Well, its time to let the speculation start, could it be the rumored Hyper or the rumored kiddie coaster in Land of Dragons..

4 buildings and a coaster, well, you have a Qhouse, maintenance building, gift shop, thats 3 buildings.
Anyway permits have been filed and are at the link above or here is one of it. No drawings or details other then what you see.
Sheikra started with land clearing in April to May. So maybe it doesnt need that much land clearing.

I don't see anywere on there that says what year its for. It could be for 2011 to, but in any case i think it'l be a hyper that they've been rumored to get.

The strange thing is that I was at the park yesterday and was thinking about the new coaster.. What do I see but a construction crane getting set up back in the area beside Kumba. Couple of flat bed trucks for deliveies. However they may have just been there doing work on the water ride as it was closed.. The crain is fairly large in size and could be there for any number of reasons, it was just odd to see it and then to see permits..
Dont know any more about the permits so only time will tell. Last time around with Jungala and Sheikra there really never was much else in the permiting office.. I suspect these records will disapear as soon as Busch realizes they are public.. Even though you have a right under public record to see the permits, they can request not to be availible online..
I would love to see the hyper, but the other rumor with Land of dragons and a kiddie coaster are quite possible.. But Land of Dragons receieved lots of work last year with new paint and refurasment of the area.. So lets hope HYPER>>>> I know I would love it..

If it was another family coaster I would hope for a Vekoma model like Grover's Vapor Trail at Sesame Place.

I'm hearing cheetah themed launched coaster trenched to look like the coaster is racing flat along the ground like a cheetah in pursut of it's prey, and a few airtime hops like a cheetah pouncing on it's prey. The four buildings is Qhouse, Gshop, maintenance building, and a cheetah encloser that quest walk through as part of the Qline, think manta but with cheetahs instead.

I was curious myself, so yesterday I went to our neighborhood dippin' dots (since the employees know all). They said it was a "one of a kind" launched hyper wooden inverted kiddie coaster concept with a cheetah theme.

Proof: Here's the Dippin' Dots that I went to, and the Dippin' Dots people, as you know, know all

There's a closed Eckerd behind that Dippin Dots too. I noticed at Delgrosso's there is a Dippin Dots stand across the sidewalk from their new drop tower site under construction right now.

Don't count on the hyper yet, they have been talking about changing Land of the Dragons to Sesame Street theme...2011 is when I would expect to see the next BIG coaster.

BGA would be great with the first B&M giga coaster (unlikely) or hopefully B&M could come up with a Maverick-style coaster. Maybe even an S&S launched coaster like PowderKeg, yet more intense. A hyper would be cool, but something new from B&M would be even better.
