People spotted activity by Iron Wolf's station today. Crews are painting markers. Most likely going to be a coaster then! But what kind...

Damnit! And I was hoping for a launched inverted 17 looping RMC wooden coaster!

If it was a StarFlyer, wouldn't the video have shown the sky and not rocks/ground? The Six Flags take on Dinosaurs Alive! would fit perfectly, I didn't even think of that, although I really hope it doesn't happen and that it's an actual ride, since personally I do not like Dinosaur educational exhibits in theme parks, and I'm still wondering why the heck Cedar Fair parks built Dinosaurs Alive stuff in most of their parks. But that's just my opinion. Maybe a dinosaur-themed roller coaster, water ride, or dark ride? It's over 125 feet so that rules out any sort of dark ride.

Hearing signs have been posted. It's going to be over 125 feet. SWEET!!!

If they remove the Wilderness Theater it would open up a large plot of land for a roller coaster to take Iron Wolf's spot. I have not heard of a height approval meeting to build over 125 feet yet, but I'll keep my ears open. Perhaps a launched coaster?

Please no. Why? Are you too fat to fit into an RMC coaster safely?

I'll be at the park on Saturday and am interested in checking out these new restraints. The old restraints didn't bother me at all. I'm skinny but have long legs. Should I be worried?

Wow, Thunder Run looked like a great coaster for it's day. Wish they could get it running like that! Bring back the double up!

Wow, this ride is really looking incredible. I hope I can make it overseas next year to ride this bad boy!! Such a great layout, unique, and full of surprises. Build more like these in the states!

How was Goliath at La ronde compaired to Behemoth?... I've been on Behemoth, and am going to La Ronde in like a week. Goliath at La Ronde simply has more hills, but lacks the speed and duration of airtime in hills. Also, the V style seating on Behemoth gives it an edge.

Amen. Trim brakes won't save a sub-par layout! They are here to stay. If you want a stellar B&M hypercoaster, take the trip to King's Island.

Hypercoasters: Tons of great airtime, comfortable seats, and just overall great layouts. I've ridden Raging Bull, Apollo's Chariot, Nitro, Goliath (SFoG), Goliath (La Ronde), Behemoth, and Diamondback. I prefer the V seating for the amazing feeling of isolation.

Rode a floor model at IAAPA and loved it! This should be amazing!

I also saw IgNight tonight! From a technology and visual standpoint, the show was spot on. The projected fireworks turning into real fireworks really blew my mind! Such a neat effect. I feel that the 3D looking effects worked best; the flipping tiles, the heart snake going through doors, etc. 4K projectors never fail to impress. The storyline seemed nearly impossible to follow and really distracted from what could have been an incredible show. Parts of the show were also "uncomfortably cheesy" as my friends and I put it, where you were almost embarrassed to be watching. I hope as time goes by, they evolve the show into different concepts. I think the show would be better as a more "music driven" production than a storyline. Play top 40 songs, get the audience to sing, dance, and clap along! Guest interaction is a must to generate the type of energy this show lacked. My real hope: A horror themed show for Fright Fest!

I've done all 4 parks in a day plenty of times, with time to spare. However, this was during off-peak times on weekdays. Saturday in August? Better hire disabled guides!

UNREAL!!!! That is KILLER!!! Rock on everyone, I am so glad I could be a part of the team.

I seriously can't thank everyone enough for your support. I am completely blown away. Thanks to all that came together to raise an incredible amount of money. Every dollar WILL change a life. Congrats, Team TPR! I have tears in my eyes right now.

That might fall around the time of my Texas trip but if not, I'd make the drive up from Chicago. NO OPEN BAR?!? HOW DARE THEY?!?!? Do what I do, bring a flask.

Shot a POV yesterday of Hades 360! Low mounted camera, nice sunny day! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5qjwaiGH3 The ride was great! I've always been a fan of Hades and the new addition only makes it better. The Timberliner cars are very comfortable and make the rough sections much more tolerable. More video to come soon!

Hades 360. Killer ride, love those Timberliners!

The end is near! I am just a couple bucks shy of first place for Cedar Point. If anyone was looking to throw a couple dollars to C4K, it would be much appreciated! Thanks guys!!

I got you, Sue!!! Congrats on reaching your goal!!

I was just knocked out of first place for Cedar Point, but by less than $60. If anyone is looking to donate and can help, I would much appreciate it! If anyone donates $30 or more, I'll mail you my unused Gatekeeper media day shoulder bag and a GCI tote bag. Let me know if you're interested. I also found an original, unworn, season pass only limited edition Millennium Force teeshirt from the ride's opening. May be willing to part with that, too. If anyone is interested, make an offer. Thank you so much!

Looks like you hit your goal, Rich!
