Maverick44 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 They are either done for the day or about to move into a new position. 3
Maverick44 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 T-Bone is on the move and lots of workers are now under the wave turn. We may see the approach to the air time hill done today. I however doubt they will start anything this late thought. 3
TheFloppyDisc Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 I would imagine they didn't put the speed hill up before the wave-ish turn because the gap between those support beams is probably big enough to fit a piece of track through it with plenty of tolerance to not worry about it swinging into a support. 3

You are correct. Wave hill was up before the speed hill. 2
Born_in_'72 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Another reason to do the wave hill first is that if (God forbid) something were to go wrong and get dropped after the speed hill was in, now there are two pieces of track that are trashed.... 6
Maverick44 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 If my eyes are right I see T bone is up and I think more track is going in. 4
Maverick44 Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 Cleo is now on the close side of the wave hill. i think we will see the start of the air time hill tomorrow weather permitting. 3
ethancoaster Posted January 8, 2020 Posted January 8, 2020 That speed hill is the thing I envy the most for not being on Fury. That thing is going to be super cool. 5
STLcoasters33 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 My apologies if this isn’t down to the exact track piece, but we’re nearing the home stretch! (Photo originally taken from the King’s Island website) 18 1
Waltny Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 So they should be clear of the supports and can come in from The Racer side now hopefully without much issue and continue with the current pace. 3
flightoffear1996 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 May statement still stands. I think track work will be completed by the end of this month. 2

I'd say when they were starting they would pretty much do one piece per week. This is now like two elements per week! 2
Fishely Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Can anyone tell what they’re doing right now? I think I see some track by the crane. 2
Maverick44 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Looks like I see a support go the air time hill? I could be wrong the glare for me is bad behind my comp screen. 2
ThrillKingsFitzy Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 In the rendering, the train hauls over the big hill. I think you'll get some serious ejector on it. Unless it was sped up in the rendering, I think it may just be one of the strongest airtime moments. 2

Beast Night Rider Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Just watched them bring 2 support pieces back on The Racer side. Can’t wait to see the track come back on this side of the track. 2
Born_in_'72 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 T-Bone is on the move..... Headed up toward the brake run. 2
TheFloppyDisc Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 This might be a dumb question, but do we know if all the track is on site yet? 2
Maverick44 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Where did T-Bone even go? i saw it moving out near the break run and now he is gone lol 2

Maverick44 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Is that really him? Doesn't look like him lol 1
Kodistict Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 I think another piece of track is being installed! 3
Maverick44 Posted January 9, 2020 Posted January 9, 2020 Yes, Track is going in under wave hill. Might be starting to go up hill 3
