Knott's getting Giga???

I hear ya, Mantomatic. I see the same people who write these one line sentences on how much they know and what parks are getting.What also kills me is that,they add the smiley face wink, like that's going to add validity to their statements. Oh yes, I definitely believe you, now...NOT!
-----------------
Ummmmm...the smiley face was for you and anybody else who might have taken me seriously! It was added so that you wouldn't take me seriously. My use of "Hyper" really did refer to fun...not height. Sorry if I offended you!
Of course I don't know what it will be for sure. 1 thing I do know is that the site is extremely small...too small for something huge. Is that better?

"I'll bet that thing hits 5 Gs going through that loop.....faaar ooouut!"

And BTW...I'm with Mamoosh...always have been. Even though I don't know what his sources are, it just plain makes sense for the site.

Now....let's hope everything goes well during construction. ;)

Thank you, Mammoosh and Jeff! I LOVE Mr. Freeze and I cannot wait to see Intamin's slant on it, smoother, longer, and hopefully with the same intensity!

NOW BUILD IT!!

Thanks for the back-up, Jeff. Sorry I questioned your CP Impulse info...LOL! I should have known better.

Should I PGP-encode my Knott's new ride info to prove myself there too? ;)

You know, Chris Senn hit this one on the head on the last page. Im just wondering why no one is giving him any credit what so ever. All I saw was bickering over minor details and his spelling. Then Mammosh is given all the credit. What he is saying is very credible and fairly right on. I was just thiking to myself why he is getting all the kind words here. Not trying to start anything here. Just making an observation.

SFMMman2001: FWIW I don't feel I deserve any credit or kind words. Early this year I happened to be in the right place at the right time and lucked into some info. And what's funny is that it didn't come from my usual source and I didn't even believe it at first [because of Cali Screamin' down the street] until it was confirmed by a few other independent sources. I don't divulge info to brag or look cool. I tell what I know when I feel comfortable doing so. If I've ever given the impression that I'm guessing its only because until the park makes an official annoucement plans can change from conception to construction and the info I have might not be 100% correct.

Oh, I know the story Mamoosh. I met ya at the taping for Ghostrider a while back. I think it was in July of this year or something like that. We went on PP together, you let me stick my stuff in the backback you had with ya. Anyways, you probaly dont remember me (6'1", bonde hair, 18 yrs old) but I do remember you telling me and a few others about the new ride.

SFMMman2001: I remember ya...its just with all these screen names its hard to tell who's behind them ;-)

Eh, sounds like its going to be kinda short then. Too bad. Still will be a great ride though, i'm sure.

Ravenguy98: while I don't have specific stats I wouldn't look for anything much longer than 3,000 feet...although in this case I hope I'm quite wrong!

Mammosh, never having been to SFStL or TX for coastering so far, I'd love a shot at this baby...Come on, CoasterCon. Guess I'll have to go get a few spins on Hulk/DD/Kraken tomorrow to smooth out the jones. Man, why did FL have to become the B&M showroom instead of the Intamin showroom?

Interesting that after years of nothing Intamin in California, we've suddenly hit the jackpot with 4 Intamin rides in a year's time. Now we're in a B&M drought.

Don't think of it as a short normal coaster, think of it more like you would Hypersonic.

Its more like that than anything else.

Yeah, think if it as a long launched coaster. ;)

I believe it will be an inverted Intamin Looper similar to V:TBC With a tophat

Ok Coasterholik2002, read the topic before you start posting. Both me and Mamoosh got the info right, it's not going to be inverted. It's a sit down. The details I have on the length is aroun 3100 ft. However, I don't know if that's accurate. It's somewhere around there though.

Mamoosh, please don't think I was wanting a ton of cerdit, I know you know what you are talking about. It's good to see another west coast coaster lover here. Thanks for filing in what I missed if I missed anything!

Remember X in the title, believe it or not, it will be there!

Chris Senn: no need to explain or apologize...its all good!

BTW...I heard it was going to be an Impulse or possibly an inverted Giga...is that so? 'Cause everyone knows Gigas are the BOMB! Hmmm....bomb...perhaps they can call it Glitter: The Ride.

OK...I'm done. Thanks...you were a wonderful audience. Remember to tip your servers.

That's REALLY hard to believe! I can't imagine what it would be in order to not have any confusion with X

LOL..That was a good one, Mamoosh. I think calling *Glitter* a bomb is being nice, actually.:)
