Could be mulching. They’ve made at least 15 or so dump truck loads putting something back there. I guess it could be old mulch? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There appears to be some earthwork going on from somewhere inside the park. I’ve been watching two dump trucks making trips and keep adding to the circled area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There was this poster that was found at Cedar Point last year that hinted toward what eventually became Yukon Striker at CW. So it’s not out of the question to cross tease between the parks. It also seems like these posters and other Easter Eggs/possible hints have only been going on the past few years. It’s hard to tell what the intent is at this point as it’s still a rather new thing they are doing. I like where they are going with the multi park theme/story line.

@sixohdieselrage Do you have any aerial photos of the area around Racer and the former FH plot and DA? How about around Action Theater? Looks like you were up there on 3/19. Did you see anything going on in these areas? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just a general question I was curious of. I’ve always wondered how they make a section of track from a raw sheet of steel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone know where the steel for B & M is poured and formed? I don’t think they do that at CSF. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Defending yourself would be giving an argument on why you believe he filed commencement plans have been suddenly reversed. Insulting and attacking someone because you can’t defend your position is what you just did Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

How can you say he is stirring the pot?! You just said “if the plan is still a GO”. I think you are trying to stir the pot if you think they filed commencement plans in August and then magically cancelled them less than 6 months later. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Wahhhhh that’s the most childish post I’ve seen on here. I’m sorry your entire world was wrecked by seeing unauthorized photos of an amusement park entrance. Grow up! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Firehawk Leaving Kings Island 10/28/18
ohiocoasterfan replied to IndyGuy4KI's topic in Kings Island Central Newsroom
Just google “sixohdieselrage instagram” and you will see the aerial photos. I understand not posting international street photos. I don’t see why Firehawk photos are not allowed. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
It is about business, and business at KI has been flat. The plans say B&M. The most likely spot for ANY coaster was in DA area. Well DA is gone and they decide to tear down the coaster next to it. Huge open plot of land the same year plans are filed for 2018, 2019, and 2020 listing B&M as a contractor. Yes people will be disappointed because every sign points to something big and it being a Giga. Cedar Fair would be seriously disappointing a ton of people if there wasn’t a major coast going into Kings Island in 2020. My belief is there is a Giga site being graded and smoothed out right now #itsbig #itsgone Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Who else is exciting about walking in a month from now and heading to FoF and seeing a big fence blocking our view with some sort of coded teaser on it? With the filed plans, combined with the removal of Firehawk, there is no way we aren’t getting something big and marvelous for 2020. In one month ALL the fun and speculation begins!!!

They’ve been digging footers every year. They are going for the new Giga record of longest time to build a Giga [emoji23] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

There was a picture of it on this site a couple of days ago showing all the trees removed but for some reason it is not on here anymore. Not sure why. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I just reviewed the Carowinds Connection website for insight on how Fury 325 came together. It seems we are on or ahead of schedule if this truly is a Giga we’re getting. This is what I have gathered. 1/23- Trademark filed for Fury. 3/29- fencing was up around the former go kart site. 4/20- Dismantling of the go kart track can be seen. 6/9- Trademark filed for Fury 325. 6/21- Survey markers are all over and the go kart track has been torn up. 7/2- Go kart track completely removed and that portion of the site has been prepped and graded 7/13- Additional site prep is done in the parking lot and near the front gate. 7/18- First footer is poured in former go kart area. 7/18-8/24- Additional site prep and footers. 8/24- First piece of track arrives. 9/29- First piece of track installed. 1/30/15- Last piece of track installed.

Firehawk Leaving Kings Island 10/28/18

This lends credence to my theory that the B&M project was originally scheduled for completion in 2021 and the demise of Firehawk would have occurred a year later. Due to low attendance figures and no significant bump and slumping stock, management moved the project up a year sometime in late Spring early Summer. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Hopefully this doesn’t go against the TOSbut here is the link to photos showing the station is gone and demo is almost complete. https://m.facebook.com/?_rdr#!/story/graphql_permalink/?graphql_id=UzpfSTE2Nzk0NzQ4OTkxNzMwMzoyMzMyNTcwMDcwMTIxNjkw Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I was thinking if it’s possible that they moved up the 2020 project from 2021 due to lower attendance the first half of the year. The plan was filed in August I think. It seems that Firehawk was a decision they made during the summer and may have been influenced by whatever the 2020 project may be. Just a thought. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would imagine the next month or two will be crucial for if a Giga is coming in 2020. I’d think Firehawk would be wrapped up by the end of the month and then hopefully land clearing and Teraforming would occur. There could be a ton of trees marked for removal back there that we don’t know about. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone have a link to the Warren County document where paperwork for B&M was found? Has anything additional been filed? I don’t think O’Rourke was listed on that document. Would they have to file something for demolition of Firehawk? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What? Who gave you access to the internet? Lol! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If a GiGa is coming in 2020 when will land clearing start? What month do you think we would see signs of something happening? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
