TheKlockster Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 wouldn't 2007 be the 20th anniversary for The Vortex I can't wait for the big Vortex Party. Do you think Vortex will have a party just as The Beast did ? Oh, there will be a party - whether or not the park has anything to do with it...
TOPGUN1993 Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Will coaster con be a non ace member thing and do you have to pay ?
pkikid Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 It's been rumored like many times before, that 2006 will be the last year for Vortex I doubt that they would take The Vortex out--look how many times The Racer has been rumored to leave when it is still there--rough as ever! But they'll take out my Adventure Express before they would take out a bigger (literally) attraction like The Vortex.
RollerNut Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 I don't, mine train coasters generally are family coasters, and family rides tend to hang around forever.
PKIVortex Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Vortex i doubt will be removed it moves so many people you dont even understand how many people it moves but id like to see something big but that all depends on who buys the parks I understand perfectly fine. Roughly 1050 people per hour. Vortex could pull 1500 pph, if every train is out by the bell, and they are no empty seats. When I worked Vortex in 2001, on good hours we could get been 1000 and 1200 per hour.
Enchanted Voyager Posted March 4, 2006 Posted March 4, 2006 Yes The Vortex is a well maintained piece of machinery. Good staff also. It always seems to run smooth there, hats off to ya. Second tip top crew would have to be The Beast. Great applause for ya both.
Return_of_Yogi Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 no really, theres a new bond, new movie, it's a well known property. I think its a real big possibility. and some people on these boards "refrences" and " informants" are no more than the voices in thier own heads, so dont take everything to heart.
Monkey Joe Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 Lets see we all know its not a water park or kids area. So other than some flat rides what else could it be other than the stunt show? Sure the new ride is already locked in and will get made for 2007. Wonder if the new owners will keep the name or change it like they did with Top Gun?
KIBeast Posted March 9, 2006 Posted March 9, 2006 A cool steel coaster would be nice. One thats outside with a few tunnels. Lots of inversions and all that good stuff. Don't know what company would do it, but I would love to see a giant steel coaster. Either that or a suspended coaster. PKI already has a suspended coaster...Top Gun. I am assuming you were meaning an inverted coaster, which PKI could definitely use. Either that or a hyper or floorless coaster.
Vortexlover2 Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 007 in 2007 think about it. Funny... but come to think of it good idea!
The Interpreter Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 PKI has an inverted coaster. The second best one in the state, as a matter of fact...
Jasper Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 The only one in that list i can find that would be cool is MI:3
TOPGUN1993 Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 PKI already has a suspended coaster...Top Gun. Don't they have three ? Topgun Face/Off Runaway Reptar
flightoffear1996 Posted March 10, 2006 Posted March 10, 2006 You think the attraction maybe locked in but with the change of ownership and mayybe they don't like the ride or whatever is going in and could just simply cancle it and not put in anything.
F!TZ Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 I was chatting with some ace members in the line for The Beast and we were talking about the next big coaster and this woman from cleveland who knows the park president says that he told her they weren't building anymore big coasters! what a shame!
BoddaH1994 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 I was chatting with some ace members in the line for The Beast and we were talking about the next big coaster and this woman from cleveland who knows the park president says that he told her they weren't building anymore big coasters! what a shame! I don't know how much I would trust your sources, but I am willing to say that they guessed correctly.
wickedv6 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 I believe this too.. because "They" more than likely won't be Running KI next year.. after the sell.. the new owners might build a new coaster.. but not the current ones. So technically this is correct
TOPGUN1993 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 We need a big steel coaster FOF was the last big steel coaster then was Vortex.
Snake Attack! Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Like i said in the other thread i would be content in 2007 with some new colors for maybe coney mall, faceoff, Vortex, top gun, or just somthing new to look at.
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted February 20, 2024 Posted February 20, 2024 And we got Firehawk which was relocated from Geauga Lake and lasted 11 years and now a giga stands in its place lol. 4

silver2005 Posted March 3, 2024 Posted March 3, 2024 1. That sequel never happened. 2. That name has other meanings not exactly good for an amusement park. 3

We need some kind of Star Trek experience. It is like the longest lasting Paramount brand and their most successful. I think they are holding out on it so that people go to Star Trek: The Experience. A Star Trek themed coaster next to FOF where Firehawk (and eventually Orion) went would've been cool lol On 1/13/2006 at 11:14 PM, PKIVortex said: It's been rumored like many times before, that 2006 will be the last year for Vortex I hope it's not true. But if it is hopefully they will replace it with a nice big looper. Well you were off by 13 years and it's now just a giant empty field lol.
