That is true @BeastForever, but I always wonder why Cedar Fair has removed all of Carowinds water rides and not touched any of Kings Island’s. I only think Cedar Fair removes water rides when they want that land for future development, and I am not sure that Cedar Fair would have wanted to develop the land that KCKC occupied. If they did, I wish they would have sprung for something else besides Tomb Raider. I honestly cannot think of another park that has had so much wasted investment. Son of Beast and Tomb Raider: The Ride combined cost over 50 million not counting inflation, and I can only imagine what we could have today if that money was spent more wisely. I like what Cedar Fair is doing to the park by trying to build up Kings Island’s lineup. I think Paramount worked with the wrong companies.

Double post, but I think there is an app called Ride Forces which also has an app for smart watches. This allows you to track the g-forces and the speed of a ride with your phone or watch.

I like sitting on a middle seat closer to the front on Blue Racer. I do, however, have a friend who likes sitting in the very back of Red Racer, and he seems to enjoy it. I could not tolerate that! LOL!
-
I kind of feel that this coaster is going to be tied into Millennium Force’s theming in a way. I don’t know how exactly, but I feel like it might happen. This is just my opinion, so I could totally be wrong. Also. it is kind of interesting how teasers showed up at Kings Island on July 22nd, which is the same day that Millennium Force was announced.

Glad you are here! Welcome to KIC!
-
He probably just accidentally misplaced number 10 and number 2!
-
Lol! I I know the name, but I don’t want to type it out each time because it is way too long. I guess I need to work on my abbreviations.
-
Double post, but who cares. It would be cool if the park could build something like this with the rollercoaster part being inside the Tomb Raider building (there is already plumbing and electrical in there), and then have it come out of the side of building into a huge splashdown! It is a modern take on the old log flume, and it looks to be even more thrilling! I know it is an Intamin, but all jokes aside, one of these days, Cedar Fair will have to start working with them again.
-
Fastest log flume acceleration in the world!
-
Arrow built KKBC and RFYLCB. Or I guess Arrow Development did, which should be the same thing. Unfortunately they are out of business now with their assets being bought by S&S.
-
But the theming is so bad, it doesn’t count! LOL!
-
That would be the coolest log flume in the world!
-
We got Paramount to thank for KKBC being torn down. A beige box is not a worthy replacement in my opinion. I just don’t know if Cedar Fair will spend the thousand and thousands of dollars to have the Tomb Raider building torn down. I feel like they would rather put another ride in the building. Has anyone ever heard of indoor an log flume? LOL!
-
Good point @Maverick44! Cedar Fair works with them pretty often for new water slides, so I see that as a possibility!
-
It probably won’t beat Intimidator 305 in terms of intensity because that ride is so intense, the GP never ride it! LOL! It probably will match Fury 325 in terms of intensity, but we will have to wait and see if it can beat Fury 325 as an all around better giga.
-
This is true, but the main companies who make log flumes are Intamin and Mack. I could see us getting a Mack water ride though, maybe something like a Mack PowerSplash...
-
Blacking out is more extreme I think, but yeah, 100 signatures is not much. Luckily it is fake though...
-
If a man wants his Blitz, he should get his Blitz!
-
I guess there is! LOL!
-
I would love that too! That big ugly box in Rivertown blocks off great land for new flats and potentially a new log flume! I just don’t know if Cedar Fair will invest in another log flume/water ride after how the last one turned out...
-
Well not as bad as this one...
-
Intamin 301! The GP will have no idea what it means, so they will just think it is a cool sounding name. They can theme the ride by making it break down every 15 minutes.
-
I think towards the end of July, we will see the tenth poster with an announcement date and assuming that the reddit posters are wrong, I am thinking/hoping for an August 8th announcement date. That lines up well with the one week/9 day notices we have gotten in the past for these rollercoaster announcements, and it is a Thursday!
-
Cedar Fair working with Intamin again confirmed! They just bought new drive tires from them! That means we are getting an Intamin Blitz in 2023! LOL!
-
I know... that is why I am confused. We should sue Dorney Park for false marketing! LOL!
