If this has not been mentioned before I walked through LP campground and you can get a good view of the track over the hill.

I try my hardest to bring you the most up-to-date information on the next dueling, 400 foot coaster at CP.

And I have heard from even more unreliable sources that this could very well be a tri-dueling coaster. I guess they are going to run 2 trains on each track. Now I understand the blue track folks! This coaster just keeps getting better! ;)

Everyone is talking about the 16th coaster coming to CP. The threads will explode if CP is secretly hiding a second coaster. Hey, it may happen. What about a kid coaster? Six Flags in California did it, why couldn't CP?

Portions of the camper parking near Lighthouse Point also provide a nice view of the track without tresspassing. That's where I sat for 2 hours the day we first saw the track watching them unload it from the truck.

I would highly suggest you ask my permission before you edit, or use pieces of my photos to edit another.

If you look at the second big yellow tower the bottom attaches to the footer and the places that support the track are only about a foot above the footer. So where the track is attached to this tower, the track is very close to the ground, maybe returning to the station.

I think those new towers that are like cylinders, There are like 3 of them. They are most likely to attach to the big supports. I dont think the track is gonna go so low

Yeah, I think you're right. I also noticed that two of the contact points look like support beams, judging by the size of WT, but the third contact point looks bigger, about the size of a track contact point, again judging by WT. So, I'm thinking that there will be two support beams at this point and one track support.

The way i see how those supports connect to the main support....We're looking at a Huge and Complex Structure.

I might be going crazy, but after looking at the newest pictures on virtual midway, it looks like the supports are white. I remember seeing the tan colored supports in early pictures, but these new ones are white
