I highly doubt the track is like that, I think thats just an unwanted effect like this one

Weren't there multiple pictures, some demonstrating the track under load sag from being stacked? I don't think this was a photographic anomaly.

The track in the middle of the screen can be seen bowed inwards

You can also make out the bendiness in the track in this shot

nahhhh, they're leaving it as is so the braking can better mimic "rumble strips" on the side of race circuits.

Those towers should have been put in the center of an "Inta-Strata" area! (Clearance guaranteed!) :)

Sorry for bringing back up a post that was made in the early bronze ages; but the effect seen is very clearly NOT a camera distortion. Notice that every section of the track is bent in a similar way; and how the bending resets at every connection.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.
