evidence that the track laid within the past four days that this ride will be going upside down....
looks like a cross between a corkscrew and barrel roll...
sorry to all those fans who didn't want OTSR
I don't post here often, but for goodness sake check the other topics that have already discussed this multiple times.

Almost every roller coaster with inversions has over the shoulder restraints. What good reason do we have to assume this ride will have lap bars? The only chain I can recall removing their shoulder restraints on has been Paramount and that was for The Outer Limits rides alone. I would love to see lap bars on this thing, but it's highly unlikely. The only hope I have is that the new restraints will be more comfortable than Arrow and B&M coasters.
I thought people said that Intamin OTSR's were comfortable?

Six Flags America replaced the OTSR's with lap bars on Joker's Jinx.

Mr. Freeze is another coaster that has a lap bar with an inversion. There are quite a few actually.

Does it make you guys feel cool to tell this guy 40 times that there have been other posts about this; maybe he felt like creating his own. Opening a new thread caused more people to view his.

I am suprised that there hasn't been an update about the corkscrew.. Hmmm i thought that it was not supose to go upside down... I thought it was a stupid idea... so i was told from many. lol
Busy I guess. What i'm wondering is where are the picture updates. the last one was viewing the hill.
He could possibly be at the park after work, taking pictures?
