MagnumFreak25 Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Wonder what that's for, Doesn't seem to be for a dive machine since it's so thin. Also, What's that green piece in the backround? Do we know what that's for?
rcjp Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Wonder what that's for, Doesn't seem to be for a dive machine since it's so thin. Well, it could be for one of these smaller dive machines but I have no idea.
MagnumFreak25 Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 It could be for some mini-dive coaster, but I was thinking it might be for the CP dive machine. Which will most likely have bigger track. Maybe it's for Wonderlands new coaster?
John Peck Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Looks like Inverted or Wing Rider (Canada's Wonderland?) track from the way the ties are curved, but it's hard to tell so far away.
chickenbowl Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Looks like Inverted or Wing Rider (Canada's Wonderland?) track from the way the ties are curved, but it's hard to tell so far away. No, actually the ties aren't curved like inverted, they're straight like non-inverted track. Edit: Look at the way the ties meet the spine in this picture compared to the mystery track.

rcjp Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 ^^I wouldn't say inverted based on that lift piece in the back.
Projektion Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Personally, I'm going to hazard a guess at a tall wing coaster, since that piece in the background bares a striking resemblance to the piece at the base of Gatekeepers lift Image from cpfansite.com
Coastin Eric Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 ^^I wouldn't say inverted based on that lift piece in the back. Exactly. That's a pretty similar start to a hyper/wing rider from what it looks like.
jarmor Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 let the speculating begin... found this over at CC Someone over there found it here... http://www.kicentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/30844-red-track-spotted-at-batavia-steel-plant/
detigerfan Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 My guess will probably be a wing coaster. Valleyfair 2016 wing rider?
VF15 Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Found this other picture of the red track from the same website. Looks to me like hyper/giga coaster track, but that's just a guess.
rcjp Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 It's pretty tough to guess. I mean, all we know is that this isn't an invert, flyer or large dive machine so it theoretically could be a wing coaster, floorless, sitting, small dive machine, hyper/giga or even a standup.
Superbatboy Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Those track pieces look like inversions to me, I'm guessing Wing Rider or small dive machine with inversions
DanTheBooker Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Those track pieces look like inversions to me, I'm guessing Wing Rider or small dive machine with inversions I don't see anything that's definitely an inversion. Could just be transitions.
A.J. Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Those track pieces look like inversions to me, I'm guessing Wing Rider or small dive machine with inversions I don't see anything that's definitely an inversion. Could just be transitions. In the latest photo, you can see two pieces of track that have big extra parts to bolt supports onto, they look like they would be built at the base of a vertical loop or half loop.
canadianparkfan Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 (edited) Count me in as one of those hoping this goes to Canada's Wonderland. Not sure what coaster type this could be, but If I had to guess I'd say a wing rider ( ), or possibly something decently forceful, maybe a floorless with some kind of launch? Idk Edited April 13, 2015 by canadianparkfan
rcdude Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 Looks like parts to the rumored Canada's Wonderland wing coaster to me. Given that it will probably have more components than the rumored Cedar Point dive coaster, it makes sense that fabrication would start sooner for the wing coaster (plus this doesn't look like dive coaster track).
Paradox Posted April 12, 2015 Posted April 12, 2015 It's for the wingrider for China in 2016 at Huayi Brothers Movie Park at Suzhou
fraroc Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 If the track wasn't red and almost the same color as Diamondback, I'd totally say that this could point to the possibility of King's Island following suit of Carowinds and getting a B&M Giga to compliment the Hyper.
ZeroGravity55 Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 It's for the wingrider for China in 2016 at Huayi Brothers Movie Park at Suzhou I think we have a winner. Based on recent years, no North American parks track is manufactured this early in the season and put in the yard for shipment.
