Extreme Rides has been updated with a huge batch of Inferno pics showing off the completed steelwork, including a batch of pictures taken from the top of the tower ride and Colossus.
With a train on site, the lift hill motor and chain in place, all that is left is the wiring of the control systems before the ride can test.
also, the weather (correct me if im wrong Englanders) is quite grey and rainy often around there.....at least thats what i thought i heard. i used to live in Wales, and quite often wed wake up to cloudy, grainy looking skies...but hey, i still loved it there:)
Tim, who GREATLY regrets that he made it to NOT ONE park in the UK or Europe during the time he was there 3 years ago:(

Umm, excuse my ignorance, but what is exactly "rut-less" about this coaster? Sure, it has interlocking corks for the first time on an invert, but isnt that a signature so-to-speak of B&M loopers?. This looks a LOT like an inverted rendition of B:DK (subbing a low level turn for a dive loop).
That being said, I think that B&M can stay in their *rut* for a very long time. I *still* contend that they have never shat out a "bad" coaster. So a B&M "average" is JUST FINE with me :)

Jeremy -
To me, several things about this ride are oddly different than other inverts. Look at that figure-eight. Look at the weird drop out of the station and long ride to the lift hill, and the elongated banked drop. Check out how low to the ground the zero-g roll is. Granted, there's nothing revolutionary here, but at least we're getting some creative variations. Talon (unridden by me) also is a good example that B&M can do it if they try.
