something i noticed about the coaster is that BM changed the lead in into the lift hill. Before, BM's lead ins would be very quick and sort of crazy. They kinda go from 0 to 55 degrees instantly. I like it though, and yes, it is a very random topic. This ride is going to be so damn fun, its unbelievable.

Weird track color changes, or an extremely weird shadow? So many colors. It's kinda weird.

And the lift hill...

Rides going up fast now, maybe 60% complete construction wise.

60% complete is pushing it mate [lol]

Looking on the webcam, all that you can see in the above photos is what is built, plus the splash-run. None of the stuff in between the first hill and the last two bunnyhills is built. Not to mention that no vertical construction has been done on the helix before the splash-run.

And, the thing you thought maybe track colour changes, is definitely your other suspision and is infact the case, it's the shadow of the very square/straight edged grey building behind the photo.

Looking good though! gonna have to try even harder to convince the missus to go with me to Ohio now!

Im seeing lots of weird figures showing up on the webcam. Any explainations? I swear i didn't edit these. Go look at the webcam and say if this starts happening. It only appeared for afew imgs.

Edit: now they arent showing up bcaus the pics keep changing unless you click on the links alot. Eventually they show up. or jsut watch the webcam.

I noticed this also... it's just some bugs that obviously have a nest near the cameras. I saw one of them clearly in the middle of the screen before.

^ B&M track peices dont look monstrous. They are. If you think thats big you should see the b&m dive machine tracks. (Ive ridden griffon a million times)
