I do think a white and black color scheme would look cool, and anyone who passes Clermont Steel Fabricators regularly, do you know what color the tracks actually were?

silver2005 25084 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 How about black track, silver rails and cross-ties with blue supports? 2 Link to post Share on other sites

silver2005 25084 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I'm gonna go out on a limb here- I wouldn't mind a deep shade of purple like Mako or Apollo's Chariot. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

FirefighterENG44 271 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Perhaps a nice Salmon color...soft on the eyes and not too feminine. Says “hey! We’re comfortable with our sexuality.” Haha...sorry couldn’t help myself. I don’t care what color it is as long as we get one (a giga). It could be pink and I’d still ride it (no pun intended) 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Maverick44 7641 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I like black and blue as well. Afterburn colors ring a bell. Link to post Share on other sites
flightoffear1996 4110 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Rust brown color would be awesome. Something like Tennessee Tornado Link to post Share on other sites
Creed Bratton 14505 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 ^^ Cedar Fair may have gotten a discount on that color....with Valravn/Yukon Striker/Copperhead Strike! How about tye-dye TBH a yellow, green or even purple track would be great IMO. Link to post Share on other sites

Bruzer 13 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I doubt I'm the first to think this but this has been on my mind since the new year. Has anyone else heard the 20 year theory? Link to post Share on other sites

Has anyone else heard the 20 year theory? Yeah plenty of people have talked about about that. Personally I think it’s really just a coincidence considering Kings Island really needed both a Hyper rollercoaster and another large steel looping coaster. Link to post Share on other sites

Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk That Kings Island received the model of rollercoaster Cedar Point added 20 years earlier. Magnum XL - Diamond back, Raptor - Banshee, both installments 20 years after Cedar Point. Now the theory is 2020 for a giga since it’d be 20 years since Mill Force. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
KevM86 223 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 So 2027 is when I should be expecting KIs blitz coaster to open up? That is quite a coincidence though. Sent from my Pixel 2 using Tapatalk 1 Link to post Share on other sites

CF will once again feature a ride from the past, but what was old is new again. They just haven't announced it yet because the contracts for the naming rights haven't been inked. #GiGaconfirmed #TopGun2020KI #kidding #parody #parodyinghashtags 2 Link to post Share on other sites

KevM86 223 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 I would be fine with a Mack blitz or an Intamin blitz. If we get B&M giga in 2020 that makes our last 3 steel coasters all B&M. I don't have anything against B&M, but I would like to see them work with some other manufacturers eventually. Copperhead Strike is a good sign that will happen.
