Kentucky Kingdom rehabilitation in full swing

There is major progress being made inside Kentucky Kingdom. A lot is happening there and the clock is ticking to reopen the park since developer Ed Hart signed a lease last month with the state. The goal is have the park back open by May 2014 and big changes are already happening.

Mantis layout... awesome. The fact that it's a standup... sucks.

I'm sheriff of this here rollercoaster.

The fact that it's a poorly designed standup...sucks^2.

I began a stupid rumor many years ago about Mantis replacing the trains with floorless trains when working on the ride at Coastermainia (or was it Millennium Mania that year?). I think the reason the rumor was so appealing was that the layout is great, but the way you ride the ride is not.

The one element I'd like to transfer FROM the standups to other genres is the inclined loop. I find it to be a pretty cool trick, and would love to try it in a more comfortable riding position sometime...

Would love it on an invert. That over bank on Silver Bullet is awesome.
