  1. Im thinking the lighting package isn't going to be any more than what Gatekeeper has running on its trains,
  2. nice timing with the train running threw the course on Banshee.
  3. It is true the fact that there will be a trim brake on Banshee, typical B&M fashion i don't think they will build a coaster without one.
  4. more than likely we will end up with something like Canada's wonderlands guardian, put in that shiny metal box
  5. parts of The Racer needs retracking, its almost like strapping a jack hammer to your back and sitting on concrete at some points. Repainting the ride will be a bit more expensive because your painting 2 coasters and all of the support structures. The fact that its paint is probably its original coating is now showing its age the new coat of paint will last you another 35+ years.. Flight deck didnt even last a decade and is getting a new coat of paint.
  6. X base doesn't need much TLC, just some restrooms if anything gets TLC next year it should be the Adventure Express and retracking and repainting The Racers.
  7. I would love to see a decent flat ride put inside of the old crypt building, but i think flying eagles would be my first choice for a flat ride to add next season.
  8. It has already been decided, 2019 Intamin giga coaster where the rest of Son of Beast was, it will even utilize a refurbished SOB station. <a href="http://s362.photobucket.com/user/x241/media/2019ki.png.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://i362.photobucket.com/albums/oo63/x241/2019ki.png" border="0" alt=" photo 2019ki.png"/></a> Tr0y, wishfully thinking
  9. It could be this new food stand with chicken that they will be offering this coming season.
  10. I like the charcoal color they used for the supports, gives it a rustic look like its been there for years, and no one has been back there to ride it, plus once you get that bright orange track under it it will really look dark.
  11. They took my advice! Now all they need to do is take my advice on building an intamin giga..
  12. It would be awesome if Kings Island had a Bat cam, its kinda pointless to have Banshee cam one facing were it is.
  13. FoF doesn't need a change in theming, it could definitely use some TLC tho.
  14. No bins for Banshee? come on man!
  15. not really a flyer fan, given the fact that they are uncomfortable, but at least with vekoma I'm on my back for the chain hill lift, its not as uncomfortable then. unless the sun is in your eyes.
  16. I dont pay much attention to the asphalt at ki, its been around the park as long as i could remember to the point where in some sections of the park has kinda grown on me.
  17. Trabant is being removed!? That ride is a classic! Every time i ride it gives me memories of the sandlot movie
  18. What utter rubbish. On the other hand, how were Volcano: The Blast Coaster's trains configured year 1? What happened to Maverick right before opening? No rubbish there... what about them, its expected with intamin, no fun if it is to be expected.
  19. B&M problem solving = apply the trims. Wether that be too fast, too fun, ejector airtime, or a ride photo camera up ahead, i wouldn't count it out for a problem like this, just make sure when your feet hit the ground on at the bottom of that hill your running at full speed to counteract the trim affect.
  20. And y'all thought b&m was perfect?, This design flaw is going to cost us a trim brake addition...
  21. I don't its necessary for Kings Island to get a dark ride like the guardian its practically boo blasters except played on a big tv screen, i would love the idea of Kings Island getting another indoor coaster or dark flat ride other than what the guardian is.. The coaster would have to be small, something along of the lines of ricochet at kings dominion.
  22. Banshee track progress has been at a standstill for the past week, delayed probably for thanksgiving. The Bat is starting to show its orange at the beginning of the lift hill, its faint if you look at the webcam..
  23. i would feel very uncomfortable in those seats, forceful turns and bicycle seats, no thank you... I think the bats current trains are fine. The only thing i would like to see make a return is The Bat-like themed trains.
