I don't know about you but I think a Huss Giant Frisbee would be quite fun. It is always better than nothing.

Wow, more ride contract rumors.

Don't forget about the 3rd Intamin rocket that the contract set up, either.

The removal of the Swan Boats was to make room for a 200 mph, 1,200-foot tall roller coaster named Atom Smasher. I thought everyone knew that. I mean, why else would they remove the Swan boats?

If a B&M contract was made for three coasters (eyes roll) I would think MiA or GL would get it before CP.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they wait 6 years for the next coaster after all the problems and maintenance issues they're had with the last two. Anyone remember what the former VP said when they added Mean Streak? "You won't see another wooden coaster here as long as I'm VP!" The higher-ups are probably not saying THAT phrase, but I bet they're fed up with the nightmare's TTD and WT have caused them.

The only thing that would fix that is if they add a good ol' reliable B&M.


Go right through for MSU!

The last thing GL needs is another adult coaster when "Family Amusement Park" is their tagline.

WT has had SOME problems, TTD has had more. And your point is the manufacturer sucks? So they can't fix things, but they know how to build them.

Delirium at King's Island.

This would be a very welcome addition if it happened, but for now it's rumor.

Okay, let's try that one again. This time in English.

Are you saying that you aren't ruling out a new ride because large-scale Dragster construction didn't start till mid-season in 2002?

A more valid point might be that most of the time ride construction hasn't really started until either very late season or during the off-season.

I really don't care if they add anything next year. If they add a flat ride i won't ride it. If they add a coaster the lines will be huge and chances of me riding it are slim. Whatever happens happens. It's only July, enjoy the next 3 months of operation then start worrying about next year.

Well, let's just leave it at (or at least, I will. No one else will.) Cedar Point will be getting something new for 2005.

Some will like it, other's won't.

Some may get there hopes up, other's won't.

Some may guess correctly, other's won't.

But I know, I will be happy with what ever happens next year.

Let the controversy/guessing continue... *** Edited 7/10/2004 4:13:51 AM UTC by Topthrill420***

Jeff, I thought the Atom Smasher wasn't coming until 2007, for Kinzel's finale!

I guess Kinzel has even greater plans up his sleeve. According to the Lemon Chill Guy(tm), Cedar Fair is planning a 1,826 foot tall coaster/Intamin transport ride, which will connect Cedar Point and Geauga Lake, and which will debut for the 2007 season.

I like the name though, and would love to use it in RCT2.

I think it's a fair assumption that we'll be getting something next season.

Ride, coaster, or landscaping is still undetermined.

I really think that if you look at Cedar Fairs and watch the other projects in the company you will get a feel of what might be come. I mean Knotts got Xcelerator then Cedar Point got TTD. Cedar Point got Raptor then Dorney got Talon. Dorney,Knotts, and WOA all got Huss rides wheather its a giants or not doesn't really matter. So here is my thought on the 05 season. WOA and Camp Snoopy at Mall of America both got a spinning wild mouse. So I think that Cedar Point will be adding a spinning wild mouse in to their mix plus a Huss ride. (once again giant or not doesn't matter, But it is Cedar Point and more then likely would be a giant.) Here are my thoughts though on the next BIG coaster. Knotts and Dorney are both getting a B&M. Knotts with Silver Bullet and Dorney with Hydras Revenage. Its my thoughts that Cedar Point will be getting a B&M for there next big coaster. But i truelly don't see them adding a Floorless (seeing as CF has one only an hour away from cedar point) and we all ready have a Inverted and stand up. I am not really seeing them adding another sit-down coaster, unless there are inverstions. I hear a lot of people bad mothing B&M flyers, But I think it will be a Flyer truelly and let us not forget that it is CP that would be getting it (if it is to be a flyer) so it would be unique in its on way. Not just a clone.
