  1. Question about constructing the coaster...does anyone know how quick the track and supports typically go up? Do you think we'll see the lift hill before the winter? I haven't followed a new ride this closely before so I was just wondering how long it typically takes to complete? Thanks


    The lift hill for Fury 325 was topped off in early December of 2014. I would suspect our Giga will have a similar timeline of construction

  2. Nobody has stated the obvious that asteroids caused the Dinosaurs to go extinct and ties in with Dinosaurs Alive which this runs through.


    When researching the crater Chicxulub and the asteroid that made dinosaurs go extinct, I found this mission executed in 2016 (around the time that this roller coaster project would’ve been forming) that I thought sounded interesting. It also may just be my optimism that the height will be 350+ feet. 355f164fbc751d07e13983060849859c.jpg

  3. Also regarding the clues this morning, could the page numbers hold any significance? I first thought it was odd that it began at Page 08. It looks like the destruction of the binder was due to a shredder versus removing pages. Also I thought it was odd to have it as Page 08 rather than Page 8. That made me think that the page titled ‘Welcome to Project X New Hire’ could reference something in 2008. That was a year that a lot of CF changes were made apparent in the park as well as the year that DB was announced. I don’t know if that could be something as simple as saying that B&M was the ‘New Hire’ for KI in 2008 and is also working on Project X or maybe something deeper. Here was an old video I found after doing some minimal research that explains some of the things going on in 2008

  4. So if it was something like Helix or Prowler you guys would be upset? Well you guys have a good chance of being dissapointed, I wouldn't rule it out but there are too many possibilities to lock myself into one team.

    I'm not saying I would be upset. By no means would I say "Dang we got a helix-like roller coaster". I'm just saying that I would prefer a Giga Coaster over anything else

  5. Ill be super disappointed if this ain't a giga coaster. I feel like it is, but a lot of people are saying we're going to get a wooden coaster and I hope that's not the case.

    I feel the same way. I am fine with just having The Racer and The Beast at Kings Island. That is enough wooden coasters for me. However, we don't have anything like a Giga Coaster.

  6. Yeah, looks like it is just a space filler, but they could have put Vortex or another ride there. It could be a hint that has been ignored as we all just think it is a space filler though.

    That's what I was thinking. They could have always put Vortex, Invertigo, or even Planet Snoopy since it is a record-winning kids section. They could claim it was a space filler but they have so many other options.
