^Thats why the train will have a new experience! New for 2017: Midget Wrestling shows for the train! While you were expecting to have a calm ride to Soak City, be prepared to watch as heads fly! Fun for the whole family! This would be a great addition with the picnic coaster! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

That actually brings up a good point: Outlaw Run has a really... odd layout, to say the least. It is often considered one of the top wood coasters. Also, for all of you people worried about length, it is only 2,937 feet long and 107 feet high. Using the terrain though, it has a 162 foot drop. I could see KI getting a similar ride from RMC, but it seems like KI's layout has much more potential! Here's the layout for those that don't know. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

So I was told that KI spelled "Watch For Falling Trees" in sticks in the work site and that it can be seen from Diamondback. Can anybody confirm that? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Back on the height requirement thing previously mentioned, what is the height requirement for most RMCs and most GCIs, respectively? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

It wouldn't sell YOU a pass, apparently, but as long as a coaster looks fun and interesting enough to ride, people will come. The same amount of people that would come for an RMC would come for a GCI, because they don't care about the manufacturer.So what your saying is if Joe blow is watching the news and they show a traditional wooden coaster that will make him take his family to the park? I believe if Joe blow is watching the news and sees a hybrid doing flips, "top gun stalls", etc he will be more likely to take his family to the park. I agree that most of the GP would much rather have an RMC than a GCI, but the difference between the GP and enthusiasts is that enthusiasts know that both exist. Most of the GP does not know what an RMC is, especially if they do not live around one. Yes there is one at KK, but a lot of people around here have never been there. Heck, many don't even know KK is open again! What I'm trying to say is that, yes, they would enjoy an RMC more, but if they don't know that RMC exists, they would just as happily accept a GCI. To the GP, for the most part, anything new is good. Whether it be GCI or RMC, as Don said, "People will come" Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

^Something I've thought for a while due to that is that either a)KI will get 2 coasters (less likely) or A whole area expansion (as many people have already said). The second option seems much more likely (Still very unlikely though). I would absolutely love to get a new GCI (or RMC) and a bunch of flats! KI needs some flats, and it would make people doubly happy to add them with a coaster at the same time! I don't think this will happen, but it's been in the back of my mind bugging me since we've seen the layout. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Agreed. Could "tallest and fastest" wood coaster be at KI again? Probably not, but that would be insane. Either way, I hope it's fairly big, fairly fast, and fairly long! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

^Great Ride! Do GCI's have good capacity? I've heard it wasn't terrible but at a park like KI, would it be a good people mover like the B&Ms or not? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

After a lot of thought (and some disappointment over the giga) it seems like a GCI would be a great fit for KI, especially in the location it is in. I've heard nothing but positive reviews about Prowler, Renegade, and Gold Striker, and I would venture to believe KI would get one even bigger than these three. Hopefully it will have ejector airtime, something i believe is lacking at KI. Either way, you'll see me riding and reriding it next year! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

But the difference is that these blueprints were found months in advance while Banshee's were leaked days before. This leaves room for change. Also, someone mentioned that their architect buddy said that this was a common thing for clearing bushes or something. Even though facts may be leaning one way, I'm waiting until the park tells us exactly what is being built before I fully believe it. Also, GavPenn, please don't be upset at people for people trying to decode, as this is a decoding thread. Just because there are leaked blueprints doesn't mean that's exactly what we're going to get. Heck, we might also get some flats! All we know is (maybe) the layout of the ride. We don't even know a single stat or even the designer. There's still a lot of decoding left!

Honestly, if this coaster is launched, has high banks, and perhaps an inversion or two, it might end up being one of my top coasters. Perhaps Beastgal was right in that this will be like the Cowboy Coaster, but will be wooden. I would be off the wall ecstatic if that was the case! ^Yes I know that the possibility of this is incredibly low, but hey, we can all hope for something [emoji13] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
