Received my renewed / upgraded Coaster Crew membership in the mail yesterday! Looks like I'll be registering and signing up for CoasterStock at some point today! This should be a GREAT event !

^ What about a big hornet?...... TheBEASTunchained.......Just buzzing with excitement....

Crews are out working on something to do with the final brake run this morning. (Live Still-Image captured from the Carowinds Fury 325 cam) March 28th is just buzzing around the corner folks...... ....As is Fury 325 testing.....

And so it shall....... The world's tallest roller coaster, coming to Orlando's Skyplex in 2017, will be manufactured by the one and only, INTAMIN. Just announced today, the world's tallest drop ride, SkyFall, at a height of 450 feet, will be located on the inside of the tower and face the outside toward SkyScraper, this ride will also be manufactured by INTAMIN. Also, as a side note, apparently S&S has NO involvement what-so-ever with this project, for those of you worried about a painful ride experience..... All of this and more can be found Here

Nice to see that the new interactive maps are getting some attention! Digital Signage Today : New interactive map aims to make Kings Island visits more fun .....O' Suhr

Construction crews are moving at a very fast pace on the new front entrance area!

^ I haven't heard anything about a media day event yet, and I also haven't heard whether it will be one that coaster enthusiast clubs are invited to..... I'm guessing an announcement about that sort of thing will be made toward the end of this month.

The park may have "classic woodies covered" but we still lack a GCI type wooden roller coaster. I'm not complaining though, I do LOVE all 3 of the woodies at Kings Island, I just wish we had a nice GCI at the park to REALLY draw me. Six Flags St. Louis has a PERFECT example of a quality and diverse wooden coaster lineup, as I've stated on this site before. The Boss. Screamin' Eagle. And last but of course not least..... American Thunder. THAT'S a diverse wooden roller coaster lineup.

I don't think The Racer is going anywhere. Period.

As mentioned above by silver2005, the station for Fury 325 and the new front entrance to Carowinds are definitely really coming along nicely! Looks like work on the queue is coming along at a fast rate as well. Actually there are currently some men out working on the queue as this post is being typed! Check out that progress on the new bridge sitting over the Fury 325 underground dive! This front entrance area of the park is really starting to shape up!

I've decided to wait until I receive my renewed CoasterCrew membership I.D later this week to buy my CoasterStock tickets.

The new 2015 map of Alabama's Splash Adventure has now been posted on the park's website, Here.

Wow. Just took a look at the number of followers that @KentuckyKingdom has on Twitter..... What an incredible amount of Hart being shown..... 2,263 followers....??..... Something's just not right. .......And due to that, Hart's probably due to Chang things up a little bit......Oh Wait?.... As said by other members of this site, in this very thread, visit Kentucky Kingdom this season. Time is of the essence.

Kings Island on Facebook : "The construction of Woodstock Gliders, a classic flying scooters ride from Larson International, is underway in Planet Snoopy.
