Back on topic though, the layout for this thing looks great, and with the new B&M mega trains the airtime should be amazing in the front and back seats. Can't wait to see some official stats and artwork from Cedar Fair.

Uhh...is there even steel on the ground yet? ;)
Anyway, I'm going to KI in a few weeks, and hopefully I can take some pics and possibly post them here.
God I can't wait for this...

I'm really excited to see the official rendering of the coaster to see what the elements within the layout look like. Should be one hell of a fun coaster, and you can't go wrong with that. I'm sure we'll get plenty of coverage on this one, so I look forward to that as well.

i agree with jakizle -- this looks like its gonna be amazing!!

I've actually been waiting for so long to experience a b&m hyper. Now i'm gonna get the chance, and from the looks of it, it will be a great hyper...

it looks like it will be fast as hell!

Well, that's boring. No twists! ;)
But seriously, I'm really excited for this ride and will definitely follow it through the whole of the construction.

Not much yet... But I like the color.

It's too similar to their Firehawk.

^ I agree way to much like Firehawk, but interesting.

maybe supports will be an interesting color

With that colour track, I would have silver supports. We'll have to wait and see what they use I guess!

Screamscape has reported that the supports are a tan color. It looks like Cedar Fair is going for another "Maverick-style" color scheme.

(Scroll down to sidebar with the pictures)

I guess thats not too bad. The red is more maroon and tan- whiter.

The track colour is very similar to Nemesis Inferno, which has a great colour scheme. Tan is a bad idea for the supports i think.

then it's a good thing there aren't tan supports. Screamscape says "mustard yellow" which I think is a pretty good description based on the pictures.

It says that his "guess about the Mustard Yellow supports were also wrong," meaning that was his guess before the pictures came.

It's bright tan, I don't really like it. But if it's called Mustang, and it's got the same scheme as Maverick, it sort of make sense.

The ride has been announced! http://www.coastercravers.net/ <-- Got a main page update for all of you to view. This ride looks awesome!

Alan, that main page post changes all the time.

Here is the actual topic for Dimondback. http://www.coastercravers.net/news.php?news=437

Yeah, that is true. It should be sitting there for a while though.

Wow, I'm really impressed with this ride, I figured it would just be a normal B&M, but it actually looks outstandingly fun. Its got fast turns, a wicked turnaround, nice drop, and the watersplash should be a blast. I also noticed that there weren't any trims on the video, which is a plus.

BUT: wtf is with the Golden Lift supports?

There are trims. I saw one set in the video.
