YES I think they would all be absolutely thrilled if it were to close

No Santa Cruz is a whole different batch of crazy . . . what you ask could be worse than Prudential? A city full of environmental activists and rich people who want unobstructed views . . . you know just like San Diego

The city of Santa Cruz itself doesn't have any height restrictions on the Boardwalk that I know of, remember the original plan for Double Shot was over 200ft. however the residents are another story . . . The height of Double Shot was lowered to match the highest element already found at the SCBB the flagpole on the casino building which from what I have read is also too tall in many SC residents eyes . . . so I would think it is safe to say that we will never see anything at SCBB over 125ft . . .

Well if the Brits can do it on Nemesis why can the Americans do it on Medusa

Great America hasn't had a real coaster open in over 10 years. You guys have no right to bitch about the name of it. They could call the thing "Coaster Man Dumping Waffle" and it would still be the best thing to happen to the park in most of your lifetimes. So, STFU about the name, already. Seriously. --Robb "Nuff said" Alvey BEST COASTER NAME EVER!!!! Seriously though Robb is 100% correct and if you don't like the name then call it "Coaster Man Dumping Waffle" I like the name Stampede and I may even call it that

Not too many but it's more than enough Boomerang : KBF Boomerang : SFDK Invertigo: CGA Deja Vu : SFMM

Trash heck give the riders paintball guns

It was Iron Wolf at Six Flags Great America

How about the horn from an oil tanker you can't get much louder than that - The trains should also be themed to cars and have horns as well that will honk as they tear around the track along with sound effects of crashes and sirens blasted out of strategically placed speakers around the coaster, heck lets use the old speakers from the pictorium - Road Rage could be it's name

Sad to see two Schwarzkopf Coasters and at least one Schwarzkopf flat rotting away I hope RD doesn't see this

Link Wow this is starting lo remind me of what Zonga looked like under construction

I am somewhat excited about this remember what B&M Inverts were like in the early years and then Raptor came along, this could be a similar scenario

Yeah I was thinking the same thing

Oh look they haven't forgotten about LLDOD - The restraints look interesting is this something new or is something just missing ?

Given the wild history of this area I am actually a bit shocked that there was never a park constructed to outdo Coney Island here in Humboldt

Here is some random crap from the long lost Playland At The Beach once in San Francisco that the bastards tore down for condos

Exactly my version as well. Same here I always envisioned an Anton Schwarzkopf looking character

I have been collecting it from various places for years now

Id like to shove one of these pieces I have from Taz up their ass

This was a piece of the anti rollback system installed on Taz's Texas Tornado that was removed when it relocated to California

Keep in mind that the total height may also include any flag poles or signs at the top of the lift similar to the one on top of the Grizzly's lift

While it may not look like much this little block of wood was once part of the legendary Wildcat at Idora Park

No kidding fix what you have before adding more stop sacrificing the entire park for the coaster crown and other assorted world records for Gods sake

Is it just me or does it look like this coaster is going to chew up wheels and spit them out if they are already looking like this

I agree Huss rides seem to be having quite a bit of issues lets not forget to include the Timber Tower fiasco . . . I have never seen Voodoo closed but Firefail seems to have serious issues, I wonder if it had the same issues at GL
