Wow... that lift really looks to be insane. Great pics Brian! :thumbs:

It cooooould be fans.

Again, you succeed at making me feel quite foolish. That would make tons more sense, and I honestly hadn't even considered it.

Are you sure those are tvs? My first impression was they were the big fans that are in most of the outdoor queue areas, like in twister.

Yeah, Briman just told me that about three posts up. I hadn't even considered that possibility, but now that I think about it, those are almost definitely fans. I'm sure that if there are TV's present, they will be LCD's.

Just trying to give other options. Apologies.

The last piece should be in place by tomorrow. So I expect test runs by friday next week.

 

[moviefreak1416]

does anybody know what the deal is about the cars? if they are on site and ready to be put on the track?

 

[Disneyhead]

I don't really have a clue. But I can't imagine that the cars would'nt be on sight.

 

[Sledge]

Supposedly they put the last piece in tonight.

 

[Beachgurl]

Drove by this morning... and yeah it looks like all the pieces are in. I'll try to snap a few pics on my lunch break if you guys haven't already seen it before then.

 

[DisneyFanKevin]

I'm going into work early so hopefully I can get some pics too.

This is going to be great. If tests begin next week than they are keeping up with Manta. It will be good to have another thrill ride at Studios.

Jebus, I haven't checked this thread in a while and missed the completion. The lift looks so majestic!

Mookie from IOAC has a video up with footage of the last piece being put in.

I'm almost positive there is at least one car on property.

I'm almost positive there is at least one car on property.

From what i've seen and heard they are just bolting in the last lift piece and adding finishing touches to the track. As far as time goes, I go on the 29th of June so i'm hopeing for a opening then.

Nothing much has changed since the last piece was installed. They seemed to have worked on the top of the lift for most of the day. Also, some more merchandise has popped up.

 

[some random guy]

I believe they are on the cars, not the track.
