^But hopefully CF found their flaws in last years Windseekers, and might ship parts earlier so they can work all the kinks out, and get the ride open on time.

That drop section looks so fun!

If the Point gets an awesome coaster in 2013, I will have missed it by one year! Then again, my dad made a promise to take me in 2 years, so I might be going 2012 and 2013!

I will get some construction footage and pictures of Verbolten when I go, and I'll post 'em here! Maybe the Rhine River drop will be completed by then?

Millennium Force, Top Thrill Dragster, Maverick, and Magnum all sound like awesome rides! Cannot wait for next september!!!

^Um, you would have to seriously remodel the Intimidator 305 style trains to fit it on a Arrow track. Vekoma and Arrow are very similar in track and train type, so a Vekoma train on an Arrow track is plausable, but an Intamin on an Arrow? I don't think that would be very good after modifications to the train's heartline and width of train to fit the new track. Just my two cents though.

I won a Busch Gardens Christmas Town ticket!!! I cannot wait for some night time Alpie & Mach Tower rides!!!

^Oh that reminds me, is Magnum-XL 200 rough?

Plus with a price like BGW charges for tickets (63.99), I think it wouldn't be a problem to weld some thing on Big Bad Wolf. It's more expensive than Cedar Point ! Probably just because it has such great service, scenery, etc.

I forget where I heard that rumor. It might have actually been on this thread. Someone posted a picture of the transition after the drop and said," This may be the reason the ride was so unique, but in the end, was its downfall." It might have been on BGW fans, but I don't remember. They also said there was rumor that it had to be welded every week.

Would that be Geagua Lake you are taking about? Well, I don't know what really happened there so I can't say anything about that. What I do know is that you atill have 2 other CF parks in ohio!

I don't see why everybody doesn't like Dick Kinzel. He bought many dirty, nasty Paramount parks, and shaped them up just fine. I love what he has done with Cedar Fair.

Whenever I have been to Kings Dominion, Anaconda was only 2 trains wait.

Isn't MaXair a HUSS giant frisbee?

^Yes! I hope something similar to that happens so I can get better camera shots of Intimidator 305! I actually wouldn't mind Anconda being removed because next time I go, I know that my family wont ride it after last times experience (major headbanging, and they didn't like it crawling through the corkscrews). So, now that I have my credit, take it away, and make a great flat or coaster there!

Wasn't there a rumor that BBW's drop/transition had to be welded every week?

I know I sound stupid for asking this, but is a screamster a scaractor?

Intamin owns the patent for its own drop track system, which is not what Zierer is using. Zierer designed their own or bought a patent from another company so it has nothing to do with Intamin other then they do the same thing, just in different ways. Intimin only has control of its own designs, not a monopoly on the entire market of "dropping track". Fixed.

Like an Intamin Rocket Coaster Well that alien car themed congo. No no no no. Its a congo that aliens invaded, with a highway that only mini coupes and NASCARs drive on. Oh yea, theres also a big volcano there too.

Oh I know! I am a big Intamin fan! They are my favorite coaster manufacturing company actually. That would be awesome to have Intimidator 305, Volcano, and said rocket coaster in one area!

Like an Intamin Rocket Coaster And then there could be the Intamin AG trio in the Congo area!

^That is actually a fair statement, but Loch Ness Monster at BGW is still running great! So it is probably just a Six Flags thing. Either way, I have already been on Anaconda, and if it is torn down, it won't be missed THAT much. The thing I like about Anaconda is its drop to the tunnel and the loop/sidewinder. After that, well... its just "meh".

Thanks for the update Steve! That transition into the upwards helix is looking similar to Intimidator 305's twisties, but with lapbars! I cannot wait to ride. 2012 is a big year of coasters for me!

^I am excited for Verbolten and Windseeker. I have never been on a Windseeker. I would like to ride a Windseeker. Thats all I am saying.

Wait... am I missing something? Other than Verbolten, why is 2012 such a big year for Va? Windseeker at Kings Dominion.
