STR webcam gone?

Dragster, Pagoda, and STR Cams are all down. On their site, it says they're down for maintainance.

I wonder whats going on that they don't want us to see? :)

We're installing that giant weather-proof dome you've all been wanting us to build. But seriously, folks...

The DragsterCam was upgraded yesterday and it's not uploading images. We're awaiting word from the manufacturer as to why that's happening.

The PagodaCam decided to stop transmitting last week. It's an internal issue that our IT dept. is working on.

The STRCam is off while we complete testing. When it was turned off the first time, it was off because of the painting.

Is that so we can't see the first boat bobbing upside down as it returns to the station? ;)

Good one Jugga - that made me spit my soda.

Not to mention the Great White Sharks jumping up and devouring test dummies.

^^^Awwww! No year round CP? You're teasing me! But good to hear that Dragster Cam has been upgraded. Will it be in HD or just rotating like the Diamonback cam at KI, or both? ;) Thanks for the update though, its good to know all the facts. Will STR be testing with the modified boats during opening weekend, or will it just be sitting idle, waiting for me to take pictures of it from the Frontierland trail?

Dragster cam is back up and it looks way better

Looks good Tony one question I have is what was update on the cam? I see the image looks better is it now more high def?

It does look better. It does look a little smaller however.

Yeah, the field of vision is slightly smaller, but the lens quality is much better. It's similar to the two other cams we have, but this one has an upgraded lens. Not sure what the exact tech specs are.

Now that you mention it Tony, I think I see 4 Dragster Trains on the track now. :)

Looks really good.

Are the other 2 cameras getting this upgrade as well?

Lets see, 4-6=2.......I'm still sensing a problem here. ;)

4-6= -2.... sensing a problem with math... (jk, i see what you mean...)

Whats going to suck is that its raining most of this week. That will slow down the time as well...

Wish the Pagoda Cam was still working. Park looks super flooded.

We just got a lot of rain all at once. I think the tornado warning expired but the sirens are still going off.

EDIT: First tornado warning expired but now we are on to your 2nd.

they should have a Challenge Park Cam!

Maybe they could point it at Magnum. :)

Careful.. people might report smoke/fire coming out of the tunnels.

Hahaha. I second the Challenge Park cam suggestion. The Dragster cam produced some awesome pictures while the storms were rolling through last evening.
