Flight of Fear...2006, where the Xtreme Skyfler is now
Remodeling and rethemeing of the Wayne's World area
Closing of Rip Roaring Rapids, in favor of newer water ride

LOL, thoose are funny rumors, I doubt FOF is coming, that would be a waste, we are too to Kings Dominion. As for the Rapids, they still attract people and serve their purpose, this ain't Disneyland, we don't waste space anymore. The Skycoaster is pretty stuck because it still makes money.

Not true but how does that sound? lol

I've got one better.

Carowinds is going to get the first Titan Coaster!

That's right... standing at 600ft tall this giant of coasters will require riders to wear safety helmets!

lol :rolleyes:

A person with guest services told me yesterday that there will be a lot of changes by next year and that they are talking about expanding the waterpark into the old parking lot beside Thunder Road

Maybe we could get a Flight of Fear that is a different type of coaster. Doesn't Paramount have several different Top Gun and Vortex Coasters. Just because they use a name, doesn't mean the coaster has to be the same. Not that I would complain about a copy cat FoF, I love it and don't think age makes much difference if you have a real winner.

Anyway... my bet is on a Boomerang Bay makeover but I kinda doubt we will see a water coaster, just new slides. Hopefully Frenzoid will be gone and we can have a new path on that side of County Fair. Maybe it's just me but I feel like I get stuck in that section of the park and hate having to backtrack around Scooby's Haunted Mansion to continue around the park.

I bet our FOF (if we ever get one) will be a euro-fighter or a premeir rides lim coaster of a different design.

This is what i am thinking just like everybody else is Boomerang Bay and then minor park improvements. If we do get a hyper we can save the money that we use for next year for some major theming for the hyper

As I have Posted in a Similar Topic before I did state that the Park has been renovating diffrent areas each season. The only ones left are County Fair, Showplace(Vortex Area) I don't know if they have changed the name or not, and Thrill Zone AKA Waynes World. Also Kiddie Land needs to be updated. If they get Boomerang Bay they will also have another Minor addition to the park. I don'tthink that they will put all the Eggs in one basket and just work on the Waterpark. The Last addition to the Waterpark was the Year of the Haunted Mansion. Now something I have heard is the Closed rides in Kidde Land are going to make way for a Patway from Zoom Zone to the Upper Portion of Hanna Barbera. opw this is Only Rumors that I have heard. I think the next MAJOR Coaster will be in 2009.

I heard that is a cool place with a water slide can go up and do. Like a real rollercoaster.

That makes a lot of sense, i hope they do that, it will definitely make that part of the park flow better. 2009 seems a little bit too far away IMO, i could (hopefully not) see next one being 2007, but not 2009.

Personally I wouldn't mind it if the Vortex was taken out. It's just not an exciting ride.

I don't think that's going to happen for a long time.

The coaster is only 12 years old, and the ridership is always higher than Goldrusher and Hurler when I'm out at the park. The GP still thinks a standup is an amazing thing, even when enthusiasts don't. :)
