Hey jayblazer is it ok for screamscape to use your photos?

At this time of year it's safe to say its going to Kings Island, i remember when Diamondback was built the storage shed was the first to be built and these are supports for that. Expect an announcement within a couple weeks.

Thank god it's a b&m invert its going to be good, i would have been disappointed with a b&m giga....

2565 Old State Route 32, Batavia

The B&M plant in batavia is currently making track i drove past it the other day and i saw the track being assembled threw the garage door that was open.... I have a picture of it but I can't figure out how to post it from my ipad... I might drive by again today for a better picture.

The evidence against a giga coaster is that the footers that are already poured are not spaced out far enough to support a 300ft lift hill. Unless its a very steep incline..

As much as i want a giga coaster i do not want one built by b&m, no offense to b&m Diamondback is a awesome coaster.

Gatekeeper uses adjacent footers for its station track. http://forum.nolimits-exchange.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=2613 Im not throwing the invert coaster out but, we know its a b&m coaster it's just a matter of what type of b&m we are getting.

matt ouimet stated in a interview that Kings Island has a pretty darn good entrance, if anything it would be to spruce it Up, at the main gate... it's possible we could see the new coaster do a flyover in Action Zone, which makes me wonder if we could be possibly getting a winged coaster regardless on what Matt stated in a interview.. The storage shed footers have alot of space in between them, does anyone have pictures of the Gatekeeper storage shed footers?

Ya i have ridden Gatekeeper and its a awesome coaster kinda short ride tho, but i think there's an issue were Cedar Fair will not let its other parks outdo the flagship park Cedar Point in terms of records, this coaster being a b&m makes me think that if we were to break a record it would be 200 ft invert coaster, which sounds good to me!

I don't wish to see flight deck go but it only makes sense, i felt the same way about Son of Beast, if they remove flight deck they could add more flat rides and possibly give way for room to a giga coaster running along the outside of the park so it wouldn't take up space.. Personally if we were to get a giga i would hope for an intanim, not saying i have anything against b&m, Diamondback is excellent!

There really isn't a line for flight deck, its practically a walk on during the weekdays and a short 5-10 minute wait on the weekends, arrow is out of business so parts could become an issue, plus think if they removed that coaster and all the paths that led to and from it all the room it would create, then we could see a phase 2 for the Action Zone revamp..

All the evidence is pointing to a b&m 1) footers identical to other b&m coasters and track being made at the plant. Now we are moving on to decoding what b&m we are getting any suggestions? It's almost worth putting money down on a invert coaster, as strange as it would be with 3 under the track coasters in one section of the park, im curious if this is part of a plan in removing one of those coasters...

Im assuming that they will announce the ride August but not actually start installing supports and track pieces till mid September, i don't think all the footers have been placed, and they still have to pour a foundation for the station.

I passed by the clermont steel plant, they had there garage doors open and were working on b&m track. I was able to see it from the street in my car while i was waiting at the light. The track was not painted, there was also flatbed trailers parked at the front of the plant. I have pictures of the track from the street but i don't know how to post them from my ipad... What i saw was from the street i did not go commando and take a up close and personal tour, unlike some people from this forum Sorry.
