Unless I'm missing something (Which I must be), CW getting a Beemer similar to DB one year later does not a pattern make.

You've got your timeframe/parks wrong. I was not referring to Intimidator at Carowinds.

CW... Canada's Wonderland... got Behemoth... a B&M Hyper... one year earlier than KI got Diamondback.

Behemoth opened on 5/4/2008

Diamondback opened on 4/18/2009

Wonderland has survey stakes popping up throughout the park already this season. That tells me a larger project is being planned for next season. Wonderland currently has the highest attendance of any of the former KECO/Paramount parks, so successful additions will likely be rolled out to other parks... specifically KI.

So something big is to come?

Think big...no...

REALLY BIG.

If the rumors that the CW is getting an Inverted Beemer to replace their Arrow Suspender are true for 2011, then perhaps we may get an Invert similar to the CW's for 2012 to replace our Suspender.

That sounds absolutely incredible, up until the "Replace our suspended" part.

Or CW's suspended is destined to become replacment parts for our suspended... but that would make sense.

Or, as it was said in another thread, Iron Dragon.

We shouldn't go ahead and say that we're certainly going to get what Canada's Wonderland gets. It would be really nice to have an invert, but I wouldn't look forward to something that wouldn't come for the rest of this season OR the season after, and that's if the speculation is true. I think that Cedar Fair will either re-open Son of Beast or open a new ride the year after they take it down, and when that will be I know as little as everybody else.

I'm wishing for the invert, but I'm pessimistic about everything until I can see solid concrete evidence. Of course I did say the same thing about I305 .
