Does anyone know where GCI's manufacturing plant is?

 

[Thomas]

Somewhere with trees nearby, I'd imagine.

Does anyone know where GCI's manufacturing plant is?

Sunbury, PA about an hour north of Hersheypark.

Do they give tours ?

The plans stated that the clearing and concrete demolition start this month. I'm hopeful for an early opening.

Timeline should line up with every other coaster the park has gotten in the past couple years. I'd expect land clearing to start mid-summer and vertical construction to start come Howl O Scream.

Hmmmm... I'm sensing a sort of disconnect here...

I just stopped by and rode that last night(It's been on my to do list). It's a very pleasant coaster. It has lots of floater air and rides really smooth. The one thing that bothers me is the way that the brake run is banked to the left. Its a real silly thing and very much a nit pick, but I still wonder why it's like that.

A bit late to the party here, but the brake runs on recent GCIs are tilted to assist with correctly aligning the magnetic brake fins. Kind of a cheater's way to do it but it works for them so I would expect to see it on their future rides as well.

There are ribbons around trees now.

The youtube comments on my POV are nothing but people whining about this coaster. It's really sad actually. Haters gonna hate I guess.

 

[Mushroom]

*HatRs.

There are ribbons around trees now.

To make sure Johnny comes home from the War?

 

[The Hessian]

I don't believe they are yellow ribbons but pink or blue instead.

If someone wants to scrub through this video.

 

[GoHokies87]

[Zimmy]

[Luke]

Lots of ribbons around trees. Also, looks like they've made some cuts into the concert.

Any speculation on what the next "ride element" we get to vote on will be?

During the Pass Member Preview Day announcement I remember things like "what's going to go in the queue line, the name of the ride, etc." but they sort of stopped there.

 

[Thomas]

Maybe we'll get to pick the window trim color in the station

 

[redsoxfan787]

If I don't see "hinga-dinga-durgin" in the queue anywhere, I'll be utterly disappointed.

 

[Eric]

I want the trains to be lemon lime colored, and covered in cherry scented scratch and sniff. Also, there should be rumbling seats and on-board music(that we get to choose).
