Cedar Point (CP) Discussion Thread

I never realized that was during Halloweekends. Jesus by day, dismembered bodies and severed heads by night. Sounds like a good time.

I was pleasantly surprised by how few people took out their cell phones on the rides at CP last week. But I guess I only have Magic Mountain to compare it to, so pretty much anything looks better than 75% of the train with their phones out on Twisted Colossus at any given moment.

This is new. (Via CoasterKings908)

Lol, if all of these little things are just Tony getting everyone worked up again, I truly think this time around an angry mob of enthusiasts will burn Mean Streak to the ground.

[coasterbill]

Webcam is on Mean Streak. He's definitely screwing with you people.

 

Behold. Bask in the greatness.

[bluestreak]

^ Yep, the greatness of Woodstock Express.

I honestly think that all of the markers on the supports and the stakes in the ground are all just a red herring. I mean, Cedar Point just added Valravn this year, don't you think they will focus more outside of Ohio next year (other than Kings Island's 2017 project)? I wouldn't be surprised if all those stakes around Mean Streak are gone by the end of the season. I guess its more of Tony Clark messing with us, haha.

 

The most I think will happen to Mean Streak sometime in the future is a major GCI retrack, considering their relationship with Cedar Fair recently. However, I still wouldn't completely knock an RMC transformation off the table. Anything is possible.

[madmax]

Does RMC have anything for 2017? I haven't heard any rumors so far.

A 2015 interview with Alan Schilke said they have four (?) projects in '17.

[Nwstone]

Wow that's a lot

[thepoint4life23]

I don't think Tony would paint that many dots. Something will happen with it but when I don't see it next year. Drop slide is coming to the water park. Unless all the wood that kings island has been talking about is on the way to the point. Joking. as for the rocks that's something Tony would do.

As for phones me and my wife agree to not take phones, Cedar point is are place to get away. I may take it in for an hour to take pictures or play the new game but most of the time its in the car.

Take it for what's it's worth, but one project I heard is for Kennywood. Another was CP, but for 2018 opening. Not sure how reliable the info is though.

If Kennywood built anything RMC I would drop out of school and relocate to West Mifflin.

I second this.

[DoinItForTheFame]

Just checked out the webcams and OMG!! Someone alert the press. Windseeker is actually running!!

[bluestreak]

^ It's actually been running pretty consistently this year.

I'm hoping it stays that way!! I'm hoping to get a chance to ride it this weekend. I've missed out on it during all of my previous visits to the park.

Just saw a picture from today showing off a pattern of rocks spelling out "MEAN STREAK 1991".

 

Looks like it truly is on its last leg.

Look back two pages.

That's quite the leap to make based on a few rocks.

[ytterbiumanalyst]

Obviously they're 25th anniversary rocks. Because we all know how Cedar Point does special things for anniversaries.

[prozach626]

This is confirmation that RMC'd Mean Streak will be renamed Stone Streak. I also counted exactly 2017 rocks in the entire photo.

[Nrthwnd]

Or that it'll be...stoned to death?

 

 

Just a guess.

 

Or that it'll be stoned....in 2017?

 

(Where did that come from?)

What interview was this? I know they had 4 projects this year but i don't remember Alan ever saying anything about 2017 anywhere.
