    You know, I chuckle at this thread. The more I read it... which is pretty much daily now... the more I become amused. Why? It's a near carbon copy of about a dozen other threads related to KI throu

    For those waiting for when we'll announce what we're building for the future, you might want to grab yourself a Snickers bar. It's going to be awhile. We still have the majority of the 2013 season

How exactly was KIC referred to? Screenshots, quotes, ...?

They showed the cover page of the site.

    Also the blue prints in the video don't appear to have a midcourse break run....do you think this might mean 2 train operation?

    The train shead looks like a three train shead to me..

    dual station....

    Yes I have seen you post that same theory 2 or 3 times now. Not once has it been disputed that I recall.

    Would anyone know where one could watch this news broadcast? I live in Indy and am unable to have seen the news at the time...

    The story had not changed on their website as of right now!

    That would allow three train operation. Firehawk takes forver to load and FOF is not dual loading. it has seperate load unload and only run 2 trains.

    Mr. Spiegel also famously guessed that Diamondback's transfer track footings were indicative of a vertical loop, and that it would be a Dive coaster.

    Even though it looks cool I don't want a duel station. It seems like an idea that tried to make things better but didn't really do anything...

    I know, but there was someone on the previous page who said they didn't know what the blueprints were that we were referring to.

    Essentially the same as Backlot Stunt Track

    The only roller coaster that does real good with duel loading is California Screaming because they can run 6 trains at once and not break down

    I just wanted to give the link again to dudecoasterman and any others in case they want to try again later to see if they added tonights video!

    "Only four in the nation..." what ever he was talking about is irrelevant because the new attraction is a WORLD record breaker. Not just a simple "Biggest loop in Cincinnati area"

    Let me repeat as you already know anyways...

    WORLD RECORD BREAKER

    Since I near Disney I go all the time and screamin is never down and running 5 trains. They get about 4,000 people an hour

    millennium force has the same capacity as Diamondback yet has no Mcbr but it does have an unloading station just like Flight of Fear.... Flight of Fear and millennium force have the same ride duration clocked in at 2mins20seconds. Im starting to think Flight of Fear only operates 2 trains.

    Well he was saying there only 3 likes in the country . It could take the longest winged rider from flying over the rain forest ( I know it is not a winged rider)

    Key word Groundbreaker! InvertedWingrider that is my dream

    Flight of Fear started with 3 trains and a mid course break run. It loaded faster with the terribly painful over the head restraints....but was always slowed to a crawl in the breakrun in the middle of the ride. Since you exit opposite from where you board (which wasn't the original designers intention), one car would wait outside of the exit for a Loooong time before people could disembark. When they switched to lapbar and lock, it took longer to board and disembark, and they eliminated one train.... and to this day they only operate 2 trains.

    jcgoble getting all the attention on that video!

    Okay, maybe I will watch it after all. I normally don't watch most videos posted on here, but it seems that an exception is warranted here. :)

    Leaving riders hanging off the sides, Dons multiple tweets about the future, what if this is a 4D coaster.

    My name was partially on local night time television news... omg omg omg. "calak-" ....Life changing.. -_-

    It's actually fully visible! So are Boddah1994, jcgoble3, Beastfan26, jackparanoia, TTD-120-420, and the phrase "Guests say the darnest things!" You're all stars!

    EDIT Sorry, slow connection... can't keep up with yall!
