Devious Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Meh, just another reason for me to go to kennywood instead, 40$ for a mediocre expirience with 3 reridable coasters (MF-Raptor-Maverick) or like $20 for the awesomeness of phantoms revenge and an amazing park expirience, not to mention KW is a shorter drive for me, so less wasted money on gas GG CP, you f*** up again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffon Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 Not sure if this has been mentioned, but I stumbled upon the first picture I've seen of Dominator being dismantled via geaugalaketoday While I understand the disappointment of GL fans, the thought of this many coaster seats coming to Kings Dominion all in the same year is very exciting. That's more seats than their last 3 coasters COMBINED, dating back to 2001. Of course we'll have to wait and see if it ends up being official, but it's pretty clear now that it should end up in someones backyard next year. greatness from gltoday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterdude5 Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Ouch... Isn't this the only major B&M to be dismantled? (Besides the cursed Batman clone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niiicolaaah Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Thanks for the pictures. It is SO WEIRD to see something I rode 2 months ago being dismantled!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eltorobaby Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Yea, i think so. Although i usually don't pay much attention to history of coasters/construction so, there may've been others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Nicky Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 Yep, this is the only one of two BEEMERS to be relocated. But both of the parks they were both in closed, other wise they would still be in their first parks. Some park in Japan and Geauga Lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swoosh Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 ^yes but the BTR clone has been in two parks that have closed whereas Dominatrix has only been in one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterfan1986 Posted October 2, 2007 Share Posted October 2, 2007 I wonder if Worlds Of Fun will be getting anything from GL. Any type of ride at all, for me, would be great. I would like to see Worlds Of Fun maybe get Time Warp. I think it would be good since they removed Omegatron, it would be like the updated version! I also know this is a big dream, but Viking Voyager should be replaced by GL log flume, VV is so dang rough now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robbalvey Posted October 15, 2007 Author Share Posted October 15, 2007 Has anyone heard anything about a fire in Dominator station? I saw this posted to another newsgroup earlier today: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DATman Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 It's Cedar Fair wishing they were the ones who got to dismantle Psyclone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vffreak07 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I think that's just Cedar Fair leaving a Sh*t stain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axman Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 The burned station looks cool. SF should have done this when they built Dominator to add to the theming (or lack there of). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticky Nicky Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 I heard about the fire a couple days ago, but I thought it was in the actual station and not on top of it (Where the old "Bruce Wanye Enterprises" or something was when it was still SF).

Moose Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 For a second I thought the fire was their way of quickly tearing down the building, but since they put the fire out, I guess it really was an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 (Where the old "Bruce Wanye Enterprises" or something was when it was still SF). Cedar Fair paved over the lettering. The reason why that was removed was due to CF not owning the rights to use Batman or other DC comics on theme park attractions. From those GLT pictures, the lack of Dominator's loop and cobra roll already make the park skyline feel empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downunder Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 If Cedar Fair is going to burn something to the ground, I'm thinking of a coaster taking up space a bit west of Geauga Lake. I hear they are thinking of renaming Dominator, maybe the Virginians aren't up for a S & M themed ride, maybe they can call it "Deliverance" with Banjo's playing in the load station. Any people from Virginia, I'm only being tongue in cheek. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villain wouldn't burn particlarly well, it has a steel structure. Try your bonfire idea out on Mean Streak instead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axman Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 ^ That's what he was getting at. He said a bit west of Geauga Lake, not a bit west of Dominator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
