I would love a building with columns and then a screen or clock on top.

I agree. It would look cooler in the back with all that wood around to balance it out. However it would still stick out in the skyline if tall enough.

I am not so sure that is a valid reason for not having a "front gate coaster" at KD. The LA times interview, with Matt Ouimet, on Cedar Fair's coaster legacy, (past, present, and future), points to a reason that holds more water than the family friendly logic. Matt alluded to the fact that some parks in the chain would not see a "front gate coaster" because of the nice, grand promenades like those at Kings Island and Canada's Wonderland. Given that Kings Dominion's entrance is almost a clone of Kings Island, I don't think we will see a gate coaster for that reason either. But I definitely wouldn't be surprised to see a front entrance building though.

I think land is going to be cleared in the back of the park around Hurler and Grizzly. A front gate coaster doesn't go with Kings Dominion's family friendly mantra.

So is Kingda Ka getting new trains?

I think during Halloween Haunt some of the Zombie High maze scare-actors use it for a break area. Other than that, I don't think the park has used that structure for anything. I never understood why they did not dismantle it when they removed Hypersonic XLC. Plus, the only time you can see the old station up close is when you are standing in line for the Club Blood maze during Haunt. I always thought the west end of Candy Apple Grove felt like an "unfinished dead-end /no man's land" after Hypersonic was removed. The placement of the Windseeker did help give it a focal point; but, there still is that "dead-end" gap between it and the Jukebox Diner. I felt the old station should have been removed and the Haunt building for Zombie High placed further back it its place. That way at least another flat ride could have been placed where Zombie High is now, to round off the open area. I'm just wondering if it could be used for a new coaster. It could interact with Grizzly and Hurler in very cool ways.

Anyone know if the hypersonic xlc station is being used?

Take a look at how his football team has done under his ownership. It's very apparent it's his fault.

Total Mayhem is a great coaster in an overall horrible year for Six Flags announcements. I mean seriously: Besides this and The Joker everything is a clone or a re-theme. FOUR SUPER LOOPS!!!! THREE NAMED FIREBALL!!!!

Stupid decision by Six Flags to give Discovery Kingdom's Roar the RMC treatment instead of America's. Discovery Kingdom's Roar is way smoother and in better shape. Plus America needs a great coaster more. They didn't even bother to put the Millennium Flyer trains on America's Roar. Want to know who to blame for the abandonment of Six Flags America? A greedy dirtbag by the name of Daniel Snyder. This clown ruined a perfectly good park and is now running the worst sports team in the entire world: The Washington R*dsk*ns.

"It's a forceless B&M". Yup, pretty much. "1. After months of rumors and speculation, the ride is announced. The ride is immediately hit with negative views because it didn't live up to the hype coasterboy2194210 had set when he heard from his friend's uncle that it was going to be a 900 foot prototype."

So why didn't they go with the larger model?

I'd rather wait for B&M to make a 4D coaster.

I meant that Six Flags passing on these "super loops" as coasters is ridiculous.

I want to see a Suicide Squad themed coaster.

I305's restraints are awesome. Would love to see KK get them.

Still a better Joker that Jared Leto.

SFNE will still have 11 coasters in 2016. SMH Six Flags.

And the best part? Sh*twave is gone!

This one is going to be much bigger than the one at SFFT with higher capacity. It would almost be like having X2.

Is anyone still upset over the fact that SFGAdv is getting a free spin?

And it's not like B&M can't make anything intense. Fury 325, Banshee, and Thunderbird, while not on an Intamin or Batman level, are still very thrilling rides. Crossing my fingers for a launched wingrider in the woods.

That's why I've been suggesting something like Thunderbird.

Yeah, then too. KD is about even since they also received two flat rides and an observation tower from them.

Appearantly Pat Jones said that they are looking at Intamin. Possible comeback? I mean the park has worked with them more times than any other park besides Cedar Point.
