With the crate pic, It says on it "DK6" Does anyone know what that means? and on the pic with the teeth, there are there scales right about the teeth? Now we need a new teaser video.

It all depends on how you define "Large"
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
Its slightly longer but not taller, so Griffin is larger.

Hey Thats kinda interesting... What is that crane popping up and down back there? Then again, That looks like its coming up from back by action theater.. Not to the left of Racer like the Magic red line states.. Hmmm... Its one of those trucks for putting in cement foundations.

Well, B&M does not make any new stand up coasters. Which stinks because they are really fun. I think if they made a stand up coaster just like Diamondback or intimidator that would be even better, that would really get the adrenaline pumping. Ouch, that would hurt any male and significantly reduce the number of kids in the region in the future Forgot about how much stand-ups Hurt.

Yeah that would be so cool, or a Stand-up Dive coaster would be amazing.

I think a B&M Dive Coaster would go great in that spot, but they are a little expensive. And the reason I don't see us getting a Dive Machine is all in the marketing - "New in 2011 - a brand new coaster that's the same height as Diamondback, but not quite as long, and goes the same speed and its 10 degrees steeper." The fact of the matter is, even the largest Dive Machines share nearly identical statistics with Diamondback, and one of the things that sets Dive Machines apart traditionally is the splashdown... Diamondback already has it. I'd die of happiness if a Dive Machine did come. I'm just saying that the marketing force might not be there. It's like if Cedar Point had Diamondback and Magnum. Both are incredibly different coasters experientially, but it's hard to market it to the general public without the similarities being all that stand out. At least, that's the way I would see it. Working in it's favor, Dive Machines really aren't that expensive. Griffon - the largest one on Earth - was $15,000,000. That's about two-thirds the cost of Diamondback. Granted, the ride would appear to use much less steel, but still. I'd definitely say it's worth that cost from a rider standpoint. You have a good point. A Invert or Floorless coaster would work there too.

I got nothing else to do so I will go over the clues. Scales or reptile skin Bones A Map A shipping container Trees with ribbons Mud a Goose odd teaser video... (off topic, but it would be so aweosme if KI had a zip line course in the woods, like Dollywood. It would be a fee for guests, but if you have a gold pass it should be free. )
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
Yeah.... lets hope that doesn't happen
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
I hope we get some more picture today. A 3rd teaser video would be nice too
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
Can you try to think realistically? They would never remove Vortex or spend $100M.
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
They look very similar.
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
It would be a great area for a terrain Woodie, like Prowler or Thunderhead. Not counting on it thought

That is 99.9999999999999999999% a Crane. 1. Please don't quote pictures. It's obnoxious. 2. No, that is Blue Racer's turn-around. Perhaps not the best comparison, but HERE is a shot of the other side of the same turn-around. Notice the similarities- white, angled supports, black track, white handrails, etc. Not to mention the location Don would be in is allegedly the same location as the rumored 2011 Teaser. Edit- And just to add, I agree with dr_humor. Come Friday, I'm expecting a lot of disappointed KICentral members. The majority of the members posting in this topic are envisioning a massive B&M dive machine or a complete overhaul of Son of Beast or some other ridiculous and unrealistic addition. The park opens in less than fifty days, so a major new roller coaster for 2011 is out of the picture (Diamondback started construction in October 2007 and didn't open till April 2009). And if it was something for 2012, why would they announce it before the park even opens for 2011? That would discourage guests from visiting the park this year and hurt season pass and ticket sales. Instead, it'd be wise to wiat until post-season to make mention of any upcoming attractions. I'm expecting a minor, probably more family-oriented attraction (not necessarily ride) within the Coney area. I'm also expecting a dinosaur theme or dinosaur tie-in of some sort. I'm already happy with WindSeeker, so anything else, no matter how small, is just the icing on the cake for me. Sorry, I am new here.

Oh sorry, I never saw that. I stand corrected if that is the case! I believe, and hope that t is intimidator 305!! This is my first time to KIC, but this is what I think it could be. If you look at the plans and you look at the layout of intimidator it has abut the same layout. I don't think that will happen, But it might.

A dive machine does not take up too much space and the park has nothing like it.

For some reason, I like this idea! Exactly what I've been thinking since last week. Yep, perfect example of what goodyellowkorn said! I'm not even going to try to predict what all this could mean. I'll just sit back and enjoy all the speculation. But I do think this has nothing to do with SoB. Ride Sally Ride! I also thing that it might be alligator/crocodile themed. On the teaser website, the picture in the back is a swap.

What station?
-
Something big announced 3-18-11?
Nice find. It does look different.

Something big announced 3-18-11?
I was thinking the same thing, but that would be one weirdly shaped coaster.
