Hilltopper39 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I still think X-Flight has a much better looking layout than Wild Eagle, should be a great addition to the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Edge of Beast- Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I'm guessing they're just gonna trash the station sooner or later. I don't know what would go in that area. I'd be amazed if they put a new coaster there in the future, but that probably won't happen for a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcjaco Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Considering it's the orignal Z-Force station, one never knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryce232 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Aquatrax. Anyone know if the site is getting close to vertical construction? Can't wait to see that red B&M track 100 feet in the air! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jojo19799 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 ^I drive by the park on my way to and from work (Washington St. entrance to be exact). I haven't seen anything just yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airtime&Gravity Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) I'm guessing they're just gonna trash the station sooner or later. I don't know what would go in that area. I'd be amazed if they put a new coaster there in the future, but that probably won't happen for a few years. I'm not sure if they're in storage, but I can see some of the flats from Looney Tunes National Park going into the area by Camp Cartoon behind Spacley's Sprocket Rockets. As for where the entrance is, who knows. I'd like to see a major flat ride or two or a dark ride built. It's been a long time since we've had a flat ride built, and something like a Gerstlauer Sky Fly or S&S Screamin Swing would be great. Then again, who knows. Maybe we'll end up with SFNE's Flashback in that area...hell, paint it green and call it Deja vu.

11slataus Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 This park sure loves yellow and red coasters Yes it does very much. For the record, Batman used to be black. Hopefully when Batman is repainted it will get the blue color that Magic Mountain and Over Georgia got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
traincrossin Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 People always complain about having three yellow coasters all semi-close to each other and I don't understand why. You never notice it when you're in the park and even if you do you're never going to think "OMG three yellow coasters?! I don't like that!!", you just keep doing what you were doing that day.

11slataus Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 ^They really need to put something in the Iron Wolf location, that section of the park looks empty. I'm gonna guess a Zacspin for that area. It would fit pretty nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Farmer Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 That or a Eurofighter (but hopefully neither of those). Still think a mid-sized looper like NE's Batman is something the park lacks and would replace Iron Wolf best next time the park adds some steel.

deathbydinn Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm not sure if they're in storage, but I can see some of the flats from Looney Tunes National Park going into the area by Camp Cartoon behind Spacley's Sprocket Rockets. They are, the lady bugs are backstage and some of the ride cars were in between Condor and Superman this summer, not sure if they were moved or not. I'd be surprised if they already scrapped any of them, they seem to hold on to things for a few years. I'd like to see a few of them put in the old areas with kiddie rides like HTS near Orbit, or the bees back in YH. SWT could use a kiddie ride too. But I think the ladybugs might be done for, as those closed after the 2009 season, and the rest closed after the 2010 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I think a Zacpspin in Iron Wolf spot named Z-Force 2 or even just Z-Force would be sweet. Sort of similar rides and would be a nice tribute. But I'd rather get a GCI themed to Yukon Territory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they ever notice that Cedar Point has 4 coasters with red track, 5 if you count Mantis. I don't see what the big deal is. If they are good thats all that matters to me!

deathbydinn Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 ^ They've been saying for a while on Facebook that it won't open until Memorial day weekend, which is the usual opening day for their new rides. I don't really see what the problem is, it's on a tuesday, so the park won't even be open to the general public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
