Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

I saw that too.

 

Anyway, since this hasn't made it over here yet...

 

 

From TPR's Instagram page. I suggest you don't read the comments.

I love the internet...

Any one know what the circle things are on the side of the beams. I not sure if i have seen them on other RMC before.

That lift is gonna be steep!

I've never had any clue as to what the circular shape on the sides of the ledgers are for but I do know that those same kind have been used on all of the RMC coasters going back to the start with New Texas Giant.

^^Eh, I'm not entirely sure it'll be launched. Dollywood beat CP to the punch with LR, and we've seen how that turned out. So, if they do decide to launch it, it will be different, but I think CP will go for efficiency, but still with records. Random idea, but what about a beyond-vertical drop? On a wooden coaster?

Not with those prelift hops it won't.

With Maverick right next door?? Nah, seems to redundant.

 

(At least that's what everyone will say)

If Cedar Point wanted it, RMC would design it.

I'm sure they would. But a launch would need the capability of rolling back. You'll see that with any rolling/inclined launch, there's a flat section (block section) at the base of the launch where the train can sit if rolled back (Look at Lightning Rod). This doesn't have that. If it was launched, I'm positive that little hop wouldn't be there.

That's a great idea for when they're building a wooden coaster!

[MidwestThemeParks]

On a wooden coaster?

 

It won't be a wooden coaster, but I think a beyond vertical drop would be the first for a hybrid.

Good point. However, if CP would get another launched coaster would they get the record for most launched coasters at one park (they currently have three, Maverick, TTD, and Wicked Twister). Or do they already have that record?

Kings Dominion has 3, but had 4 at one time.

That's for the catwalks

[storms555]

I think a beyond virtual drop on a wooden coaster would be so cool! Imagine if it was sort of like a wood version of the Mavrick. But no matter what Im very psyched about this coaster! RMC is awesome.

[Mossed]

It isn't a wooden coaster.

 

and the lift is already taller than Maverick.

[RaceBoarder]

Y'all have it wrong... They are actually reversing the layout! That little bump is an airtime hill just before you hit the brakes and return to the station! That is just the last of 100s of thrills with this ride

Forget the 200 ft. inclined launch, those vertical loops are just

 

Actually that "artwork" is fake because it is made of wood and it would fall straight down in the loop!

Is this RCT3? Also, no offense what so ever, but is that real? Because - AGAIN NO OFFENSE INTENDED - it looks like someone just created some random stuff and passed it off as real.

For the sake of humanity I really hope you are trying to troll. If not humanity is screwed more so than I thought.
