    I really wish I would have taken my good camera and telephoto lens. I just didn’t want to wait until I got home to post pics so I only used my phone. Hopefully someone else with a good camera can drive over in the next few days and confirm the blue track is for KI.

    So .. you going? :huh:

    No, sorry I'm not gonna go today. I live about an hour away and was going to drive by and then go to KI. Now strong storms are moving in so I won't be able to ride anything therefore making the drive not worth it. I'm hoping to go in the morning on my way to KI if anyone else hasn't posted pics before then. 

    And so the wait continues...

    Was at the park today... went up the Eiffel Tower just to get a quick look.  Here’s a pic.

    BTW - I hate the lower deck of the ET...  that flooring needs replaced - it buckles in spots and scares me to death.  I was weak in the knees the entire time I was up there.  The upper deck isn’t nearly as scary.

    I agree! I don't scare easily but I feel genuinely unsafe on the lower deck. The top deck feels more sturdy, the floors aren't as rusted and don't buckle as much, plus if you fall through the top floor, the second floor MIGHT catch you lol

    Really really off topic but I hope everyone that follows this page that is located north of Dayton is safe right now.. I'm currently sheltered in place in my basement.

    Has anyone at the park been on Beast or WindSeeker yet? Can we confirm there is no additional clearing in the area by Beasts brake run that can’t be seen from Racer and ET?

    I rode Racer and Beast and there is no new clearing

    For all those wanting to take vids and pics of any further land clearing, I'm thinking there may be a 'Running of the Bulls" to the Eiffel Tower' If there is don't get your heel stepped on.

    Nah, I'm going to look for teasers and progress in other places, if other people have the tower covered them Im going elsewhere

    From what I can tell by the overhead blueprints (which I admit, is very little), the layout seems to be either a mixture of Leviathan and Fury elements or something entirely different altogether. I can't really tell.

     

    You can actually tell a lot by those blue prints. There are banked airtime hills. That video that was posted is actually pretty spot on. If you look closely at the leaked blue prints you can see lines where the supports are so you can tell where there is height. The turn around starts low to the ground and rises quickly. 

    The helix also appears to be pretty high in the air based on the length of the suppprts that are visible  

    Also, look closely at the track. You can see lines on the sides and so where there is banking you can tell. The second hill is banked to the left. I actually traced over the track in photoshop, not just as one solid line like other people had, but zoomed in and traced all three lines of the track so you could see banking. I also highlighted the supports in red so you could tell where there is height but when I posted on here it was removed because it was a traced copy of the leaked blue prints. I would be happy to PM to anyone interested though. 

    If this is real it will be short but pretty intense. That video someone posted on YouTube looks to be spot on

    Are any of you guys planning on going to the park tomorrow to possibly get some shots from the tower? Just curious. 

    ....Not that we necessarily need more fuel to this fire B). But on the other hand, it would definitely help to confirm or deny the "layout". However that would obviously depend on whether anything else has been cleared yet (or is even going to be cleared)

    I will be there when they open and will update with pictures

    I am most anxious to see photos of any work that's taken place at the park.  More clearing, footings, grading etc.  The physical indications really get my anticipation blood flowing.

    For those that regularly visit the park and post photos of the area in question - keep those coming (albeit taken within the appropriate confines of the park.)

    Tomorrow morning... if at all possible ;-)  LOL!

    I'm gonna be there as soon as they open just to post update and pictures of progress :)
