Starting in August 2005 weekly shipments of parts will be leaving the northern German harbor of Bremerhaven and traveling across the Atlantic. 80 containers total will be needed.

I believe Intamin is part of the project also. I also believe it will be in the spot where Viper once was. No name was given to the coaster yet or how tall or fast it will be. I'm sure the name will be released in August or September.
I don't know ALL the Facts!!!!!! :wink:

There is a good chance this won't be rough. The company making it also made Balder and Collosos, two of the smoothest wooden roller coasters there are. They don't build the track onsite, instead they prefabricate it, which is what happens on every steel coaster, and then the track parts are shipped to the site.

I'm expecting great things out of this coaster :)

No, something tells me it will be tall though, possibly 200-250ft.
