If you are in line for Orion or Beast before 10pm, yes you will still ride after the all clear. On a busy Saturday, that may be after midnight if you got in line just before the line closed.
-
No they do not. Beast and Orion will start up after given the all clear. Blue Racer remains closed. And this year because of the drones, WindSeeker and Shake, Rattle, Roll shut down as well before 10pm.

What about an AMC Pacer

I am sure someone has seen it

I have counted as few as 9 and as many as 15 stops coming into the station. The most jerky part of the whole ride lol.

VIP Firework viewing (not the VIP tours, that’s different)
disco2000 replied to BoddaH1994's topic in Kings Island
I agree with you, but once you slap VIP or exclusive or limited to something, people go crazy over it LOL. People are fascinated with that location and are willing to pay to be there. Look at the success of the WF buffet in that location that many meal plan holders jumped all over, as well as the dining cards purchased during limited run events by so many people with meal plans. Personally I am shocked so many with meal plans would pay to eat at the buffet or buy the Carnivale or Tricks/Treats dining cards, yet they were bought in quantity by said guests and upping the per cap spending by a lot. While some here say no way at the price, there will be many that are ok with it and do it and I would be shocked if it isn't a winner for KI. People here thought paint chips of Eiffel Tower was too expensive and it sold well, as does just about everything they put a price to. People are willing to spend for memories and experiences. -

^We all said that when FL was being tested here that nobody would pay $50 for that for one day....it sold out....now price can be double or more and people can purchase all season and FL sells out more days than not... I am sure the VIP fireworks will be no different and it will do well. I suspect the majority will be the adult groups that come here for one day and splurge on FL+, daily meal plan, etc. -
A launched screamin swing LOL. I mean he did use the word launch in his original post

Is that a hint for a new sports themed attraction going in The Vortex spot

Discussing Land and Space in and around Vortex
disco2000 replied to Klabergian Empire's topic in Kings Island
I stand by my post LOL. From where he said to observe, this spot is to the right of the Eiffel Tower. Do you think he meant literally launched from the right of Eiffel Tower - like maybe from where Chick-Fil-a is LOL He also said the fireworks are from the left of the Tower - so are the moving the current spot and launching it from the Merry-go-round LOL? No, because standing in front of the fountains, the fireworks are to the left of the tower, but also back a couple thousand feet, just like the drones will be launched a couple thousand feet away from the Tower and will be to the right based on the location perspective he referenced. You took his comment too literally. Not too many places they can launch from.... -

Is WindSeeker not a Tower? Plus depending on perspective, that location could be to the right of all 3 towers in the park (not including cell towers). -

They slowed it down at the MCBR since the water is not there to participate in the braking system. My four rides today had a little different experience as it hit the MCBR: Complete stop on the MCBR for a brief moment. A crawl thru the MCBR. A crawl thru the MCBR and then held it momentarily with only the back car on the brake system. Fairly normal speed at the end of the night on a train not full. -

What better way than to gain a few followers than a shameless plug LOL "Hey here is a pic I just took at Coasterstock. Follow me at ZZZZZZZ for more updates"

Given what happened at a similar ride at Carowinds, I am shocked they would start the ride - or did they not start it with that there?
