Rail Blazer is looking great! So excited to have this new type of coaster at my home park! On another note: just an observation, all of CGA's rollercoaster lift hills (with the exception of Psycho Mouse) all point in approximately the same direction, is there a reason for this, surely it can't be a coincidence.

All of those new concepts look really cool! What are the crowds like this week at the parks?

Supposedly all that land was once owned by Lockheed (Lockheed Martin) for a missile development and testing site. Once they got news Disney was coming to town they realized that wasn't going to be a great idea anymore.

Hey guys! Planning a trip to the park sometime in the next five Sundays, or possibly the Monday before Thanksgiving. Just curious as to the least crowded days to go and any known ride closures we can expect. Thanks for your help!

It isn't SIX FLAGS at all. It is the engineering and construction firms (RMC in this case) that provide the safe and competent design, materials and structure. SIX FLAGS has no say in what makes up those elements.

Bump Bump Bump! Edit: ^ just saw that, thanks and sorry! But you guys get props for being so quick.

^Just curious, where/what is the difference in designs?

^ There are now 2 vertical supports for the seats as opposed to the previous design's 4. I would think to keep things nearly equal they would have to beef up the new style chassis. I doubt that the new restraints dictated the new chassis design. Either way, I'm kind of a fan of the new train/restraint design for the inverts. Hopefully get to try it out someday.

I never knew drop towers had counter weights. Honestly kind of stumped on the purpose, can anyone shed light on exactly how/why they are used?

^ Sounds great! Thanks again guys.

^Thanks! I was not aware there was a single-rider line. Defnately will NOT be going NYE, was thinking either tomorrow the 30th or Sunday the 5th as you suggested.

I'm visiting Orlando this week and need my Transformers credit, any ideas how the lines are this week? I've done both parks to their entirety before so I won't be buying an express pass. Probably just a two park 1 day ticket, will it be worth it to enjoy the parks for a little bit? Thanks for any recommendations!

^I'll be going Sunday after work as well. Probably wont be there till 9-ish though. Shoot me a PM if you want to meet up! I made it to the park opening day, so why not closing night!

^ nice! I sent you a PM with my #. Let's meet up.

Out at haunt now! Breeze keeps dispersing all the fog some music and lightingthat I feel may be missing. But other than that another great night! (BTW, here by myself if any TPR wanna meet up?! Got my Goldstriker swagger on, black and Greg fleece.
