Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Now I was thinking. Even though it's not likely Vortex will be removed anytime soon, I actually think a ground up RMC would fit well in The Vortex plot of land. I was thinking a ground up topper track woodie. I was thinking some type of car theme since it's in Coney Mall right by the antique cars and the jukebox diner. Similar to Lightning Rod's theme. Or they could theme it around The Beast since it's right by The Beast. Again, I don't think Vortex will be removed anytime soon, but just an idea. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purdude86 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Something car themed like Lightning Rod I think would go great there as well to fit in with the area theming. I always thought it would be a great spot for a div coaster as well, but agree that I don't see Vortex leaving anytime soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoF96" Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 We already have our car themed coaster though. edit: two of them actually lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutterie Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I think whatever comes next will definitely be in the zone between Rivertown and Coney Mall, probably either where Vortex is or next to it. There is so much land that just needs deforested for a nice little compact coaster to sit right there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Browntggrr Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I'm thinking KI will have an Intamin about 2025. A style like Maverick. Hopefully it will not come at the expense of another ride that has been rumored to be removed. And yes, Intamin. Many of their rides have a long history of issues and others the complete opposite. But let's be excited about 2020. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if they are going to build a new coaster, they should remove Backlot and use that area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindingSon Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Invertigo and Congo area would be more ripe than Rivertown/Coney 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutterie Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Invertigo and Congo area would be more ripe than Rivertown/Coney Not really. That area saw the addition of Banshee in 2013, and the closest modern coaster to where I marked is the giga, which isn't even technically in either Coney or Rivertown Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope they don't do this. I don't know what BLSC gets so much hate but I really don't think that one should go anywhere.

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 If I were to get rid of a coaster it would be Vortex, Invertigo, or (brace yourselves and don't fight me) Adventure Express. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they had to remove something I'd say it's gotta be Vortex. I think this relates back to the poor decisions Paramount made. Before the junkyard coaster was installed, this was a most beautiful part of the park. Antique cars, excellent landscape, and our flying eagles. All that is gone and we have a decent coaster with an ugly theme, put in a wrong section of the park. I don't hope for a removal, but I'd love to see it reimagined with less rip-rap, shipping containers, junked cars etc. Up the landscaping, soften it up and maybe redo the theme to a sinister prescense that The Beast and Mystic Timbers has... continue those story lines. You launch out of the station to escape the wrath of ....and run run run until you stop to catch your breath, but the....chases you thru a dark tunnel...I just think many of the nostalgia folks are salty even though they enjoy the junkyard coaster.

ldhudsonjr Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Yeah I remember the old antique cars being there. Been going to the park my whole life but I I'm having trouble remembering the flying eagles. What were those? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeastFarmer Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 They were the gliders that came from Coney island. Got sent to Carowinds. Originally installed in the area formerly known as Coney Mall, they were moved at some point the where the basketball challenge is near the junkyard coaster entry plaza.

Maverick44 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Yes that area was amazing. The BEST car of any park I have ever been to. That coaster should of went to Action Zone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUN&ONLY! Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I must say, the fact that the ride experience can vary so much on this rollercoaster is incredible. It is also a very compact coaster, so it could fit where Invertigo/Congo Falls is. The only problem I see is how the park could run multiple trains on it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Yeah, something like that would be cool, but I believe it would be a nightmare to run 3 trains. If we get a Gerstauler, I think it'd be something like Hangtime at Knott's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUN&ONLY! Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 You guys are talking crazy stuff with having rides removed from other parks and being added to Kings Island. What the park most likely will get is a simple relocation of the overrated Steel Vengeance, so Cedar Point can use its former location for a new B&M Dive to replace Valravn. While they are at it, they should scrap Maverick (no one likes it anyways), so Cedar Point can get the largest B&M Dive coaster ever. I am joking!

What CP is going to do:. Leave Steel Vengeance. Take down TTD, Maverick, and MF, melt the steel down and send it to be reused to CSF. They'll build Magnum XXXL 325 by B&M.
