RE: Verbolten
I just got an email about Verbolten.
It said to look out for QR code around the park. Anyone seen any yet?

RE: Verbolten
It's a german themed ride... better have a German manufactured car with it....
....If Busch ever stoops that low it better be Audi or Mercedes. Wanna know why? Both manufacturers used the Autobahn as a psuedo-test track for new cars, and sometimes even attempted world speed records. There were many races (rallies as they were called back then) and isn't the ride supposed to be themed to a rally? BAM, two and two together. A test drive on the Autobahn with an Audi/Mercedes that goes horribly wrong when you drive through a haunted forest.

RE: Verbolten
I really intended to post about it and see if anyone had saw what I thought to be track too, but, then I saw CarterGee post about it so I PMed him and let him know you could definetly see it from the third row of Griffon because it stays level the whole time during the holding brake of the first drop. Also if you ride in the Green or Blue sections of Mach Tower you can get a decent view of the track once you hit 200 feet again from over that way as well. IF you're lucky enough to get the seats that are green one seat then switches to blue that directly face that way you can see it plane as day (or should i say black as night
) especially with the crane that was sticking straight up into the air over the track itself. It would be awesome to find out if anyone else can see it as well so I know for a fact I wasn't imagining things.

Idea for Chris, swift, and crew.
What if bgwfans planted some qr codes around the park directed to certain links here about Verbolten? I'm sure Busch wouldn't like it but I would love to see what would come out of that.

RE: Verbolten
VW would be more likely, though I doubt Busch would go with a sponsor. VW is looking to expand in the US, and they would go for something like this.
*DISCLAIMER* I use to work for a VW contractor, don't ask.
Most likely a cease and desist order.

RE: Verbolten
Lulz, Your probably right. It could be anyone though... just using available resources... Anyone could put random codes around the park for anything. example, someone puts a qr code out that links to apple.com, doesn't mean it was Apple that put it there. Just sayin'

I thought you all might like to see these...
[REDACTED]
Another surprise should be coming from Chris sometime soon.

Hello drop track, looking good even from my phone...
Are they going to test it while they're still bulding or are they going to let it sit until the whole track is completed?

RE: Verbolten
The front of the building (for riders at least) will have a facade on it that looks like this:
[REDACTED]
As far as the other sides, not sure, they may go the way of DarKastle and leave them unthemed, or they may go Big Bad Wolf village and finish the back sides as well.

At this point I'm curious just how much of a secret BG is trying to keep the drop when they're building that as the first piece of track.
