Regardless of Alvey's speculation, the decision to put it in Canada had to have been made months ago or Keith wouldn't have had enough time to make an animation. Those things take time and he animates the park as well so...

I really want to see what he said... I wonder if it was babble or actual thought.

Anyone who comes up for a road trip is invited to my place for drinks, and bbq.

The first drop with these resatraints is money! Anyone think the turnaround looks like the dive loop right after the drop on drachen fire?

You scare me, that's what I thought too...

Keith does an amazing job on the animations. I am sure he was pissed that this ride was approximately 1:20 seconds so he couldn't make more dough off it!

Very good point Clint.  With that said, I'd now be curious to know how the application he uses works.  The ride itself could perhaps be in a separate layer or something.  Who knows (I guess other than Keith lol).

I'm not going to bother digging through all of the TPR threads but even without reading that, the first thing that went through my mind was Knotts when you consider what all of the coasters other CF parks currently have.

I guess with as crazy as many of us think this is, CP also has Magnum and MF in the same park but I think the argument is more that these are closer in size and style.  Well, plus they are both B&M.

And Magnum is 11 years older than Millennium Force.

By the way, Keith uses 3D Studio Max for his animations.

So it's been what...3 days now. I still don't really know what to think of Leviathan. I don't think it will be bad...but I wish B&M did more with it.

^ Hater!

2012 will include some Dragon Mt... a little Thunder Run... a Slew of Leviathan... and last but not least several fast paced Vortex rides. I can envision it now. Ohh and Behemoth TOTALLY redeeming itself. (and no La Ronde visit)

I love seeing the old school arrow track in the background sporting the huge gaps between each track tie lol

This could be awesome.

Could not do a quick post from my mobile... #1 if you lived here bars would have been legally yours to attend for 2 years already. #2 had our boy last night (on shoes b-day) ;) #3 total hospital bill.... Zero dollars, and zero cents. Haha

Thank you 7 lb. 12 oz. They thought it would be more than 10. At least they were right about it being a boy. That would have been a shock.
