Was that really necessary?

The American Dream...

Yeah, especially Michigan's Adventure. Their last 2 coasters were built in 99 and CF has owned the park since 01. It looks like there's room around the park and I'm guessing they own it... http://local.live.com/default.aspx?v=2&amp...9;s%20Adventure

Very nice. No Beast?

From a reliable source?

Moe must go. If you can't tell, in my picture I'm wearing my Elder Football 2004 Offense shirt.

I love looking at the ORPs of women on Firehawk because they all end up looking like "Cousin It" with the hair in their face.

O, because my brother takes photos for Elder High School Sports and family stuff and he has a pretty nice Canon Digital Rebel.

That could go pretty much any where since it is such a short ride. It wouldn't take nearly as much money as Firehawk (3340/704 = 4.744).

That should work According to South Park, if you hold in your farts you'll explode. But if you let them out too much it'll create massive pollution and global warming. We have to find a middle ground.

Really? What type of rumors have you heard?

What kind of camera do you have?

I didn't know we had a bunch of photographers on these forums.

My vote goes to Knott's Great America. They lost a major coaster with the first flying one in Stealth and haven't gotten anything since. In 2001 they got a wild mouse, 99 Taxi Jam (kiddie coaster), and 98 Invertigo (clone of Face/Off) so I feel they are really due for a good one. Their two major coasters are the B&M Vortex and Top Gun which aren't bad but for a park in San Jose and less than an hour from San Francisco you'd think that there'd be a lot of potential guests that CF could try to get a hold of. Knott's Berry Farm is in the same state but it's almost 6 hours away so I don't see that much worry about competition (since Knott's should be worrying about the park down the street, Disneyland). I have been to Great America when it still had Stealth but I can't really imagine going again for a full day since there doesn't seem that much to do. Any thoughts?

A lot of people on here talking about the next coaster at KI but, to me, it seems some have forgotten that CF owns other parks as well. The current number of coasters (according to www.rcdb.com which doesn't count Avatar) are listed next to the park names. As known, CP, KI, Valleyfair!, and Knott's Berry Farm all received coasters which were not at their park last year. Knowing this, which do you think will get the next coaster?

It looks like the train is transparent. That's crazy!

"It getting better all the time." -- The Beatles That is an amazing photo.

Unreal! I love the over exposed pictures especially when it deals with theme parks .

Great pictures, very clear. I love that FoF picture.

I have had the exact same experience. But as said it doesn't mean that FoF is KI's flagship roller coaster. The Beast has been and will always be (as long as it is still running) the coaster that KI is known for. However, FoF may have longer lines because of lower ride capacity and that FoF is in a building that is air conditioned and a prime spot for when people get hot in the summer. Also, The Beast is in the back of the park kind of by itself. The only other thing around it is TR:TR whereas FoF can be reached by people going to or from The Vortex, Spongbob, Racer, and other flats. One of the only reasons I even go into Rivertown is to ride The Beast.

I'm guessing your talking about "Pipeline Paradise." When I was there Friday June 1st the right side was open so I don't know what you're talking about. I did find this pretty sweet flow rider video on YouTube( ). And anyone who brings a board with them to KI needs a life...

You said what we were all thinking But the thing that makes me the maddest is the people who smoke in non-smoking sections. I usually try to cough rather loud as I cross them to see what they'll do. The only thing that's happened is a woman walking with a guy who was smoking turned around to look at me. I wanted her to say something so I could inform them of KI's policy and possibly get them kicked out if they wanted to argue with me. However nothing happened.

I am a very big fan of MrPKI's proposal of... http://img405.imageshack.us/img405/5295/ki...ideideasqi2.jpg esp. the Dive Coaster around the lake in Rivertown. It could dive right in front of the edge of the water or even dive right in the middle. And also make sure to remove as few trees as possible and keep it kinda hidden. That would be pretty awesome.

I was about to Photoshop a picture of what it would look like but I couldn't find a good shot of Kinzel.

How about KI gets a Wonderwheel but instead of the sun in the middle like at California Adventure they put Kinzel's face?
