But as my opinion went, TR was on a different level than Express and FOF I expect Mystic to be on par with Banshee at the least, and FOF/ Express at best

I have a strong feeling rap is on its way back to ki in some capacity.. probably not that particular one
-
I volunteer as tribute!

I would guess not quite as crazy considering a number of people will be holding easter with the families, and work will have to continue the next day.. that is unless Kings Island has some deals for Easter Sunday.
-
What makes you say the shed is complete?
-
I'm not certain if Kings Island Drive is complete.. I think it was complete last time I drove through.. minus the landscaping.. But you still got quite a lot of work left to do if you come from the south towards Kings Island. That exit ramp situation has not yet been fixed, still very condensed.

Kiddie coaster!

It'd have to be pretty special or a diverse collection of things to attract people over there that aren't necessarily riding The Bat.

It's not the walk. Its the distance you must go with only one destination. A sentiment Thunderbird doesnt fully fit into with the food, drinks, restrooms, and one flat back there with it. Im used to the walk to The Bat but I do understand why some think the walk back isnt preferable. Thunderbird's walk is also really weird despite having other things and makes me hope they relocate hyena falls, utilize the old pilgrims plunge, and one day add more flats along that path

If Cedar Fair got another park

Its all relative lol I've heard some east coasters that consider Cincinnati to be the west... Uhhhh -
We havent seen a lead car photo yet. We can't make such a conclusion. We've seen only the cars that people sit in. There will be a lead car of some sort.. it likely will resemble the rendering. It really shouldnt be that hard to get the trains in the shed. They wouldnt build something that made it too difficult. A wall could double as a door. They could place the trains on while the trackless rollers are in front of the shed opening, as someone else said we could have the trains fairly easily disassembled before theu can be pulled off. I think my second guess might be the hardest they'd make it for themselves

Im guessing it wont change much. GCIs are smooth but that doesnt mean they won't wear you out similar to how Beast will in terms of laterals.. I personally think Beast is as smooth as a standard GCI nowadays, and Racer isnt nearly as rough as it used to be.. I think the comparison will more be about whats more fun our intense. I think people will be split 1/3 liking MT better.. 2/3 still preferring Beast.. heck maybe even 4/5 for Beast.. since a lot of people rank it better than Voyage or El Toro lol Side note. I think it's funny how much a tease KI is with the trains lol. People kept asking for train pictures... and the one we get is all the cars still heavily wrapped, not even of the leas car (the one that will actually look different from your typical GCI lol

"Dude, in the shed when (blah blah blah blah blah) happened! MAn that was cool!" *Person in line hears minutes away from riding, having the secret spoiled.*

The tunnel on the ride? Because tunnels are awesome! [emoji14]
-
The building connected to the station is the shed, and the photo booth (as in where you can purchase a photo) is guestimated to be that soon to be built building featured in the picture showcasing the turn out of the station. We've seen some blueprints that place a building there on the exit path of MT and the train's south exit. Maybe the ride will have photos taken IN the shed now that I think of it..

Yeah I see the same as the screenshot. #2 is a broken link box But more specifically I see nothing whatsoever if someone or I try to post a link to a tweet (which becomes an embeded clicky photo on PC)
-
Source? That's very exciting news. If we have real vines that are growing during the show then I'm going to love it. No one needs more screens, Universal and triotech are doing too much of that

What are Kings Islands Plans after Mystic Timbers?
calakapepe replied to louisvillecards1's topic in Coming Attractions
I specifically didnt include them because their wooden track isnt completely wooden -
What are Kings Islands Plans after Mystic Timbers?
calakapepe replied to louisvillecards1's topic in Coming Attractions
I am glad to have had the opportunity to experience a coaster that likely wont exist again for another 10 years (200ft real woodie) with a vertical loop of actual wooden track. Intamin is the only current probable candidate for creating a reliably smooth, though unreliably operating ride. If SOB had gone to CP I wouldnt have had the chance to ride it as it was originally intended -
I still haven't figured out how to click back to the homepage after youve opened the forums in computer lol

Correlation doesnt always equal causation -
Anyone else having issues where links (that are displayed as clicky photos) dont show up at all on Tapatalk? Be nice if at least the text would show if the image embeding couldnt work
-
I thought the tunnel would start a little earlier in the turn. This ride looks awesome

Will the peanuts gang be eating panda express with the kiddies?
-
I have a suspicion that they've arrived secretly.. maybe we won't be shown until the ride is testing.. anyone remember when we saw Banshee's first train? Idr seeing a train till video of the ride testing started
