Mystery Construction

I honestly don't remember the specifics of the conversation too well, but I'm pretty sure he was talking about the maintenance related issues for most of what I heard of the El Toro discussion. It switched to Kingda Ka and other coasters a few minutes after I sat down.

They could always build over top Thunder Canyon if they absolutely had to. I doubt the ride or what ever there building will reach that far, though. A eurofighter would be great I recently rode Mystery Mine this past June and was highly impressed, I rated it just above Maverick.

What about a x-car coaster rip,ride,and rockit is said to get 1850 pph+that awesome loop and vertical lift

Some people are getting close. Hmmmmmmmm nope, not telling yet!!

^^You know honestly, I like the loop and sound system thing they're doing with Rip Ride Rocket, but the whole layout in general seems....blah. IMO

...And Dragster's layout took so much imagination ;)

People seem to be assumming that it would be connected to frontier trail. I think it makes much more sense to go towards the Gemini midway. They could snake an out and back between the bathrooms and Gemini and use the space currently occupied by the far end of the Soak City parking lot. The loading area would be in the wooded area across from the Gemini bathroom and the island and non wooded area on other side of lagoon would be used for the turns part of the ride. Or you could get more area by relocating the Gemini bathrooms and/or the buildings back there elsewhere.

Interesting. I'm not sure they'd get rid of the Planning & Development building though.

They are relocating the trees and rides from Charmland to the spot...

Check this out.

^ Agreed. I love the Magnum part. They have to add on to the support structure!

Oh hardy har har.:)
What I'm kinda getting at is that it seems they focused more on the audio experience than the ride. Of course I realized it's what they could do with what they had to work with.

Dragster, at least, focuses on it's height and speed. It's main claims to fame.:)

This isn't going to turn into another poor Mantis crew thread is it?

No way pal ! Not sure if you remember, but the crew has nothing to do with it. We all know 3 is better than 2 ;)

Hey, if you go to Roller Coaster Pro and enter the blog:

http://blogged.rollercoasterpro.com/04-01-09.php

you will notice somethin very interesting about the clearing on Millennium Island? I cannot tell if it an April Fool's Joke or not. Check it out!

or maybe they'll use it for another graveyard ;)

^^ I just posted that five posts above your's.

CPman what's so interesting about that photo? That photo is pretty much the reason this thread is here.

And for him to have that much information about a ride...that is somewhat of a mish mash of different ideas on this very forum...is a little too obvious about it being an April Fools Joke.

People lets not get to crazy about this new roller coaster. SRF will be staying and the rumor i have been told is that it is a B&M Hyper coaster with water works. Kinda like Maverick but better.....dont ask i dont even think a ride will be as good as that one. But it is a B&M Hyper and the track will start to show up at the end of july / beginning of august. Oh yeah one more thing its going to be as tall as maggy but not as tall as MF. Cant wait to hear a name for it either! Start saying some names and colours. Colour: Red or Brown (red is cp favourite coulour, Brown is western)Name: Elk (western animal)

I think it be pretty cool to see a dark ride/eurofighter or dark/inverted on millennium island. THey could theme it like MIllennium because it is on the island, but make it like a mini version...Im not sure where this is going, but I have that idea in my head ha.
