Nice pics. Thanks. Even though some don't like SOB, you have to admit it is a beautiful structure.

^^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.

Who cares what Cedar Point Gets?

Actually, Cedar Point still has plenty of room. If you had an overhead view, you would see that. Someone once posted a link to something called terraserver and you could see a view from the air and there was lots of space. The latest rumor that I saw was for dueling flyers. I would love to see this happen.

Well, they did say that it was a what if scenario.

I say relocate Delirium on top of the Eiffel Tower!

Here's the latest from Screamscape. Apparently, Interactive Rides was not demanding more money and is still willing to build it for the original price. Link here...Turbulence

I would like to take a tour myself. Great find Klockster!

GL hasn't been Six Flags since the start of the 2004 season. They sold it at a loss. I doubt that money will be used for anything other than trying to get them out of the deep debt that they created. There would be no surplus funds.

I always thought it was funny when they were hiking to somewhere, someone would inevitably ask, " Is it much furhter now Papa Smurf". At first, he would answer, "Not much longer now, my little smurfs". And, then when they had asked too many times he would reply, "yes, it is much further". Funny stuff.

I like Millennium Force better. I see Dragster as more of a thrill ride. Don't get me wrong, I love Dragster as there is nothing like that anywhere.

I say bring back the smurfs! My fav was jokey because even though every smurf knew his packages would explode, he managed to get them to open them every time.

I think that it would be a cool idea to put something up there like what is on the stratosphere. I imagine that it would scare the hell out of me.

" There going to turn it into THE PARKING LOT!!! This one of a kind ride will deliver various speeds of excitement and Thrills!!!! It cost 8 dallors though! " Freakin' hilarious!

Although this is a cool thing for them to do, I can think of a million other things to do besides look at a bunch of dirt.

"I always said PKI was better than PKD but CP is just a thrill seeker place and not a family place. " Have you ever been to Cedar Point? There is plenty to do for the younger crowd. There are two junior coasters, plenty of flat rides, shows, and Soak City for the kids to enjoy. Granted, it's not as nice as PKI's, but there is a lot of stuff for the kiddies to do.

This sounds like their answer to the Spider-Man ride at USFL.

Don't use the word change, Scooby. People on this board have a hard time dealing with that concept *cough**scooters**cough*.

Those would be two excellent spots for new rides.

From what I have read, PCW's attendance did not really jump up 30%. Apparently, some of the attendance figures were reported incorrectly, hence huge jump in attendance.

Actually, I don't think PCW's jump in attendance was truly that high. I have read elsewhere that figures from some of the parks were reported incorrectly in 2003 which affected the attendance figures for 2004, hence the huge jump. On a side note, I'd like to know where all this shade supposedly is at PKI. It must be anywhere but ride queues cause there's none there except Delirium.

Yeah, I said may become. I still don't believe that they did it to keep someone else from buying it. That may have been one very small part of buying it, but the big picture is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

Klockster, no one is going to buy a park to keep someone else from obtaining it. They are in the biz to make money, not enemies. They bought it becuase they see the potential it has and obtained it for a really reasonable price. GL may become the park that CF attempts to compete with PKI for families.

I would be happy with any aerial shots of PKI in the offseason. I am grateful that you are willing to do this and post them here at PKICentral.
