Mrpq Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Always thought about this. What do you think/ how would you feel if they "expanded' KK? By this I mean add more of a normal coaster layout after the tower. Thought it would be a cool idea and probably a pretty intense ride depending on what they did with it. I would vote for this type of conversion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Kaiser Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I think that would be pretty cool. My idea would be after the camel hump, have it fly over the path into some banked turns and small airtime hills in Rolling Thunder's unoccupied area.

ReptileGuy Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 That would be just amazing... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgr861509 Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I think it would be pretty cool, it would make it #1. Kingda Ka is in my top 3 at Great Adventure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KK456 Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 They'd need some heavy trims like Formula Rossa to do anything safe with that speed. Other than that issue I'd be all for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coasterharrison'98 Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Honestly to do anything besides the top hat they would have to install some major trims like stated above. In my opinion that would really nuder the experience of the ride, it's best to leave your audience speechless then oh that first part was really awesome but then the ride slowed down and kinda got boring...

owtoty Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Or they can convert the camel hump into the world's tallest loop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANofNJ Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'd rather them just remove the 1 trick pony then spend any more $$$$ oj Ka. Save the $$$$ for a giga coaster that the park desperately needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro1118 Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I'd rather them just remove the 1 trick pony then spend any more $$$$ oj Ka. Save the $$$$ for a giga coaster that the park desperately needs. Desperately? We have a B&M hyper, Intamin PnP nearly 200ft and a launched strata. How is a giga coaster that necessary? Anyway, I would not want an expanded Ka layout with the current trains. Also, if it were to be expanded, I would like a layout not reliant on inversions. And as mentioned, it would need to be trimmed. A Cheetah Hunt-style layout would make the layout a lot more diverse and managable than a crazy I305 copy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrpq Posted September 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 Yeah I wound actually rather not have inversions at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericthewanderer Posted September 14, 2015 Report Share Posted September 14, 2015 They should have a super-sized "spaghetti bowl" after the top hat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Kang Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Maybe the second hill could be moved up to like 300 feet and we build like a traditional Giga after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
