I completely forgot about Space Spiral and the bobsled coaster being demolished. Now you KNOW that the cost of that would have been right much. I'm pretty sure it's not cheap to get the explosives to do the job, and to hire the crew to put it into place. There's a lot of work involved when demolishing rides, especially a roller coaster.

Gatekeeper was 25 million?

Yeah...and leviathan cost 28 million. So based on some folks theory, putting wing rider trains on a coaster like leviathan would cost 12 million...I'm sorry, over 12 million...

Guys, I have it!

I just don't see much good coming from a giga wing coaster. It would be very uncomfortable unless it has lap bars. A vest restraint would be very annoying going at 95+ mph. Also, I don't think winged trains would run too well on Leviathan. It would take modifications. Now, Skyrush style trains I would not mind at all. Well, without the thighcrush lap bars.

I'm betting it all that Skyrush-style trains are what we are getting. The city council meeting had to mean something

Soooooo...how would you guys feel bout a stand up wing rider over the head lap bar giga coaster??? A big bird just dropped that on me...and floofless trains on vortex! #2015 is gonna be great!

I'm pretty sure a giga stand-up would murder somebody.

The "official" cost of GateKeeper included the cost of the front gate renovation.

I wonder if they could put these on The Wing riders?

Oh my goodness, I posted a comment on the previous page describing lap bar harnesses like those found on Intimidator here at Carowinds. Not to mention the added luxury of suspension under each seat for added comfort.

Well, back to the colors. I think that purple and blue would look nice. I've been thinking for a while and I can't name many purple Cedar Fair coasters.

Purple would be nice but it's dark. Cedar loves bright vibrant colors. I was surprised Banshee got that magenta color, but at the same time they repainted flight deck at California's Great Adventure from all black to red track and white supports. Even nighthawk from black/green to yellow/blue, well that was needed for the name I guess. Cyclone from dark blue to sky blue and yellow inversion and orange turns. Vortex black supports to light grey supports.

Well, maybe a brighter purple. I really do miss Nighthawk's green and black.

Come to think of it, I guess I'm ok with the teal, really cyan, track IF it's carowinds. Had it been yellow that would piss me off in the long run being nighthawk and cyclone both have yellow track. To much red and to much yellow lol.

Just not red. Two red coasters dominating the skyline would suck.
