There is a thread on here about Ferrari World. It's in Non-Orlando Parks I believe.

thanks

Hey Disney fan- great pictures! On that topmost picture, where the heck were you when you were taking the picture to get that angle?! I thought the Crown Colony Restaurant was the only good view- someone fill me in!

What picture? All the track pictures were taken from the train!

Here are a couple of pics from today...nothing much. Didn't feel like a train ride, it was really crowded, or the Crown Colony balcony after riding all the coasters and a slice of Pumpkin Cheesecake.

An over-the-wall update from Busch Garden's blog:

Psst…hey coaster fanatics: Cheetah Hunt construction has now gone vertical! This marks the beginning of a busy building schedule that will continue through the new year.

Here’s an insider look at exactly what’s happening behind those construction walls:

The first columns have been set for the main brake run:

Columns and track will continue to be set in the direction of travel through the "Windcatcher Tower":

"Windcatcher Tower." I wonder if that's the name of the launch tower.

I was also able to see the remainder of the track on a lot on McKinley Drive.

EDIT: As I was on the train passing the old water portion of Rhino Rally, I saw stumps for the frame of the coaster all along the river, so it'll take the same path the Rhino Rally jeeps took in the water.

Great pics Emily! Thanks for sharing. :thumbs: :rep:

Looks like I'll be back sooner than I thought- this Friday! Hopefully there will be some new stuff up!

Oh yeah I would imagine there will be a lot of progress made within the station itself and the initial launch by the time you get there.

Not much happened today. Workers were finishing up drive tires (pinch wheels) to the transfer track. Tomorrow we'll probably see launch track for the first launch being erected. Two days ago they completed all the station track.

Something new to report on...

New track was delivered today and work is finally picking up pace again in the water portion. The rebar for the pathway bridge is down...now just waiting for concrete.

Again not much but, here are some pics from this morning.
Really hate they walled off the second floor of the Crown Colony.
