in what ways? i am almost certain it will be the tallest flying rollercoaster, but that is not really "major" i mean, i do not see how any major records can be broken, defainately not tallest or fastest, nor will it have most inversions, and if it did, cedar point won't care, they havn't installed an inverting ride in a long while.
I don't see where your going with this, but nothing will 'dangle over cedar point's head' the sad fact is that only record brakers are really known by the GP, it can be the best coaster in the world, but if its not tall, big, etc it won't matter. quality can only go so far for a coaster's reputation, but it shouldn't be that way.
(example, many believe S:ROS is a better ride then MF, but you always hear about MF because it was the tallest in the world.
