The Giga Speculation Thread

It has been taken care of. 

I was thinking that we have not discussed this. What do you think the possibilities are that a giga could go over to or close to the water park?

From a logistics standpoint, it makes little sense. They already have The Beast, Diamondback, and MT on the right side of the park. It's better to spread the crowds around the park more. The back left corner really makes the most sense.

    Let me restate my last post. We are done with B&M vs Intamin.  It adds nothing to this thread. Any further posts will be removed.

  • To summarize the last 30 pages for those who don't want to read them: Intamin! No, B&m. No, Intamin. No B&M. But I reallllllllllllllllllly want an Intamin cause reasons. No, they break do

It might not make sense but for now we can have fun with it a speculate. Put in concepts in that area.

Is it possible for the potential giga coaster to go towards Banshee and maybe even passthrough the SBNO Son of Beast station? I know a lot of concepts on here have the proposed giga in the former Firehawk and Dinosaurs Alive land, so I was just wondering?

Nothing bad about the concepts you have shared before, but if the giga is supposed to be a B&M, it will most likely have an out-and-back layout as only Intamin has done the more twisty layouts

Well @IndyGuy4KI I have taken your advice and try to fit a giga in close to water park.

I give you " Son of King Cobra"  - As some may notice it has a very B&M feel to it. I really actually like this haha.

^^ What are you talking about? Nope? Nope what? This is not a speculation concept FYI. How can you tell it won't be record breaking its a concept. Also what theme are you referring too? King Cobra was green and yellow back when it was around.  I am not sure if you get how to use this site troll.

nope

is not record breaking and also it will be out of theme

Not record breaking? It's right next to Tropical Twister which is 43' tall. Look at the size of that lift hill compared to that? This thing has to be 1000' tall!

I like the concept, and I think that it is really nice when people take their time to make them, so I don’t feel that it is right when people bash others because their concepts aren’t “good enough”

Concepts don’t always have to be exact in terms of hight and size

He’s an obvious troll. Just don’t acknowledge him anymore.

Using a flat picture and paint lol I can't really judge  how tall it will be haha.  Its really like a hey you get the point.....

Maybe he was planted by Vekoma.  I wonder what The Real Mike KoontzTM  would have to say about that? 

Tro fo sho!

 

Haha I am thinking he is not going to like that. This troll doesn't even put words together that make sense.

I don't mind the idea of a giga going out by Soak City, wonder how they would get a guest path out that way though?

I would assume some sort of bridge over rail rd tracks somewhere.  That would be neat.

New contender for the title of "Longest queue in the park" lol.

Wow, you made it fit in that area. Impressive!

I  am not sure if it would actually fit there but maybe it really could?

With how close The Beast actually goes to the LMR, it would have to be pretty tight through there. Not to mention the turn right before the second lift hill. 

When can we expect to see some actual signs of construction? Like site clearing, footer work, etc....? 

Possibly as early as preview night. If, as I believe (but without verifiable proof), there is a new coaster coming in 2020, I think there will literally be signs when the park opens this season. 

Signs like these for Mystic Timbers (long before we knew what it would be):

Not too much longer and we’ll at least know reasonably for sure if something is coming or not. 

But, beyond that, actual construction schedule? Anyone who /could/ tell us, wouldn’t.

Pretty sure you can check the Firehawk thread for signs of site clearing. 

Just a quick question: is there any new signs of suspicious track showing up at Clermont Steel Fabricators?

I know that the track for Yukon Striker must have been produced really early considering that painted B&M track was spotted at Canada’s Wonderland in January of 2018, and a giga coaster, if that is what it is, would probably need its track produced pretty early as well

Are you referring to the ~4 pieces of track that they had to do a year early to go through the tunnel under the lake? 

I guess that is what I was talking about, but I still think that track for such a potentially large project would have to be produced earlier than usual

CW also had to partially dismantle Vortex to start Yukon construction. 

I was just wondering if any suspicious track showed up at Clermont Steel Fabricators if anyone has driven past there recently
