Causeway shot

i really wanted to see how this thing looks from the cause way in the CP skyline....i was wondering if anybody took some pictures from the causeway...or if anybody can take some pics from the causeway....that would be awesome. I really want to see it from that veiw.

------------------
Guess who's back....back again ;)

I might be going tomorrow (friday) and i'll see if its clear enough outside to get a decent shot. I was there last Friday and I dont think it was very visable yet but that was just from the parking lot. It kinda hid behind PT. I'll see what I can get.

It may be a picture from the causeway in this group of pictures...

Id it just me?...Or does the tower in that pic look VERY short!!!! They have a long way to go if they want to get to 400 feet!

Yea the tower does look kind of short

Im might be going on Fri., but I will be going on Sat. for sure.

"Wait, connect the oil return line to the turbo!"

yeah, at the angle of it, it looks about 180 (a little shorter than Magnum). Oh well, they still have plenty of time, and it doesn't look like they're quitting on the tower yet.

That is one erie (no pun intended) photo...

Actually, from that photo, the tower is at least more than 145 ft. tall. How do I know? Because Mantis is 145 ft. tall and you can obviously see that the tower is above that. My best guess: about 170 ft.

MANTIS ROCKS 2002

Mantis is also closer to the camera in that shot so it would make the towers a little smaller.

It's not that tall! I mean c'mon it hasn't even been annouced and vertical construction is less than a month in (subtracting 3 days a week for HW's)...pfff it's tiny!

Really people, it's pretty tall considering the circumstances.

as long as it keeps getting taller....its all good :)

Wouldn't that make the new ride APPEAR smaller?

That's what I meant...comparing it to Mantis, it's even taller than the big bug even though it's much further away. It appears smaller because of the distance between the two, yet its much taller.

If you look at the tower while on Magnum, it look about 200ft tall. The image posted is deceiving because it was taken looking up at a perspective to everything

Look at it this way. "Dragster" and PT are roughly at the same distance from the camera there, they are basically in line with each other and "Dragster" appears to be about 2/3 the height of PT. Which would be about 200 feet.

Welcome back Magnum riders how was your ride?
