Exciting stuff! I have always been a fan of two-tone color schemes like this. With this coaster coming and hopefully the ones at COTAland opening, I think a 2026 Texas trip is on the horizon for me.

One thing I've found out about the new Giga-Dive coming in. We can tell from the pics that the track has 10 bolts going across. This is indicative of the 8 to 10 across seating. The track for 7 across and lower "Mini" Dives typically has 6 bolts going across. Wrath Of Rakshasa track has the 6 bolts.

Interesting color scheme. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

With those colors I think we should call it the Reeses Death Dive!🤣

I will be following the construction of this massive new coaster in its entirety! Stay tuned!

I can tell from those track pieces that the coaster is forceless and shaky.

How can you tell that before construction has even begun. These are only the first few track pieces, there's a whole lot more on the way. And we don't even know the full extent of the layout yet! It will likely top speeds of 90mph+, probably a more forceful ride than Yukon, or Wrath.

That's some pretty forceful sarcasm that you didn't pick up.

At first I actually thought he was serious, that was before I realized he was being funny.

BTW, here are some more pics of the track credited to JB Thrills.

Notice the 10 across bolts on the track pieces! This is wider track than Wrath Of Rakshasa's 6 across. Most likely 8-10 across seating!

Manufacturer: ......"Uh yeah, man, this thing is a real piece of crap! A 309FT Giga-Dive Coaster! Can you believe that! This has to be the worst idea B&M ever came up with" It’s gonna be forceless and shaky as hell!"

Over Texas: ......"We don't want that!!! Send that Sh#%$ to St. Louis!"

Manufacturer: "Sorry, but corporate says you gotta take it! They have something else planned for St Louis. We think it's a new type of mule go-round."

Over Texas: ........"Well, ok! We'll put in the Spain section. La Vibora and El Diablo were getting to be a pain in the ass anyway."

Manufacturer: ....."Oh by the way, the color is two tone..... brown and yellow!"

Over Texas: ......."Effin WHAT!!!

😅🤣😂

If by "interesting" you mean "wild dream that will not happen," maybe.  It's far too long - almost 2,000 feet longer than the longest existing B&M dive and long enough to be in the top 25 in the world.  I get being optimistic, but try to be realistic here.
