beastrider97 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 http://www.cagreatamerica.com/goldstriker Sorry if there is already a thread, I couldn't find it. Seems like another GCI loaded with pops of airtime! Seems to be similar to Thunderhead, and I will love if it if just as intense. 2 Quote
jdawg1998 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Northern California's tallest and fastest wooden roller coaster. Wow, amazing record broken right there. 7 Quote
flightoffear1996 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 I really like it for that park! The low capacity though would make it bad for Kings Island. RIde looks fun though. Quote
BB1 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 Well, at least its not a "Great addition for 2013" speil of a renovation! I think this is a great idea for CGA, a new and large woodie, which personally I believe CGA was needing. Quote
CoasterGeek101 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 OMG!!! OMG!!! THE TALLEST and FASTEST roller coaster in NORTHERN CALIFORNIA! HOLY CRAP!!! This is a historic announcement! Looks good to me. 1 Quote
HWBeast1039 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 The animation makes it look like it goes 90mph . A great coaster nonetheless! Quote
coasterfanatic83 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 First impression: The Legend at Holiday World. That being said, I like the addition and location in that park. Solid addition Quote
thekidd33 Posted August 29, 2012 Posted August 29, 2012 It does look like it could be a little Legend-y, which wouldn't be a bad thing at all. Quote
The Interpreter Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 Harumph. One of the best wooden coasters I have ever ridden is in Northern California. Bigger is not always better. This may very well be a splendid ride, and probably will be. It's a lead pipe cinch it will be the best wooden coaster in the park! Quote
kblanken Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 One of the best wooden coasters I have ever ridden is in Northern California. Bigger is not always better. Which one was it, Neptune Beach Whoopee Coaster? Oops, you put is, not was. Is it Giant Dipper? Quote

Which one was it, Neptune Beach Whoopee Coaster? Oops, you put is, not was. Is it Giant Dipper? Of course. It certainly was NOT Grizzly. PGA, looking for something to market, called it bumpy. Honest! 1 Quote

TylerRider Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 Anyone else notice that Kings Island's Spokesperson Don Helbig made the announcement? Quote
HTCO Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 Gonna be honest. This ride dosen't appeal to me. Quote
TTD-120-420 Posted August 30, 2012 Posted August 30, 2012 It looks way too short, but I think it will be fun. Quote
KIBOB Posted September 5, 2012 Posted September 5, 2012 http://www.cagreatam...AMERICA-IN-2013 Look who the contact is at the bottom of the page. EDIT: TylerRider already pointed it out. Quote
thekidd33 Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 ACE has posted to their facebook page that the entire first drop will be enclosed, which sounds pretty awesome! Quote
thekidd33 Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 The park has posted a POV of the first test run. Looks like a great addition to the park, I really wouldn't mind seeing something like this at KI. Quote
TTD-120-420 Posted April 17, 2013 Posted April 17, 2013 Hate that the video isn't in HD. I would also like a ride like this to come to KI, but with higher capacity. Quote
