  1. I've only been to Coaster Stock once. That was last year. Does this event normally sell out? I have a buddy that wants to go and he has a CF Platinum Pass and he's getting a membership to GOCC so he can go. He won't be able to order tickets for Coaster Stock until mid-April. Will it be sold out by then or does KI even cap the event. Thx for the info guys.
  2. I'd love to see Cedar Fair squire Busch Gardens Tampa. I wouldn't mind them getting rid of the animals, but that's me. That would give them a foothold in the Florida market. Plus that's on all year market. Never know with the issues that Seaworld inc is having. I wouldn't want them to get Williamsburg because KD is right beside it. But if you want a market with no competition than look no farther than Denver Colorado. Elitch Gardens or Lakeside park. No major competition in that area at all. I'm sure the citizens of Denver would love a park similar to Kings Island. Cedar Fair would have to expand these parks to make that happen, but I think it would be cool.
  3. I'm super excited for this ride, but I'm also kinda one of those 300 ft people lol. I was hoping those 2 rides were gonna be installed Giga first then the GCI. But I haven't complained once because I know were getting an incredible ride. Can't wait to check out some Volcano's myself around Halloween. Only my "FURY"ous weekend comes a few weeks sooner"31st" of this month. I'll also be "running from outlaws" in late June while on vacation lol. Have a good trip buddy!!!
  4. I remember reading somewhere that CF has to follow the ride manufacturers requirements that the trains run forward. It was some sort of state law if I'm remembering correctly. I think what the state law meant was all amusement parks have to follow the requirements of the manufacturer & they say the trains should be running forwards. Now this may be way off or it could be spot on. I'm not sure. But I really thing I remember reading this not to long ago. Nevermind my statement, I actually just seen where Don posted on hear saying it was the parks decision.
  5. Maybe something like this could be designed for that area. It would certainly fit.
  6. That's what I thought. Seeing a few of these comments made me second guess my self.
  7. A more unique version of an S&S 4-D free fly would be fine with me. I would like to see a better version than the model Six Flags have cloned.
  8. I went solo last year, are you allowed to bring a guest this year or do they have to be a coaster club member as well? I'm a member of ACE.
  9. I wouldn't mind seeing Congo Falls go. I think Kings Island could find a much better attraction for that area.
  10. I'm excited for this years pass holder preview. So excited I can't wait so I'm using my Cedar Fair Platinum Pass to attend Carowinds passholder preview night in 3 weeks. Never done it before, but I have been to the park. Other than Fury Carowinds has nothing on Kings Island!!!
  11. I know it won't happen but I wish the ride workshops were located back by the green house. That would be some prime land for future development.
  12. I'm pretty sure Kings Island has around 300 acres of undeveloped land to work with. I'm not sure how much the park wants to expand the undeveloped land. I think it's around 350 acres right now . So there is plenty of room to develop a more land for future attractions without removing something. I also realize it will become more difficult to expand the park towards the Little Miami River due to the change in terrain levels.
  13. White track, with red & black supports. Black track, with red and white supports. That's how I'd like to see it done. I do agree CF has a lot of red coasters.
  14. I think it would be awesome if Kings Island partnered with the Reds and honor The Big Red Machine. It would be nice to have a 340ft Giga Named The Big Red Machine.
  15. I'd love to see some sort of a dark ride & for KI's 50th anniversary receive a world record breaking GIGA!!
  16. I love The Beast, But I'd trade her for Fury 325. I'd did both rides in back to back weekends during October.
  17. I'd love to see a Giga with Orange track, Black supports, with Orange, Black, & Grey trains.
  18. I've heard a few different times that the reason Dorney Park hasn't been expanded is due to the housing that's close to the park. I'm not sure if there is any truth to this, but I've seen people on other forums saying that Dorney Park gets slot of noise complaints. I would think having whole communities complaining about noise levels may scare CedarFait off somewhat from investing in the dry park. Like I said this is just hearsay. Have you guys ever heard this?
  19. I def want the B&M Giga. Having rode Fury 325 & Maverick multiple times this season, my vote on both polls is them B&M Giga. I really hope it happens sooner rather than later. But I wouldn't be surprised if KI gets the Triotech sometime after MT but before 2022. I think Rob Decker wants to get KI a B&M Giga for their 50th
