Intimidator 305 - Kings Dominion Giga coaster

[pkiknex25]

The waterpark is on both sides of Rebel Yell. Would there be room for that L shaped layout STC suggested?

There's a strip parallel to the lift of Anaconda that extends to the turnaround of RY and beyond that a bit I think.

The whole thing in the UK with health and saftey makes me laugh.

The force Alton to remove The Black Hole, yet let you queue under the launch area of Rita and Stealth. That would be really safe if a cable snapped.

Lovely guys at CoasterCrew with a little more insight into the track.

He needs a job. And a life.

"it's huuuuuge it's huuuge".

F'ing hell its a rollercoaster not a porn movie..

 

[Snoo]

Or maybe he is just excited for an actual good coaster to come to his home park?

He could be worse.. he could be a Cedar Point fanboy?

Just got back from Kings Dominion & I thought I'd share these photos (even if you've seen similar ones elsewhere).

These first two of the site were taken from the top of the drop tower.

These next three of the site were taken from the top of the observation tower.

These two are of the track taken from the top of the observation tower.

Here are lots of track photos taken up close & personal.

Sorry I didn't have time to do anything but upload these.
Gotta run...

That was a wasted 15 minutes of my life. :roll:

 

[Snoo]

LOL! Enjoy it Roody?

 

[pkiknex25]

Hey Jerry, something with the pics went wrong. At least for me.

EDIT: Never mind...

 

[Snoo]

Fail.

I'm very interested in this ride because Intamin has been putting some intense rides out in recent years. I'd like to see how that works out for this coaster.

More land clearing. *in coasterboy voice* it also looks to me *adjusts glasses* that those smaller pieces could be used for station track.

 

[Antinos]

I wonder if those crates near the yellow supports are empty, and if they aren't, what's in them?

 

[Uncle Arly]

I love the piece of Tri-rail style new track!

 

[monkeyonatable]

I agree with Uncle Arly, at first I thought those track pieces were Dog Ugly, but now I think they are starting to grow on me

 

[Snoo]

I can't put my finger on it.. but the tri looks like another manufacture.. any ideas?

 

[A-Kid]

They remind me of Arrow suspended coasters. The ones without double-spines.

 

[Dave]

Double barrel tri-track, nice quirky name I think.

Similar to what S&S used on Powder Keg I think...

 

[Blaze]

So what they have done is take the old tri-rail, and inflate the bottom rail into a huge bubble, and then for the sections under more pressure, added another bubble.

Does seem similar to Powder Keg, and I can't decide whether I like it or not.

Vekoma FTW!

To be honest, when I first saw the pictures, I thought to myself, "what the heck are they doing? I thought Intamin was building this not S&S Power?"
