No. Because, one seat per car would mean 12 total (too few), two seats per car would mean 24 total (still small), and three seats per car would mean 36 total (perfect). But, B&M doesn't do three seats per car. That'd be awkward.

Ok, went to the park today for a couple hours. No pics, wife has the camera with her summer camp kids. No use really. Doesn't appear to be any more track in. Thunder Road was down today, but from the top of Afterburn I couldn't see anything more in the area than the pieces that have been reported on. They are digging around the area where the drain/hole has been. I would say the possibility of a small pond in the area is good. I guess we'll see soon. And no, I didn't say splash down. Also pouring more footers. The usual stuff.

This (http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/blog/index.cfm) is Cedar Point's blog page. In the recent update, it has a link to here (http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/news/g ... onsors.cfm). You can click on the sponsors and the Crystal Rock Bottling Company takes you here (http://www.whytelightning.com/).

"lightning strikes twYce", "White Lightning", "BOLD. EXCITING. REFRESHING", "A beverage unlike any other. Coming soon..."

:lol:

First off, remember, that is off of CP's blog page. It may or may not have to do with this coaster. Also, it seems as though CF is tying all of next year's coasters together. KD and CarW's themes, CP blog and FB with hints that relates to CarW. :?

I know, it's pretty funny. CF is into simple; no theming, just a few plants (maybe) and some concrete. But, maybe since they are spending so much more money next year (three or more large coasters), maybe they thought they'd go the extra mile. With extra publicity, more people will go to the parks (remember, attendance is down). I know, it's crazy, but everything is tied together one way or another.

:lol:

That is really good. Love it. :lol: Are we maybe looking at red track, blue supports and white trains? Not sure how I feel about that, but I do really like the bold, exciting and refreshing shades of blue in the picture. Or maybe the trains will be blue with the white lightning bolt? ....hey, what is with the capitalized "Y", as in "twYce"?

All you coaster/computer geeks have your work cut out for you---run along now and find us some more clues!!!

Definitely a CF made website, looks like CP might also be getting a "Whyte Lightning"

Is it possible the steel fabrication facility for our new coaster (or some of the components) could be somewhere in WV? There is a reference to WV on the crate in the park and now this unheard of drink is listing it's supposed brewing company as WV.

I am just throwing this out there..... :?
