    Any discussion that results in me looking at pictures of Nitro is one I am in favor of! And in saying that, I am on sound footing! Terpy, whose sign off line could be called a footer

don't worry guys "The final piece of track is expected to be installed this afternoon. You can watch this MOMENTOUS occasion live on the Diamondback webcam." ...... ya.... i hope there is video

Getting an image on the webcam just requires a little patience; one should assume its heavily bogged down. Sit on the page without manually refreshing and you should get the feed for a while....

that drop into the splashdown is longer and steeper than I thought it would be

Yeah I was thinking that too. It's going to be awesome. Can't wait to see the first run with the splashdown effect.

When ever I put something together I always have a few pieces left over.....Hope the DB crew didn't have that problem.

i've been sitting on the page for about an hour

It's so awesome to see the whole track portion of the ride done.

But I have a question....How do you post pictures? Like of the webcam shots.

Isn't it weird that two years ago from now track was just showing up in the parking lot for the new coaster of that year, and vertical construction wasn't even started? I know Firehawk is over 1,000ft. shorter, way less tall, in an easier to build land area, and they had til' May... but I find it weird (in a good way) that the new coaster for this year is now complete (track work) and at this same point of two years ago little construction had been done on Firehawk...

^ set up an account on photobucket. Download your photo threre and then copy the html into your post here. When you get onto photobucket you'll understand. They make it pretty easy

And, today, Diamondback was born! Feels so good to finally see it complete!

I thought I heard they've laced the supports with a slow working acid. Jackson will be the test subject as I believe he has been recorded as hugging one of the supports last season. We'll watch. And learn. :P

HA HA HA!!!!!

Don't Worry, I'll check to make sure it's safe. I WONT climb it, and it WONT be during KIC day, you can bet on that!

Don't worry, I'm sure Don will pass out special Diamondback branded straight jackets for all of us! That would be an odd thing to see on the webcam!

Well guys I've been lurking for most of the winter but I had to come out and say "Hooray!!!" that Diamondback is finally done! Is it April yet?
