TheCrypt

I believe it was so the lift could stand out against the skyline/midway and to have the rest of the ride blend in with the surrounding trees.

There was nothing to speculate. Don already replied here: http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php?/topic/28592-work-near-adventure-express/page-2#entry570871

I think it'd be cool to see somewhere around the ride. It'd give the ride a darker connotation, which could be helpful if the rumored Fear Zone is to come to fruition.

Lightning Run is also new to everyone. Banshee had everyone's attention when it was announced. Crypt, back to lurking.

IIRC The Bat was used outside during Haunt pre-Crypt era.

Never.

Out of every minute detail of the coaster, you choose to get miffed over the floor?Come on.

Right. But you posted videos comparing 2007 to 2009. If you notice, the ride cycle is the same in 2009 as it is now. Unless you can find another video showing the ride in 2011 or beyond, I stand by my belief that the ride cycle has not changed since at least 2009.

You can still access the full version on KI's website from iPhones. Simply click the top right tab saying "full site."

Sorry, but Zoom Flume is an awful name. I'm not calling it that.

My favorite is Snowy River Rampage because of how long it is as well as the numerous "rapids" that bump the raft along the way.

Firehawk's loop for sure.

Where's your proof?

Probably not. Knott's just received numerous high quality updates this season so next season will most likely be a year for general park improvements. The other parks mentioned seldom get much on a year to year basis. I do believe Michigan's Adventure is getting a set of Flying Scooters, however.

I believe Robbie (CoastersRZ) confirmed the space under the station would be a gift shop. He works for the firm that designed the station, so I would consider him to be a reliable source.

You can't pick and choose who the rules apply to. Whether you're 10 seconds late to class or 30 seconds, you're still late.

It was never shortened. It's always been that short.

That's odd. Why would Cedar Point store their Halloween decorations so far away?

If I think something's dark, I first think of it as a horror movie title. Stinger just sounds like Pixar's newest film.

It wouldn't be your first time riding it opening night if you've already ridden it during opening day.

What's the point?Speculation of re-theming AZ into something dark...Stinger doesn't have a "dark" connotation to it. I don't see a reason to change the name when Invertigo can already sound dark.

What's the point?

Likely during the day, but not when it first opens.

I guess I'm the minority, but I think Amusement Dark is an awful name. If they're going to change Action Zone to something else, they can no doubt do better.

There's no issue. There's a guide rail underneath the cars to keep them from swinging while in the station, on the lift, and on the brake run.
