Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)

Yeah I am not saying you will get wet just worried about the track getting really dirty and black looking over time because of the water. -
Diamondback Construction Thread (Updated 3-19-09)
Ohiocoasterman replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
Just thinking alittle bit about the splashdown. I am wondering how loud that will be in the back of the train also being in that area. I wonder if it will vibrate the train at all as well. Sooooo many questions I need to ride it One other thing though and I think it will suck but I know Maverick has the water bombs and the water goes up and then comes back down and hits the track. Now it does it over and over and by the end of the season the track looks dirty because of the water and everything going onto it. I am sure this might happen because it looks like it will hit the track when it goes down back into the pool. It will look dirty a bit but it should be fine -

I think they are testing tonight I was watching the cam and in the very back I think where the on ride photo is going to be taken I say a bright white flash then went away. I am not sure but here are some of the new lights around the splashdown. It also looks like the pool is done being filled -

Great pictures looking at them filling up the splash pool reminds me of when we fill up our pool for the year and it takes like one whole day to do it and that excitement builds until you can go in it. Unlike going in it on the coaster you can't wait to ride -

Is it raining right now on the web cam or is that just fog? I checked the radar and there is nothing in the area yet. -

Here is something I found for Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point I am also wondering how lets just will say one did fail. I know the lap bars on Dragster have a fail safe hydraulic restraints. There are two for each lap bar. So if one fails there is still that one on the other side working. I know Dragster is different from this coaster but I am just wondering about what Diamondback will use. Here is a picture I found showing Top Thrill Dragster's lap bar, Two simple hydraulic valves ensure that riders of Top Thrill Dragster are held safely and securely in place by a padded lap bar. The accumulator is physically attached to the cylinder, and each lap bar uses two of these circuits — one for redundancy. I found this on this site, http://www.hydraulicspneumatics.com/200/Is...alse/9810/Issue -
