It rings a bell, I do remember reading somewhere that it was a key thing that B&M had to work on before they could offer rides over a certain height, and Leviathan uses that stronger chain.

Ahh! For some reason I was expecting two chains in parallel. Okay makes sense now!

You know, I was thinking with all these dive coasters and the long flat straight track/turns they have at the top between the lift and drop...it would be cool if they switched it up and did an outer bank up there.
Imagine slowly tilting off to the side 30 or 45 degrees when you're 300 feet up in the air...would be a really simple addition that would definitely add a terrifying factor, before you actually get to the drop.
But this is B&M so standard cookie cutter it shall probably always be.

If only they went with a non-inverting loop, and a stall on the 2nd Immelmann into the mcbr.

Budget coming in to around $40-50 million. Hope that means B&M isn’t using their cheaper steel on this;
