Not bad at all! Seems it’s time to create a whole new list. To do in 2024: Renegade Prowler Gold Striker Outlaw Run Time Traveler Goliath (Great America) Maxx Force Shivering Timbers Zippin Pippin Hades 360

How has this thread gone on so long without mention of Colossus and Sik? One of those has been getting MUCH better reviews than the other, and it isn’t the one at Thorpe.

This just isn’t the case. They might use NoLimits Pro to create marketing renders of their rides, but nothing in terms of the ride layout is actually designed in NoLimits.

It looks like this guy's kid is punching him in the nuts...

This was a surprisingly difficult question for me to answer. Despite my relatively low credit count, I’ve been on a pretty wide swath of rides. The biggest gap I’ve identified is those new Vekoma thrill sit downs. That mostly boils down to there not being any of those in the US, which will be...

Anyone who’s visited that park since the Pandemic knows that it’s in no state for a large addition like that. They don’t even have enough money to remove T3, much less install anything at all, especially a new coaster.

You’ll never believe what the last post in the top 10 thread is

Voyage double down into the bowl Voyage triple down Voyage cross-lift hill Voyage camelback 1

The queue line appears to directly follow under the path of lift and turnaround. That’s an interesting use of space that I don’t think we’ve seen before yet!

Lightning Rod: The world’s first and only launched wooden coaster!

Appears to be decidedly not racing themed, which means we get to see another sexy Intamin custom zero car! I’m interested to see where they’ll go with the smaller form factor of the Hot Racer’s trains.

A few come to mind: Voyage out run Voyage spaghetti bowl Voyage return run Voyage “victory lap”

Back when I lived in an area with seasonal parks, coaster season was firmly April to October. Anything past that and parks are either opening with half the park closed, or aren’t open at all.

Ok, will do.

They might have opted for a train of lead cars because the lead cars all feature 2 sets of wheel assemblies, while the other cars only have 1. This could be to avoid an accident concerning the wheel assemblies like the other 2.

Tempering expectations is good, but also remember that if you're expecting to hate a ride your brain will look for reasons to hate it. Conformation bias and all that.

I had always assumed it was made in-house by Walt Disney Imagineering. There really isn't enough readily available documentation on these rides.

I’ve seen people complaining online about the length of the teaser. “I waited at my computer for half an hour, only to watch a 27 second video?” All I’m saying is you’ll be doing a lot more waiting for a 30 second ride once this opens…

100 - Steel Force 150 - Roller Skater 200 - Mako 250 - Raik 300 - Yukon Striker Father hit 300 the evening before and called first dibs on the Leviathan milestone. Yukon’s pretty neat too, I suppose.

Now that my Canada trip has come to a close and I’m about to start University, I have settled on my new, and perhaps final for 2023, top 20. Nothing new that I rode in Canada or New York quite cracked my top 20, but a straggler from my Florida trip has been added, and rerides on old favorites...
