Good luck to all participants! Myself and the rest of the staff wish you the best of luck for this one-of-a-kind contest! :)

I would like to emphasize that the pictures must be of the MAIN track elements...not the station, lifthill, brake run, or storage track. These track pieces will not be leaving Ohio until the 29th of Sept, therefor do not attempt to submit photos of track that is already en route or at the park! ;)

So you're saying that if I get a picture of the lift hill track - that doesn't count?

Otherwise a cool contest, too bad I don't live anywhere near the route!

[Steve K]

As per Sea World's terms of the contest, photos must be of the MAIN track segments, not those listed above. If you have any additional questions, please let us know! :)

[Michael]

Too bad none of this will be heading by me :(

It sounds like a cool contest though!

[Jake]

What a moronic rule! Honestly, the odds that anyone will actually see any type of track piece period is very slim to begin with. Unless someone plans on camping out on an interstate or something. So they decide to slim the odds even further by saying that it can only be a "Main" track piece?

Lame.

[Steelinwood]

But I live in NH :(

[RollermanDan]

The question is how badly do you want those tickets / privileges ;)?

[Jake]

Hey man, that fifty dollar gas card might get me to the CA border!

Hey man, that fifty dollar gas card might get me to the CA border!

I'd kill for a fifty dollar gas card right now. I'm on the road 2 hours a day. :rolleyes:

Good things come to those who wait.

Have just been informed by the manufacturer that SeaWorld Orlando’s Manta track will be leaving Ohio the week of October 6, with the first couple of trucks leaving that Monday morning. See email below for the route.

Originally, SeaWorld had thought the track would ship the week of September 29, but turns out they needed an extra week to make sure the right amount of thrills were mixed into the steel …

Thanks for your compliance and participation!
