Two things:

- One: I think the new track piece is probably not the outerbank, but the transition from traveling vertically up the tower to the more horizontal outerbank. As killer as a 90 degree bank would be, I’m expecting something closer to 60 for the orbit at the top of the tower.

- Two: In the background of some of the track pictures you can see the second pieces of the station tracks, which have two sets of contacts on them for cars, which means this is likely going to be running five car trains, so 20 riders per train.

Ah you know I saw a different angle of that track that I hadn't seen, its definitely where the spire would start after it was vertical like you said. Track is much longer than the GADV instagram post made it seem..

I saw some speculation this was a transition piece between the vertical ascent and the more horizontal "orbit" around the tower, and I just don't see it based on how long the trains are. Much more likely IMO that it's at the very top of the tower.

That's about one of the only things I can think about that would make sense. A Cheetah Hunt like slow top of the track movement. I would actually like something like that at the top of the tower over a very heavy outward baked turn. Almost would make it like a drop tower like anticipation.

We don't expect the station to have much altitude at all, but the bigger reason this is almost certainly not a drop out of the station is that anything between the station and the first launch would need to be taken in reverse on its own momentum as well and launching backwards into the station seems highly, HIGHLY unlikely.

ok thanks Zachary I was just wondering

His father in the video states “this will be the last time this ever happens” (or something along those lines) while leaning on the track… kinda hinting that it’s going to be very high in the air

I'm sure that's the vibe he was going for, but also I can't recall any coaters where you're actively allowed to touch track even at ground level.

ok, im back after nearly 3 months due to outrage that claims im trolling but anyways, here is my prediction:
I know this will be a mack rides shuttle coaster but we still didnt know of the theme of it, my bets is that it will be a horror theme to fit in with the phantom spire theme (I predict that half of the boardwalk will get a horror theme like gloomy woods & dark forest at alton towers)
