As I stated above, I do not know of his knowledge of "project 2007". However, I will contact cedar point about this website as well as the appropriate authorities who will be able to find out what information he has been provided, if any.

<spoken in a Dr Evil voice> ....right. Like execs at CP have never heard of PointBuzz, Jeff or Walt? They have publicly stated that they visit the sight on a regular basis to see "what's happenin' ". Give me, no give yourself, a break.

I agree about Kinzel's legacy. It's so much more than just one ride, with the possible exception of Magnum which literally changed the coaster and amusement park world forever.

I think "Project 2007" will be a large endeavor, that will entail more than just a single coaster, and I don't think that specific coaster will be something completely revolutionary and legacy-creating like Magnum was. It will be a fitting way to end his tenure, as it will bring some revitalization to Frontier Town, and balance out the park in a very complete, and fun-for-all way. By doing this, he will achieve far more in the grand scheme of things than just adding some new coaster type, or a 500 foot record breaker.

Kinzel just wants Cedar Point to be the absolute best amusement park it can be, and "Project 2007" is going to do just that.

As far as Jeff and Walt are concerned, after all that they have done for CP and with CP over the years, I would think it's only fair that they have been given some knowledge of what's going on. It's called rewarding loyalty, and support, and nobody should be upset that they know. Would it be nice if the rest of the people here knew? I guess. For a moment it would be satisfying. But in truth, don't you think it's a lot more fun NOT knowing, and trying to figure it all out? I bet after the details are actually announced, there will be far less talk about "Project 2007" than there is now. It's the nature of the beast. So enjoy your speculating for the time being, and enjoy this season at CP. Chances are once "Project 2007" is announced, you will experience some degree of "let-down" from all the anticipation.

It's Opening Day! Let's all go enjoy it! :)


Take care and God bless!

Amen to that...

Now, everyone go to sleep, it's openning day tomorrow and we all have to wake up early to get to the park (or at lease the ones that are going).

What a tool. The SEC is busy going after people who have committed real crimes that have real evidence and hurt real people, and not just the feelings of some twit who wasn't included.

Well since you're going to use four letter words, I guess you meet the hammah.

Good riddance. I was about to post how about how ridiculous this person is, but now I see that I have no need. :)

Speculation is the name of the game for Cedar Point. Anyone who thinks different is kidding themselves.

If Martha Stewart were a CP-fan girl, she too would know something big was happening at CP within the next year. Specifics? Maybe. Public knowledge? Somewhat, it's not like it's being hidden. Would she end up in jail again if she thought that FUN was going to go bigger because of a new attraction? I'd say no.

Josh - Mine either. I even used 'Swingset on Steroids' - I thought for sure that quote would get in there ;)

What's really funny is Jeff called that guy a tool first.

Ben- I've seen that swing on steroids quote all over the place, so it must be getting around!

Normally I don't get insanely excited about things...

...but it is such a tease to see "Project 2007: 05/06/06" on the photo gallery pull-down menu. :) It's ready and waiting for pictures to be posted, and I am looking forward to seeing them.

I am going to the park tomorrow, but still...I want to see those from-the-plane photos!

Ugh. Don't complain about something when you don't even know what it will be.

Everyone always says it --- no matter what it is, someone will find something to complain about.

Color will minimally effect the thrill of a new ride. And last time I checked, people weren't coming to Cedar Point to exercise their color receptors in their eyeballs.

who says I don't know what it will be, it wasn't a real complaint, I'll be happy no matter what color it is. I just wondered why they like red so much
