I've already got my song in mind for the video next year if it does turn out to be NASCAR related.

Let's just saying it has something to do with "turning left".

God i really hope it does not have a nascar theme. I'll still ride it no matter what it's called but for the love of god please do not make me watch Nascar suff while i'm in line for and hour or 2.

If it is Nascar themed don't expect much themeing.

tessener25: That is a bad choice in music. I couldn't watch it because of the music.

The music in the video would be more appropriate for a coaster that had run for a long time and is being removed.

With the checkered flag being in that video, I'd say that this coaster will have a NASCAR theme to it.

I hope there is a Raging Bull figure 8 in the design and maybe some subterranean banking with white walls.
