When you are in the station its soo funny. You hear people gasping and things like that. "Is that loop on this ride" "Noo! it cant be!" Then I break it to them that it is. My neihbors that are in second grade wouldnt ride Adv. Express becuase they thought that SOB was AE.

Longest, TR TR the year it opened. I wasnt into rides back then so it was a disapointment.

I actually took that really quickly, The elevator opened, and its around the corner from the view of SOB. And from DZ you would get a lift shot.

Thats from the tower with about 9.5 zoom. Yes, the tower is open now. I got alot of pics from the tower on saturday.

If you think about it, it would be cheaper to rehab King Cobra then to go out and buy a B&M stand up. I took this picture: (I gave Ryan the use of it so I am asuming I am allowed to post it, correct me if I am wrong)

I rode it about 3 times one night in 00'. Belive it or not it is my favorite coaster. I just cant get over the thrill of going down the first drop into a loop, STANDING UP!

I do think its possible for S&S or Vekoma to put their hardwear on the track. And you never know, but PKI could put it back in. I'm a KC fan. At Kings Island today I heard people talking about it saying that they loved it.

The track is gone. I took a picture of it today and I belive Boddah will have it up soon. I bet you its being rehab'd.

Uncle Henry, I belive the WT at CP is the final product. The other were prototypes making sure that the design worked well.

I think a nice thing that they could add would be some new parking area signs. You know, the ones that say "Face/Off" then a number so you know where you are parking. Also, Some new lights.

I had no trouble with the lines! I dont see how others did :-p

PKI, SFMM (PLEASE!) Geauga Lake, CP.

Oh, A cobra roll on a stand up, That would rock!!! \m/

We need another woodie to FIRMLY put ourself out infront for most wooden track in a park. PKI already has that record but we need to keep it! I say a woodie that ISNT somthing "Beast".

The rumor was that the husband pushed her out :-P

Unless its, wooden, 3 times longer than The Beast, and all 300ft above ground :-p

If you cant belive it, Today is the 2 month date from when PKI closed for the season! Just a few more left! You can make it!

Ehrm, B&M standup, No. Maybe PKI could get Vekoma to make a stand-up ride That would be awsome. But It isnt going to happen, We all know it. Personally King Cobra being the only stand up I've been on, they are good. I will probably be going to Kentucky to ride Chang soon.

If you know me from EPKI, I LOVE KING COBRA! On a trip in 2000 I must of ridden it 6 times in a row at 5. It was the BEST! I was young then but tall enough to ride (I'm 14 now and am 6'1") It wasnt Perticularly comfortable on the "trick track" section but the helix was awsome becuase you were laying on your side, but the thing was, you were only held up by the OSTR's. And...THE OSTR's DIDNT HURT!!! I Swear!!! The drop was nice too. I remember the M&M's machine on the way in...and the stairs leading to the platform...and the weird overhead station control room.

PKIC, On coasterworld news again... http://www.rctcompetition.com/forums/index...wtopic=4976&hl=

We could get, Like Klockster said, a Giga coaster, the platform could be by FoF and could go by Beast, Wife Of Beast!

About my above statement, "In addition, the Son of Beast represents the largest single investment in the history of Paramount's Kings Island and tops off a two-year $40 million capital expansion program at the 364-acre theme park." -From the SOB fact sheet (http://www.pki.com/corpinfo_press_son_of_beast_fact_sheet.jsp) That rounds up my statement about that the cost for DZ, F/O AND SOB equal 40 mil. This was also for the change to AZ from the other theme.

Ohhh Must...See...New...Things...That....SOB_TOM...Mentioned...

The 40 mill. that Klockster said, that includes Face Off, DZ, and SOB. That was the 2 year change to AZ. This dosent include Duhlee becuase that was put in in 2003. The origonal AZ, Face Off, DZ, TG, King Cobra. Then With KC leaving, that added SS and Duhlee.

10 more days till Construction Tour!!! I wont be attending but I've been assured by Don that hes gona take LOADS of pictures and I hope other people do too!! I really want to see what it will look like if they are as far as PCW now. As for that guy saying about the B&M track, even if it was real, I'de think it was a mistake!!!
