The Ascent Has Begun

October 6, 2009

The base of the first drop has been assembled and the main supports for the lift hill are being erected. The news of this was delivered last Sunday night and by the time I got out to the work site Monday afternoon, almost 1/4 of the first turn was assembled! So far about 10 pieces of blaze red track have gone up on the first turn and it looks meaner than I had imagined. I can’t wait to fly around this turn at over 93 mph!

Thank you to everyone that submitted names for the I305 cranes. We have narrowed the list down to the following names:


  • Giga Crane & Coaster Carrier

  • Ralph & Martha

  • IntimaCrane 305 & Craneadator 305

  • Talladega & Daytona

  • Jr & Sr

  • Helga & Olga

  • Big Red & Fred

  • Thomson & Miller

  • Wallace & Gordon


Help vote for you favorite Crane names at kdpr@kingsdominion.com and we’ll officially name them next week.

Ride On Ride Warriors!
