    We did not mention all the statistics during the announcement because statistics are not what make a roller coaster great; it's the ride experience it delivers that makes it great.

  • It's good to see me, isn't it? No need to respond! That was rhetorical. Under 30 days until Banshee makes its public debut! We can't wait for you to come out and experience this ride.

    We have guests that are more excited about our live shows than our roller coasters, that visit the park specifically for the shows. For these guests, the Cirque Imagine announcement was as exciting as

Vortex Lover wasn't asking how he did it. Or at least I don't think he/she was. Hard to tell with the lack of grammar.

And he said he does the pictures in Photoshop.

So, I'm sure I wasn't the only one who has noticed this lately but it seems that the area I have circled below is where they are keeping some of the supports and track until their time of use....

That's actually where they stored supports for Diamondback during the 2008 season, too. Must be easy to access. Either that, or it's one of the few places on park property that's relatively flat and isn't within guest reach. Or maybe both?

On a similar note, I noticed on Sunday that part of the parking lot to the west of the sign has been blocked off. I wonder if that's a temporary drop-off location for track and supports.

I'd think that they wouldn't need to store shipments in the parking lot because the only time they're working is during the week when construction is going on, and then they could just bring the trucks into the park. Of course, I've never built a roller coaster, and seeing how past roller coasters have been built, you're probably right.

King Cobra lived there for a while, as well as Scooby's Ghoster Coaster.

Magicians never revile their secrets.

Technically speaking, that is indeed correct according to Dictionary.com. It's probably not what you meant to say, but it is correct nonetheless. :)

However, they also never speak of their secrets non-abusively, either.

^^ I'm laughing because I assume you're commenting on the typo of the word "revile".

An update

from yours truly.

So they have just about installed all the visible track on site. Wonder when the next big shippment will arrive? Cant wait to see the first loop around the lift go up.

The station on Diamondback in that rendering looks exactly like RCT3 walls...

Woops, darn you autocorrect

It's Photoshop, nothing special. Just removing the color. I do appreciate the time he takes to do it though.

I just want to say thank you again for making these awesome pictures; it's been really cool to see Banshee grow both on the rendering (through the addition of color) and in real life! :D

Dittos from me!!!

I loved when TOPGUN1993 used to post pictures of Son of Beast's demoltion and pictures for the "flashback" thread. I wish he still posted pictures! :)

I miss standbyme's thread on old pictures overlapped w/ new pictures taken from roughly the same spot and in the same direction. That is the thread that hooked me into this site, I wish he was still around.

I really wish they would've put a tunnel or two on the ride. I could picture one at the bottom of the first drop with fog machines and purple lights shining in it at night.

I vaguely remember them auctioning the first ride on Diamondback off for charity. I'd assume Banshee will be the same.

How do you be one of the first persons to ride Banshee?

Work for the park, B&M, or Adena.
