Nope not at all

I love the closeness of the track to the ground that is a great feeling on a coaster . Can't wait to ride it in 2010 ... I will miss it this year but hit it in 2010 after potter opens

Awesome! Keep em coming! Can you imagine walking around and suddenly a coaster comes zooming by! I can't wait!

i'm not as concerned about a coaster zooming by me when i am walking in universal.
what i am concerned about is someone spitting while they are on the ride and it falls on me.........

Absolutely not! I'm drooling too.

I hope Universal is smart and does the same kind of thing for passholders they did in 2004 when RoTM opened. They had the passholder preview after the park closed and only passholders were allowed in the park to ride it.

I am really looking forward to riding this in September. I hope the park is open at night. It looks like it will be cool to ride in the dark.

I was there for the ROTM Passholder Preview. We had scheduled our trip the previous December and lucked out big time when they scheduled the Preview for our first weekend there! That was the trip that my kids didn't know about until we had picked them up from school and were driving to the airport. They asked "where are we going?" and we handed them their PAP's on lanyards and said "want to go to UO for a week?" THAT was fun.

I won one of the Universal Heroes tickets and plan on going when HR3 opens. It's looking great. UO has done a great job with it.

Did you all see that RRR has its own website now?

http://www.hollywoodrockit.com

Not too much on it yet, but there is a construction blog that I hope will be updated regularly.

 

[HayGan]

Thanks for all the great pics! I just received an email about the website and now my boys are so excited about it!

Anyone know what the height restriction will be?

 

[Niki Andiokno]

I am sooo excited about this ride. I can't wait until September.
