  1. I have been on The Racer twice with deer inside the track area. Heading to the turn around and praying they would stay where they are or get out. Both times, they had evacuatred thank goodness...
  2. Yeah, that is what I meant. It is good to be able to keep up with construction progress via the colored image where it is complete.
  3. I'm hoping we still get the updated B&W with color for what track has been installed.
  4. web cams down, conspiracy?? ha ha ok, back up again. So looks like clifford is going to start helping out again as he is facing the the dive loop and the vertical loop. Question: so why store some of the track pieces sooo far away? Even if they are for later parts, they will have to haul from there to other work area. Why not just drop off in the valley area?
  5. So what coaster is that on the KI Halloween commercial?
  6. looks like lots more blue supports arriving today. Would guess we shall see more assembly of track again soon.
  7. So they have just about installed all the visible track on site. Wonder when the next big shippment will arrive? Cant wait to see the first loop around the lift go up.
  8. Yes the old shoes are (were) at Kentucky Kingdom when were there years ago. I saw them and realized we had to relive old memories. I am not sure if they are still there however. They were in the back area of the park.
  9. where will the lift hill motor building be located?
  10. Well lots more blue supports arriving today. Would expect vertical contruction of those soon as not much space left to drop them :-)
  11. It is impressive they are working three areas now. Station, lift hill and final approach. I figured it would do like Gatekeeper and go from station thru the course flow and then finish at the brake run.
  12. Would 'Amusement Dark' have to do with anything CP might be announcing? Heard their are rumors of a new dark ride.
  13. Just curious (shaggy lives near by), are the old shoes from KI still on the Kentucky Kingdom property? We rode those on Easter many years ago when KK was still in operation. Actually rode most rides there. Not a big fan of T2 and hoping the sisters get a good makeover.
  14. And the first to report what they find is......
  15. And since we see no other work/clearing beyond the area behind AE (the valley), do we assume that is as far out as this ride will go?
  16. so all you ride builders, what are those new large footers near the fence for?
  17. Raptor II - The Sequel
  18. Were these possibly just light poles for highway lights or such? Sounds more like that than supports for a ride.
  19. Where is our aerial picture person? Some one needs to do a flyover so we can map out the footers.
  20. We need current pics. I am reading of lots of new work and would like to see some latest pics....
  21. You have to ride tensely, but if you don't, you'll end up with bruises This is why I dont ride..

  23. But please use the I305 type harnesses. I have not ridden I305 but have Maverick. I hear CP will not change out the harness but if they did I would ride it again. Do not like the head bashing. Even my kids complain about it.
  24. Yeah, I have done many tours in FOF and seen all the 'stuff' in there. As for the shed, I would say it is cleared out when/if that area gets used. I still believe 2014 ride is not a big as a footprint as some believe but hopefully wrong. But really, when do you just get rid of stuff. Some of it is 'historical' for the park but is just rusting outside so why keep it all. They just need to build a big storage building and store whatever they keep there if it is worthwhile to keep. Hey they tried selling SOB track pieces, so how about bolts. Anyone know really how many pieces of SOB were sold? I did my time on that ride and way over it.
