I love the line "the first few computer models always show the heads flying off" from bolinbroke.
Now that's classic.

Did anybody catch this line.... "And engineers here say they are studying another idea that could become the biggest, fastest ride ever built. If they pull it off, it will dwarf the current record holder, a 300-foot-tall coaster in Japan." Fish-hook anyone?

Is it just me or does Hypersonic look like one of those coasters you would see on Looney Toons?
Thanks supermandl! Very interesting and entertaining. A must for all Arrow/steel coaster fans.
A very neat article. Thanks!!!

"An undulating steel backbone fills most of the football-field-size shop at Arrow Dynamics. Chunks of metal the size and shape of dinosaur vertebrae litter the floor. Workers weld steel tubes 2 feet in diameter."

Wouldn't be fun to visit a shop like this?

Yes, a very good article indeed. Also nice to see some holes dug for X's footers. I hope it's open by the middle/end of June.

X Factor (with fingers crossed)
