Heres a hint: The manufacturer of the new coaster has built 90 coasters around the world, 54 of them are in the United States.

I can't see them getting rid of the Gr8Sk8, its pretty popular with kids (and adults), plus didn't they just order replacement parts and fixed it up just last season? Why go through all that if they had any intention to remove it any time soon. Not impossible, I guess, but definitely unlikely.

I also think its pretty unlikely they'd put the Skyflyer in the "front", assuming you mean in front of Intimidator. I just can't see it looking good there. That's not proof it won't be by any means, just because "I can't see it" in my mind. But idk. I just cnat see it. Lmao.

But I did like your post of the pic of Afterburn's Jet in storage. Hmmm...

The last thing we need in this park, is the loss of more smaller family flat rides. Hopefully they relocate it and don't remove. Maybe if they move it from Planet Snoopy to elsewhere in the park it can run all out like it did in years past. I enjoy your clues however Mr/Mrs unknown. :)

tarheel, have you been on anything other than a beemer? While I am a huge fan of them for something of this magnitude I would truely thing that a company like intamin can do the ride justice. Now the tallest Beemer i have been on is intimidator (actually it is the tallest in america) I have been on taller intamins...I have to give the edge to them...

I've been on Millenium Force. if anything, I'd rather see something like this at the park, just with more airtime. I'm not that much of a fan of I-305. Just too short. Seems more twisty than focused on airtime. I've never actually been on it, so maybe I can't judge it, but I want a long and lengthy ride. Maybe a 300 ft. version of Bizarro?
