I think it will be some sort of grandfather law, we already have the rides under that name, so they can't have us change them. Scooby isn't going anywhere don't worry.

Nah iam sure they will find a way to keep scooby! i mean Scooby has always been Popular! and Scooby brings in the $$$ the haunted castle should be there until two-thousand twelve! unless they make some of hbland themed to scooby!

They'll stay the same they wont be able to use it anymopre after the tome pki loses the contract.

iam sure Pki will renew the contract didnt they have to renew it to build the haunted castle?

No they didn't. Trust me PKI has a way to get around contracts. There is no way that they would have built Scooby without getting the clearence for 10 years.

Its February 2017, and there sits an empty theater, which I hope will be used once again someday.

Working there in '96, not a big Nascar guy but always dug that Days of Thunder ride (hence the profile image).  And rarely a line IIRC. 

I was just thinking about this ride today. If Days of Thunder still operated at Kings Island, would it still be a popular ride or would it be more like, "meh".? Maybe they wouldn't call it days of thunder anymore, but they could call it Nascar - the ride or something more clever than that.

I would call Days of Thunder seriously outdated, but then again Captain EO at Epcot lasted forever and it still got some iota of crowds in its theater.

Parts of Days of Thunder's video were dated even when it started. I do wish there was still a motion ride in there tho. 

Well, the entire ride film was lifted from the movie. 

Just sayin'.  

Well what if they used today's NASCARS and created their own theme with it? I know Cedar Fair isn't that good with theme, but they could try it anyway.

A random thing I remember from this ride was that during DOT (it may have changed during other incarnations), the seat cushion was velcrod on to the seat, so after each ride, you could peel it off and find a small pile of loose change.  The 16 year old me love "making money" by checking this after each ride.

Think they would ever flip it to something like the Plant v. Zombies they did at Carowinds?

It would be nice, although Plants Vs. Zombies isn't real amazing. I've done it twice. They almost have too many players per screen, you really can't track where you are aiming....where you've hit. 

It's a great addition for families though. 

I don't see anything major entering ActionFX theater for a while though. I think they'd have to reroute the path to get there....going around WindSeeker is quite the pain in the butt, especially with more than a few people. I know when I went to Haunt a couple of years ago, I wanted to punch several people who just weren't walking fast enough or just kind of standing around in groups in that area.
