Superbatboy Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 KD is gigantic, they own more land than CP, Carowinds, and KI...they will never run out of room. The only bigger park I can think of is Great Adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianparkfan Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Don't get me wrong, I still love me a good Frisbee ride, but you can't deny that the coaster drought bell just tolled for a sixth time. This is the longest time in Kings Dominion history between coaster additions (although the Intimidator was huge, it's stil a pretty darn long time for a park of its size). Source: Kings Island - Diamondback (2009) - $26M, Banshee (2014) - $24M Carowinds - Intimidator (2010) - $23M, Fury 325 (2015) - $30M Kings Dominion - Intimidator 305 (2010) - $30M, TBA (2017+) - $??M #zizcanwait2017 Is there a strong chance of us getting a coaster in 2017? #ZizCW #OhCanada Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superbatboy Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 The more I think about it, the more a wing coaster seems redundant at KD with Dominator there. Why can't Cedar Fair install a major coaster other than a B&M?? A Mack bluefire type ride, an RMC conversion of Hurler, something from S&S or Gerstlauer...something...ANYTHING!!!

Would love to see a Mack launcher like Helix, but a B&M wing rider seems the most likely. Still praying for an RMC though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wing coasters are nothing like floorless coasters. Sitting coasters are the only thing similar to floorless coasters in the B&M portfolio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderbird was in fact awesome! I would love a Fury 325 type layout with the wingrider. It would be the closest we get to having a Maverick besides I305.

thewesker Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Listen, unless Kings Dominion gets a 500 foot tall INTAMIN coaster (INTAMIN IS VERY IMPORTANT) with 15 inversions that breaks 100 mph, they are literally going to go out of business tomorrow. CEDAR FAIR DOES NOT UNDERSTAND HOW URGENT THIS IS!!!! Why does their precious "Cedar Point" get all of the roller coasters??? This is totally UNFAIR!!
