For the last time. THIS is a parking lot coaster. Gatekeeper is NOT.

"If I'm gonna pay to see these things they better be real!!"

That would be BA! Too bad dueling coasters are now considered 'dangerous'.

What? But that's the point of this thread isn't it. Say what you want KI to get, and everything to the contrary is diversion or ridiculous. I believe this thread is about "Decoding" the possible 2014 ride. I assume that means predicting the new ride based on past evidence and solid facts(that we have so far). Not to be confused with 'LOLOLZ I WANT A DIVE MACHINE SI THAT'S WHAT THEY ARE GETTING LOLOLz'. And simply ending it there, with no solid reasoning other that its an 'incredible experience that KI deserves'. So lets think while we predict. That's been my point all along.

Guys, we are clearly getting this:

It has less track to cover, unlike Diamondback. They are fairly equal when it comes down to everything.

Just gonna leave this here. Because this is a great point.

Yes, and the reviews are those who are coaster enthusiasts. How many B&M inverts are there again? 30+? What would KI do with another generic "loopty loop" coaster, advertisement wise? Look, I'm not saying I don't want one. I'm just saying you can't just go, "This is the ride being put in because I like this type of coaster".

I think inverts are something of the past. The gimmic is old and the general public would just go "meh okay". You have to put yourself in a business prospective. You will find better answers.

No. Cedar Fair will do what ever it takes to make the new ride profitable for KI. If that means they break the hight of a 13 year old coaster, then thats what it means. And frankly, the GP won't give a darn.

Maybe worlds largest wing rider? Tallest and Fastest?

Literally every coaster has square and round footings. It's more of a question how far apart they are placed and how many rods stick out of them.

I see what you did there. Lame.

I love that advertisement! So cool.

Two.. Here's sort of a list of all the red rides in KI's currently Diamondback Firehawk Old Red schemes Flight Deck Racer Invertigo The Bat- gone Keyword: "ride", not roller coaster. Another thing I said said "in them(ride)". This would include: (Current) Diamodback Firehawk WindSeeker(seats/top) Drop Tower(on tower) Delirium Flight Deck(trains) Beast(trains) Back Lot (train) Train(has a red train) Not to mention the numerous amount of red in Planet Snoopy. My point? I'll take lime green over red, any day.

Honestly, a Raptor-like color scheme would be something different. How many rides at KI have red in them again?

Someone needs to take pictures

Anyone been by the B&M plant in Batavia lately? Or care to stop by?

Diamondback ^ HTCO, avoiding one word posts.

You mean like this? (Diamondback Construction 2008)

Someone had a link earlier in the year to logo and name patents that have been bought by Cedar Fair. Maybe someone can find this link?

That was rude.... He is right though..... Hoping for a wing rider or giga.

That's what I'm saying. Remember. This time last year, space spiral and that other ride were testing, getting ready for opening day. What stands in its place now?

Yes, this happened a while ago. Unfortunately, I've heard that if you have ridden it before it doesn't enhance the ride experience. Pointless? Perhaps. But great idea for spending almost no money in order to advertise the park/coaster.

I second that. But, thats exactly what happened with the whole Diamondback thing in 2008.
