KDCOASTERFAN Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I guess I'll jump on the bandwagon and make a prediction. I think whatever they are doing is not for 2011...I could be wrong, but I am seeing the time frame in which they have to build/test/etc and maybe they could pull something off, but I am sure whatever it is wouldn't be anywhere near is "big" as they are promoting. Perhaps a new theater/show/ etc? If it is indeed for 2012 as I am taking a wild guess on or maybe LATE 2011 and IF it's a coaster, could anyone see a B&M Dive Coaster? Again, this is a VERY far off speculation so please don't think I am crazy...just going for the long shot...maybe if it's late 2011 it would be something to make up for the possible removal of SOB? The Busch parks have an exclusive contract for a few more years on the DM so it wouldn't be that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCW_Nut Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Ahhh okay...didn't know that was still going. I am guessing that its only North American then since other parks overseas have built Dive Coasters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see CF really going for the DM's anyway as the layouts are very limited in what can be done due in part to the width of the trains.....notice the lack of traditional loops on almost all of the DM's that have currently been built?

downunder Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Perhaps a nice invert from the Bay Area could be on its way over!?! That sounds quite logical, if memory serves me right, KI doesn't have a full-circuit invert (not counting suspended), not even a crummy SLC. Given the lead time for Texas Giant's rehab and that the winter in Ohio would probably slow down work compared to the climate in Dallas, I doubt SOB could be Rocky Mountained by Season 2012. I'll happily implement the next best option for SOB personally: KI just need to give me petrol, a match, and indemnity from prosecution and civil liability.

DarkStitch626 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 The worlds largest free range Canadian Goose hunting grounds! Or goose poop land fill. On another note, to the one who said its behind The Racer. Yes they had a teaser showing off blue prints with "The Racer" on it. *Prays for SOB as its a favorite woodie of mine* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geauga Dog Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 B&M Wing Rider. It would be the first in America and the first of its kind on the East Coast (seating style that is). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big-M Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 B&M Wing Rider. It would be the first in America and the first of its kind on the East Coast (seating style that is). If Cedar Fair was going for a first, it would be going to a park about four hours to the north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intimidator305 Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 All this hype is going to lead into something like the return of the ANTIQUE CARS which will travel through the woods! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geauga Dog Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I would be fine with the antique cars coming back. KI needs more family flats and non-coaster rides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI Kidd Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I think the excavation and tree removal behind Racer point to something not dealing with Action Theater. Guess we will find out Friday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenbowl Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Is it time to make some predictions? For the record, my prediction is: A new dinosaur-themed land with the flagship attraction being a B&M Floorless Coaster called T-Rex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
