It is very possible that they would do something like that again or they may not. May not be soon but you never know. It possibly may have been a Paramount thing, like you said.

I can't wait until they begin to set it up so I can watch on the webcams.

To go with this I found this post on this very own sight about it being tested in Japan. http://www.KICentral.com/forums/index.php/topic/9364-king-cobra/

Wow. Amazing video I watched it two times in a row. I do not know the guy's name though.

Lets hope with park permission.

I think it is King Cobra now because if you look at the last picture posted by McSalsa it shows the curved track at the end. If you look back you can see where it is on the map. Not 100% but it seems to be a very good possibility.

-- All images in this post is from Google Earth ( https://www.google.com/earth/ ) -- Some of you may have seen this post coming because you were reading the random discussion thread. When I was just recently looking through Google Earth I was looking at Kings Island. I saw something while I saw something in a boneyard right behind The Racer and other warehouses...... I saw what seems to me to be track or support beams. (Image below is from 2004) They kind of have the shape of track or something along that nature. The next two following images are from 2005 (first one) and 2006 (second one). In the second one they seem to look like bushes but that just may be the quality of the image or it actually may be. Below is where is located. -- All images in this post is from Google Earth ( https://www.google.com/earth/ ) -- Those mysterious shapes disappeared somewhere between 2006 and 2009. I'm just curious if you guys could help me figure out what this mysterious object is. I may be totally wrong (probably will be).

^Forgot about that. A ride like Ricochet would be a nice addition in OktoberFest.

But Backlot Stunt Coaster is there already, and it's fantastic. Yeah. I see why you would say this. It is fantastic.

^ Yes it was. it was right around the area the festhaus is currently.

Very good price! Well for an amusement park like Kings Island.

I honestly think they should put a ride like this in the following years before the next BIG coaster. Like Ricochet at Carowinds.

Cool article. via The State http://www.thestate.com/2014/12/04/3852602/carowinds-tops-off-new-fury-325.html?sp=/99/205/&ihp=1

I found this video on youtube and I thought it was a cool interview. It is short but it has Mike Fehnel from Carowinds kind of explain the difference of the two rides and other things. Some of you may have seen it or may have already known the difference but I just wanted to share. (Video made by Brian Mitchell . I inculuded his channel link which you can access by clicking his name.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrXDDAytA04 Also it seem that there wasn't a lot of work done today on fury 325. I think those workers deserved a day off (But it did look like they started to prepare for finishing off the lift hill. (Image from Carowinds' Webcams)

Meanwhile at the (going to be) front entrance....

Return of the Phantom.....

^^ Thats what makes The Beast so great.

Im a fan of wooden coasters. In the a couple of years (maybe sooner)when we are due for another coaster I would love to see kind of what NoChickens said.... a wooden coaster. Just make sure it is something that differs from The Racer and The Beast.

That still isn't the last support beam for the lift hill/drop. (photo from https://www.carowinds.com/online-fun/webcams )
