hahah love the topic, but there aren't any overbanks like Millennium Force has, just s-curve hills! Btw what is this outer winged seat business they are talking about?

Look at the train, the two seats in the middle have a floor and  the outer seats are floorless.

Why only 3400'? Hershey always makes their rides short. Storm Runner 2600, Great Bear 2800... Farenheit under 3000.

Looks cool though... Can't hate a hyper!

I guess this is the new era of hyper coasters. I just hope the lift hill isn't as fast as I305 because you loose so much of the acceleration feeling going down the first drop when you are already half the top speed!

idk if it is just the video, but from what I can see the harness is the usual OTSR minus the shoulder/straps part. That would be cool!

You speed along the "bright yellow track".
Too expensive to render it in yellow?

Looks fun...I like the lift hill over the lake.

That looks like a very smooth ride. Can't wait for this ride to open, even if I get to Hershey once every few years :/

if this picture is accurate, then Skyrush might be a close competitor to Millennium Force for me.


There are no "sick" overbanks though -__-

Im only 75% i am getting on this in 2012. Hershey is probably the easiest family sell.

I'm 100% I'll be there next year. Plus I need the Fahrenheit credit and Wildcat with MF trains.
