^It's something another person came up with on Twitter.

Ah. I'm not on Twitter, so I wouldn't know.

Interesting video, and glad they're being more forward on details. #RMCRacer

Are people still theorizing that idea?

Pretty sure he was just messing around. At this point, it's all conjecture on what enthusiasts think. #VortexOrWreckIt

My guess is Firehawk. I feel like Vortex has so much history that if it were coming down KI would have announced it earlier in the season.

Well if it's for a multi-year project, they don't have to. Plenty of examples of rides being removed for a multi year development. With Vortex's location, they can get PLENTY of groundswell for their announcement next year.

Given what they COULD do with that location, there is enough space to do something majestic. I don't think Giga, but I do think something good.

Firehawk, while unique, doesn't offer the same location perks. Plus, while it is not the best ride, it is much better then Vortex.

Has anyone considered Eurofighter for either spot?

Just an idea.

Let's face it, KI could remove any one of their coasters and it wouldn't be a loss.

Banshee and Mystic Timbers are both great though

Yeah.. I'm wondering why you think that.

Probably because I've been playing a lot of Planet Coaster recently and tried making one?

Good article on which it could be. My bet is Vortex. Like the article states, Arrow has long been gone and it's getting difficult to maintain the ride.

X-Flight.. errm Firehawk is still relatively "new," so I don't see that going anywhere. Although it has atrocious loading times.

I cast my vote on Firehawk. There's a reason only 3 of them were ever built.

BYE BEAST!

With Firehawk out of the way, it'll open much space for something gigantic! At least that's my guess...
