Mystery Construction
.............I think that Cedar Point is gonna make us go crazy with all these wild clues. An Aquatrax would be adequate, but an uber Aquatrax or other awesome Cedar Point-esque coaster would be even better. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.............
The giant spider has been in there for a while, he comes and goes. The first time I saw him the other camera was still pointed at the barn. The first thing I thought of was Halloweekends!
I noticed the flags when I was up there this past week! The mystery continues....
Life is like a rollercoaster! It is full of ups and downs
Definitely NOT taking the Beemer out for a spin today. Or next year for that matter.
That was just posted to Twitter a few minutes ago
Has anyone seen this yet?

Seems a little odd if you ask me. But wait there is more!

Maybe the beemer's a convertible and they're worried about the lake gulls in the parking lot.

Yeah, we've seen that.
I hadn't seen this mentioned on here, but my apologies if it already slipped through: I googled "crystal rock bottling company," and of course, the first page of results basically directed back to these forums, but the very last result was a 2007 article from the Waterbury Republican-American in CT. I had to go through a registration process to get it, but here is the full text of the article:
Saturday, September 15, 2007 4:54 PM EDT Grant to help Watertown company catch some rays The same technology found in a pocket calculator soon will help amultimillion dollar beverage company save thousands on its electricbills. The Crystal Rock Bottling Company has received a $1.3 millionstate grant to help defray the cost of installing an array of 1,764solar panels on the roof of its headquarters on Buckingham Street.Therenewable energy generators will provide the beverage company with 28percent of its total energy needs, reducing its average monthlyelectric bill of $15,000. For more, read The Sunday Republican.
Obviously, I very much doubt there is a connection here, but it was interesting to see that the name has been used for a corporate purpose before. I also saw that there is a "Crystal Rock Water Company" that has a business address of Buckingham Street as well, so this article could have just incorrectly stated the corporate name.
I'm defiantly thinking water ride of some kind, not a roller coaster or other thrill ride. I'd put money on an Intamin log flume which if properly themed could be a great family ride much like Dudley Do-Right (but I'd put money on less theming.

Why would they throw out all of this coaster stuff at us if it's just going to be a flume? Personally, that would be alright . . . but I am hoping for a new coaster myself:)

I know how you feel mourningglorie. I was hoping maybe a someday a B&M Floorless would come to Cedar Point as well. Since Dominator left Geauga Lake, we don't have a Floorless in OH.
I was hoping for a B&M (preferably floorless too)...maybe another time. Can't wait to see what they really have in store.

Since im basically certain it is a flume, I'd like it to be a nice long ride with atleast decent theming(I can wish)and a nice drop.
Personally, I still think the "Gee, See Eye" post was very important.

Why do they call it common sense, when it's so infrequently used?
When they mentioned not taking out the Beemer next year, maybe that's a reference to the old car ride in Frontiertown (a.k.a BMW's). Since they have two other car rides (next to Blue Streak and in the Midway area), maybe they are taking the old cars ride out in Frontiertown to put the station for the new ride and therefore the ride won't be at Cedar Point next year. Thats just a guess though.
Closed topic.
