That could explain that new jetty that was built.

My concern is if anything is changed to the track, what’s the regulation with how many test runs are required?

This coaster has been testing trains since February.

I wouldn't worry. There's a difference between acceptance testing and the cycle "testing" required for each train to get ridership. They won't be re-starting a process that will take months to complete.

Sounds like the figure eight was taking the turns too aggressively and wearing down the wheels too quickly

That's just my hunch

My guess is "Welcome to the Jungle" = The Forbidden Forest section of the ride. Most people have been saying the forbidden forest doesn't really start until the drop track building. So I'm thinking it has something to do with the force of the drop track on one of the ride vehicle components.

Tell you what though, 16 days does not seem like a whole bunch of time to "beef up" 10 or 12 trains and thoroughly test them. But i have faith.

Or maybe there's nothing wrong, and it's a conspiracy to quell any crowds looking for soft opens. Not to be too "tinfoil hat" or anything :lol:

I don't know, but if this is America's first true drop track, then kinda makes sense that the trouble could come from true drop track.

I plan on being on wall watch on Thursday and Friday. Even if they don't take em down, I haven't been in a few months because of work, so it'll be nice to see all of the changes in person.
