Patriot

It appears from RCDB that the "Patriot" name may be going to to Worlds of Fun. B&M Invert.

Forgot the link. Sorry.

I think the red, white, and blue track and the paper reading Worlds of Fun says it all. I'm interested to see if this is a flying coaster or inverted, but I doubt a flying coaster would be right.

I wonder if you scan the bar code it comes up "one B&M coaster - $15 million". :)

It looks like Invert track to me. But they are the same aren't they... Hard to call at this point. Give it some time and see which way it faces. :)

no, invert track is different then every other B&M track.

most people are saying invert, and i agree with them, the midwest is in need of a coaster like raptor.

Well, I was planing a fall trip through Kansas City, But now I think I'll wait til Next Summer. :)

Actually, the barcode comes up "606200003" but, shh... don't tell anyone. ;)

It's inverted. Look at the one with all of the support poles. They've got the right angle on one end to hold the track in its inverted position.

It is inverted dead obvious. Look at the supporst on the lift. For where the little cart goes up they already have those made.

A new inverted coaster sounds awesome! I wonder if it'll get the "tallest" inverted coaster record.Sounds great...maybe I'll have to try to make a trip over the Worlds of Fun in a few years...;)

Dude why would you say Cedar Point won't get another coaster till 2007?? It doesn't always go a new ride every 2 years. In 2002 CP got Wicked Twister. The next year CP got Top Thrill Dragster. So you never know.

Damn!!!!

I thought that michigans adventure was next on the list for a new ride/ coaster. Oh well, I guess I'll have to keep my fingers crossed for 2007.

MIA could still get a new coaster for 2006

MiAdv will get SOMETHING in 2006...

MrScott... are you hiding something from us? Or do you just have really educated guesses?

Dare I say it...more new bathrooms? Probably too much to ask, I know, but it can't hurt to dream. ;) *** Edited 7/9/2005 10:31:39 PM UTC by FrontierDale***

ragan I didn't know they were different. Thanks. But umm Raptor is in the Midwest.

MIA is really lacking everything a mega park needs. Bathrooms, food locations, good roller coasters and yes the "S's" do mean something.

Ohio imo isnt in the midwest. CP is in the eastern part of the contry, where as KC is near dead center of the country. anything east of indiana is midwest to me, or anything north of arkansas.
