mantis rumor

Doesn't it sound even more scary? :) Or Should I ask scary and tempting at all? :D

I would love it if they could turn the Mantis into a floorless! I miss the Dominator that was at Geauga Lake!

Holy Thread Bump!!!

Aside from the floorless conversion of Mantis discussion, was it ever determined if Mantis will be painted red and black next year?

The station was painted red but ithe track will not be painted red and black this year. In the future, maybe. But this year, no.

Do we really need more red coasters? I think 4 is enough. And I say 4 because moly orange is close enough to red. ;)

::number edit::

I think a orange and black coaster like Apocalypse at Six Flags America would look really nice. Especially on a B&M.

Well since we are on the topic of colors... What do you think the color of CP's next coaster will be?

Anything but yellow, red and purple. I'd like to see a green coaster again but if it ends up being by raptor I would like an orange coaster.

I wouldn't like Mantis to be black and red. From real colors, a prime mantis is green. If only they would have painted Raptor grey and yellow (colors of a real raptor), then painted Mantis green. That whole Banshee thing screwed the whole scheme up. ;)

I think Purple would look cool. Or even an all white coaster with purple supports or something. I like the idea of white. It would hide all the bird poop..

^ AGREED! I'm tired of seeing red track (especially red with yellow supports)! I think we're in need of some nice green! By the way, if you are counting the moly orange one, it would be 4 "red" coasters in the park: Magnum, Maverick, Dragster, and Iron Dragon.

Also, I hope they don't continue to name their rides with the letter "M" :)

Ah yes, I did mean 4. Guess my fingers don't count Magnum as a red coaster despite what my brain says. ;)

Since we're also talking about the next coaster, what do you think it's name will be? IMO, Cedar Point has always had good names for its coasters. There not even afraid to name a ride a disaster ;)

How about the Lemon Chill ride? LOL!
