Work continues at Paramount's Kings Island. PKI Zone recently posted new photos from the park. The photos include what looks like parts of the actual ride for Tomb Raider: The Ride.

What the heck are they doing to my Vortex?
Will the ride be ready for the park's opening in April?
Guys..... I'll admit it. It's a Topspin. The day has come. Just look at this picture.... http://www.small-business-webs.com/pkizone/construction42.jpg and compare it to the side blue print here that WAS on screamscape. It's a Top Spin. Or something like it. If you want the blue print you can email me. coasterkid31@hotmail.com

I thought KI finished painting Vortex at the end of the season.

Try Flight of Fear version 2.0: It's great!
IslandKG: is it me, or do you work at KI? If so, thanks for repainting my fav. steelie, and keeping those gorgeous colors!

So is Angelina Jolie going to be there for the opening of this thing? :) I can dream can't I?

This should be pretty cool either considering the amount of money and theming.  I just hope its ready for opening weekend. 

Now if only adults were allowed to ride the Haunted Mansion ride . . .

Thank GOD you guys did not do the aqua and pink! I would have hung myself from a loop! Ya know, I'd give anything to check bars on my baby! Wonder if they will do the "friends & family" thing again. I don't live close enough, or I'd apply for PT help (though with my luck I'd get stuck selling Rugrats candy). :)

Aqua and pink eh?  Sounds a lot like sea foam and coral like Xcelerator.

Does CCI know how to make a bad coaster?
PKI Fanatic,

Check this out...

and those top spins look different than the ride layout on Screamscape blueprints.

Guys, I just went by PKI today with my camera and took a certain part of the ride that had arrived over the weekend.  This certain part would blow PKI's surprise as to what TR:TR is.  As of now I will not post it on PKI Zone for awhile until I think it will be safe to do so.  I will say this, it is going to be an awesome ride :).

That just adds to the excitement!

Will it have any kind of dark ride theming?
-----------------
I plead to the 5th Amendment :).  I wiil not say any thing.  My mouth is shut.  I will say this, this part of the ride is in the park's parking lot.

PKI Fanatic,

Whatever. Do you have msn messenger so I could talk to you on-line.

Oh, please let it be a coaster. Last thing we need now is another piece of junk thrill ride. PKI, we want a good roller coaster.
