Looks to me like we are going to have the best B&M hyper in the world.

Might not be the tallest, but the new elements really make it stand out in the coaster world.

I'm soooooo stoked!

I'm still confused as to the West Virginia hint on the crate.

I'm still confused as to the West Virginia hint on the crate.

I believe one of the upper management people attended the University of West Virginia and that it was an inside joke.

Let me remind everyone, that ole Tinkerdog here was the FIRST to state, way back, that this coaster would be called...

THE INTIMIDATOR and would be themed to Dale Earnhardt and hopefully would have themeing around the track with asphalt and some race cars ..... 2 out of 3 ain't bad so far!!! And maybe 3 for 3 when all is said and done!

I'm psychic, what can I say????

Anybody need a fortune told????

OH.... I LOVE THIS RIDE!!!

Thank you CedarFair for this great addition to my HOME PARK! Finally, we are ON THE MAP.... for once!!!

Here's your cookie.



Sorry... I got a little hungry.

Oh, well, you haven't seen me with Dick. And my geekness with the track.

I will have to say that I am rather thrilled at what Carowinds, Cedar Fair and B&M has conjured up for us for 2010. 3 drops taller than anything else on the park. A great second drop plus I love the helix at the end. Not to mention much more already brought up in previous posts. Ready to renew my pass for next year Duane is in China now so he will update 'our' coaster on RCDB when he returns. He is currently in Qingdao, which is on the Eastern coast. He is heading to Shanghai, Chengdu and Guangzhou next. Oh yeah, Jonathan, you did a fantastic job on the Landmark Moment post on the front page. Very well said and informative.

It is also a tie in to Cedar Point's new ride for 2010
