steel Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 CP said that someone on the Facebook page was "exactly right." The only two things I saw that were at all plausible were the idea about announcement times (which is probably right) and somebody pointing out that KD has one B&M, Carowinds has 2 (not counting the new one) and CP would have three if they got a B&M next year. But it's probably about the announcements.
GriffonFan09 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 So if we are right about the announcements then we won't hear of one til late August? Arg... Well the games they play can be fun but I like it when someone leaks out all the plans then when they make the official release we know most of whats going to happen.
coolcalicoaster Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 ^ Because people like you get so upset about it. I think it's a great game. lol I am in no way upset about anything. I just prefer not to get so involved with wild theories and speculation. It also gets annoying hearing the same old aquatrax and 500ft jokes that 13 yr olds and you repeat over and over. It can ruin a thread, that for the most part, is rather exciting and interesting. Just my opinion.
Jerrykoala2112 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 KD has one B&M, Carowinds has 2 (not counting the new one) and CP would have three if they got a B&M next year. Why would you include the new CP B&M and not include the new Carowinds B&M? That didn't sounds true to me
steel Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I know, that was my thinking as well. But I don't know. It could be that they didn't want to reveal that Carowinds is getting a B&M. But like I said, it's not likely, lol.
slither37 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 Pretty cool thing, well at least for my uncle, Mike Bellamy. My uncle was at CP yesterday. He was wanting to win the ride on MF with Jeff Gordon, turns out he won the grand prize, race tickets, pit passes and all the extras on Sunday. Got to meet Gordon yesterday and will meet him on Sunday again. He will be wearing a Coastermania T-shirt on Sunday, look for him on stage during the pre-race ceremonies. I know this if off topic, but thought it was pretty cool. I am sure he will show up on a video or pics on CP website or Youtube channel.
coastermoosh Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 FYI, the race-car themed kiddie whips at Knotts & CP have Jeff Gordon numbered cars.

I've always wanted to meet him in person, heck riding MF with him would have been freakin awesome! Cool to hear he won the grand prize.
slither37 Posted August 14, 2009 Posted August 14, 2009 I know, I am a Gordon fan as well. Very jealous, but happy for him. He will be talking up CP if he is on TV.
coasterfan21 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 KD=1 CW=2 CP=3 Thats it the answer lies with Chris Paul aka CP3 Ive got it if you take his: Height (6ft) X Weight (175) / Years Pro (4) + Number (3) = 265.5 The new coaster is gonna be 265.5ft tall!!!!!!!
dammie16@vt.edu Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Hey I just got back from Soak City and thought I would share some news. A man was taken out on a stretcher after, what I assume, to be falling getting on the large raft slide. I was on line for another slide and we heard the whistles and saw 13-16 lifeguards running up the tower. I did not ask too many questions because it wasn't really my business but I did see the guy get carried out on a stretcher with a neck brace on and a breathing assistant. I hope he is ok!
DiSab Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^^By God, I think you got it! I dunno how we could've missed that.
Y2J2003Y2J Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 KD=1 CW=2 CP=3 Thats it the answer lies with Chris Paul aka CP3 Ive got it if you take his: Height (6ft) X Weight (175) / Years Pro (4) + Number (3) = 265.5 The new coaster is gonna be 265.5ft tall!!!!!!! That would rule out a B&M then since they don't build over 230 ft.
DiSab Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^I think B&M has been ruled out since the get-go. I don't remember hearing or reading anything at all that would tie B&M in with CP 2010.
Chris Benvenuto Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^ You have an anagram program? http://wordsmith.org/anagram/ I ran Whyte Lightning through and got this: Let Gig Hint Why Plus Wetting Highly Plus (again) Eh Tightly Wing Just passing this by, may mean nothing, but I find it interesting...
coasterfan21 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^^By God, I think you got it! I dunno how we could've missed that. It came to me in a dream lol
Flyingcoasterfreak Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 There will be no new ride for CP in 2010. They are all messing with your heads!!
coasterfan21 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 There will be no new ride for CP in 2010. They are all messing with your heads!! Maybe yes, maybe no, its still fun to speculate.
Jerrykoala2112 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Im sure their will atleast be a flat ride addition. Has CP ever missed out on a year without adding a ride besides 40 years ago?
Homeboy23 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^ Did they add something this year? I don't remember.
Jerrykoala2112 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^I think they added those weird fountains on the midway alot with some starlight show. I think.
CoasterCard Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 ^ I would consider that a year they missed out on adding a new ride.
Jerrykoala2112 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 OOOh, you're right. But why would they miss 2 years?
coasterfan21 Posted August 15, 2009 Posted August 15, 2009 Cedar Point Facebook: "Definitely NOT taking the Beemer out for a spin today. Or next year for that matter." More messing with us.
