Earlyer I asked a question "Why were YOU keeping a secret?"
Then JJ2k said: "The reason Rob can't tell anybody things is, as I have viewed it anyway, cause he is trusted from both sides of the spectrum. He is trusted by us enthusiasts that what he says is true, but at the same time he is trusted by high up theme park employees and officials that he wont say anything about what they say to him, until its okay to."
Now why didnt he tell me that it all makes sence to me now. Thanks for spilling the beans Bro!
~PEACE~

Mr Spock, Leave the cheap flame attempts off the boards. If you care to "further discus", I'd be more than happy to do it over e-mail. I have my e-mail address here on the boards for a reason. See ya! -Rob Who posted this before he read your reply to JJ2K. Thanks

If security catches you the police will probebly be called, and after all that they'll probebly also have the cops take your film/confiscate your digital files pending further legal action (IE sue you)

I sat and watched a group of four people who were busted by park security over the winter when Nitro was going up. While they did not call in the cops, but they DID take names, ID, car plates, along with any film which they took.
I understand this was common all winter long that season.

Hmm really I never knew they cared that much! When Nitro was going up pics were showing up on the internet left and right.

You saw pictures left and right because they were taken from outside the park. I can't recall many pictures taken from inside the lot over the off season. However, the net was PACKED with photos taken from Prospertown Lake. The Lake had a great view of the coaster going up, and was the source of just about every photo on the net.
The funny thing is you mentioned people would not be stupid enough to jump a fence to get into off limits areas for pictures. Well, no, your right with that, but people WERE stupid enough to walk across the "frozen lake" to get right next to the construction site. Now that's a little much if you ask me. If that lake was weak anywhere, well, your a dead man. Come on folks, it isn't worth it to risk your own life for pictures which could be taken right on the lake shore!
-Rob
Who enjoyed the view of Nitro going up while on LAND at Prospertown Lake!

Those are my pics (including the one that TwistedRails showed on another page . And Rob, I take that as an insult because I was not the only person "stupid enough" to be on that ice. There were lots of iceskaters, and fisherman with me when I took those pics. I still don't understand why the park doesn't let you take pics. I would think that they would apppreciate the extra publicity. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to rely on Airplane pics this time.

the construction should be rather easy to see from the winter lights thingy, and even though your not supposed to pics always find a way to be taken.

Here is a thought. Its just track. I mean...who here has not seen rollercoaster track before. Also, in regards to winter lights, Im sure you will be able to see some construction, however, kind of hard to see anything at night since that is when the light display will be best viewed. Just a thought.

Actually, you can get there at the very begining and there should be enough light to see it pretty well. And also viper423 we can sometimes tell by the track how its gonna be layed out, if it will indeed be a clone, obviously we already know the theme, but if we didn't then by the colors we could have found the theme. So, there are many things you can find out from the track.

had all the track arrived, or just some? maybe just like the footers for the ride or something... oh yeah, and i just remembered rickyswmn's husband who worked for the concrete company for gadv and i'm wondering if he got called in to do it yet, it's still probably too early... or wait, maybe the coaster wont need concrete cause it's ON concrete on the parking lot, that or they could tear it out... w/e
