November 23, 201411 yr I'm still bitter Wildcat was replaced with bleachers. I miss Wildcat and I miss Demon Drop.
November 23, 201411 yr Get thee to Dorney Park. As for Wildcat, go to Coney Island of Ohio and squint a lot. Or, without squinting, there's The North Georgia State Fair in Marietta.
November 23, 201411 yr Take out the wooden track on Racer/Beast put in RMC steel track but don't change the layout at all. Just make it a smoother ride so that generations will ride and not constantly complain like I hear people do almost every time I ride.
November 23, 201411 yr Agree don't touch The Beast. I wouldn't mind an RMC coaster added but would one a completely new one. RAcer and Beast are both classics, and part of Beast's appeal is the roughness.
November 23, 201411 yr Noooo, no RMC on the woodies, we got plenty of steel smooth coasters for those that can't handle the woodies.
November 23, 201411 yr Would Cedar Fair even go with RMC for anything after what happened with the New Texas Giant? They usually try to go with companies with consistency, especially in regards to safety. If they do, I wouldn't rule them out completely. They do look like fantastic rides. Just don't advertise them as woodies, please.
November 23, 201411 yr As others have said, nothing should be done to both ACE classics. The Beast is a unique wooden coaster because of its not an airtime machine like most woodies, and there probably wouldn't be a Rocky Mountain Construction Iron Horse coaster if it weren't for The Racer.
November 24, 201411 yr Going back to the water coaster idea. An additional water ride would be cool. However I feel Vortex's spot would go to a bigger ride then a water coaster. Potentially a large coaster to fill the void of Vortex.

Potentially a large coaster to fill the void of Vortex. I agree. I wouldn't mind a water coaster but I see it going over in Action Zone in place of Amazon Falls more, then move it to Soak City or somewhere else in the park. I think Amazon Falls looks a little out of place in Action Zone now and a water coaster would fit in great and still keep the same general feel of having AF there. And if AF was moved to Soak City it would give a nice high capacity attraction for them, something new without a huge investment, and a great way for people to cool off one the ride and as spectators while in the park and they aren't worried about getting drenched. I imagine over there the bridge would be packed with people.
November 24, 201411 yr If Amazon Falls is ever moved, it will likely be right out of Warren County. Be careful what you wish for. See: Kings Dominion, NJFTP,....
November 24, 201411 yr Man, I have heard a lot of great suggestions here. Other than the RMC'ing of any wood coaster, I really wouldn't mind any of them. I particularly like suggestions of family rides that all ages can do. With a 5 year old in tow, I want to be able to share as many ride experiences as possible. Having a son has made amusement park total experiences #1 for me. I have begun to enjoy the things that I had kinda left behind and forgot how enjoyable the total experience can be. That's what good memories are made of. It reminds me a lot of the family fun that we had back in the 80's going to KI annually.
