Carowinds & Kings Dominion Removing Intimidator Theme from Rides

MF is also about speed and turns and is still very popular. Intamin just dropped the ball with - checks notes - Project 305 and went for too many Gs for those restraints.

So project 305 is the name while they figure out the real name, or is that the real name? I’m confused.

The park has stated that this name, along with its current signage, is temporary. They did note that they have provided hints within the current sign, like the cheetah print, to hint towards its theme and replacement. Being as the new cosster is expected next year, they will debut both in the Jungle Expedition land in the park, so look for them to tie that altogether.

I-305 Isn't in my top ten, but its a damn good and surprisingly smooth ride.

I don't quite get the hate for I305

I also loved skyrush

Same x2. I don't get the hate for either, but I guess I'm in the minority as one who enjoys intense speed, heights, drops, turns, positive and negative Gs.

Kidding. Sort of.

We all like different coasters for different reasons. I also think Skyrush is one of the worst coasters I've ever ridden, so it makes sense that someone who loves that ride would love (also checks notes) Project 305.. Like they say on CoasterBuzz, YMMV.

As much as the park wants people like me to be intrigued about the new name (and the upcoming new mystery name and theme), I don't care much for the coaster in the first place. I'm not losing sleep about it.

I'm actually panning a visit to KD in less than two weeks. I going to give the 305 some attention and positivity. It's coaster video making season again.


being as the new coaster is expected next year

So Italian Job and Flight of Fear will really stand out then?? (I was blown away by the line for Italian Job sans branding when was there last year). I know chances are thin being CF, but new Intamin trains could do wonders. Maybe with Hershey pulling the trigger others will follow.

305 needs the OTSR to protect riders heads from being newton's cradles.


Counting down the days until I'm back at Cedar Point, the one and only place to be.
