^I wouldn't mind.

Outlaw Run's construction is really hard to follow. The best you're going to get is from Google, and those are hard to date. Form the looks of it, they've really have done a lot and are building very quickly. I heard from a TPR that they should be testing by late December-early January.

EDIT: v In your face, disbelievers.

Who thinks that Outlaw Run is a true woodie? I believe it is, seeing as how it only has topper track to smooth it out a bit. Iron Rattler and Texas Giant both have completely iron railings, and even their braces!

Outlaw Run is considered a woodie while the Texas Giant and the Iron Rattler are Hybrids/Steel coasters. Since OR only uses topper track it is fine but since TG and IR use steel track with wooden supports they are not true woodies. The Texas Giant was voted one of the best steel coasters in the states so I'd say this is the final verdict.

Looks like all the track is now in place. All that is needed to to get the mechanics installed on some parts (chains, tires, etc.) and it'll be runnable, atleast in a way.

Out of all the photos, this one was the craziest:



I can't wait to ride it next year, as my family were ready planning on taking a vacation to Branson before his was announced. What luck!

Notice they said the chain wouldn't be installed until after Christmas. Looks like no early testing for us.

Oh, how I would love to ride that! Too bad I live in Baltimore and won't be going any time soon.

Best animation ever. Period.



Anyway, I'm glad to say I only live 3 hours from this. I'm heading out in late November to see how construction is going. I can't wait for next year!

Interesting fact, according to a TPR post: apparently Outlaw Run's double barrel roll's rotation is centered around the rider's head, not the heart.

Headlining?
