Now that we have a Corckscrew going up, I can safely say, that you will be going over the hill towards the Corckscrew.

So this will PROBABLY be the end section of the ride.

http://pointbuzz.com/project2007mv0826.htm

another inversion is in the making Im assuming...look at its apex.
is that what its called :? :lol:

however, theyve finished the corkscrew, made another turn & starting the next element.

....& I actually think due to the angle of the inversion goin up, that its traveling twords the hill...?....I could also safely say that that could be wrong.

Look at the lift into the corkscrew in this picture

Whoops. Go the the 4th one down:

http://pointbuzz.com/project2007mv0826.htm

It looks like there's a weird bump + expansion in the the track. Is that because of the support, the camera or what?

IT almost looks like the inversion to the left of the corcksrcrew will go over the corckscrew and come back in through it according to the footers.
