New Cedar Fair trademark Fury 325

That's great news really. Centurion is a way better name. It's almost un-Cedar Fairish.

Kinda like Rougarou. ;)

Where do you think Fury 325 will go.

Knott's is the only "big" park left in the chain without a major coaster investment recently...but KBF has the bad neighbors, and would be in for a battle to build something that tall...

Of course, *if* Knott's got something like Big Fury...Dorney might end up with Xcelerator... ;~P

I'd be OK with that. That would put XCelerator much closer to home.

Is the Intimidator name license running out?

I don't think so. Even if it was, neither of those coasters is 325 feet tall, so it wouldn't make a lot of sense for a rename.

I am perfectly fine with recycling if it is Xcelerator. I'd love to have that in my backyard. It would probably fit real nice where Stinger sits. Heh..

Is Cedar Fair's license for the Intimidator name, or for the Earnhardt trademarks, trade dress, etc?

They have a licensing agreement with DEI (google it, Jason).

Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened.

It sure looks like the license arrangement with Earnhardt doesn't include the Intimidator name; if so, the name stays even if the Earnhardt trademarks go away.

And Stinger would be a great fit at SFNE if they wanted to sell outside the chain.


The trick was to surrender to the flow.

If Knotts gets Fury325 and has to remove Xecelerator in the process.
Then send Xecelarator to KD
It could be the home of
DominatOR
IntimadatOR
XecelratOR

Roll eyes!

^And it would also be the sixth launched coaster to exist at the park.

King Kobra...

Didn't have to look that one up.....thanks, Dad.

Dur. Brain fart there. Got my wires crossed between King Kobra (KD), King Cobra (KI), and Shockwave (KD).
