Klabergian Empire

Best way I can explain it is they are kinda like the systems on Flying Ace Areial Chase's lift hill, only they are used in the station/ before the lift hill/ transfer track area(s).

My reasoning:

I REALLY REALLY REALLY don't want to see an RMC take Vortex's place. Period.

Gordon Ramsey has entered the chat.

If I remember correctly, they said the painted the lift supports on Diamondback yellow to draw more attention to it.

I made several corrections to the post I made.

They replaced footers on Vortex?

A stunt demolition derby would be pretty cool to watch. Especially in the mid-summer months.

Gotta say if they set of fireworks and streamers just for riding the dang ride THAT IS MONEY WELL SPENT!!!!!

I come from the future. Cedar Fair will purchase Kings Island and WinterFest will return in 2017. Because of the innovations in technology, it will have over 5 million lights and the Eiffel Tower WILL be a giant tree again. And the event will cover most of the park.

Ya know, I kinda want to see this happen. Not gonna lie...

You could probably build a shell similar to the Arrow ones...

Not bad! Not bad at all! If I can get at least 10 names, I will make a poll and whichever wins the highest percentage will be the coasters name! Submit any and all coaster name ideas!

Can I get some name ideas for the coaster? Thanks!

I wonder if the will demo the lift hill or the part near Rivertown first...?

Alrighty folks! Below is the layout of the custom Arrow looper. The train will exit the station directly to the lift hill. After plummeting, the train will enter a vertical loop. Afterwards, the train will go back up again to the turn around which will have a corkscrew incorporated in it. Next, the trains will enter 2 more vertical loops. Finally, the train will hit the brake run and return to the station. The name of the coaster you might ask...? Here is a (poorly) drawn image of what I will be (attempting) to build:

#weknowwhatsintheshed

WAIT!!!!! WHEN WAS Vortex A LIVING CREATURE?????!!!!! Hahahahaha!!! I have soooo many questions... (just giving you a rough time)

The first loop was taller than the second one. Don't have the specific measurements for both, just something I knew.

Ok, so its been since literally last year since I've been on this thread. And while building the model, a tragic event unfolded. I do NOT have enough Knex to build a scale working model of Vortex (I realized that when I was building the Batwing (which for those who don't know was the first section I was going to build on it)). Not only that, I just haven't had a whole lot of time recently so construction was going to be hampered anyways. BUT I do have enough parts to build a roller coaster of (still) a decent size. And considering the design I have worked out last weekend, I can effectively deliver a decent product. If y'all would be interested, I could "leak" the blueprints on here. Just thought I would update on the situation as it stands. EDIT: It will be an Arrow styled coaster!
