Day 64 update

Its been two weeks since I was at the park last and a lot more pieces of track and supports have arrived in the parking lot.



Some of the supports that I saw today at the park look just like the supports that were delivered to the park on June 2nd and then packed back up and disappeared. Wonder what happened? What ever happened it looks like they found there way back to Kings Dominion.

Also there are quite a few footers at the park, and what looks to be the foundation of the break run / station. There is also a 30 to 60 foot deep hole they have dog right next to the station and it looks like they are pouring footers down in that. It looks like it has something to do with the lift motor or something with the lift hill.

I am also going to go out on a limb and stay with my original thought that we will not see the coaster expand any more then the foot print we have already. They are now putting dirt back on the hill where they were taking dirt. There also is no more trees coming down, so I think we have seen all there is with the foot print.

I have contacted the park to see if people will be able to come to the media announcement on August 20th. At this time they have not answered my email, but when they do you guys will be the first to know.

Hey, great news! I was looking around on cedarfair.com, and found a maintenance job open for KD. The requirements were all looking normal, except THIS: "Ability to climb to heights of 350 feet"
So, since nothing in the park is even close to that, I'm pretty sure this new coaster is gonna come in at 350 feet then!!! yes!
