What park do you think really needs a new coaster? I think Ioa should get a coaster in the jurrasic park area, Seaworld Orlando needs a new ride, so does Frontier City, The Great Escape, and Astroworld

None of those! Marine Land up here in Canada needs a big a fast terrain woodie, or a rocket coaster to compliment Dragon Mountain's mounstrous proportions yet lame track layout haha

Dragon Mountain don't look that bad, there are a lot of worse arrow coasters! Is it rough? And by the way a terrain woodie would be the best choice or a terrain invert.

I totally agree, a huge, fast, terrain woodie at marineland would be kick ass. But, instead there building a 200 million dollar fish tank.


And PCW could use a good Intamin mega coaster over top of the pond near minebuster.

200 million? [confused]You could build like 10 rollercoasters with that! [V] And I dont think PCW is that bad a park. Why do people dislike it?

SFDL needs a new coaster more than any other park mentioned in this thread so far IMO. Their newest coaster was SROS, which opened May 15th 1999...EVERY Six Flags park has gotten a new coaster since then, including parks that are owned by SF such as Enchanted Village, Great Escape, and La Ronde.

^ I guess you know how i feel about bgt not getting a new coaster since 1999 either, not counting Cheetah Chase

But the enchanted village, great escape, and frontier city rides stink.

CP has 16, most ever, and they need more! A giant rocket coaster that will kick kingda's aff combined with some MF and SROS. Lol, would be nice, but they need the money from castaway bay first for all of that, lol. [:p] BTW, I'm kidding in case you're yelling at me

BGT is getting SheiKra, SFDL is still getting nothing...and if you just not count certain coasters, then all parks havn't gotten a coaster since '99 - Cheetah Chase counts [;)]

But the enchanted village, great escape, and frontier city rides stink.

They still have gotten new coasters, thats better than nothing.

Cheetah Chase shouldn't count because its a wild mouse piece of relocated crud.

Geauga Lake needs that "rumored" hyper that was supposed to be built 4 years ago...

I Think Kennywood Park needs a great floorless or inverted looper (Built by B&M) to take advantage of the parks terrian which is currently only occupied by the Phantom's Revenge & Thunderbolt...now that would kick ass.....
This park to me is most deserving of a coaster than any other IMO, it's the only park I know that has not recived a new coaster for a 9 YEAR PERIOD..1991-1999 and then comes The Exterminator Wild Mouse in 1999 and then the Phantom's Revnge in early May of 2001. I love the Revenge, but the park lacks a great looper.


Also I think one of the most beautiful parks I have ever been to (Busch Gardens Williamsburgh) desrves a coaster....more than likely a floorless. You see IntaminFan397, my friend, Busch Gardens Williamsburgh haven't recived a coaster since March, 27th of 1999....which is a tad-bit longer than May 15th of 1999 (only by 2 months, but none the less....) But I do agree with you that Six Flags Darien Lake is also a park long over-due for a new coaster.......Just that Kennywood Should Get One First IMO..

Geuaga Lake could definitely use the hyper. However, my vote goes to Busch Gardens Williamsburg. They have not built anything since 1999, and have lost Drachen Fire and Wild Maus in the proccess. Maybe a nice Intamin Hyper along the perimeter of the park... that would be really cool. Or, dare I say, a Gravity Group mega-woodie. But, being the biased ACEer that I am, I just can't resist a good Intamin or GG. Another park that needs another coaster is Michigan's Adventure. They haven't built since 1998, they have all the room in the world, and they could be one of the best parks in the country if they had more coasters.

Indeed but Laronde was purchased by Six Flags in 2001, so we where a bit lucky ;) we get rides every year like other sf parks

SFDL started out getting a new coaster every year when six flags bought it. They think the park is set becasue of SROS but little do they know that ride sucks more than any other ride in the park.

If you seen the park, you would know what I mean. It was empty all season long...

I would love to go to an empty park with as many rides as Geauga Lake! But I don't understand, why does Ohio get all the greatest rides? It's cold and bitter 8 months out of the year and those parks are rarely ever open, I think Florida needs a new park.
