Do a quick "looks slow" keyword search through the upper right search bar, and you'll quickly spot the tradition.

"Looks slow" is a time-honored tradition 'round here. Doesn't matter if the statement is accurate or not. No ride is safe from getting looks slow'ed
All seriousness, that's a pretty decent speed for initial test runs in Georgia this time of year. This thing will be COOKING track by summertime.

I hope Exodus at Thorpe traverses it's stall and outerbank as elegant as that looks
(the only version of those elements i will be able to experience)

The fact that a coaster of this scale and quality is going to a tiny fun spot park is still hilarious to me. Also, a coaster testing in sub freezing temps will indeed look a tad slow.
Have some more video snippets hitting social media today:
Definitely think an underestimated part of this ride will be the simple chopper effect of using an out-and-back-ish layout design, having the track run parallel along the run. Especially love the cute head chopper right out of the station.

Wasn't yet in the boat for classifying this as a top tier coaster. I thought the plain out-and-back would make it a bit too predictable. However, seeing the POV, I might revise my expectations. Could be pretty high up there. The pacing and composition of elements looks very convincing.
ing tell what's happening. Great job Fun Spot!

The special effects weren't needed.Merry Christmas, they gave us the POV

Seems they have a zero-budget PR, probably ran by Arie Jr himself. However, despite the esthetics not really being my cup of tea, I somehow like that crappy 'sorry-we-spend-every-dime-on-the-coaster' charm.

I'm skeptical, how do we know the person who wrote the article got new info and didn't just reference previous speculation?

This is... an official and highly reputable industry magazine, the date can always change but there's a good pedigree of credibility with this one here.
But 2 weeks out I'd expect more hype from the park.
