You gotta go under the highway to get to Silverwood. This is when any day at Silverwood REALLY begins.

Espresso and Pastry Bar. Good stuff, and they open earlier than anything else at the park. So if you get here early, to avoid a line at bag check, you can still pick up some caffeine and breakfast.

While waiting at the rope drop inside the park, Engine 7 pulled into the station.

To open Stunt Pilot, there was a flyover by a biplane.

This way to Stunt Pilot

The line wasn't outside of the building for too long- it just keeps moving.

While the ride does have 10 single seats per train, this helps when say, there's a group of 7, they can add 3 from the single rider line to have a full train.

Because of how long the train is, the sensations are quite different from front to back. Look how far down the drop row 1 is, while row 10 is still flat up top.

A stunt plane restored and hung upside down over the queue line. Brilliant bit of theming.

It's really cool to watch- and because of how the line goes right under most of the ride, you get to watch it a lot.

Very smooth, very fun ride. A lot of people got off and said "Let's get back in line" right away.

The opening day line in the afternoon

Panic Plunge. If you sit on this side, you get a great overview of Stunt Pilot for a moment.

It was a beautiful day for a ride opening

Corkscrew Pizza. If you didn't get a picture of the corkscrew, did you even go to Silverwood?

From the side. The first drop is 87 degrees.

The guy in the back row looks like he might be rethinking his decision to ride.

Riders Seem To Really Enjoy This Ride. I did. Rode 4 times opening day, each time seemed better. It was really hauling late afternoon.

Hairtime!

Favorite photo of the day. This shot pretty much shows the gamut of rider reactions.

You "Fly" through three air race rings as you ride

Not the shot I REALLY wanted. But you can see Tremors and Stunt Pilot trains in one frame here.

Tremors New Track

Old and New Side by Side. Tremors absolutely flies through the bowl area now.

Aftershock. Well, it didn't have such a good day.

Only shot I got of it in action today. It went down right before we were going to board. Didn't see it open the rest of the day. Oh well, we'll be back.

Another shot of the plane in the queue

Someday I'll get a shot with Tremors and Stunt Pilot passing here.
