Or not. By this point it's hard to keep secrets on the net. Especially when people say exactly what's coming and everyone else says its a Giga, lol. I don't talk when asked not to, but when most people were already blabbing and I wasn't sworn to secrecy, why not?

People always use that phrase, and yet stuff constantly leaks. It's more like, people that know are confident when they talk, while everyone else is just hopes screams cape gets it right.

I wasn't referring to you Clint. If it's all over the internet, then yeah... I see nothing wrong with mentioning it. I was referring to those of us with ties to the park people. We know, but don't talk about it because it would hurt the relationship that has been developed over the years.

Hell, I've seen the ten year plan for Dollywood and Six Flags Over Georgia and I know what Carowinds is getting for the next few years (at least on paper) but I'm not blabbing what it is on message boards and I'm certainly not informing ScreamScape, haha!

Oh, I know, I was just saying in general. Stuff leaks so much now that its hard to keep a lid on anything. Which is why you see KI trying to throw out wing coasters and other rumors.

But what used to be the mantra of those that know is so fargone now. It's hard to surprise anyone that doesn't know where to look or who to talk to.

You know what we're getting?? Can you at least tell me if we are getting anything next year or 2015??

I don't know why, but I found this hilarious.

No one is going to want to retrieve their baseball cap while standing under that!^ What? Too soon? Anyways, on the KICentral forum, somewhat wrote why the coaster is able to go so low to the ground:

"The difference I am trying to point out is the trains should be shorter (in height) on Banshee than a traditional B&M invert. The reason why is because the seats are reclined which makes the rider's lower legs dangle but not past the bottom of the train. Notice the rider's feet on Raptor they dangle at least 6-12 inches below the train because of the non tilted seats. The tilted seats also mean the overall height of the train should be shorter because they are not up and down like traditional B&M's. The picture of Raptor above shows very long supports for the seats. (My guess, which could be wrong, is that the trains for Banshee will be about 1-2 feet shorter.) This means lower passes which you are seeing already during the ride design. Again I could be wrong but that is my view on the trains for the ride."
