Dom497 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) B&M inverts have a large cover that covers the wheels. This makes the train look wider. I now believe this is what we are seeing in the blueprints after another user pointed this out. The other possibility is that there is some sort of theming on the sides of the train.

thedevariouseffect Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Why did you put quotations around cover, that's exactly what it is the "cover" is covering. 1
DBInternational Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 If the "new" blueprint of the station is correct...this is without a doubt an invert. Needless to say I'm highly disappointed. KI already has two inverts and a suspended...I could kinda throw Firehawk in that mix as well. Does KI really need this type of "fad" coaster? IDK...I would have LOVED to seen a wing or a dive machine. Oh well, maybe the new Action Zone could be called "Track over your head land". Just another ride I won't be riding. -T. Forsaken. It seems foolish to judge something before it has been tried. And to be "highly disappointed" about a world record-breaking attraction before it has even been released seems very childish. 5
robintodd Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 To boldly go where no man has gone before..... 5
UnrealNightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 No we still have 35 hours of "decoding" left to do! What I mean by decoding is saying the same things we've already said 50 more times. 10
Rustbucket Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I guess I need to add Busch Garden Tampa to my travel destination next year. I was talking to people about exactly this for years. Before saying inverted wing ride, how can you design this?
DBInternational Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Yeah lets say things over and over again!
LongliveKingsCobra Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 So how many of yall will be around after the ride is built? Not too many. You come and go, stir it up watch it melt then leave. You'll have your fun till you realize there is nothing else to really talk about on this forum that yall can try and troll, argue, and be little. Soon, you'll only be a member with a last login of a year ago. Soon....Soon.... 7
UnrealNightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Some people don't even know about the cranes! 7
calakapepe Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 We didn't have this detailed of the old Thunder Alley area until now. This isn't completely redundant, people.
Dom497 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I was gonna post this video at the 24 hour mark, but seeing that this thread is slowly dieing, I thought now would be a good time. (I'll probably repost this at 10pm tonight ) 4
RailRider Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I was about to post the final countdown but Jumped the Shark instead.
Jayblazer Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Right even twitter has gone silent. Come on @KingsIslandPR give us something juicy to speculate!! 1
UnrealNightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I wonder how many of you wont sleep tonight. 3
Dom497 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 ^No, no, no, that will happen tomorrow night when half of us say we love the coaster while the other half say we hate it. 7
LongLiveTheSmurfRide Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Despite our expectations being confirmed or shattered, I find it hard to believe that anyone on this board will refuse to ride it because it's this or that. I also find it hard to believe that if it's a solid B&M coaster that anyone will not enjoy it. Maybe you'll pine for something "more", no matter what it is, but I'm sure it will be a fun ride. I'm excited. 13
thedevariouseffect Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Lol, I'm sleeping GOOOD tomorrow night... Early Tech--IE get to work an hour early for the whole week Sooo...staying up late @ KI for the announcement, probably won't be back till 2300 or so 0500 is going to come pretty hard...uuuughh But so worth it 7
UnrealNightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I wont get home tomorrow night till 1am or later. And I have to work tonight. I'm going to try and get in 4 hours of sleep before we leave at noon tomorrow. I'll probably nap in the car as well. Gonna be a long night for me. 2

Yes, because we really need a "fad" coaster like a Dive Machine or a Wing rider. lol 2

thedevariouseffect Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Well I'm thinking it's not ganna be to drawn out. I don't have to be back at a specific time. If it's 0100, so what lol. Just ganna need LOTS of caffiene... Mountain Dew here I come 3
UnrealNightmare Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I'm thinking at least till 10:30 PM since the VIP tickets offer meals till 11PM.
thedevariouseffect Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 Yeah if it's over by 2230, I can make it back by 2315 easily
secondson Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 So that's what the layout of the girls' restroom looks like.. http://i872.photobucket.com/albums/ab289/AlexRB1994/1375829491.jpg Now you just need to learn what the layout of a girl looks like. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm not trying to be inappropriate. But I just had to say it.
kibrian24 Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 I'm new to the site and I really haven't been able to get all into the stuff that happens before a coaster or any other attraction is announced and this my first time to actually be able to figure out what its going to be and I have to say after reading all of these comments the new attraction for 2014 could be something you people have talked about or it could be something nobody has mentioned yet which is even more exciting. Plus we already know its going to be new in some way shape or form because its gonna be world record breaking. But only a day will tell and after its announced we can just all start turning our focus to the attraction itself 4
malem Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 ^^^ I'd allow 20-30 minutes just to get out of the parking lot at 22:30. 6

I'm excited. I'm excited with ya!Any large addition to any park is reason to be excited. The park is reinvesting the money I spend there to better my & my family's experience. The only downfall for me is that I do not live close enough to KI to make the 5+ hour trip down. I did consider it, but ironically, relatives from Cincy are coming up late Thursday/ early Friday. The KIC livestream will be a great runner-up to actually being there! 9
