be right. You will feel it heavily in the front if it’s like i305 trim on the airtime hill and may kill some serious air there. I expected them to burn off the speed in the helix as it seems to be the B&M way. Somewhat sad faced I also want to add how crazy it is that @Gplez90 was able to see that.
  15. Well, missed that call. They must have rushed back from lunch as I saw them leave... It is almost near impossible to see from the drop off parking lot. Look far bottom left in the second image.
  16. They just left for lunch. 145ish is my guess for track going skyward.
  17. It can be seen, I stand corrected once again.... Middle of the hills barely jutting above the tree line. I am surprised at where this is in relationship to the second hill. I think the perspective really through me off at first as I though it would be seen toward the beginning of what we can see of the wave turn which should put the helix to the right of the drop and maybe even the lift from this angle.
  18. There is nothing new there, I jumped the gun. Sometimes that webcam really messes with the eyes and then you think you see something in this jumble of track and crane booms that isn’t there. Everything that I can see is current out of place and MUCH further toward the lifthill than it looks on the webcam. I have to admit I’m confused on where this piece is going to actually jut up from tree line at. I hang my head in shame....
  19. It’s still below the tree line... I take it back. It’s perfectly lined up with a wave turn support from my usual vantage point.
  20. The other posts have since been deleted. I wont say exactly, but if you look at the webcam and google maps you will be able to find it and even go there as it is a public space. With that said, I drive in and out of this area, I do not hang out or even get out of my car when I do go over there.
  21. This thing is burning like a dumpster fire out of control on the Facebook groups.
  22. I originally didnt think there would be an opening in the tree line to get this without being unethical or straight up tresspass, but I didnt even have to get out of the car or leave the street. I have a shot of the spike of the beginning of the airtime hill but I have to heavily crop it to show it. Ill just wait for it to get over the tree line.
