understandable, I’m just selfish lol

The one thing I’d like is for it to do two circuits instead of one, it’d only add like what 15-20 seconds to the cycle?

Twister II at Elitch Gardens. That thing was wobbling like it was made out of popsicle sticks and the trains shuffled massively through the entire layout. Still can’t believe I voluntarily got on that hunk of junk.

Whew that thing is hauling. Looks amazing.

I was looking at the trains, and the bicycle seat might have more support for your butt than older stand up trains. Combine that with the vest restraints and your upper body might be held and supported strongly enough where this is actually a natural feeling thing to do for a lot of people on...

I think it’s fine for Air Racers, it gives a sort of aircraft carrier vibe with the planes themselves really popping. Looks real bland for Gear Spin tho

That’s downright pornographic

Looks slow.

That’s a damn good question. I’m still rooting for a gerstlauer family launch coaster similar to firechaser express (or maybe even something like Verbolten) to replace Cedar Creek Mine Ride when’s its service life is up. It seems like a clear gap in their line up

For years they had Wildcat, which with its four person seater cars had to have similar capacity, and it was fine. At CP it’s not going to be star attraction or anything

Yeah I really don’t understand the practice of B&M dive coasters almost always having the near dead stop on the MCBR before another steep drop. The steep drops after are never that special where they’re worth killing the momentum that completely. Skip the extra “dive,” have minimal speed...

Disagree. They can graft it onto the Ultimate, giving it a third lifthill and extending its length to a nearly unbeatable record *with 10 whole inversions on top of it.* Franken-Ultimate.

It’s been interesting, I was more of an adrenaline junkie when I was younger, and now the last two years I’ve had significant chronic fatigue/long COVID symptoms. Before I definitely would’ve been in the “excited but don’t think this’ll be top ten for me” crowd to “this is kinda exactly what I...

I’d put my bets at 90% RMC and 10% titan track GCI. I think given the proximity to the closure date of the coaster and the fact that Hershey is pretty much outright stating that they have an announcement for a conversion of some type up their sleeve, RMC’s reply is part of getting the hype train...

Tbh the scariest part for me was just watching him climb the track, looked like a very easy way to slip and fall to one’s death. The jump itself seemed easy and low risk in comparison.

Hehehe thanks for teaching me; the teacher has become the student *bows*

I did not know that part

It’s simply that an electrical current is used to power the trains; if you look at the track on this coaster, there’s a grey rail running on top of the normal coaster track (circled in yellow here). An electrical current is run through this rail to power the coaster wheels and also to brake...

If you want just a hint, think about subway systems/the tube

Yeah, best hope for Alton is a Maverick style intamin blitz as it avoids the height issues
