Don't complain about an rmc, just be glad it does not hurt as much as a Vekoma SLC or Zamperla Volaire or any other rough wooden coaster. -

Don't you think they should take a brake for a year? They just got Gatekeeper, Rougarou, soft restrains on Maverick, Valravn. The Cedar Point fanboys are like, "Valravn was ok" a month later. "Lets get another coaster for next year " Why can't Cedar Point take a break, they already have one of the best coaster collections out there. Not all there rides need to be perfect. -

I think that cedar point will take a year and that we will see mean streak stuff happening in 2018. -

I agree completely. PS: Is this "G Force" of "This style of realism is getting old we only like people who directly copy Robbie" fame? Yes. Are we talking about ne now? -

For all you coaster people hoping for a giga. Just be glad you got a coaster at all. Especially a gci. Only a few years since banshee, you are lucky you will be getting one. Many other parks would wish for a gci since they don't get a coaster every 3-5 years. So don't complain about not getting a giga. Seriously you just got banshee, now you want a giga for 2017? Just be happy with what you have. KI already has a solid coaster lineup compared to other cedar fair parks. so just don't complain. -

And to further that point, Cedar Point continues and will always be the top dog in Cedar Fair's portfolio... both from a capital expenditure and income standpoint. Yes, Kings Island might have the higher attendance, but the true metric Cedar Fair bases their investments on is per cap revenue; of which Cedar Point brings in substantially more revenue per guest compared to any other park in the chain. Of Cedar Fair's 11 parks, Cedar Point alone contributes to 25% of Cedar Fair's annual earnings. cw has the higher attendance than both those parks. I think cp only brings in more profit than ki because of hotels. cw would have probably brought in more profit but the exchange rates make it lower. -

It just comes to the point, that the more trains you have, the more break runs you need for safety so that only one train is running the course at a time. Or the longer the break run needs to be at the end. -

It means that for the coasters that have many trains like ttd spend most of there time in the break run. -

What the hell are you talking about this time? Stacking is when all the trains on the course are stopped on the brake run. -

^Which also means waiting in the break run the whole time also know as stacking. -

I think a giga would be more practical for 2018, or 2019. It's a very big investment. I think a gci would be a better fit. -
