Every time I've been there Skyhawk has ran fine. Other than the usual tweaking and spurts of downtime every normal new ride goes through, to my knowledge there hasn't been anything major wrong with Skyhawk...definitely not like MaXair.

Yeah, I was wondering that also. It actually sounds like some sort of 'rocket' ... fitting with the name very well.

For those who haven't heard, there will be an auction held for the "first" riders.

From Screamscape:

Neat! Can't wait to ride!

Looks really cool! I like how it swoops down right over the water. Can't wait to see more!

Actually, that's one of the exact problems I had. I know exactly what you mean, and it does indeed 'sway' a lot. I had no idea how to fix that, but now I do, thanks! I'll definitely remember that for my next one!

Thanks! I did a lot of playing around before I actually built a full coaster. I have a lot of unfinished coasters and random elements saved. I posted a reply in your Dragon Fyre thread regarding Newton2. Another thing I'd suggest is doing the same as I did, start out easy and build a simple coaster.

Fun coaster! I really liked the concept of two Immelmanns in a row! Keep working, I know it can be frustrating sometimes, but your coasters will progressively get better and better. Regarding Newton2, if you haven't come across them already, here are some tutorials that helped me out A LOT. Good luck and happy coaster building!

Turbo is an Intamin launched coaster. This is my first completed Newton2 coaster. I made it fairly simple because of that reason. I plan on working my way up to more difficult designs and layouts. I used some custom supports, but mostly all the default supports because they look ok, and also I just wanted to get this released ASAP. This a fairly intense coaster that has quick transitions just like those found on some modern Intamin coasters such as I305 and Maverick. Enjoy, and please comment!

Sounds good, thanks. Ironically both the Boomerang and Motocoaster were closed when I was there last year, so those are two credits I still need.

Would anyone happen to know how many people Darien Lake gets on average? I'm planning on going this Friday, but there is a Brad Paisley PAC Concert. I emailed DL and asked them about the crowds, and they replied that they are expecting 6,000 people in the park and 14,000 people at the concert. Is that 6,000 a lot for Darien Lake? How does that compare to an average Friday with no concert around this time? Will I be waiting in large lines all day? I don't want to drive 3 hours only to find that the park is ridiculously packed.

Anyone else excited about APB (All Points Bulletin)? I know I am...looks like a really fun game!

Sad news to wake up to. That's horrible.

I like the new track and think it looks better. Aesthetically it's more simple.

If Wildcat had a bit more leg room it would be good, but having your knees jammed is not fun at all. I can't ride that ride.

Trailer, demo reel, screen test, whatever. They're all a taste of the movie, regardless.

I'd like to point out that public transportation is used by thousands upon thousands of people for Pittsburgh Steeler games. There are so many people that use it, I had to change my normal gate to a different one because of the size of the crowd. They park across the river, then take a Gateway Clipper Boat to Heinz Field. Now granted they are only going the small distance of across a river, but it's still mass transit nonetheless.

^ Did you see the trailer for the new MK movie?! HOLY @#$%!!!

I can only imagine the airtime in the back coming off the MCBR!

Heh, didn't really look at the dates.

The seat belts on MF, TTD, Maverick, etc. seemed the same as every year to me. I'm 6'2" around 210lb and fit fine.

Awesome! I will definitely continue to follow this project!
