It is to the right of Flight of Fear, behind Racer, where the helicopter pad and queue used to be, at Kings Island, in Mason, Ohio!

It's supposed to open Memorial Day weekend.  I hope it is on schedule so that we get to ride it at the Con.

That really is amazing.  I gather they had already poured the footers some time ago when this was decided?

The footings have been being poured for some time now.  I understand that at Six Flags Worlds of Adventure, the coaster originally took 70 days to erect.
