does the sit-down even loop? I can't tell!

It doesn't look like it. Here's a pic of the elements after the lift hill.

So by the looks of it the inverted side loops but the sitdown side doesn't. This might actually be a bit more family friendly than I originally thought.

Well the fact sheet out on Battlestar Galactica coaster at Universal Studio Singapore.

I hope we can hear more about this on a future show of Season Pass. I really big Galactica fan and I love to hear how this coaster is getting theme.

^ oh ok. Cool, I'm a little disappointed that the red track is pretty much going to be lame, but I'll get over it. Can't wait to see some povs.

Here's some video of both sides testing! Is it just me or does it seem a bit slow? Hopefully the ride will be smooth with the new Vekoma 4 across trains.

Yea, the last inversion on the blue side seems a little slow to me, but I think it will faster while your riding it. I think overall it looks like a great ride... I wish the dueling sections were a little more "intense".
