Haha oh don’t worry. If I found them I’d just have a nice little secret to keep for myself ;)

But I'm expecting a fully detailed report (without pics) that includes a full list of track measurements, how many supports it'll have, etc

Ew. Hopefully not. Keep it simple. Black supports & silver/steel colored track. Let the trains (and any lighting package, on/off ride) be the "pop of color".

So I guess the track and supports are black huh? I guess that’s what the neighbors would want.

Considering those people chose to live next to an active movie studio & theme park, it always irritates me that they feel the need to dictate what Universal does.

I'm sure plenty of people would gladly take up residence next door.

Isn’t Don’s original Charger Black and Silver? Might be a nod to that, if intentional.

Yup--with the silver used for the bumper, the wheels, the supercharger, and I think for the supports of the windows and chassis.

Didn't know they had a choice in the design. But I guess my question is why do people care what color the tracks are? I ride the ride for the experience, not the color of the track. Same thing happened when they repainted Tatsu at SFMM. People hated it. But the ride did not change. Just me maybe that doesn't care.

No offense, but you don't have to be so condescending about it. All @Freak did was make a casual comment about the color of the track. And if you don't care, that's cool, but just because you don't care doesn't mean others aren't allowed to ponder the aesthetics of what this coaster can/will be, nor is anyone even arguing that it will diminish the actual ride experience.

Almost certainly soil retention and have nothing to do, as least not directly, with the coaster.

Track installation begins on Fast & Furious Coaster in Universal Studios Hollywood

The first track pieces have begun installation on the Fast & Furious Coaster, currently under construction at Universal Studios Hollywood. Currently, the track has only been installed in the purported coaster station; but the surrounding area has been preparing the hillside for beam support -

Does anyone else feel like the station support columns look like the ones you see in parking garages? I almost want to go put a different ride/attraction parking lot poster on each column (JAWS, KONG, BTTF, Jurassic, ET, Frankenstein etc) :lol:

Each switchback will take you to a different parking garage.. be sure to take a photo so you don't forget when it's time to leave!
