yeah, at this rate, it looks like they could open it up a whole month earlier than the originally expected release date. But then again. They haven't finished building the station, que, extra paths, and any extra scenery.

And don't forget they have to test it.

they usually test while they're building the scenery and que, that's what they did for Xcelerator, anyways.

If they need to build any scenery in the area of the track I highly doubt they would be testing it at the same time, the coaster looks so close to the ground a some points

[lol] Well, they don't test and build all at the same time. On some days, they'll do tests, on other days, they'll build the que. They usually test on the off days. And from what it looks like, Silver Bullet workers have several days off during the week. So ride inspectors and junk could test it during that time.

it looks really really cramped, but oh well, it still looks like a good coaster. Can't wait till opening day/soft opening.

from the low hieght of the elements it looks like the trains is going to go pretty fast through the course.
And with the track getting close to being finished the ride is looking a little short imo. But still looks fun heh
