Sounds like good news! AWESOME NEWS!! I'm guess it will something like Tornado at Bakken, but could they be more of a "nascar style" MOD EDIT by larrygator: I deleted the YouTube clip of Tornado you embedded, it didn't really show the restraints as well as the clip made by someone else a few posts back. -

Wait a second, which is it? It's bad when they downgrade or its bad when they upgrade? You say "OH NOES they made it shorter than MF it's going to suckkkkkk!!!!!1111!!" but then you say Kingda Ka, which is longer, taller, and faster, is worse than TTD. Your argument just doesn't make sense. I guess both Goliaths, Hollywood Dream: The Ride, Behemoth, and Diamondback are all worse than Silver Star because they are shorter and were built after it...? Im about to make a fact right quick... These same fanboys thats talking all this smack and trash talk will be the same fanboys that's gong to be crossing the states to Doswell, Va. next year to jump on this Monsta! -

Because it's from the original model...We talked to the guy at the announcement that actually put it together... and they was so shocked and amazed when they were asked to build the model. -

Lift stairs has arrived and looks like we can scratch the vertical lift out of the picture? The angle looks to be about 45 degrees. http://www.kdfansite.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=441&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=4740 -

LMAO!!... anyways... I totally hope its not a vertical lift, but theres a very large area they are digging up and I can see them putting some type of heavy large supports there for something vertical. I'll draw up another draft soon with a typical lift to see how it turns out. -

This is what my coaster eye is showing me. Even though I do not want it to be a vertical lift. I just cant see a typical "giga" lift fitting within this footprint, but then again... I could be wrong. With that large hole to the left of Anaconda, I really see the lift crest of the supports going there. Now, this is what I see only for the main footprint. What do u think? (disregard the black supports, even though it looks better ) -

Video Update: This might be a little far fetched... but I've noticed this today... Can you see this being an out & back Giga and traveling out into the empty area/field at 00:38? I believe this land is also owned by the park. -

UPDATE: Just got back from the park. Not a lot of change, but a few. So let me share. First of all, I'm not sure if anyone has discussed this label of what it might mean... any guesses? Does it just mean chain lift, and did anyone ever find out what the bottom writing says? I didn't think about getting a close up when I was there, so I just had to zoom/crop from my PC. Here are a few more pics of tracks/supports... Good ole Adena More Cement trucks... Here's some pics of Clint's mystery shot. Before After You can see where the green tarp(bottom left)behind RY... no, its not a pool. Some construction vehicles behind the scenes. I was trying to see if I could any type of track/supports... no luck. Misc./Construction -

That was BOA day, the park was INSANE! They even had a sign up that said "park is crowded" Ive never seen it that packed before. I can say that every line was almost over an hour long. They even had to close the gates to Water Works because it was filled to capacity. I only rode 2 rides that day, Dodgem and Flying Eagles. I think they reached over 35K that day. Just an visual.... here's a pic I took. -

This past weekend was a really packed one...here's a small preview. More footers popping up... Giga Track, too bad I couldn't get close ups due to all the cars and security.. Look at the cars parked on the side...Parking lot was FILLED UP! Full parking lot! Volcano line pouring out the Q! Dominator DOMINATES! -
