It's not how high or how fast you build the roller coaster it's how smooth you build it!

Out of many many coasters, I don't think a single B&M was delayed, so it will be open.

Yes, it makes sense, waste a day and cut school to go to the park for them to tell you you may not enter. Media Day is for media, don't forget it. If you're not invited, you're not going.

The only people allowed in the park on April 29 are people with media passes. Unless you have one your not getting in.

Went to go and take a look at the progress and not much has changed from the last update. The trains are in the transfer shed and looks like they have tested because there are water dummies on one of the trains. The station still needs some work as well. You guys can all see for yourselves here: http://groups.msn.com/SixFlagsGreatAmer ... snw?Page=1

Awsome pics man. I cant tell how the transfer track is going to be moved so the thrains can be put on the main track. I know how other coasters work like RB work but I I dont see any motors there or a some kind of chain.

Blinkcoaster, the track inbetween the Transfer shed in the station will move back and forth to get the trains on and off the track. Basically exactly like Raging Bull and Iron Wolf.Everything looks like its going well though and it looks as if it will be open on time! Hopefully this snow today doesn't cause that much of a problem since its suppose to melt by tomorrow.26 more days!! :)
Go Bulls!
