This made me laugh out loud. LOL. Too funny ???

 

 

Also hopefully Cyclone gets a new color scheme. I'd love red track and black supports.

How about black track and white supports it would sorter remind you of a starting flag. Better than it's current faded yellow and blue state.

Little thing called the Commonwealth Games will be on the Coast.

Of course didn't think of that.

I hope the Cyclone update works well. It seems like it's becoming unpleasant. Lap bar restraints would be great for those nice overbanked curves and the inversions.

Pretty sure cyclone's curves aren't overbanked.

If kumbak gives it sea viper trains... *shudder*

Anyone got any recent photos of the revamp of the ice-cream parlour and the work on the water fountain.

I know, but I couldn't think of a better word. Anyway, I think lapbars would be great for those banked hills.

I will be very annoyed if they recycle Viper's trains.

KingdaKa - "banked" ?

OTS restraints will make sense given the racing theme. I hope they're brand new trains and not SV's. 

I don't think the SV ones will fit the theme.

I think harnesses like AA's would fit in well with the racing theme, with the seatbelt style and all.

For what it's worth, "fan turn" is the most common word for what Cyclone has.

Really? Never heard that mentioned before. 

Looked it up and

Fan Turn or Fan Curve – A turn on a wooden coaster designed with a sweeping curve from the entrance to the exit of the turn. Fan curves are usually used to describe a change of direction of less than 90-degrees and turn is used to describe a change of direction of 90-degrees or more.

Banked Turn – Describes a section of track that is banked (laterally angled) while turning. Designers bank the turns on roller coasters to reduce the lateral G-forces.

I don't know if this has already been said or seen but I just picked this up about the cyclone.  

“Our new-look coaster will be an adrenaline-fuelled hot-lap complete with its famous loop track and music pumped through the headrests.”

 

 

New article by the GC Bulletin: http://m.goldcoastbulletin.com.au/news/bev-brock-gives-green-light-for-dreamworld-to-open-interactive-motorsport-precinct-in-her-late-partner-peters-honour/story-fnj94j0t-1227515388922

Not much in there we don't already know, though... still an interesting read, nonetheless.

Well it's confirmation we are definitely getting new trains, paintwork & theming. 

I hope the get the music pumping through the headrest right.  Most of the rides I have ridden with this feature have never got it right.  You almost need separate volume control on each seat so the customer can adjust it to their liking and a good quality set of speakers would help too.

I wonder what the soundtrack would be. Probably just a generic, high BPM rock track to fit the theme.

Cyclone will be repainted to match the v8 theme in the colour black and white. 

They will also be getting a van that will be in a different location of the park each day. they will sell the usual snacks like churros and popcorn.

I thought this was the colour scheme for the V8's.

Wow it's like Rollercoaster Tycoon 2: The Ride.

I hope the music is AC/DC or some really good rock music.

Any proof for this? I'd like to know if this is just your idle speculation or if it's actually real.
