Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
DoinItForTheFame replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Yes, the Marina gate opens at 9:00 for pass holders. Also, does anyone know what the upcharge is for the Sling Shot Ride?? Is it $25.00 per person like most places?? -
Your longest coaster road trip
DoinItForTheFame replied to larrygator's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
We have a 2149.94 mile, 34 hour (round trip) trip coming up soon... Sadly only we only have time to visit two parks! All of this is being done in 4 days. 1st day driving to hotel outside Kings Island. 2nd day at Kings Island, then after leaving Kings Island at 10pm, driving to our hotel outside Sandusky. 3rd day at Cedar Point. Leaving Cedar Point at midnight, then driving back to hotel. 4th day driving all the way back home... To be back at work the next day. -
Your Dream Lineup
DoinItForTheFame replied to WonderlandFan's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Maybe I am in the minority here but my dream coaster line up already exist... It's called Cedar Point. They have everything I could want... Minus maybe an RMC... But I am sure that is coming soon! -

I agree! I was super excited!!! Then I realized it wasn't real and I was disappointed. Still looks good none the less! -

I personally think that looks great. I would love it if Cedar Point were to have a similar layout to what you came up with! -

Since you speak of it, and for those who haven't seen it, here's my "bad a$$ RMC conversion" Oh. My. God. Cedar Point PLEASE!!!! On this site, if you post something like this you need pictures, or basically no one is going to believe you. -
True? We have had a few hotel stays while on vacation! The person below me loves Apple products.

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
DoinItForTheFame replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
There is no need, but still something that they could do. Just to make it more unique, and interesting looking. Also, how is the construction site for the 1,500 ft tall 9,000 ft long, 78 inversion Aquatrax dive machine coming along? -
Post your milestone coasters
DoinItForTheFame replied to bgwfreak's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
With our trip to Kings Island coming up soon I will be hitting a new Milestone coaster. I'm going to make Banshee number 700!! -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
DoinItForTheFame replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
We have a trip coming up to Kings Island soon, and I can not stop thinking about Drop Tower. I have a love hate relationship with Drop Towers... I love the drop on them once I realize that I am not dying... But I HATE the slow ride to the top, and the sitting up there waiting to drop. Having never been on an Intamin Drop Tower... I have only been on S&S Combo towers... How bad is Drop Tower?? Like do you mentally freak out all the way up, or is it not as bad as I am thinking, and I am just over reacting??? -
What is your favorite launch coaster?
DoinItForTheFame replied to EuroTre's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
From what I have heard Dodonpa's launch is not pleasant... It's painful. Everyone says it is like being hit in the chest by a bag of bricks. That just doesn't sound fun to me. I will gladly take TTD's launch over it any day. Fast, fun, and not painful, and still packs a punch! -
Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
DoinItForTheFame replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I would personally like to see them get rid of the lift hill supports, and do a truss style support system like they did with Goliath. That would really open up views to the water like the park did when they got rid of Disaster transport and put in Gatekeeper. Reasoning behind this, in a documentary I recently watched "From Dreams To Screams" about Gatekeeper they talked about opening up the views of the beach, and water (Granted Mean Streak is not near the beach) It would still be nice to see them use a truss style support system to open up the views to the water. One of the best parts of Cedar Point is the location, and Mean Streak really obstructs the views of the water. -

I agree with you on this one. There are only 4 Intamin Accelerator Coaster of the 15 out there that reach around 80mph. (Without going over, IE: Top Thrill Dragster, and Kingda Ka) So either the layout is going to have to be rther long, or its going to be a one trick pony, like TTD, Stealth, or KK... Where you go launch, tower, and then brake run.

Images appear now. The coaster is looking good! My only complaint is on the brake run, you have drive tires, even though the track is sloped downwards. I feel like if you were to take the drive tires off it would look, and act more realistic. However, that's just a minor thing and other than that the coaster looks great! I like the way you used different type of track with different types of trains to give the coaster a more unique custom built feeling.

False. I prefer Vodka. The person below me likes water rides.
