As Jeff Gramke put it, "they're all steel coasters really." (Coasterstock 2015) They all ride on steel track. -

The track is not very big, and the chain return is in track not below like a dive coaster. I will try to post more pictures later. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

There may have been more lift hill pieces as they were right inside the bay, but it was dark and could not clearly see them. But this is definitely not Dive track. It's different than Baron, and different than the older dive track. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -

And the trucks are loading **edit adding what I saw I found 7 lift hill sections, and using my distance app and comparing the piece next to the flat bed. They are about 45-50ft section and there are 7 of them. 7x45=315' 7x50=350' This coaster is a GIGA!!!! **edit again Sorry but this is a picture of my display on my Nikon. I will upload a better quality image later. This is from one of the blue supports. Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -
I'd rather see this kind of TLC Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

If it weren't rideable then how is it that I have ridden it well over 100 times this season alone?Exactly, why do you think it's a walk on 75% of the time?Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Ahh! But something else has appeared Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

I'm thinking a new International Showplace. It really needs replaced. The railings on the back have been held in place by wires for the last 3 years. Lol Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

Looks pretty cool to me [emoji12] Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system. -
I would look for something for 2017, as it will be KI's 45th anniversary

Hopefully sooner than later.

Or their budget was really low for a teaser video, something along the lines of "hey, I have a brother who tinkers in one of those virtual roller coaster apps". Lol Sent from a signal coming out of the Vega system.

I stand corrected on the Dive track, but here is Baron lift hill track vs the mystery track, they are not the same. I think we may be looking at something new.
-
It's not big enough for a dive coaster, unless it seats 4 across. This track size is the exact same as Fury. Dive track also has straight cross supports, this is has curved. I have not seen any other Dive track with curved cross supports, unless this is a new version. Believe what you will, but I say this is not Dive track.

After reviewing all the recent tracks for Thunderbird, Diamondback, Banshee, Fury 325, Krake, Griffon, and the mystery track; this is not a Dive coaster. If this track is for CP, then Millie is getting a big sister. The paint job and track matches Fury 325. I went through the lift hill pieces, and different elements. They all match bolt patterns and design.

Figure the trim they put at the turnaround which nearly makes me wonder if we will stall up there. The Racer and old and worn, she has not had the love she deserves. as Terp says "Do the physics" Fiction is a ***** and a drag!
