Notice how the train is cloned and it captured the Water splash. this is pretty much the coolest google earth coaster I've seen!
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Wait! Look carefully at that pic! What do you notice about the two trains navigating the track?

When you see it...

ugh... dammit, I would fail that bad...

Anyway, the water feature would be so much more awesome if the track didn't cut the water off where it would be the highest.

Honestly, SheiKra is so much more interactive with the GP than Griffon is.
Oh, were you expecting something here?

You can see on the exit of the 2nd immel where the distortion in the pic begins. Or does Griffon jump over that gap?
