Two photos of X's trains at the Arrow facility were sent into Twisted Rails. Also, a so-so quality first-person video has been posted of X. It will allow you to get a sense of what the ride will be like.

No block brakes! That IS good news. It's going to be one intense experience.

There is no such thing as inner peace. There is only nervousness and death.
one word.....FREAKY! That ride looks so intense!
I watched the animation several times, and I'm not sure I fully comprehend what's going on. Imagine what it'll be like to actually ride the thing. Amazing.

Batwing-Bow Down
Good thing they made this coaster short in duration. Think about it...we really haven't tested the type of g forces this things gonna deliver. We didn't all start just riding 300 foot coasters either. We had to work our way up. Once we all get used to the 4-d it will be commonplace, I think. Btw, didn't Arrow simulate portions of the ride at their plant. I think the smoothness of the ride will dictate the nausea factor. But I'm with MPD47, BE BRAVE. I'll be one of the first, living only 20 minutes away. :-)
Is it me, or are the WHEELS on the trains paurple and silver.
How many trains is this thing supposed to run again? 3?
I think the ride will be on the program called "fun!" on July 4 at 3:30 on KCAL 9 in Los Angeles. I heard that the television crew was there this past week getting footage of the construction. Does anyone else have information?
the structure looks good, BUT...has anyone noticed how high that raven turn is? will the train make it?

MILLENIUM FORCE:
FEEL THE FORCE
rick121, i was there a little bit ago(mabeya week and a half) and I saw something that looked like a camera holder on riddlers revenge so I am wondering if that has anything to do with the news crew or the show.
the wheels are silver i can see does that meana new material for the wheels to insure smoothness
