Hawaiian Coasters 325

And another problem, Cedar Fair doesn't work with Intamin anymore. And after Volcano's closure, it sure looks like they won't work with them anytime soon. An RMC topper track woodie on the other hand would work pretty well at KI and they could shoot for wooden coaster records and try and compete with Voyage, El Toro, or Lightning Rod for best wooden coaster. But I think that's later down the line and 2020 is a B&M (hopefully giga).

^^So like Raging Bull? I would actually kinda like to see an over bank that passes over the station

^^then where will the station go?

Basically in the land clearing itself. I also saw some pink markers around the trees (which Amusement Insiders said that it marks where to stop clearing)

I'm at the park tonight and rode Racer. I saw some stakes in the ground and I found one in the grassy area in The Racer near Action Theater. Kinda interesting.

An idea I thought of is it's there because with the new attraction, they'll probably be ripping up that concrete and putting in pavers.

The "marker" is on CoasterBob62's video from opening day this year

I believe they could fit a giga there if they did it right. If it's a wing coaster, that's one large wing coaster.

You should come up later this afternoon. That's when the rain and stuff should clear up and will just be cloudy.

Be careful, the weather is kinda nasty down here (I live just a few minutes from the park). But, it should clear up this afternoon. I actually plan on coming up this evening for my first visit this year.

^^Yukon Striker track was labeled DM-G

I think that MCT is hyper/giga coaster track. I think MC stands for mega coaster. If you look back at Yukon Striker construction, the track for YS was labeled DMG.

I know this won't happen, but I think it would be really cool if they hooked up the station lights and at night, they could switch the lights off and turn on blacklight and have paint on the floor that glows in blacklight. I think it would be nice and would go with a space/xbase theme. Just my thoughts.

I'm not so sure if I want a Top Gun/Flight Deck color scheme. Maybe gray and blue would be nice imo. Or maybe gray and hot pink.

^^glow in the dark paint would actually be really cool! Especially if they themed it to Aliens/space.

@IndyGuy4KI here you go!

I decided to make another giga concept with a new color scheme.

Found this video that was uploaded in May of 2013 for Banshee construction. As you can see, they are pouring footers for the station that time. So, hopefully we should start seeing footers being poured soon.

Using @sixohdieselrage photo, I decided to create a new giga concept using an amazing computer picture editor called Pixlr Editor. I give you Mega Force!

^^I'm starting to think red isn't likely since they aren't clearing that direction. If they start clearing over there, then maybe it could change my mind. I think blue is most likely.

I don't think we should retheme FOF. I think it's fine the way it is imo. I could see them adding some new decor in the queue line to tie into the new coaster though.

I'm guessing you should watch this interview with Rob Decker. He clearly explains the difference between B&M hypers and gigas.

I'm guessing an RMC and/or a Mack double launch. If KI gets an RMC, I want it to be a ground up topper track woodie that takes back the tallest and fastest wooden coaster records. A Mack double launch I want to see larger than Copperhead Strike and I want to see it use the terrain kinda like how Helix does.

That may be true, but it still interests me on why they kept the old queue. Maybe they'll use it as an "extra queue" for opening year because they'll probably need it especially for opening weekend if there is nice weather and the crowds are huge. And then they'll build a queue at the bottom of the stairs you would go down to the station for Firehawk. Just my thoughts.
