Any material sitting in a stagnant position is going to fade from sunlight or light in general. It’s just a fact. If you want to invent a paint that doesn’t fade let me know and I’ll be your first investor!

Can we start a GoFundMe page for@sixohdieselrage? I would like to fund his buddies fuel costs to get up In the air every week and provide us with some photos!

Yes this is likely just an Easter egg. I do think it is pretty cool how CF has been tying all the parks together with these various posters. I think they have realized the full abilities of social media. Marketing is doing a great job and these posters and tributes are pretty awesome!

It’s hard to speculate on a color without knowing the theme. If it was alien based I’d go green or dark blue track with black supports. If it somehow ties into beast I’d go orange track with silver supports.

I’m not concerned about the orientation of the lift hill. I think it will give the skyline the best profile of it is in the same direction as Diamondback. I guess it could go in the opposite direction but they aren’t clearing that way.

Speculation is fun but RMC is no way involved with this project. Especially an RMC TRex. I believe I watched a recent interview where Fred said they were focusing on the Raptors as they don’t want to cannibalize their own market. We likely won’t see a TRex for 5-10 years. This is clearly a B&M masterpiece. Let’s stay focused folks and follow the clues! I also saw a YouTube video today from Amusement Insiders. They highlighted@sixohdieselrage video. I’m sure he’s getting blown up with requests right now lol. But they mentioned that there were boundaries on the sides that said DO NOT CUT. He said his sources didn’t see any of these markers at the end of the current clearing. They cleared probably 300 yards this past week. I expect to see a lot more clearing again this weekend.

I don’t think they are quite there yet... Here is measurements of Fury 325. Here is measurement for what has been cleared to date. I do think by this weekend we will know how far this will extend. If you follow this to the end of the ridge this is the potential length. It could be a record breaker in length for sure if they clear that extra piece. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Here is a topographic map of the area. I’ve shaded in gray what has already been cleared. My guess is they will continue clearance to the end of that ridge and that would be a great spot for the turnaround. Also some awesome views of the river!

I’m all in on Cedar Fair Fanboy lol. How many times is that stupid poster going to have to be removed. I think we’re at 4 or 5 now.

I also don’t get the argument that Banshee and Mystic Timbers didn’t bring in the attendance numbers they were hoping. Why would they invest more money into a record breaking coaster when the last two didn’t achieve the attendance spike they were hoping... IMO that’s the EXACT reason you build a Giga.

Has anyone been by Clermont Steel Fabricators lately? I wonder if any of that gray primed track has received its final coat yet [emoji848]

I don’t think we’ll start seeing teasers until they start work where Firehawk plot was. Removing that red building could also open up a larger plaza area and maybe a... wait for it... bathroom?!

I don’t know about them all but I think this one is going...

Thanks[mention=10200]sixohdieselrage[/mention] !!!! These are great! They’ve been moving this week! I don’t think they are done yet but this is already a massive amount of land cleared! Look at the last picture of how large of an area this is compared to the rest of the park. Massive!

I think everybody on KIC does! It’s time to decode!

Using google measurements and taking it from the end of Firehawk, through the clearing, and halfway on Beasts brake run gets you .36 miles. Fury 325 is a total of .46 miles with the same measuring. We are a tenth of a way of cleared land from fitting a monster Giga in there!

My guess is they’re making up for down time earlier today and yesterday from the rain and don’t want to work over the weekend. [emoji2955]

@sixohdieselrage when are you getting back up in the air?

Can someone on a map mark out where The Beast brake shed is?

I hope this goes all the way back there as outlined in the past few posts. The night rides and view will be one of a kind amazing!

Yeah I don’t think they are nearly done yet. They had 3 days of good weather this week and it’s been wet the past 2. Actually surprised with how much they did get done. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Stitched together some comparisons. Last weeks is on top.

My understanding is those are covering drainage grates so they are not run over.

I’m in complete agreement. I think that makes the most sense and Firehawk plot can still be used for a flat. Plus it’s less clearing they’ll have to do. Size wise this is what I’m hoping for.

So the Red is what is already cleared. There are selectively saved trees in this area so I have a feeling this is where the station and que will go. It will be interesting to see if we extend into the blue or yellow. I think we will need to see clearing in these two areas for this to be a Giga and drop into the old SoB area.
