Tmcdllr Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 I vote for the name "Inverted Coaster 1." Shouldn't it technically be "Inverted Coaster 2"? It should be "Remaining Inverted Coaster".
willthegolfer Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Screamscape also said that Goliath at SfGam would have a completely unique name.
singemfrc Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 I vote for the name "Inverted Coaster 1." Shouldn't it technically be "Inverted Coaster 2"? It should be "Remaining Inverted Coaster". I was referring to the fact that Flight Deck was the second B&M invert ever built..

I was referring to the fact that Flight Deck was the second B&M invert ever built.. True and I am referring to the fact that it is the only remaining inverted coaster at this park. Both of them are funny though, could you imagine if they really renamed it one of those? OMG that would be hilarious!
singemfrc Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 In all seriousness I would love if a park named their coaster "Inverted Coaster 01" or whatever would be appropriate for the type. My kind of humor. I wouldn't even really be opposed to it on Flight Deck, I just don't think the park would want the cost and hassle of changing all the theming.
Tmcdllr Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 You know if they really named it that I would be ok with it. It would be 'interesting' and different and humorous at the same time.
jray21 Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 I vote for the name Inverted Coaster as well! Much better than a football themed name.
rolercstrluvr Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 This sorta has to do with CGA, but it hasn't been announced yet. I saw this on the Cedar Fair FB page: "Keep on forgetting to tell you fans but some Cedar Fair parks will extend their operating season through November 2nd of this year. The only one I can recall doing this is Cedar Point but I would imagine Kings Island, Worlds of Fun, Dorney, Kings Dominion, Carowinds and California's Great America will also do the same."

I would love it if they extended their operations, but Nov 2nd isn't really a stretch when you take they're haunt hours into consideration. I'd love to see them do year round ops.

Probably the next biggest rumor was to extend the season till the end of November. But now that SFDK has gone for a year round park, why not CGA as well. Edited January 28, 2014 by rolercstrluvr
fpsphil Posted January 28, 2014 Posted January 28, 2014 There really is no reason why CGA can't do year round ops, and honestly they can't use weather as an excuse to limit ops to the summer months as even though Vallejo isn't that much further north, the weather is often much wetter and cooler in Vallejo than Santa Clara. Only obstacle I could see to year round operation is the businesses next door might complaint because of the "noise" generated 12 months a year instead of just a few.

rolercstrluvr Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 A lot more paint has been thrown onto Top Gun/Flight Deck, here's a pic to check it all out.
rcoaster10 Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Wow. Thats awesome. I think it looks way better than the black. Does anyone know if thats the final color for the supports?
rolercstrluvr Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 ^ To answer your question, the final color for the supports is supposed to be grey.
tarheel1231 Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 Wow. Thats awesome. I think it looks way better than the black. Does anyone know if thats the final color for the supports? What's wrong with the BLACK? just kidding. This is a great color scheme, though I do think red track on black supports would be cool.
Rollercoaster Rider Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 So if your a Cedar Fair park with a coaster named Flight Deck, You will most likely get repainted. Canada's Wonderlands' turn
rolercstrluvr Posted January 30, 2014 Posted January 30, 2014 I have a sneaky suspicion that it may be renamed to Afterburner, they maybe keeping it a secret.

gerstlaueringvar Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 The new clor looks amazing! Will the trains get a new color as well?
rolercstrluvr Posted February 2, 2014 Posted February 2, 2014 They may get new decals, im not sure about paint.
JonnyRCT3 Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Another picture of the re-paint. The red and white is a vast improvement. www.screamscape.com/html/california_s_great_america.htm
rolercstrluvr Posted February 3, 2014 Posted February 3, 2014 Here's the best pic of them all in my opinion.
