I love the park before I say anything else. Unfortunately, removing Cyclone's a bad idea, and I'd say you'd be better off using plot A.

Yeah.. RCT3 is not your game kid. Just like your previous park, this park is not good. At all. You have no scenery and your rides are awkwardly spread apart again. 3 drink stands next to each other wtf? That's a very unrealistic idea. And why is there palm trees two feet away from bushes? It's ridiculous. I'm sorry, but you should definitely ditch RCT3.

Yes the original first drop provided massive airtime. But it was re-profiled in 2001 and based on your profile you were 2 years old at that time. You must have been a big infant with an incredible memory. I'm sorry, I should've rephrased that. I meant to say the wooden version, the new drop I was referring to was Wicked Cyclones.

El Toro in the backseat gives some magnificent airtime. Had to push the lapbar further down during the ride. Cyclone at SFNE's old first drop had massive airtime, to the point you thought you were going to be thrown out. My first time with that I thought I was gonna fly over the turn over the first drop. Yankee Cannonball at Canobie Lake Park has some insane airtime. For going 35 MPH and 63 feet high, the airtime is unforgettable. 2nd small drop is great. Skyrush- first drop back seat is a horrifying drop.

I just realized you covered your water ride with a wooden roller coaster... this park just isn't working. The scenery is non-existent, the rides look unrealistic, and it's a bland storyline. I'd suggest you do a new park and start from scratch.

I'm heading there this year as well. The rides I'm looking most forward to are: 1. Blue Streak 2. Mean Streak 3. Magnum XL 200 4. Rougarou 5. GateKeeper 6. Corkscrew 7. Millennium Force 8. Maverick Do you have any ideas on how to accomplish these rides in a quick manner? (I can't afford FastLane)

Just read this entire thread. It's great. Please update!!

It seems like everything is soooo spread out too.

I'd recreate Cedar Point's Gemini and create inversions where the middle bumps are.

Scream looks phenomenal. The Blue and Orange has really grown on me.

Just a random question. Do you think It's a Small World will ever be removed from the park??? I've always wondered if it's years are numbered... every video I see there's always a few dolls missing, and they come back a year later.

I rode Wildcat at Hershey, and went instantly to Skyrush without any drinks all day (Skyrush was my 7th ride and the most intense by far...) I rode the back, then front. Never been so nauseous after a ride. Ever. I vomited violently in the bathroom below 10 minutes after. I got some water and I was riding again in no time.

I'm sure they'll keep it low enough that you should get significant airtime. It's probably an advertising point on the coaster. Wicked Cyclone is advertising theirs.

That Ghoster Coaster looked jerky and uncomfortable. Banshee looks fantastic. Making my first trip to the park this summer. How's the forces on this thing?

I think with a little magic by Cedar Fair when Canada's Wonderland finishes it's mighty refurb, I think Michigan's Adventure could get some love. A new flat or two would be soooooo nice. Hang Time would fit nicely at the park. Even though this park is neglected, at least it's maintained nicely.

This. Friggin this. SFI would be wicked excited to remove Calypso, as the old ride it is it must cost money to maintain. Instead, Cedar Point brings new life and theming to it. The Dodgems is a big building, and they already have two in the park, but Cedar Point knows guests like the rides, and they work it out. They always do. Cedar Fair does an amazing job of maintaining rides. Look at MiA, Shivering Timbers is greatly maintained, and they keep a traditional family feel at the park (according to many enthusiasts). Look at Six Flags with Riverside. Riverside in 2000 had such a great variety of rides with something for everyone. Since 2006, the parks dumped most of their flats, and only 2 rides remain from Riverside. The Carousel, and Thunderbolt. Cyclone was removed ( ), Skyway was removed, Catapult, Double Trouble, Time Warp, Nightwing, Rodeo, etc. Cedar Fair, great job working with Cedar Point. Keep it up!

Grayout are normal, and make the coaster fun. Grayouts are caused by the high G-Forces your experiencing. Your brain sends blood to more important functions of the body, rather than vision. STAY HYRDRATED IS RIGHT Sometimes, if you're not hydrated, your blackouts can make you nauseous. This happened to me on Skyrush, and I vomited after the ride. Just stay hydrated to prevent motion sickness as well.

I've heard Blue Streak's Airtime is insane. I think if they can get a good non-looping wooden coaster, followed by a looping one, their line up would be stellar and would blow MM out of the water. On second thought, why not compete with Magic Mountain with Gemini? I know it's unrealistic as it's already hybrid, but why not make an inversion on the current layout of Gemini? They can avoid the looping wooden coaster and save the spot for something more innovative (B&M 4D anyone?!) In coaster lineup, who currently has the edge in your mind - Cedar Point or Magic Mountain? You said it yourself, the Gemini idea is unrealistic. In saying that, the plot of land that's in discussion seems to be shaping up to be a B&M dive machine. I'd say Cedar Point, but SF fanboys would be screaming MM. Let's make those fanboys look at Cedar Point again. It's weird they'd show Outlaw Run for a dive machine though. I'm sorry, the first two hills on this look really ejectorful.

Considering the plot of land they've just removed (a nice chunk of it..) I don't think it's Iron Mean Streak. I think it's gonna be a custom RMC of some sort, or the B&M Dive Machine. I don't think they'd do so much to fool us as to spend tons of $ to move Calypso and retheme it, move the Bumper Cars, remove a Turnpike and Sir Rub A Dub Tubs. Seems a bit too much to see a "Mean Streak: Last Chance to Ride!" banner hanging in front of Mean Streak this season. This is why I like CF much better then SF. They make an effort to relocate flats and keep them. SF makes an effort to remove flats and throw them in the dump.

Thank God Calypso is being relocated rather than removed. It's a classic!

Ewe god no. I keep hearing it as lawl-o-coaster. Ewe. The theming seems to be somewhat nostalgic.
