We do really need a flat ride. I do still think that IJST should have gone there with antique cars staying.

2Mph faster and a 79 degree drop?!?!?!? Maybe if this was 15 years ago, it would be more impressive, but now, it isnt.

Oldest couple EVER to ride Slingshot.
Reminds me of my first ever ride of SOB in 2003. I was all nervous, and in the line, right ahead of me was two people at least 70. Both kept commenting on how this was their 5th ride, and how excited they were. I wasnt scared anymore. The lady had to be helped out of the train (By her husband), but she was saying how great of a ride it was, and that she loved every ride. One of the ride ops was amazed and kept asking her if she was okay

MJ theme park
Thats....Interesting. Now where are they going to get the money for a 1billion dollar park, and why, oh why would they build it in Gary Indiana? (Yeah I know, he was born and raised there, but from a tourist standpoint....)

Kings Island's 5@5 Q&A Thread
Q: Austin Benton - How do they decide what should be added to the park each year, line in 2009 when Diamondback was added? A: Information obtained through guest surveys taken in the park plays a role in many of those decisions. New concepts for rides and attractions are always being presented, too. --------------------------- Q: Bruce E Knolle - Will The Racer ever go backwards again? A: In the spring of 1982, due to the decision to shut down The Bat for the season, the park needed to come up with something new and unique for visitors. The park's marketing director, Tom Nowlin, suggested turning around one side of The Racer. It wasn't supposed to be for the long term, just something to get the park through Memorial Day Weekend. But the backwards side was immensely popular, and the park decided to keep it that way for the remainder the season. Something done as a gimmick ended up lasting 26 years. Now that the ride is back to operating the way it was intended to, I wouldn't envision it going backwards again. Speaking of backwards, can you imagine riding Diamondback backwards? --------------------------- Q: Nicholas Himes - What's the possibility of that The Beast could get the new timberliner trains in the near future? A: After 30 years of annually being ranked as one of the best wooden roller coasters in the world, if it ain't broke why fix it? --------------------------- Q: Tyler Nusky - Will the new Pretzel stand replace an exisiting stand? A: The Pretzel Shop will be located on International Street, where the BBQ stand was last year. You will be able to watch your pretzel being made by hand. --------------------------- Q: Brett Fehr - Will the Planet Snoopy names be the same as the other Cedar Fair parks or will we see a bit of variety? A: The answer to that question will be unveiled soon. Very soon! --------------------------- My question got answered, yay

The Son of Beast Discussion Thread
Just to add my two cents: If they decide to scrap Son of Beast, I will be SOBbing. Dbfan, who just thought of that...

A Tomb for the Crypt?
The building is too small for mystery mine.I think what would be good would be a log flume similar to the one at Universal Orlando. With the drop coming out near the top.

You might be a KI addict if you...
People are talling about the movie topgun and you can't stop thinking about the ride

2011 what should KI get
Doubt thats ours. That hill that coaster goes up is fairly large. SOB has terrain, but not that much of a difference. I think a lauched LIM through the woods would be great with fast turns and maybe a short straight up straight down feature,
