| | | ^ Oh whatever...stop complaining.
I think that CP will build a spinning mouse similar to timberland twister at camp snoopy. I bet it will go in frontier town and it will interact with the midway like corkscrew does...

| | | i dont think they should count kiddy coasters its so stupid.like if a park wanted to get the record they could build 10 kiddy coasters and they would be counted they should build a coaster that at least passes 35 mph to count as a coaster.

| | | /\ Sorry, you're an idiot. Families with little kids [i]do[/i] visit the parks you know. :rolleyes: Rollercoasters aren't just built for die-hard hardcore thrill enthusiasts like me and you, they are also built to cater different age and fun/thrill seeking groups. You make it seem like parks add kiddy coasters to "up" their count. NEWS BRIEF FOR YOU: WRONG!
And a rollercoaster is a rollercoaster. Whether it be 150 feet tall or 10 feet tall, 70 mph or 12 mph. If it is powered by gravity and coasts up and along a fixed track, then it's a rollercoaster.
As for Cedar Point "striking back", it really looks as if they don't care, all rumors and land markings show to flat-ride type rides or the suggested new flume ride. And they shouldn't care about what Magic Mountain is doing. Both parks are on opposite sides of the country and are not directly competing for the same customers.

| | | ^ Amen to that.
I think CP will get a new coaster like carowinds said, in 2007. You can all wait 2 years. I don't think the number of coasters really matters. If a ride is good and another is bad, then the good is twice the bad. Quality over quantity. |

| | | Thank You. I agree, CP does not care what MM does. Plain & simple.
But if i wanted to argue i could say Flashback does not count since it has not operated in years but i'm not going to start anything.
The two park are not competing in any way, shape or form.

| | | But when you market yourself as the roller coaster capital of the world, I think that having the most coasters has a lot of significance. I live in florida and get CP commercials all of the time because CP is now doing national ads. And a lot of people, especially from my high school, have commented on the park saying, "Wow! I saw a comercial with an amusement park with 16 roller coasters! I got to make it there one of these days!"
So to say that CP doesn't care about their record is just foolish. I still stand by my statement as to what I think will be added next year, and I honestly think that it might be true...

| | | I think CP Will be getting rid of Demon Drop next season, maybe add a filler ride, and add something big in 2007.

| | | Whatever. Seariously SFMM doesn't desirve the record anyway. Flashback never runs, S-TE seems to have caught the "broken intamin syndrome as well" and most of their other rides rotate the dates that that actually opporate. Cedar Point at least their coasters up and running (except Dragster). Basically I wouldn't be suprised at all to Cedar Point build two coasters in 07'. One small and family oriented and one large, probably a flyer or floorless, although an Intamin mega looper isn't out of the possibilities either.
I guess we'll just have to sit back and watch.

Two coasters in one season for Cedar Point? Well, that would be a first. An Intamin mega-looper is something that Cedar Point needs though. Why? That park is greatly lacking in the inversions department, considering it is at the time of this post, tied with a park for the coaster count crown that has claim to the largest number of inversions in the world, while itself is in 6th place. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
