Where the heck is this track going?

Look at this : http://www.cpthrillology.com/images/16marinaclose.jpg

It looks as though the track is going into an inversion!

Nope... just an illusion created by the twisting track.

I dunno, this doesn't look like it came from the twists...

I just don't see it going into an inversion at the top. But that pic makes it look as though it's as big as MF!

Oh yeah, if there's bugs on your shirt, you had a good ride.

Thank you Jeff for your work to make and run this site!

It is the twists, look at some Wicked Twister pictures, has the same effect.

MiA Jon, look at this picture: http://www.cpthrillology.com/images/16causeway.jpg

You can the twist on the left side of the tower.

Considering that "Dragster" is much further away from the camera that MF, I'd say that it is in fact taller than MF. Before they added the last two pieces to the best portion of the tower it was around 265, so I'd guess that it's somewhere around 325 ft. now.

If you look at pictures of xcellerator, it has the same sort of "lean" from the towers as you see on #16.

Thanx guys.

I agree with CP Bound that i think that #16 has surpassed MF in height. This may sound stupid but i dont think its

Also do I, somewhere is the range of 325.

Ditto. This won't top 400'.

I think you are right snoopy, because I think each section is 60 feet, which would make it about 325 feet

No, Snoopy is saying that it won't top 400 ft. at all, not just now. He'll be in for a nice surprise, I guess. There are 3 more catwalks to be put on the tower, and they each are around 55 feet away from each other. It will definitely top 400 ft.
