absolutely amazing!!! Thank you!! ) You just made my week LOL

Maybe the money they make off of the Fast Lane can be used to upgrade to digital networked signboards. Now for my suggestion; I would love to be able to add my KI/CF Platinum Pass to my KI mobile app to be scanned as I enter the gates or use it to get discounts at discount locations. Kind of like the Key Ring app does, you take a picture/scan your pass/reward card and then assign/title it. Then when you go to that retail location you pull up that card bar-code on your smart phone to be scanned. Less I can carry in the park the better especially with thrill rides. Here is a link to the website that may explain it better. Key Ring that same process could be added to a company mobile app to give it that wow factor. I use this app all the time and love that I no longer need to carry those cards in my wallet. Also a video of it for a quick explained demo. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/7lapDedJQdo" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Now if you can do that I would use the KI app on every trip to the park. This would be cool to add the pass to scan or have a nexus near field communications and just wave your phone to get in, or to pay.

Ride Warrior!!!!! And think of the backed up lines at the gate due to the extra time to search those shopping carts...this is not one of Ryan's better ideas. BavarianBeatle, the pic is a stereotype usually assumed by those consumed by greed of money. Homeless people do not look like this. They are not in the position they are in because of alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, or mental problems. IN FACT they are homeless because they simply have no money! I've seen lots of hot looking females in their early twenties holding cardboard signs saying they are living in their car. FACE IT, if you had a million dollars to pay for a home in full, up front and in cash, it would still eventually be taken from you because the cities in which we live claim all property on which all homes are built actually belong to the cities and since all homes have pipes for water, sewage, and electrical lines, phone lines, and even sidewalks, and trash collectors......... the city will always own your home (even if you bought it and have it paid off), and the city will insist you pay property tax on it twice every year till you can no long keep paying them at which time your ass will be out on the street! standbyme, that was a terrible joke... I suggest everyone learn about money and how it really works before they make it the center of their world. Also, eating is an option! People DON'T HAVE TO EAT while at the park! Not in a 12 hour time frame! They can eat before and after at much cheaper places! Nope! That my good sir is a crack head!!! LMFAO not a stereotype just the facts.

And I thought this horse had been sent to the glue factory long ago. Some of us didn't even know this was a horse. With the name Son Of BEAST one would assume that it is some type of large beast of a creature not a horse beat a dead horse Definition: To overuse or overdo something.

Interesting-when were these taken? Even if they were taken yesterday, what does it prove? The cross ties in that section have always looked like that. As for the reader asking about the red beams, those are steel. That's what the extra bracing added after the 06 incident looks like. There's photos of it in the state report which can be found online. Posted 21 August 2011 - 04:46 PM ^ His post was in August so I 'm to assume that it was around this date.

Sorry!! face palm!! Did not mean to get any thing started. I have been waiting (just like many of you) for any new information, All most every day I check around for any thing new. I just came across those photos and they made me re-think about the structure. Looking at examples below, Why are the cross members not flush with the track? To me it looks like the building crew half as*** this!! Can some one agree with this, or am i totally wrong? http://www.barge2rail.com/img/Untitled.jpg I see why they below cross members are the way that they are due to the bend. This photos looks normal. http://www.barge2rail.com/img/1.jpg ^ This is how I think all of the track should look like. Except for the high speed bends. http://www.barge2rail.com/img/2.jpg I guess what I'm try to get at is that there must be something bigger that we all over look that is keeping the park and or Cedar Fair from rehabbing or re-tracking this ride. Other than money!

http://coaster-net.com/forums/index.php?/topic/11358-the-son-of-beast-thread/page__view__findpost__p__244918 not to beat a dead horse, but these photos make me re-think wanting to ride this again!!!!

Park News - (10/10/11) Just in case anyone was wondering, it was confirmed that Mean Streak is closed for the rest of the season, as previously rumored. Can any one confirm this?? And if so WHY!!!

^ Agreed

Most likely middle management! And they know what will get us fan-boys posting, but they do not know what the ultimate decision is. I think that the are just messing with us, and its working.

We are all over thinking this!! The people who set up the displays know no more that we do!!!!!!!!!

$$$ extra money $$$ I see all ready

I got my hopes up last time they had a major announcement So I'm this time!!! I don't see them announcing that the are going to fix it. Just does not make any marking sense!!

I live in mason and Cedar Point is more like 4 hours away! LOL Would love to make in two hours

Haunt information will be available around Labor Day From KI Facebook page!

I'd say around 8500-9500 lbs, some suv's weigh in @ 3000lbs

True pine is sometimes very weak, depending on the grade. My company uses a high grade of pine inside of barges to hold up 6500-8500 lbs steel coils, this works very well its cheap yet strong to do the job.

I bought a coffee mug with the SOB on it this year. I know it had to of been from 2009.

I understand! but it's the small details that make a big difference.

It's good to see that the CF has put some care into the ride this year! Now only if they could paint the hand rails ( they look rusty)

I always have a problem on Drop Tower, I had to be pushed in on the front seat of The Vortex last year, But have no issues this year. I lost 30 LBS. But just to help you can move the seat belt on the pull down bar to fit.

Your point? It's probably just an older video, like, two years old.....D: It may be a old video, but It was not on the website this off season. This web site is made by cf they know the status of the ride! Why would they post any information on it?

http://www.ridewarriornation.com/ Watch the video They show sob and put its name on the video

i thought the park was closed on Sunday??
