coaster_junky Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 december 2, 1992: the year paramount bought the park, and i'm guessing when they started construction of top gun/flight deck ninja and Vortex opened too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KYCavsFan Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 1980. Nothing I guess. Beast was in 1979 and The Bat came in 1981. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diamondback96 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I predate KI by several years. Then what was opened in CI the year you were born? I was born in '96, so FoF. And all of these were built in 1996. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTCO Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 1994: Days of Thunder* opens, an exciting new NASCAR racing simulator is added in a previously undeveloped area between the turnaround points of The Racer tracks. Later in 1998 Days of Thunder would be changed to the Paramount Action FX Theater with several movies showing there. The Wild Animal Habitat theme area is renamed Adventure Village. Sunshine Turnpike and The Scrappy Slide are removed at end of the season http://www.KICentral.com/history/timeline.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI Kevin Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I already said this but Flight of Fear. More new rides in '96 include Mantis, Montu, and Highroller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 High Roller that was at Stratosphere, not the one at Valleyfair, which still exists, sort of. Not this one, either, also gone: http://www.rcdb.com/ig2404.htm?picture=1 Terpy, who suddenly feels very, very old... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there when I was just a wee little boy of maybe 3, and barely even remember it, but I did not ride it. Over spring break this year however, I rode all 3 of the remaining rides. Good, good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Well, I guess I will just have to be satisfied with having ridden two of those three High Rollers...as I doubt we will ever see that last one again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI Kevin Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Well, I guess I will just have to be satisfied with having ridden two of those three High Rollers...as I doubt we will ever see that last one again! Judging by what my sister and dad said, the only good part was the view. Other than that it wasn't that fun. You could just run around the observation tower for the same effect. However, the other 3 rides are probably the coolest rides I have ever ridden. If you are in Vegas, DO NOT PASS THESE RIDES UP!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Uh, I rode High Roller in Las Vegas. The one I didn't ride was this one: http://www.rcdb.com/ig2404.htm?picture=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
