The funny thing is i just got through watching the on ride POV and off ride footage of blue fire and wouldnt mind seeing our next coaster as such not a clone tho, but a custom layout with white track and white supports. White Lightnin'!!!

I haven't weighed in for a long time, but am delighted with Fury325 and what is to happen in the future at our park. I knew in my heart that CF had great things planned, but never thought it would be this good. If I were in the "driver's seat" and could make the call on what would come next, aside from already knowing that there will be a waterpark expansion of some kind for 2016, I would be talking to Intamin about a rowdy multi-looping coaster with at least 8 inversions(more than anyone else in North America) AND I would be talking to Rocky Mountain Construction about signature, looping WOOD. Naturally, I've always wanted something along the lines of Maxair or Delirium, which would be a wonderful flat expansion. I think our drop tower is too small, considering where we are headed elsewhere in the park - I sure love those drops at KD and KI - wish ours was that tall and impressive... my thoughts....

What about talking to Intamin for a launch? IMO, we need a launch way before a multi-looper. Afturburn can fill that void until we do indeed get a multi-looper.

What's the love affair with blue fire? It appears to be slow, no airtime, etc. If you want to ride something similar go ride back yard stunt track at KD sans inversions.

I know it's a wish list thread but y'all can stop wishing for an Intamin anything...

Blue Fire has gotten amazing reviews regardless of what someone thinks of the pov, and helix is getting even better reviews.

I wants Mack.

could this happen for 2017?
it would only take out a food stand and a little pathway to the water park

I think that in the future years we will see Hurler become a steel-wood hybrid. It would be a smart choice for the park because
-The park could use a really big wooden coaster.
-Hybrids seem to be really popular right now.
-With Fury 325 built, the thrill zone area is going to be PACKED, and there needs to be another popular attraction in the area to stop the Fury line from being so long.

Hurler is currently undergoing a rehab from GCI like TR got. It's not getting RMCed any time soon.

Yeas running well last Saturday. No trims.
