Question: How late is Kings Island open on August 8th? Just curious.

I hope that is inaccurate and that Kings Island gets the rumored future B&M roller coaster such as the Floorless or Inverted.

That would be Awesome! Are you going? I don't know anybody that's going to this event.

Yeah I'm not sure why some on here are dissapointed in the possibility of this being an Invert? I mean yeah they're outdated, but they are still fun aren't they? I have a feeling this will be a great addition no matter what and you guys are all going to like this.

This has me excited a little. I remember how excited I was a year ago that SOB was going to be no more. I apologize to those of you that liked SOB, but that ride was painful! With that latest tweet, makes me think that 2014 announcement isn't too far away.

I know you guys want to see Flight Deck removed, but me and my family have a lot of memories on that ride. I know life is about change, but seeing Flight Deck/Top Gun removed would be tough to swallow.

August 10th. Here are the details. http://coasterbuzz.com/Content/BeastBuzz

Doesn't look like this forum changed too much. Great Job to the Administrators though for cleaning up this thread. Anybody here going to Beastbuzz? I plan to attend! Maybe will get an inside scoop of what's to come for 2014.

I have to disagree here. I think adding a B&M Invert or Floorless will bring people back to that area of the park. If I'm part of the general public, I will ride anything that is new even if it is a B&M Invert or Floorless roller coaster. Plus, Kings Island needs a good solid B&M roller coaster no matter what type of roller coaster they bring out. I still am in favor of a Floorless roller coaster.

Another way to tell is by the track. Some can tell what new coaster is which just by the track.

That looks photoshopped.

How do they strap you in for something like this?

Wait...Kentucky Kingdom is supposed to make an announcement this year also? I might have to head down there next year if this is a great ride.

I'm just getting anxious here and don't care how they ship track pieces. Even seeing supports would be Awesome right now.

Where did you find that promo link? I remember watching that when Millennium Force was announced and it gave me the chills of excitement! Since I rode it back in 2000, Millennium Force has been my #1 favorite roller coaster!

^ Just don't expect him or her to spill the beans about the project. Maybe though they can tell you about what type of layout they are going with.

Excellent decoding there Diamondbacker27! Now all we need is the announcement.

^ So Far Kings Island's single most expensive construction project was S.O.B which is now defunct. If this ride does become the single largest in History for the park, then this means they are totally redeeming themselves.

^ Secondson, did you see my response to you on the last page?

^ secondson, just wanted to comment on your thoughts here. - The red outlined area for the second image is the currently known construction area for KI Project 2014. As you can see, a B&M invert is very capable of taking up a lot of land. And don't forget....this is most likely a custom design, which means an invert could very well spread out to fill the red area in the second image, if not extend beyond it. ^ I like that Idea, and I hope they go this route. If they go further than that, they have the chance to make the world's longest Inverted or Floorless in the World.

Awesome news!

^ That looks like Son of Beast?

Now that Vortex has reached this milestone, please don't remove this legend.

Does anyone think that Cedar Point could be moving Mantis down 71 to Kings Island so they can add another B&M such as a Floorless?

Don't be shy buddy. I would love to see a Floorless come to Kings Island! That's what I'm rooting for! However, I wouldn't mind seeing an Invert either.
