Tremors

Awesome work with the scenery. The coasters blend in with the scenery very well.

WOW! SheiKra's theming seriously beats Griffon's "theme". The entire park looks amazing too. I'm glad you had a great time.

Is it just me or does that SFOG brochure look very similar to the Mindbender's opening year brochure??

Lightning Loops

Pics 3 and 4 are REALLY small, I can't tell what they're supposed to be aside from the comments. Either way, excellent shots. Its really cool seeing parks like these in the off season.

^ Your pics rock. Just seeing what all these parks look like back in the day is very fascinating. Moonwalks still exist and they're still really popular at birthday parties and church/school fundraisers, unless you're talking about something else.

I see a TON of headchopper moments. This ride looks to be very insane. I wanna go to Orlando to check it out.

Dang those tanks are HUGE! The turn is also very awesome looking!

Dead Memories - Slipknot

Looks amazing so far. Can't wait to see the rest of the park

I see a green B&M in the lefthand corner and an Intamin Rocket in the bottom righthand section.

Those new monorail trains are awesome. They look very retro.

^ That's could be possible if Herschend decides to keep all the rides at CC. ^^ That's true! It's very difficult to come up with a truly innovative design nowadays.

Or maybe they have no idea there's a coaster in America that has the same name. So El Toro isn't good enough for you?

I have some... "Is Apollo's Chariot a kiddie ride?" "Does BBW go upside down?" (I actually thought BBW went upside down at one point as well) Me: Did you ride Griffon? GP: What's that?

^ B&M seems to be the least-likely coaster manufacturer that would build a 4-D coaster. In fact all their creations (except the invert) are based off of designs that are tried and true... Stand Up - Originally designed by Arrow, Togo and Intamin picked the concept up. This was B&M's first design. Sit Down - Perfected long before B&M went into the coaster industry Invert - B&M's only truly innovative design Hyper - Perfected by Arrow and Morgan before B&M picked it up Dive Machine - Basically a sit down with bigger cars and a vertical drop Floorless - A sit down without a floor Flyer - Perfected by Vekoma before B&M picked it up. The 4-D coaster hasn't been perfected enough to actually convince B&M to build a prototype.

^ 1. It's Las Vegas. 2. Most parks usually have to plan ahead two-three years ahead of time for huge attractions because they need to come up with the design plans, send the plans to the company, work with the town council to get the ride approved, work out design flaws, figure out where the ride will go, etc. It's not like RCT where you just plop a ride down on a random place and expect it to make money. 3. The pieces are probably still sitting there. ^^ Just because Kansas City is getting a water park doesn't mean that WOF needs a new coaster. I live in a popular tourist area, Hampton Roads VA, and both major parks in the state recently got new coasters on top of a number of waterpark expansions. That doesn't mean that a new coaster needs to be added. Now Missouri already has TWO BRAND NEW GCI's. There's really no need for another coaster. If it were a Missouri coaster, SDC is most likely to get it considering CC closed and all. Even though KC is trying to attract tourists, that doesn't mean WOF is required to add another expensive coaster to its ride collection, although it would be nice. PS: Its Schlitterbahn, just to let you know.

States I've lived in... Arizona Virginia (live here right now) States I've visited... California Texas Maryland Pennsylvania Massachusetts New York Indiana Florida Nevada North Carolina New Jersey DC -Does it count Overnight stay Oregon Alabama Oklahoma South Carolina Tennessee Vermont Rode Through Arkansas Illinois (once flown in, once driven through) Georgia Delaware Missouri Michigan Ohio New Mexico Washington Louisiana Connecticut Rhode Island Also I've been to British Columbia, Quebec, and Ontario

^ Of course it's gonna be someone's new toy! It's gotta go to a theme park sometime soon unless B&M likes to place random track pieces in a field outside their manufacturing plant. Doubt it!

NOOO!! I loved playing with the turtles! Bring them back please!

I have three four hour classes that I take once a week. Two lecture classes (Biology 101, Philosophy 101) and one lab class (Bio 101 Lab) I also have one 2 hour class which I take twice a week, and an online course. I had to take a Bio 101 test yesterday. It was INSANELY hard. I really hope I didn't fail, but I kinda think I did. Luckily Philosophy is easy today.

^ NOBODY knows where the track is going except the park and B&M. It could go anywhere, even CP since CP doesn't have a sitdown or a floorless (and the closest floorless got moved to VA). It completely depends on what your view of prototype is. A prototype is generally a coaster that has been built for the first time. WT is the first Intamin impule to have two twsted spikes, MF is the first full-circuit coaster to reach 300+ feet, and TTD is Intamin's first full-circuit coaster to reach 400+ feet. You could also call it an upgrade on an existing design, but it completely depends on your opinion on what prototype coasters are. But do you REALLY think B&M has the technology to send a coaster into another dimension? Why do they need to? What if they decide to build a B&M or a GCI, which never build coasters with 100 degree drops? The only known coaster type that goes beyond 97 degrees is S&S's El Loco model. With today's economy, an El Loco or Gerstlauer Eurofighter is possible, but I don't think CP HAS to build a coaster with a >100 degree drop.
