Intimidator 305 - Kings Dominion Giga coaster

[tks]

This is going to be a Hyper-Mega-SUPERAWESOMEZ-Strata-Gigawatt Coaster. I know that much.

Adding something real, i'm quite excited if this does turn out to be a super-high ride. There aren't many, and the ones that do reach that height generally don't do alot *looks at MF*. I hope this makes use of its speed/height whatever.

This might be the highlight of next year in the US.. I think we are all pretty excited.. even moreso considering I'll be riding it.

Me too, YES!

I actually just realized the announcement is tomorrow.. I'm gonna urinate my pants.

Hmm.. waste of 3 minutes just to show pictures of wheels being put in the track..

And it is pronounced "Uh-D-Nuh"... silly kids.

I think the update before is more interesting, with those strange supports. Are we sure that both of the bits pointed out connect to track? Just saying because a friend (thanks Sam!) pointed out to me the look of these new Intamin supports from iSpeed.

Have we seen a coaster before where the same support connects to two pieces of track?

I think the supports will look something like this.

Yay for vertical!

 

[Uncle Arly]

Brilliant! I'm surprised no-one has tried to draft a layout based on footers.

 

[Snoo]

There isn't enough footers/enough view of the site/evidence to support anyones ideas. In fact, I have seen NONE.. which is really odd for a coaster of this size.

 

[Uncle Arly]

Oh, I always thought most footers were ready before vertical construction started?

 

[Snoo]

Well being that this will be a huge coaster.. I bet half the footers aren't in place on most of the layout. It looks as if they only have that one section done as of now.

 

[Ali]

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there any chance that this will be the longest coaster in the world?

Oh yeah. That makes sense. I swear I'm turning into the new Taylor, HA!

[Snoo]

Who knows. I guess we will have to see in less then 24 hours.

 

[RCF]

Haha Taylor. I hope you're not serious.

 

[LiveForTheLaunch]

Wow.

Just wow.

Like.. kay.. transfer track.. lemonade wow.

I was serious What else could be pronounced Uh-D-Nah?

OMG we have like an hour and twenty minutes to go!

 

[costar]

I have to confess to being quite excited by this one. Mainly coz it has the potential to be a no-frills classic. I remember the Millennium Force hype like it was yesterday and lots of the speculation here is the same.

Let's hope for a big hill and an expansive layout.

What's the best way to find out in an hour then? I've read the last few pages and no mention of who's covering the announcement...?

^ I'm guessing probably the Kings Dominion website, I dunno..
