  1. There is also alot of ash trees that are dead that would need to be removed if their close to any rides walkways or buildings.
  2. So basically a short, small, slow wooden coaster.......bummer.
  3. I'm so lost. Why are we now ruling out RMC?
  4. I keep forgetting about Invertigo...I'm not considering the cost to keep Vortex running as very high, just the cost vs value it adds may be leaning against keeping it vs adding something with more appeal/draw. I forgot about Invertigo as well. I rather see Invertigo leave than Back Lot. Of coarse I don't want any coaster to go but that's by far my least favorite.
  5. I thought someone said there were blue prints for the footers and the steel ties proved it was an RMC. Not exactly sure how or if that's true but I think it was a few pages back.
  6. I think Vortex is probably the most likely in the next 10 years but if I had to choose one to go it would be Back Lot Stunt Coaster. The only part about that ride I enjoy at all is the 5 second tunnel at the end.
  7. I didn't realize that 2999ft or less qualified as a kids coaster. Good to know. I always thought rides like Invertigo Top Thrill Dragster were adult rides. Thanks for the education. Also there are what, less than 100-150 coasters world wide over your 3500-4000 mark? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk All I'm saying is less than 3000ft seems too short for a wooden coaster that's being hyped this much in a park the size of KI that's not directed specifically at children. This is just my opinion. I guess my opinion offended you in some way. So for that I apologize I thought that's what this forum was for discussing thoughts and opinions to try and figure this out.Nope not offended just pointing out the flaw in your opinion. You are allowed one just like others are allowed to point out when an opinion has flaws. Plus saying a ride may be too short for the hype versus saying 3000 is a kids ride is two completely different things. Have a great one Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Well in my "opinion" 3000ft wooden coaster at KI is too short. And in no way did I say all coasters less than 3000ft are kids coasters. Don't just assume and then get smart about it. Carry on

  9. There is no way this is less than 3000ft of track. If so unless it's i kid coaster, which I doubt, I don't think it would be worth KIs investment. At least 3500 to 4000 ft and I still think that's kinda short.
  10. I'm kind of surprised we still have yet to see any footers at all. Ok maybe I'm wrong here but wouldn't a wood coaster take longer to build than a steel coaster of similar size? The longer they take to actually start building the more I'm starting to believe this is going to be a pretty small and short coaster.
  11. Blueprints were leaked to YouTube. The plans showed a top down view, with what appeared to be RMC footers, as well as steel ties were indicated. Where can I find this video or has it been completely removed already?
  12. Still kinda lost here. I missed the video leak but how do we know it's RMC now?
  13. Why is one section highlighted that says area of work.?
  14. I don't see why fixing the breaks would cause it to start stacking. One in station one on first lift one on second lift.
  15. Sounds like something they could update or fix right there
  16. Or a first of their kind in the chain..whoops said too much.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk RMC you say?
  17. Ok so why can't they speed up the second one which in turn should enable them to speed up the first one.
  18. That's what I mean. The print makes it look to small for the amount of hype they have done for this ride.
  19. The only think about The Beast i don't get is why both chain lifts go up about 1 or 2mph. Seems like they could make it go up faster.
  20. This actually seems very accurate to the print. I would be happy with something like this but I still think the print looks like a pretty short coaster.
  21. It is possible for RMC to work on more than one project at a time. I would think if Meanstreak was to get an RMC makeover it would make KIs coaster more likely to be an RMC since that would mean they are working together now. I still believe this is a GCI though
  22. Arrows don't have a service life. Besides its the best coaster in the park. At some point Vortex will become more expensive to keep repairing than the park is willing to pay. I could see this happening in the next 10 years. I think that's where our blitz coaster will go after we get our giga in 2022.
  23. Never been on an RMC but they don't seem like their any shorter than most GCIs.
  24. The GCIs do seem to be shorter smaller coasters. It would make sense to have them at all the smaller parks in the chain. But if this layout is correct it does look like it would be a shorter smaller coaster.
  25. At this point all I believe is that were getting a rollercoaster. If the plans are fake, which I doubt, releasing fake coaster blue prints and ending up not building a coaster at all would be a huge mistake in my opinion. I'm pretty sure the plans are real but I don't think this is necessarily the final layout.
