Knott's Excelerator launch coaster has been rumored to open this summer - has anybody seen any construction going on at this point?

I drive by a couple of times a week on the 91 but there doesn't appear to be anything going on right now ............

Excelerator is supposed to have a 0-80mph launch with themed 50's Cadillac coaster cars going up a 200ft+ vertical incline only to turn 180 degrees around and come straight back down into a couple of gound level tight turns before ending .............

Some main supports are up as are some pieces of the track. Also, if you ride the sky cabin, you can see a whole lot of track pieces laying out in the land sounth west of the park (beyond the parking lot and the entrace by the Charles Schultz Theater. Looks cool....
