Tormenta Rampaging Run has moved into testing at Six Flags Over Texas, putting trains on the 309-foot giga dive coaster before its first public rides.

The Arlington coaster is built around a 285-foot drop at 95 degrees, a listed top speed of 87 mph, and 4,199 feet of track. The ride anchors Rancho de la Tormenta.

Testing is a visible milestone, not an opening day. At this stage, the park can cycle trains, tune systems, and continue commissioning work before guests board.

Six Flags later set a June 26 opening date for the coaster. The May 27 testing footage was the first public look at the ride moving through the full course.
