If this is real there is easily over 50 inches of track drawn. 1 inch = 100 ft meaning this coaster is most likely over 5'000 ft. -

I wouldn't read too much into that picture. That's the area out by their greenhouse area so it could be anything from planting flowers, trees or whatever. KI has an in house horticulture staff and they grow most of their own stuff that is planted around the park and take care of everything. Also, could just be people training on how to use the equipment. Yeah I would but he has more pictures from all over that area even some pictures showed footers molds being placed -

Maybe we are looking at it wrong. The dual footers could be for a racing coaster. Maybe a racing giga. First of its kind and a world record -

X-Works refers to everyone and anyone...the labels used to say the park name but after enthusiasts kept spilling the beans, so B&M had to change the customer name so no one would find out. Oh ok that makes sense -

Guys I have reason to believe It is Intamin. Look here, Intamin has a round tapered support and B&M is square tapered. Credit to beautyandthebeast on Kicentral for the picture. See round taper on support. Also difference in amount of bolts credit to Rcdb for the pic and Carl D Ragan . See square taper on support. -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
Locostitch replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I say that because of the Perilous Plunge accident, Xcelerator cable snap, Mavericks heart-line roll, Intimidator 305 being to intense, and Shoot the rapids boats not fitting originally. Also, If you have noticed the last Cedar Fair Intamin install was Shoot the Rapids. -

Sadly this may be the final nail in the coffin for no more Intamins at Cedar Fair parks. -

This is a lie. How do I know this? Because I personally spend enough time working for Disney corporate to know that nobody "high up in Disney corporate" would go announcing plans for the park including the removal of attractions or new ones getting installed to a group of school kids because she knows it would get her not only fired, but blacklisted out of the industry for the rest of her life. --Robb "Nice try, kid..." Alvey Hey calling me a liar is rude dude. I am not lying. She is my friends mom. I know her personally. Also she did not announce it like everyone were building Iron Man . She told me personally. I know I am right. When they announce it I want you to take me seriously next time. Also, that was very offensive calling me a liar. Thanks Calvin
