Banshee Construction Progress
I think its the same picture but the track color is different. Took me a few takes to realize it.

More supports going up under the lift hill.

Smaller support going up coming out of the lift hill loop.

They spent most of the afternoon yesterday moving track from the back lot up the the front so hopefully we'll see some good progress today.

They still have another set of supports to install for the dive loop that will be right at the fence.

It's colored. Look at the two supports going into the first loop.

If I remember correctly, they hung a tree above Paul Brown Stadium when the last canopy section was installed. They said it was to ward off the evil spirits. If that is the case I'm not sure that would fit with this ride.

They're assembling the last 2 pieces of the lift hill now.

Who needs a crane when you have this guy.

Looks like theres a nest being built on top of the webcam.

The other side of that support is going up now and the top A-frame section is already assembled on the ground.

200% on chrome looks best to me but I keep wanting to drag the screen to get a different angle.

A Normal KI PTR: 8/25/13
I went up Sunday with my 2 boys and we walked on just about everything. Our longest wait of the day was about 10 minutes at Larosa's. That being said, the only think we/I didn't ride was FoF and FH - those were the longest lines (30-45 min) and I didn't want to make them wait when they are not tall enough to ride them. Probably the best time I've ever had at KI and some good QT with the boys.

Looks to me like they built a stage behind the fence near the mysterious "blue thing". That white box truck has been there all day. I'm guessing that that fence will be coming down tomorrow.

The Banshee and The Bat. Same track, different trains. One forward, one backwards.

A question regarding Fast Lane passes. I don't think the Fast Lane was around when DB opened. At least not for DB. I remember the regular line and the singles line. Do you think KI will immediately offer this "new attraction" in their Fast Lane lineup or do you think they will hold off a bit and ease it in?

I thought I'd chime in on all this. I don't think the prints are a diversion at all. I think they are as real as they get. Just because they were "leaked" and Don tweeted a link to an article about them doesn't mean they are fake. I think they were intentionally leaked to create some buzz outside of the general park going crowds. Think about it. The announcement date was announced, the plans were leaked and boom - the coaster in "trending" on yahoo. I had my suspicions about KI giving the okay to leak them but once channel 5 showed the plans and the gentleman they spoke to hinted around about what it "could" be I was convinced. The only things the plans show us is the layout, some inversions and that it's an invert if you want to believe that. Other than that they don't show what record(s) it will break. It just creates more buzz outside of this forum.

I'm still trying to figure out why it's on a Thursday. I have a final that night and kids have school Friday so I'll be at home hitting refresh all night.

Somebody above me mentioned the VIP announcement. Did anyone notice the "pew seating"? I would think it would be a whole lot easier to bring in some fold up chairs. A funeral perhaps?
