It's ok, the GP will still call it a wooden ride like Mine Ride and Gemini.

Cedar Point has released another teaser for the ride via their Facebook page.
Still using plural phrasing. They're coming. They're wild and unruly.
Still not showing or talking about anything we havent seen so far.
So, my major question is this: Why the use of Plural phrasing? Are we getting a secondary cred for the Point in 2018 to add in a lost (Wildcat and Disaster Transport) family cred? Are they referencing what will be happening with Hurler?

Seems like it. I haven't seen any new construction there besides this. Unless if they're going for a new theme to this revamp, it could very well likely be a second cred of any kind.

Or maybe Mean Streak will simply have a new, plurally intrinsic name? For instance, "Steel Stampede", while the name of a singular ride, would also imply a group of running horses. "Outlaw Run" too is themed to a group of bandwagon riders trying to outrun bandits. "Swarm" and "Fury 325" are also implications of a large swarm of insects/aliens.
Also here's the video:

If someone could get a good side profile shot of that drop, we can estimate the height and speed from that.
My money's on 218 feet, 80 MPH, 4 inversions, ~5500 feet long, 90 degree main drop.
Tallest, fastest, longest, steepest RMC.
And most inversions too.
One can only imagine what the airtime of that drop in the back will be like.
================
As for how the design was created, I imagine the following.
Alan Schilke hangs up the phone call with CP brass. Eminem's "One Shot" begins playing in the background as he goes to his stash and retrieves a baggie labeled "USE ONLY IN EVENT OF MEAN STREAK CONVERSION". Consuming the contents, he boots up NL2. Fade to sunrise; Schilke is finishing the layout, giggling like a madman.
(Seriously, though, can someone hook me up with that guy's dealer? Dude's got the really good stuff.)
