[quote="JShafer"]I think I must retract my last comment .... this thing looks crazy up close !

Thanks for all the photos.
I wish this one was at Carowinds too. Ours is mainly hills while theirs looks more thrilling. It make ours look like an up-updated Thunder Road. I guess it gets down to what you prefer. I must ride both!

Updated thunder road? Nooooooo...with all these hills and diving turns thunder road is the last thing that comes to my mind lol...

So... The train(s) are at KD. But. PR isn't letting anyone see them. Well. Not til April that is.

Probably because they dont want to hear them complain about it.

First rider auction is up for 305.

[coasterbruh]

wow, their bid starts off at 100.00!

[KDcoasterMAN]

^ It did catch me off gaurd, though It is the second Giga in America. It would be more worth to wait in line then pay that much or more...

[chknwing]

Not looking good for I305, Doswell will be getting another heavey dose of the white stuff today and tommorrow.

[KDcoasterMAN]

^Don't remind me. If it continues to snow as it is, we'll never see our coaster open!

305's trains arrived.

Kings Dominion has posted two preview pics of the I305 trains.

I can see the promo commercial for this one now. Guy riding in the front seat with a hocky mask on (think 1980's band Quiet Riot) singing "BANG YOUR HEAD......I305 WILL DRIVE YOU MAD"

I'm glad I was wrong about the restraint... Looks like the Pilgrim's Plunge type of restraint to me.

I can't really see anything from those pictures, but I'll take your word for it and say awesome news!

[Jarsh]

You can see the part that attaches to your lapbar here in the middle of the seats:



It's very similar to the lapbar shown here on Pilgrim's Plunge:

Oooh. Nevermind.

Here is a picture of Maverick's restraint system that looks just like this aside from the vest thing on the front. You can't tell if there is a vest on these or not at the moment...
