 This morning we were invited out to Busch Gardens Tampa to hear the announcement for their newest coaster, and to get a behind the scenes look at Iron Gwazi. So no fanfare, just pics of the news RMC masterpiece. Enjoy. Written by Steve and Jennifer Burant  Busch Gardens Tampa has something very exciting on the horizon for 2020!  It's Iron Gwazi, the newest and biggest RMC conversion!  Either these guys are trying to get an exclusive look at the construction, or they're working.  Clearly they're working.  We were treated to a behind the scenes hard hat tour of the construction site!  In case you needed help remembering who's building this beast.  This will be the tail end of the barrel roll that goes underneath the lift hill.  Almost all of the footers for Iron Gwazi are the original footers from Gwazi. Florida is a recycling state!  The crane of destiny.  This is the part where the train flies off the track and explodes like in Roller Coaster Tycoon.  A little close up coaster track porn.  More footers and more track waiting to be put into place.  Happy to see they'll be reusing the station "fly by" element from the original ride.  Looks as if most of the support structure is new.  This is still some original wood, and a very tight turn.  Can't wait to ride this thing!  The large gap in the structure there is where the lift hill will be.  Something completely illogical will happen here. Come out to Busch Gardens Tampa next spring for the new RMC hotness! Related Videos
