I hear there may be a fourth opening in the USA next year.
-
The clue mentions it's a USA project. GCI has built 12 coasters in the USA, of which only one operates with a single train: Beech Bend's Kentucky Rumbler.
-
Don't (Del Grosso's) already have a coaster rotting away in their posession?
Revolution will never be rebuilt. I expect the ride'll be sold for scrap.
-
Del Grosso's? It's been long-rumored that the park has wanted to add a wood coaster to it's ride roster.
-
Well only 4 parks in the chain have announced new attractions so far,they still have Dorney,WOF,VF,MIA & KD left to go.
Valleyfair, Dorney, and Worlds of Fun have already announced their new-for-2011 news: Planet Snoopy.
-
methinks that Xcelerator is gonna finally get repainted in this time. We can only hope so...
Repainting of Xcelerator has been in progress for a few weeks already. You can find pics from the last few weeks at Westcoaster and Screamscape.
-
Wow I did not see that comming. To be honest I was still expecting a GCI.
You didn't see this coming? Even with the recent news of Funtime's lawsuit?
A blind man couldn've seen this coming, LOL!
-
I suspect that the 301 total height includes the "K" at the top and that riders will be in the 250-275' range (still pretty high). Much like riders on Supreme Scream don't reach that ride's total height (355 feet, if I recall correctly) as the triangular structure at the top of it's tower is included in the total ride height.
-
Take a closer look. The reason there are a few rows of test dummies missing is that it appears the seats in those rows are missing. I'm pretty sure I spotted two rows (second row and another about 3/4 of the way back) without any seats.

Have Coneys Island Opening Days, or is it open the hole year? I´m in New York mid May 2011, and first want to eat at Nathans and want to visit Coney Island / Lunar Park
What is a "hole year"? Does it have 365 daze and 52 weaks?
-
When is the non-Facebook announcement?
-
You know what they say: you don't stop riding because you get old; you get old when you stop riding
-
Six Flags is expected to officially unveil the new coaster in the spring of 2010.
Typos are funny!
-
Terminator wasn't open because they couldn't get the audio to work, LOL.
-
Rack = nice set of boobs.
Pinion - Spanish for "pine nut."
Can't say I know any ride that uses both
-
Not to mention the new ride for 2011 is one of the worst-kept secrets ever. Why does anyone need a formal announcement when the answer is all over the 'net?
-
Where did you get 75? The press release clearly says 57:
The addition of the new attractions brings the Dorney Park & Wildwater Kingdom experience to an incredible fifty-seven rides
-
Is anyone over the age of 12 a Miley fan?
-
But he's technically right: it was also the name of an Arrow looper (just not at SFGAdv).
-
There is no news about a Colossus renovation. At this point it's all just rumor and conjecture (much like the other 1,000+ pages in this thread, lol).
-
I agree with you. Sure, it would be interesting, but there would be a bit of whiplash involved with it. While I don't think it needs a completely brand new launch system, I do think they can remake the LIMs so that they're more power effecient but are even more powerful.
Just an FYI, Superman The Escape doesn't use LIM technology for the launch, it uses LSMs.
-
Hey everybody. I've heard a few reports from late july claiming Tatsu was down. Is it still? Im visiting, and would really like to know. Thanks!
Really? You actually believed that?
^ Didn't really see it that close up to tell. But if you want to try and zoom in on that pic I took, be my guest.The train in your photo is in the normal (i.e. facing forward) position.
-
Before they add a fourth woodie at Canada's Wonderland how about they hire GCI to do some much-needed track work on the three they already operate?
-
I can't think of any launched coaster that launches backwards from a sitting position.
Mummy.

LOL Robb. Not trying to be cool (I'd fail at it anyway). There seems to be a lot of Eurfighter love here, thought some would find the potential news of more a good thing. I haven't ridden one yet but they sure look fun!
Anyway I went back to edit my post for clarity as I don't have any inside info. Just reiterating what I've read on other sites. Sorry it sounded so "donkey" lol.
