For those going soon take the train ride from the front station to the mean streak station and you get a REALLY good view of the site.
Thanks for the tip. I am heading out to CP in 2 weeks, so I will try to remember to take some pics.

New concrete footers at CP!
Thanks for the tip. I am heading out to CP in 2 weeks, so I will try to remember to take some pics. If it walks like socialist, quacks like socialist, smells like a socialist, .... it's a socialist. Hope, and change we can believe in.
According to a friend of mine that works in the park...
"Its going to be big whatever it is. It goes allll the way out to millinnium island." Its going to be announced sometime in june. ---------2006---------

June is coming soon!!
 I can't wait for the announcement, if they plan on breaking another record i would be stunned!RIP: Trailblazer and Deja Vu...heck, even Alien Encounter

Im going to say this this is going to be an Intamin Looper, like that Collosus ride overseas.
I am changing my previous stance on this topic since we now know its Intamin track that has arrived. 
i'm surprised they will announce it this early. http://themeparkcritic.com/scripts/profile/ViewProfile.asp?ViewID=2909

They only reason i see for them announcing it already is if they are going to be starting vertical construction soon. Which, if that is the case, means it will be an enormous ride!

There is a teaser that says “Ya’ll up for some serious sidewindin’?” That reminds me of the Hershey Park add for Storm Runner.
It could be the prototype Intamin was working on. Their own 4-D coaster, that would fit the new teasers and the past ones too.

It kind a look like the 4d their building in Japan but it looks like they might make it taller than the Japanese one but then again I could be wrong. Does anyone knows when its going to open?
The one in Japan is a Arrow 4 rail track. No one knows when it will be open or what it is.

Did somebody say 4-d???? I still stand by my prediction of a 4-d, but I was wrong on the company it seems.

Intamin is a totally different 4-D than arrow, something to keep in mind.
the cars are freeflipping, and the ride itself (at least their test model) was rather small, just a simple loop (uses lims for acceleration). I'm not 100% sure if those cars can navigate turns of any sort Favorite Wood Coasters: The Voyage, Ravine Flyer II, Thunderhead, Balder
Favorite Steel: Voltron Nevera, Steel Vengeance, Expedition GeForce, Olympia Looping Parks visited: 232, Coasters Ridden: Steel: 894, Wood: 179, Total: 1073
^Well, with that in mind, I don't think it is going to be a 4D. I guess i'm still gonna say a rocket or an Aqua Trax by Intamin. Has anyone been able to find anything from Sandusky's records. They had to have gotten a design approved before construction, is there any way of finding that out?

Any other pics? It's been a week since the last pics and nobody has seen anymore track being unloaded?
Love me or Hate me, see if i give a damn

It can be a Mega-looper from Intamin and break the inversion record. It can also be an Intamin Invert, but I doubt that one. There a few different things it could be right now.

So I went through the OnPoint! Blogs and found this little quote...
We’ll wrap things up with a few words of wisdom: The path always taken is not necessarily the best.
I got it!
The first coaster to actually jump track? Broadway Joe
^Like that book Jumper?! Gosh, I sure hope opening day goes better than the one in that book.

Do we have anymore info? I wonder if it'll be a yet another launch coaster.
YEA!!!! THREE MONTHS TO GO!!!!!!!
Just a guess...
BRAKE RUN STATION/TRANSFER LAUNCH TOP HAT & TURN Or it could be just the opposite and have an ending like MF. It would launch where i have the transfer/brake run now and then turn left into the pond, make a tight turn a round, and go into some type of hill . http://themeparkcritic.com/scripts/profile/ViewProfile.asp?ViewID=2909

I say that they BLUE is going to be a turning drop The GREEN and RED are going to be 2 straight loops The YELLOW is going to have a 0 g-roll Also, the layout looks to include interlocking corkscrews Then in the mid around the mass of footers will have a boomerang turn Then it will probably have 5 more inversions somewhere within the circuit making it the coaster with the most inversions of 11.
