Causeway Shot

I'm sure you've all seen the commercial for CP, where at the end it shows a car driving up a narrow road, which is supposed to be the causeway. Anyway, i looked at the picture closer and in the bottom right corner i saw a yellow coaster with purple supports, i know Mantis has these colors and I thought thats what it might be, but the purple is almost a pink color. Let me know what you think.

See it?

Oh now that is definitly weird. That isn't Mantis---If it is, someone REALLY messed up on the support color. Maybe cp is hinting at what they are getting? But I doubt it would be yellow, I mean they already have 2 yellow ones now....

OMG! The Space Spiral is leaning!!" Must be the weight of that new air conditioning system everyone keeps hypothesizing about...

I wouldn't get too worked up over it. It appears to be a an image of the first hill on Mantis. The color balance was most likely adjusted in an image editing package to more closely match the warm hues of the rest or the montage, creating a balanced composition.

yeah.. what he said

Haha, does any coaster in that picture really look like it does in real life!? :) They're all backwards, out of proportion, colored wrong, or something else. It's probably intended to be Mantis, but like the other rides pictured, it isn't very accurate. :)

Better question: Why is this hosted at cedarpoint.com?

Because it appears as one of the rotating home page images.

To me, it looks like the final hill on MF. Just before the brake run.

MF: 5
WT: 0
MAG: Phh... After about 10 at once I stop counting. So take that as it is.

It looks kinda like Mantis' inclined loop.

I think it is Mantis's turn that goes over the station. My reasoning is, that if you look to the right there appears to be a smaller piece of curved track (the inclined loop). The trees cover what would be the track the connects the two.

At least that's my theory.

All my god it looks like Jesus
J/K but yes it could be a hint

400+ft by 2005? only Cedar Point can answer.

I think it does look like MF's last hill too. Also, look at Raptor. Just befroe Wicked Twister, it ends.
