The cinnamon bread might disagree with you. -

If/when CP gets a GCI, will they run 2 trains or opt for 3 with a "Shed?" And on that note, will "Sheds" become the new norm for GCIs? -

Outlaw Run? Watching the layout being revealed through construction was so exciting for Outlaw Run! So much speculation and excitement! It's pretty much the only reason I like using coaster forums! With OR, we saw that overbank/inversion and that's all the discussion was focused on for weeks partly because it was one of the only inversions on a wooden coaster at the time. And then the park announced that double barrel roll at the end. Sh!t was flipped. When this does open, it could potentially challenge Maverick as best coaster at the Point. -

Plus, there's not a whole lot of space to take a good picture from without trespassing. So these one at a time photos will have to be enough for now. -
That would be amazing!! That way those who want spinning can ride, and get spinning, while those who can't do spinning can still enjoy the ride without the spinning!! Especially if they had the forwards/backwards trains! But with Thunderation no longer running the backwards train, I'm not all that optimistic.

2016 was my second season as a PowTow op. After I applied, I was asked my top 3 attractions I'd like to work. I put PowTow as my #1 choice and spent most of the season there. -

I haven't fully decided whether or not I'll be returning yet. But if I do, I'll probably go back to Power Tower. -

I think we can all appreciate what Magnum did for the coaster world, being the first hyper and all that jazz. I applaud CP and Arrow for taking such a risk at the time. But considering what other coasters are at the park, it's a pretty "meh" ride. -

While I am not well-versed in Sandusky's FAA regulations/where the boundaries are, I would not be surprised if Tony had an anti-aircraft gun in case of nosy drones. -

Seems to be a simplified version of the previous logo. But at least it's better than the LA Chargers' logo. In other news, the park's website has also been given an update. -

It has? In what way? The same way that CP has confirmed what year RMC Mean Streak's opening. -
I've seen many people post "I hope the spinning's not too extreme" over the last few pages so correct me if I'm wrong, but most spinning coasters are freely spinning and how much spinning to be had is based on rider size/placement and chance. There are always tricks to the spinning (just don't ask me what they are). But either way, SDC and Mack will create one amazing coaster.

Does anyone else think that the park will eventually replace the Arrow trains on Tennessee Tornado with the new Vekoma ones? -

I'm guessing they will put lights back on once it is in the final location. As far as I know, all four rides will have beautiful lighting packages installed. Agreed. It's easier to install a ride and then install the lights than to install the ride with the lights. -

McDonald's vs a Mom 'n Pop shop on Main Street U.S.A. Which would you rather get a burger from? Why? -

Because Tony has never ever ever ever ever lied/misled/pulled our chains just to watch us squirm for a few pages. Until the park officially announces it one way or the other, I'm riding the 2018 boat. Would I love that boat to be the Titanic and 2017 be the iceberg? Of course! As long as I bring a life jacket that is. Or a door that could fit at least two people. -
^I wondered how long it would take that post of mine to show up on this thread. Darwin Award, here I come!
