Insane Coaster Wars Season 3
CPSFMMCW replied to CPSFMMCW's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^ I think the reason they chose to feature some of those coasters was because they were already at a park for one of their coasters. If you noticed, a lot of the parks had 2 coasters from their park on the show. I could be wrong, but lets take la ronde for example. They were already there for Goliath, so they decided to include ednor also, even though its not a good ride. That was probably the same for Warner bros movie world in Spain. They had superman, so they included coaster express. Again, I might be wrong but it appears to me that that's how they did it. Tried to feature at least 2 coasters from one park. -
Valleyfair (VF) Discussion Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to the_rock401's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
^^ first off, at the rate Valleyfair is at, they shouldn't be removing anything! This park should only be gaining stuff at opposed to removing any coasters. -
I can check off NTAG off my list as of about a month ago...

^ Exactly the same for me

The "Pleasant/Unpleasant Surprise" Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to cfc's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Wild Eagle was a pretty big letdown UNTIL I went back to the park this past June and tried it out in the back seat. And man, I liked it a lot more there. Much more forceful. -
How are roller coasters built?
CPSFMMCW replied to Propeller Factory's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Eagle Scout here! Woo, Represent!! Unfortunately though, I never took the surveying merit badge, so I wish I could help by saying some of my own thoughts, but sadly I'm not much use in this area... -
After calling that number and listening to the direct mentions of Goliath and Medusa Steel Coaster, this definitely sound like an RMC woodie. Coaster enthusiasts will now run to fiesta Texas, as it would have two RMC's in one park! In all honesty, I hope it doesn't have any inversions. I hope it's an airtime packed woodie, as that is the major category that they are missing. But here's the reason why i'm a little skeptica about them getting an RMC. We already have the iron cyclone and iron colossus stuff going on. 3 projects for RMC in one year? To me, if this were to happen, then that would practically confirm to me that iron colossus won't open till 2016. That way you still get a woodie and a hybrid being built by Six Flags in one year. When you put it that way, it does make sense that they could have this project in the books for 2015.

Kings Dominion (KD) Discussion Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
MM was good the past couple of years and was one of my favs, but last year it was just bad. It went from one of the best to one of the worst. I won't really miss it. Plus that photo thing before you er in the maze was really irritating. Maze of Madness sounds cool. And I still miss the asylum. I liked that one... -
Kings Island (KI) Discussion Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
is the KD version better than the KI version of FoF? -
hmmm...they have something up their sleeve and its bothering me. In a way, I could see it being a brand new coaster since Iron Rattler was just a revamp really. They added Goliath in 2008 as their last new addition, which was actually a relocation. So a brand new coaster actually would make a lot of sense. The question is, what would fit in that area?

Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread
CPSFMMCW replied to robbalvey's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Cedar Point is making lots for guests to park inside the park. Much easier than walking from the parking lot outside of the park. This is a step-up for Cedar Point, and I hope other parks allow guests to park within the park. Lol. In all seriousness, I do think that a dark ride could still be possible. Those markings were in the area of the old pirate ship ride building, I believe. [EDIT] I stand corrected. The markings were by the pavilion, and that's a bit far from the pirate ship ride building. sorry, typo. Meant markings! -
^^^ Which one is motorama? I'll tell you this park is baffling me a bit. When I see a balloon, I look at that as the height of the ride. But with the teasers in rockville, that says dark ride to me. So they're contradicting each other. But I don't think it'll be a coaster, as looking at the park map, it doesn't look like theres really room in that area for a roller coaster of that height(Now keep in mind that I haven't actually ever been to this park, so I could be wrong about that). But if they're removing 2 rides, then that would clear up some space, but probably not enough for a coaster. The idea of that condor style ride like the one at Hersheypark seems like a good idea to me, but I'm just trying to figure out how that fits in with the realty thing they've been teasing.

I'm expecting the changes to mantis, but I believe it might've been Tony that tweeted out a photo of some markings in between Raptor and Blue Streak. Any ideas of what those could be for?
