boldikus Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Yeah I'm definitely pushing my return to KD back to next year. Can't wait for this thing, especially after finally riding Wicked Cyclone. Like I said after that - "What a time to be alive!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoasterAuditor Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 I still can't believe this is really happening. An RMC and Intimidator 305 in the same park... what a world.  Imagine how this feels for somebody who lives 40 minutes north of Kings Dominion  Also hello all, I've lurked on this forum for probably 5+ years and finally decided to start posting here. I've noticed that this thread seems to be one of the craziest threads on the forum. Makes me wonder if I live near the craziest coaster enthusiasts out there.

Â Imagine how this feels for somebody who lives 40 minutes north of Kings Dominion I'm kinda jealous. I used to live 40 minutes north of Dominator, until she moved to KD.

CoasterAuditor Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 To be fair you do live an hour west of Cedar Point featuring Maverick, RMC Mean Streak (soon), Millennium Force, 4 decent B&Ms, TTD, and Magnum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenbowl Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Topped out! Â What do you guys think the new height is? The old height was 83'. This looks over 100' at least Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CP Maverick Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Maybe 111'... if that whole "28" tweet is the increase in height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The TPR Care Bear Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I think Kings Dominion could have one of the best top 3s out of any park with Intimidator, Iron Hurler, and Volcano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CP Maverick Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Current Kings Dominion Teasers  6/20: 816. Just remember... things aren't always what they seem.  6/27: 20. BE⊥TER than 4.  7/4: 3. BE⊥TER than none.  7/11: 28. Makes it BE⊥TER.  7/18: The force RA⊥TLED the windows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VACoasterdude Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 I have made tentative arrangements to be off work and head to KD on 8/16 for the announcement (once confirmed). If, "Just remember...things aren't always what they seem." is for real and the announcement is about upcoming changes for Haunt and not the new and improved Hurler... That'll be 2 years in a row KD's PR has fooled me with their announcement BS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgtlover Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 28. Makes it BE⊥TER ---turns ?  Pretty sure the ride is 28 feet taller... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill_s Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 The force rattled the windows .. Shock Wave? Now I'm really confused. Plus those teasers hurt my eyes, need to turn them any other color.  28 is also the number of seats on each train previously. Don't know why they'd tease something staying the same, although it would be better than some alternatives. Looks at least 20' taller to me, maybe even 28 but no more for sure. It could also be the height differential, as it's also going closer to the ground.  Topped out!  What do you guys think the new height is? The old height was 83'. This looks over 100' at least  It also looks like the lift ends earlier horizontally, not over the original crest. There's also been a big hole at the original crest, maybe just to remove the chain sprocket and greasy wood, maybe not. I'm wondering about a surprise here, maybe even a pre-drop inversion or dip.

I'm wondering about a surprise here, maybe even a pre-drop inversion or dip.  My guess is a dip and turn around before a dive-over drop.  One thing that I can predict based on how low to the ground this ride is getting is that the airtime will be almost violent. There seems to be so much height differential in the hills that have new wood on them. I'm predicting that this one will be kind of an Iron Rattler Jr, where it's relentless in bouncing whipping you around, plus many drops. Mean Streak is more like an over-sized Wicked Cyclone.
