This coaster looks brilliant! with the massive air time hill and the same top hat as TTD but 15 feet higher and 8mph faster it looks superb!

Wow, looks really intense now!

[Satch]

any idea what the theme will be? as it seems all rocket coasters are going the same way as TTD. ie cars, racing...

[coaster_chris]

Yes, It isn't going to be a race theme or what ever....
As you can see from artists impresions, it's going to be a Jungle theme! Hopefully it will look cool!!!

Well 5/7 Rocket coasters are themed to racing, Im glad Kingda Ka is going for some kind of originality...although its right next to a parking lot so I can't see it being completely true to the Artists impression.

[Satch]

good to hear SOME parks *cough*Alton,i hope youre listening*cough* take a different approach to the theme

Hm.... These Coasters just keep getting higher and higher! I wouldn't be suprised if a plane crashed into one of them one day!

lol just picture it, your on a plane and you keep trying to dodge these Strata Coasters.
