Well yeah, but if it involves his name and is "themed" around or has anything to do with his father, you think he would at least be invited.... -

Holy Crap, it has been 17 years since I was employed there??? On a side note, we did know somewhat of a large scale invert coming the next summer, and poof, Raptor showed up. So don't count out the employees knowing anything. Sometimes "big" secrets are hard to keep....... -

That was one of my major concerns, the bottleneck this might cause upon entering the park from the tunnel. Also I understand from earlier that the pathway immediately to the left up the hill passed the Dodgem was to be closed if I am not mistaken?? -

If this is the area they are looking at building upon, I really don''t see much in the way of a coaster going there as MF already occupies pretty much all the available ground space with supports and such?? -

They already know what they are building, they just want to see if people guess it right. Water ride is out since it is not an option. And apparently they are reading these type of forums as they know of all the different speculations about the "island" being turned into a halloween thing.....given that was one of the options, and how many gp type people would look at that website and really understand what all that meant anyway? -

That's pretty much been the bane of this thread all along. Imagine if basketball had this problem, and random people just ran out onto the court and starting shooting with a ball they brought from home. The rules really aren't that hard: You can't post a photo until you've earned your turn. /Not that I really care anymore, mind you. LMAO, why are simple things so hard to understand? -

The RCDB link says that it will have 2 trains of 12 riders. I hope they get a good crew, or this could spell disaster for wait times......... -

http://www.rcdb.com/8612.htm Here is the rcdb info, top speed of 50 doesn't sound like there will be much more of a drop than the original 95' top hat thing. Personally I think this will be awesome and a great fit for this small park. Plus it will be the first thing people see coming into the park. On the other hand, so much for trying to get to the ride before the crowds get in, this will be the first thing after exiting the tunnel!! Hopefully the get the queue is built away from the entrance so as not to bottleneck getting into the park. While they are bringing back rides (Bayern Kurve) and saving rides (Turnpike), maybe they could get the Rotor back up on the hill where it belongs!!!! -

So they are saying at the bottom of that page that we have been waiting 35 years for this??? Doesn't Carowinds say something along the same lines, like since the parks opening year? I guess this might be where the ligtning striking twice comes into play, 2 major rides the same year.....only 200 miles apart. -

Think about it, on the job page, wouldn't they specify that it takes 1 whole year of job training. That seems like a major detail to me, that they would not leave out. Why would it take a year of training? If you get hired you will be working on all the attractions in the park, 2 of which are already over 300 feet tall. They would be working on many rides, including the new ride. I think that posting tell us as much as the giga label did. Just adding more evidence towards how high it may be. If you noticed, that was exactly my point. Anyway, on some forum (I dont remember which one), someone said that there is a new permit titled "2010 Coaster+Station" on Hanover County's Site that estimates the completion date at December of 2010. For those of you who are a bit slow, if it was to be built and open for 2010, the completion date should have been estimated for December 2009 (they make it early to give construction some wiggle room, for weather, etc.) My personal opinion, maybe they are constructing a new section of the park around the Giga, and it will not be done until 2011 (more attractions, restrooms, food, etc.). Well they did build the Anaconda one summer and leave it halfassed until the next season!! LMAO -
