--THE FOLLOWING IS FROM THE AKCS/CGP PRESS CONFERENCE HELD ON 1-31-04 AT 7:30PM EST--

Hello all and welcome to the AKCS press room. Today some big news is coming to the public, and on behalf of CoasterGuy27 Productions [CGP] and AKCS I wish to anounce the developement of a new "new" ride.


First off, as some of you know, there were plans to build an entire amusement park for CGP, but this idea was short lived. The executive board at CGP had second thoughts and terminated the plan for having their own amusement park. Many reasons were involved in this decision: low budget meant there wasn't enough funds for the great rides planned, building restrictions meant space was insufficient for the park, along with many other details. CGP will deliver this spring, however, with a brand new ride.


Now on to the coaster. CGP has allowed me to make public only parts of the design for purposes of secrecy. The coaster will themed with a large center structure as the base for the theming. The riders will live the story that the coaster is based on. Details about the theming aren't to be made public but the basic idea is to ride right through a war.


The layout of the coaster itself is to be very compact in design. It will have numerous inversions and fast turns. The ride will also stand about 3-4ft at its highest point. Whether it will be sit-down, inverted, flying, etc. isn't to be made public as of yet.


The project is to begin construction soon after the completion of Ninja. The planning of this ride is already underway. More information and 3D renderings of the coaster will be made public in time.


At this time I will answer any questions about this coaster or CGP.


Q: When do you expect this ride to be completed?
A: Construction will begin after Ninja's completion. After that it is not known how long exaclty it will take to finish but it shoujld be done in the spring.


Q: What elements should be expected in this coaster?
A: All I can say is that it will have more than one inversion along with a tight and twisting layout.


Q: Will this coaster be launched?
A: I have been told that the coaster will most likely be a launched coaster, but that is not definate at this time.


Q: What type of trains are we talking about with this ride?
A: At this point it is nt certain, but a sit-down train will probably be used.


Q: About Ninja, when should that be finished.
A: Ninja's construction has slowed but hasn't stopped. Expect it to be done within the next week.


Q: Can you tell us anything more about the theming of the ride?
A: I can tell you that it will have a battle going on during the ride. There will be one main center piece along with more theming scattered around the coaster. I will answer one more question.


Q: What will be the name of the new ride?
A: The new coaster will be named "Kismet", Islamic for the will of God.


Thank you all for coming. On behalf or CGP, goodnight.
