I think it has to be related to Kennywood. Here is the wording used on the initial facebook post announcing Project 412: "Something big is coming to Kennywood in 2019!" The Soaring with Dragon rumor sounded pretty good. Upon first glance, those numbers don't really seem to align well with that rumor.

I'll con someone into buying me something.

I went to BGW today for the first time in like 6 years. I haven't really kept my finger on the pulse of what other enthusiasts's feelings are, but I really liked InvadR! I had really low expectations and the ride surprised the hell out of me. I really enjoyed Tempesto as well. It was my first Sky Rocket 2 and it was weird, yet... fun! Anyway, a solid visit and I hope my next one is sooner rather than later.

They've got a make your own mac and cheese place this year. I like the crab cake sliders at Outer Hanks too. The burgers at Hippo's and Jukebox aren't bad, and all the sides and toppings are super fresh. I really want to try the Mac N Cheese restaurant at some point. $15 seems pretty steep though

Volcano was still down today. It was working fine on my previous visit May 6. Great visit today. The weather was pretty nice and the crowds were light. I was surprised that I305 was running two trains.

I was about to post that this ride still looks better than Goliath (which I still like but think, in some respects, was a wasted opportunity). I would love to get down to SFoG this year. I haven't been since 2006. The more I ride other B&M hypers, the more Goliath rises up my list of favorites. Wonder if my memory can live up to reality.

Twisted Timbers was only running one train yesterday. I guess because of the Steel Vengeance incident.

sorry to hear that. . I know you were concerned about that. but you got a great consolation prize, and you have the whole summer to keep working towards the goal! I've got some work to do too... Not only did I get denied on Twisted Timbers but for the first time in my life I got denied on I305. I went back to the park yesterday and successfully rode Twisted Timbers! It was an amazingly intense ride in the back. I feel very fortunate to live 20 minutes away from such an excellent coaster, not to mention I305 (which I was able to ride as well). As much as I'd like to say my one week of dieting was an absolute success, I'll chalk it up to better choice of clothing and better ride ops!

Sorry, man. I guess I'll find out for myself tomorrow.

Just curious, but how many TPR-ers are going to be at the park tomorrow and/or Sunday? It might be cool to do an unofficial meet-up.

Hey! I'm in the same boat as I want to weasel a trip to KI!

Hah! I'm in the same boat as you. My off-season workout/diet was a bust.

I've been watching a lot of LGR lately, I guess

I chose "love them" but "like them" would be more accurate. I think if not overused and with the right setting they could fill a certain niche viewpoint.

I've only ridden three RMC's-- Outlaw Run, Twisted Colossus, and Goliath. If RMC Hurler's as good as Goliath-- awesome! as I enjoyed it but not nearly as much as the other two. If it's better than Goliath then I'll be over the moon. I know you were being sarcastic but I think I totally had the mindset of "KD's getting a mediocre RMC". Now I'm getting a little more excited...

RMC T-REX REPLACING ANACONDA IN 2019!!!!

It was great seeing you at your home park three years ago. Time for you to make the journey east to mine! I don't know what parks you've been to but maybe you should do a mini-East Coast trip next year.

You'll ride this thing with me next year, Zo. Right?

I agree 100% (and I’m not just playing teacher’s pet). Coaster forums should be a safe haven from leaks. You don’t see movie spoilers on movie forums, so please don’t post them here for those that want to be surprised. If you want to see them, they are not hard to find. My feeling can be summed by what this one redditor said: Whoever leaked this is an ******* That being said, thank you very much you beautiful *******

Getting pretty psyched for this. If this even approaches what I've heard about Medusa Steel, KD will be in for a good one.

^I'm guessing that last one was tongue-in-cheek?

Did anyone see that rumor a couple weeks ago about the name of RMC Hurler being "Rotten Apple"? I haven't been keeping up with this thread lately so apologies if that was discussed. I'm personally not a fan of that one but I guess that might fit the pattern.

Time will tell. Looks like the Virginian Pilot article has been updated to 315 foot "attraction" as opposed to a coaster.
