IndyGuy4KI Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 We are close to being done decoding the 2014 attraction! With the announcement being made in just a few days, I think we need a new thread to talk about the construction progress as we see it develop over the next 6 to 8 months! We can chat about the progress and post pictures of construction updates we have taken at the park. (I will rename the thread once we know for sure what the name of the ride will be.) I will start out by posting a construction picture I took during the Coasting for Kids Event on 6/9/13 on the EF showing the footers! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thrill_Biscuit Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Cool! Will you try and get the exact settings each time, so we can see an amazing, progressive time-lapse? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XjoshhyX Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I wonder how often we will see updates on construction from Don on the PR front. CP did a great job of that with Gatekeeper. Made me feel like I was there daily almost to see the progress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
