Don't know why, but love this photo and the angle, looking up to the top.

I'd say it would be around 200 too, but that's just as guess. Based off BuzzSaw as its minimum is 130

The first supports have also been installed and the rest are on the ground ready to be installed tomorrow. No sign of the Joker head, but it is expected to be open tomorrow. The lift hill motor is under the shelter, and should be installed tomorrow or Monday depending on progress. The exterior of the station is also nearly complete, and more theming going up.

The Off Topic Topic
Back in my school days, a group of students studying physics got to go to DW and where a specialised jacket, which recorded speeds and forces, while they went on the rides. And they used that data for analysis and study.

And the Joker is much more iconic and terrifying. A big skull may be iconic for those who read the comics, but for the majority of the GP, they won't have any idea.

Yeah okay, I see your point.

I agree @Brad2912, and what would make it even better, is there was a theming element of sorts as you begin to move from the loading platform, just before the lift hill, whether it is through screens, animatronics, sound effects, etc. That would really add to it. The ride is all about the experience the track will provide, but anything else they add, will really add to the whole experience.

The post doesn't state 'Will you be visiting them today' or 'Is open today'. It is just sharing a photo and stating some information. Don't see the issue with it.

I think if they were alternating between MW and VR then that would've been fine, but for me its just too much of the VR logo out the front. Maybe after the MW entrance sign they will be all MW, or will alternate. Or maybe it comes down to the cost. The MW seem like it would cost a lot more, so they just got more VR instead.

Oh trust me, I wont be a pussy bitch, and I'll be riding this more than once. Here's my update. Large crane isn't in use at the moment, while preparations on the final pieces are made, particularly with the very top piece. And more theming has been installed since yesterday

Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster refurb
The part I was more referring to is that they are saying they will be wonderful, which makes me think they will be an improvement on what they had. And my soon, they probably mean the maintnece period in November/December.

HOLY SH*T. Seeing that now is insane, and actually makes me a little nervous about the ride now. But that isn't going to stop me from riding it. Based off the information I was told last week, the final piece of track will be installed later today, but it could be early tomorrow. Never seen a coaster as big as this before 😱

Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster refurb
Someone on FB asked MW what was happening with the SDSC, and they replied: "Scooby Doo Spooky Coaster will soon be undergoing some wonderful thematic enhancements." So from this I think we can say that the ride will be staying themed to Scooby-Doo and that the theming will be improved upon.

@HussRainbow87 This is only the first sign of theming we've had, and isn't finished yet. So I wouldn't jump straight to any assumptions just yet.

The theming may take elements like they have in the Villains area, and taking a standard statue and make something interesting out it. So maybe a hybrid between GL and Villains will be the type of theming. Even if they are just walls, but have sound, smoke, lights, etc, that will greatly add to the queue experience. What ever they do, I'm sure it will be good, and really if it isn't it wont matter, because for this one, its mostly about that ride experience, which will be awesome. You can see in the POV video, some what of how parts of the theming and entrance will be (Obviously all white for the video but gives an idea)
