Hope it will be as good as boosterbikes (coaster on the background, never ridden myself).
Is there already a layout?

Yes, there is a layout. Only Toverland's employees know it though.
I will be going there when the coaster opens. I just have to. :D

I think they would have a layout before they cleared the area.

I hope it's so cool that my mom and dad will HAVE tot ake me there! That would be great, although Expedition Geforce has kinda done that...

Can't wait to see a layout sometime.

Hmm.... This coaster is 1 foot taller then Renegade, and about 80 feet longer. Maey it's the same thing,:durh .

It looks awsome though! I want to ride Booster Bike alot! Mabey i'll have to stop here on my visit,:iyes . Mabey in 2009 my mom will take me. Then I could drive on the Autobahn! I'd be 16 then. Man, time flies...

I'd love to go to Holland! It looks really cool there. I need to ride Expedition Geforce, and Goliath. Along with "Troy" here...

BTW- Jogumpie, did some park over there get a new ride? Something in my mind says there is, but I don't think so...

EDIT- Woah, Robin Hood looks like it needs a retrack! Woah! Xpress is awsome! It's that one ride CC10 made, but with cooler colors! w00t!

Sorry i'm so hyper. I just took a nap and had a Percaset (medicine for pain that makes you really hyper! It's not my fault, blame the medicine! Sorry again...

EDIT- Woah Robin Hood looks like it needs a retrack! WOAH:eek ! Xpress is that one coaster CC10 made, but with cooler colors! w00t! Oh, and this coaster is coming along great, i'm actually really amped up for it!

EDIT- Sorry for being really hyper. I just took a nap, and had a Percaset (medicine for pain that also makes you really hyper! Sorry again...:blink: (what happened to this smily? It used to be everywhere on SSC?)

GCI's Troy division is out of wood. Because of the heavy rain in Norway, import of yellow pine wood has been delayed.
