There is no point in getting worked up over these awards, since we already know who the "real" winners of these awards should be.

^Haha, nope. Shows how much I know.

I can honestly say you are the only 14 year old I know who has tried birch beer.

My guess is only a family coaster for those years. Cedar Fair has only been adding one major coaster per year right now. 2012: Leviathan 2013: Gatekeeper 2014: Banshee Gold Striker opened in 2013 too, but it was planned to open in 2009, not 2013. So I think we'll see coasters going into other Cedar Fair parks for a bit before we see CP get a big, major coaster again.

You always know you're about to read a good post when it starts out like this.

Then they could put it in Deja Vu's spot.

I loved Galaxyland's Mindbender. So intense and so smooth. Being inside, that thing just roars and echos throughout its section of the park. It's now my new #1 coaster. Sadly, I never got to try the insane backwards car, although it gives me even more reason to go back. I can't even imagine how crazy it would have been with the original trains.

^ I know that, it's just that a new, major coaster is expensive and it means more maitenance work, which the park already seems to struggle with, just to have 20 coasters. Also, if they add a kiddie coaster for their 20th, it wouldn't be as impressive. Why doesn't SFMM ever receive a relocated coaster? If they are going for the most coasters, wouldn't it be cheaper?

Wouldn't the GP just think it was a lamer version of X2 and Green Lantern? Does SFMM really need 20 coasters? I mean, if the park has trouble maintaining the coasters they already have, why do they keep adding more when they already have the record? SFA could really benifit from Scream, and the park has other coasters that other smaller SF parks would love to get. If their attendance is worse than seasonal parks, why do they keep getting heavily invested in every other year?

If I had to guess, I would say Carowinds' next coaster would be a launcher. If Hurler got the Iron Horse treatment, I would bet KD would want it too.

I'm pretty sure every park with a red coaster gets that claim by the GP.

I've always loved the first drop the most. Its normally the most exciting part of the coaster to me.

I rode Leviathan 15 times in 1 day. Not that impressive, but still, it was awesome.

Helix, hands down. Even before everything else for 2014 was announced, I knew it would be unlikely something would beat this epic ride. Whis it was closer to home.

Then CGA builds an awsome woodie, only SFGAm builds what will likely be an even better one.
