I definitely want to go to Beastbuzz. I guess I'll have to get a paying membership to Coasterbuzz so I get the special rate or whatever.
-
Personally, I like the Mantis at Cedar Point. Much better than King Kobra. I would like to see a B&M stand-up and all, but there's nothing new you can really do with them. And, from what I understand, you can't go any taller with them either. Not sure which is the tallest.
-
I like the name Timber Tantrum!
-
Actually, it was removed because of the high maintenance costs. So, yes, it could be re-installed, but no, it won't be for the obvious reason.
-
Sorry, but FOF is nothing like Dragster. And don't say because they are launched, that makes them real similar. That's like saying Wicked Twister is like Dragster. Being launched at 60mph vs. 120 mph can't compare. Two totally different experiences. "So the only Intamin not like something we already have is the giga coaster." Don't leave out the possibility of a hyper coaster from Intamin or B&M.

I thought that maybe Roller Coaster Database might contain costs of building, but they do not. Still looking for a site that does.

I still don't see an announcement coming. And, no, they are not really different when you look at it this way. You would think CP would want to announce a difference in the seats since so many were turned away last year, but it won't happen. Just like if there's a program change, you wouldn't announce that either. Both are improvements of the ride. All I am saying is don't expect an announcement. They may want their guests to be pleasantly surprised.
-
I think it has been said that it will open in May and not April. Or, it could be speculation.
-
Actually, I don't believe that they would make an announcement about a ride program change. Just like if Cedar Point decides to change the seats on Millennium Force, there will be no announcement. You'll just notice the change once you're there.

2006 is going to be the year of the tallest, fastest, and only looping log flume. But, what I really want is a B&M hypercoaster.
-
"your probably right they probably signed a contract to have 2 or 3 rides built by them. I think that they were suppose to get 1 more huss ride but didnt bc of Deliriums floor or somethin." This is a common misconception. Normally, parks do not contract for x number of rides. Everyone thinks this about Intamin and Cedar Point since Intamin installed their last three. I don't think they got much of a break for buying three if at all.

I like Alien Seed's names. How about SOB to woodenrollercoaster#1. (for all you rct fans)

AZ_Kinda Guy said, "I bet it works though!" LMFAO!

I'm going straight for IJ:ST. Then, who knows after that.

A look at the Flying Eagles New Home
KIBeast replied to Vortex's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
Not according to some. Flying Eagles was not a unique ride either. You can find them still. -
Yeah, I know that won't be happening. I just thought it was funny. I'm not sure I would ride a 500ft. evevator drop. I hate elevators, much like I hate skyline type rides. It's funny. I don't mind a 300 or 400 foot coaster, but can't stand to ride Drop Zone or Power Tower or sky rides. I like a little air time, but not that much. With the skyline type of rides, I can't stand that hanging feeling. The old Zodiac ride used to scare the crap out ot me.

I forgot to add that the suregeon only removed three of my wisdom teeth. He said that one of them was close to a nerve and would be risking nerve damage and since it wasn't bothering me anyway, he would just leave it alone. Meaning that some day I might have to have that one removed.

Get him a tissue! -
Well, I had an abcess tooth once. So, the suregeon decided he should go ahead and pull my wisdom teeth too since they were impacted (facing sideways). Anyway, I got the shot and the gas too. I woke up and had to sit in the chair for a little while. I must have been dreaming and it seemed very real because I was dreaming I was at work and was typing on my keyboard. Found out later that my mom said that I was holding my hands in the air as if I was typing something. Funny Stuff! I couldn't eat right for about six weeks as my jaw would only open so far. Lots of soup and sandwhiches smashed down to an edible size.

Reason #5 - We're getting coasters every year until the end of the decade! It's about time!

"I'm not trying to argue. I'm just not seeing the big deal with the whole, "O my God! Life is over!," thing with Scooters. And don't argue with me about that because I thought first aid had to be called because of grown men crying thier hearts out, and taking leaves from the ride area and putting them in thier pockets." "Life goes on, get over it for real. I loved the ride. It was one of my kid’s favorite. But seriously just let it go." My two favorite posts of the day! I've been saying the same thing for a month now. -
I like SOB Klockster, but I have to disagree with some of what you said. I think SOB proved that taller and faster does not always equal better. Besides, from what I have heard, SOB is the tallest that you can go with a wooden structure. Not positive about that one though. And, The Crew, do you have any idea how expensive a four minute dueling flying coasters would cost? It would be astronomical. I wouldn't mind seeing dueling flyers, but the best you could hope for would be a two minute ride.
-
Nice pics. Thanks. Even though some don't like SOB, you have to admit it is a beautiful structure.

What will Ceder Point get in 06'?
KIBeast replied to The-Snapper's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
^^Yeah, I hit the back button instead of edit. Still haven't figured out how to quote properly yet. No, CP is not going to remove Dragster for a larger one. I'm quite sure the next coaster will be completely different. -

"Who cares what Cedar Point Gets?" I do. And I imagine a lot of other people do as well. Sorry, but Cedar Point is still my fav, but PKI is gaining quickly.
