  1. But chiller is two coasters... and has two launches... and, heck, it's two credits, so why should you only count it as one?
  2. Wow. Why do the rails bend so sharply?
  3. http://www.cedarpoint.com/public/fun/webcams/webcam.cfm?chip=3
  4. They're trying to cover it up. Do you think people would still come if they knew that Top Thrill Dragster, Millennium Force, and Raptor were gone?
  5. I understand the phrase "jumping the shark", I just was thinking needle or spool, I didn't thingk "thread"
  6. As long as they don't start tearing down Disney World.......
  7. Wes, do you have that picture of TTD flying off the tracks?, You know thats the reason they are taering it down JEFF Wasnt this locked?. Wes must be bored Well the places where the track end are pretty obvious, but the sky is really well done! Check this out! Yep, photoshop is good.
  8. No! It's because Ohio law states that no amusement park can have more than 16 roller coasters. So they're taking down dragster in order to legally put in the new one!
  9. Oh no this is so sad! I grabbed this image off the webcam! They're tearing this thing down so fast! How are they doing it?
  10. lol Scorpion is only the most intense ride in Florida... IMO I guess But then look who's talking... of course you would say that!
  11. Well it's all a matter of opinion I think. The Incredible Hulk Coaster has a really amazing layout, and the launch is a ton of fun, but you feel a lot of force in all of the inversions, and I think it would have been a bit better if the vertical loops in particular had less force at the top. The first time I rode that, between the cobra roll and the loop, I blacked out quite a bit. Not that it was a problem, but I like seeing things upside down and I couldn't see anything. Hulk is not forceful. I don't care what row you ride it in, it's just not as forceful as Kumba or Montu (trimless, which is rare). SheiKra was soooo incredibly forceless that it wasn't thrilling at all. I think it's funny you just dissed my favorite coaster. Sheikra was the first ride I ever blacked out on. I never blacked out on Kumba or Montu (and I like the trim on Montu, it slows the ride down and gives the second loop more hangtime) but I black out on Hulk all the time. I just like feeling the inversions. The Immelman on Sheikra is my favorite inversion of all time.
  12. I like The Big Brag. It's so nostalgic, going back and reading through that.
  13. I hate to wish ill will on anyone, but for comments like that, I hope your home is the first to go when a "show" does arrive one day. Have you, and others not watched any coverage of disastrous storms in the past? And did you not live through Wilma last year? I know for certain that my Mom lived without power and fresh water for a week or so after that one. That's just a power outage, but enough to mess up your life for a while. Do you people not quite grasp what it'd be like to literally lose everything you own? Wow. Sorry for the rant, but stuff like this still amazes me. What I hate is when people get annoyed when I say that I like storms. I lost power for TWO weeks last year after Hurricane Wilma, I lost three trees, my room was flooded, I lost a lot of carpet in my house, I had to get a new roof, and the car got a bit scratched up. I know what it's like to have a major storm. And I look forward to hurricane season every year. I LOVE hurricanes. Ernesto was such a let down. I'm not saying I want powerful winds and lots of damage, I just want a lot of rain, dark clouds, lots of thunder and some loud gusts of wind. It's my favorite type of weather. And Ernesto wasn't even exciting. At least I had a day with no sun, but that's all. The least it could have done was rainied for the last 24 hours, but all I got was about 5 minutes.
  14. This was the worst storm ever to hit south florida. Such an incredible let down. I was hoping for a show but all I got was a little rain.
  15. Are there pictures of this anywhere?
  16. It's way too easy to find stolen videos on YouTube. http://youtube.com/watch?v=87SYUeggOb8&mode=related&search= I was hoping this was an original video too
  17. Here's my closet. Isn't it so neat and tidy?
  18. Ok, now THAT is really cool! http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/files/room01_459.jpg How did you make that?
  19. That's odd... I don't think Shwarzkopf loops were that intense...the double loops look pretty intense, but it's mainly the force at the top that I don't like. Since B&M's clothoid loops are much tighter at the top, thats what I don't like.
  20. Umm.... why pizza pies? if you just said pies it would have been correct. Even back when pluto was a planet... there were never two p's at the end...
  21. I really hope this isn't an Aquatrax. Because I want to laugh at everyone who said it was. I'm making a bet right now... NOT AquaTrax....
  22. My school is too lazy to have a day to allow students to come to school and buy/trade used books, so now they are making us buy them off of ECampus. Ecampus SUCKS!
  23. Right now I'm thinking it's almost definitely a launch coaster. As for the two rows of footers next to each other, all I can think of is: 1)Double Launch (preffered) 2)A launch with the brake run right next to it 3)A dueling launch (least likely) I havent been paying too close to the pictures so I have no idea what the layout might be like. I don't think it is going to be record breaking, I think it will just be a coaster with a very unique layout. And honestly, theres absolutely nothing wrong with that. If it's a great ride, I dont care what records its broken. If anything is new, my guess is that it's a new seating style for the train or different restraints. But I don't see why a lot of people expect this coaster to be some bizarre type of coaster they've never seen before. If it's got a great layout that is original, that's great! Maybe they'll be introducing a new inversion or element.
